Gentlemen,

Again for your info,
trying to due practice Catches and launches,
once Tail hook retracted it will not re-extend :salute: tryed several time and rebooted
just me?
 
Check your air.cfg to see if it now references v1.1 at the top.

I am half way through the new install (work requires the rest waits till the weekend). While I did "uninstall" v1.0 per Dean's instructions, I still have the 1.0 aircraft after running the 1.1 installer which, I expect is because I should have also deleted the F9F folder itself.
 
Expat, I also did the uninstall exactly as prescribed and cleaned out the leftover folder from my simobjects/aircraft folder. I also have v 1.0 listed in my cfg file. I also have the issue with the tailhook reset not working as mentioned(it retracts but can be redeployed on the same flight). I've scoured the model and only found this issue and the left aileron trim tab still suspended-detached from the left aileron below the trailing edge surface(the right side was fixed). The latter issue is only visible from the VC and not noticeable as was the right side unless you look back at the left aileron in full deflection or adjust your view outside the VC. Deano knows about that and the tailhook and left aileron trim tab issue and is looking into both. The other wide range of fixes is outstanding and the model seems to run smoother on my system than the previous version.
 
Yes as directed uninstall deleted folder and extra paints before new ins// VERTIGO STUDIOS oh and added Vstudio paints
this is what my config states at the top
// GRUMMAN F9F-5/P PANTHER
// VERSION 1.0.05012011
// FSXtall

This is the same thing I have after complete uninstall and new install of 1.1. And also no tailhook extension after initial trap. I'll try again after I play golf today....temperatures here in Maine will be in the 80s (f) today! Gotta get outside.
 
Does anyone know what the 1.1 changes are? Haven't seen a list. Perhaps will try installing to a new folder and have a poke around . .
 
Although changes was made to the .cfg file, we didnt alter the header in the .cfg

However, when running the installer if you see 1.1 then you have indeed installed the 1.1

Please note if support is required, its best to always open a support ticket. We simply don't have the man power to monitor third party sites and I don't want to have to keep jumping from forum to forum to help customers.

We have in place forums for general conversation at vertigo studios and also a fully effective support system.

Expat, on our forums we have a list of corrections displayed.

The Tailhook will be correct.
 
Great service, great product

Thanks Deano

I was quickly informed, and while I slept my order was regenerated.
Downloaded and installed in 10 minutes. However, the test-flight took over an hour - I could not stop!
Kudos to Deano and VS for great service for a great product, now even better.

:applause::applause::applause:
 
Just wanted to say that with the update she is sweeter than ever to look at and fly. Trapped aboard CV-32. Like others, I got the hook to retract but it would not extend again when attempting another arrested landing. Thanks Deano for your work and continuing commitment to us Panther pilots.
 
I addressed the tailhook problem via a support ticket and received a satisfactory response. Thanks to Deano and crew for correcting that glitch and whatever else has come up.
 
Hello Deano,

This morning I realized that I still have no mail from Vertigo with information on how to get the patch. What should I do? Am I the only one or are you still busy contacting all Panther owners?

Regards,

I'm in your files as Stickshaker
 
Hi , re tailhook , i have more decoding to do on that , and will likely end up needing to redo that from scratch, there are a number of interacting gauges and partcodes vying for control of the tailhook and so far i have had to go through the code line by line to find them all and its time consuming.

It will be resolved within the next three weeks as the release schedule permits.

Best CJ
