SSW F84-F Thunderstreak ("The Hog") ready for the sky.

Very many thanks for your beautiful work Alessandro, it's such a shame my CPU is not up to handling the Hog. I've tried the reduced vc textures available and reduced the main textures as well, but it won't fly for more than a few minutes without crashing the game, even with all sliders well to the left. Nevertheless, I'm going to get some painting done after Christmas and eventually get a new machine so I can enjoy this to the full.

Happy Xmas to all

Thanks Dave,we are trying to understand why your CPU cannot handle the Hog,it seems as is the only bad report until now.

Anyway:

We have just solved the DX10 darkness of cockpit glass in FSX,and also for FSX-DX9 version the bug is fixed,now the canopy looks more bright. We patched also the P3D 1.4 and 2.0 version. We are working to fix some minor bugs,I think monday a patch for all the versions will be available.
 
It´s great to fly this iconic fighterbomer in FSX/P3DV2. I´m really looking forward to the additional repaints ;-)

That's very good news! Grazie mille!

I've used this magical "RADitor" tool on your F84F to get closer to the aircraft in the preview windows, and in the sim. I've put 8 instead of 15.34 and it looks like this:

According to the RADitor wiki page "Aircraft designers sometimes face the problem that their aircraft shows too small (or too big) in the rotating preview within FS. This size is controlled by the radius set within the MDL file, but there is no way to directly set it when modelling. The compiler calculates it for you, but unfortunately is sometimes wrong." (works fine with the F-104 too)

Hi all,
Just a little update: yesterday we released a patch to fix the black canopy for DX10/FSX users,fixed also the black canopy for P3DV2. All the versions (P3D/V2/FSX) have now a more light canopy texture,many users reported that the canopy glass was a little bit dark.

In addition to base liveries,I'm preparing a "ten pack" for free,including some ANG liveries and others..
Here's a little preview (Ohio ANG):

The Canopy almost seems too light now. It disappears in some angles. Can't please everyone I guess. ;-) I would like to see more exterior reflections on it.

You can keep v1.0 exterior with the new v1.2 interior, it just works... But not sure it's such a brilliant idea...

Before I attempt to install and activate this beauty, I need someone to clarify the purchase process.

According to the install/activation instructions one pays in advance using Paypal, right? And they payment is according to the price list, right?

Does the VAT @ 22% apply to everyone, or just to EURO ZONE Countries?? The reason I ask is that the instructions state "TO ALL PRODUCT WE WILL CHARGE A VAT OF 21%".

So, if I make a payment is it 25 Euro or 30.50 Euro? AND, how does that convert to USD?? OR can I expect Paypal to make the conversion for me?? :dizzy:

I'm just struggling a little with the process and want to make sure I know what to expect.

Thanks

According to our "prices list and promotions" page of our website,in the final notes you can read that "VAT APPLIES ON EURO ZONE COUNTRIES ONLY".
So your payment will be VAT-FREE.
25 euros are 34.21 USD.
Choice is yours,you can pay both ways.
Enjoy,
Alessandro.
