Vertigo Studios Contact?

I sent him an email. It's probably dead but one never knows until you try.

Appreciate that!
Redmill - I was looking for my next project, but since you have these converted (and if given permission to release), I look forward to flying those aircraft in 2020/2024 someday!
Aside - I do have my next project selected. A FSX conversion (with permission) of a fine British taildragger . More details coming soon.

Sorry to revive and old thread but I can't find anything anywhere else. I've been trying to get my own copy of VS's P-36 flying in MSFS. Did anyone get anywhere on getting permission to help others with this?
Looks like I never replied but yes the email bounced back. No idea if he will ever get the message.
I did some beta testing for Vertigo Studios (primarily on its RV-8) and my contact point was Dean Greasley. There were some online news stories about FSX releases by Vertigo Studios referring to Dean Greasley as the "Project Manager". I also know Dean was in the UK when I exchanged emails with him. Is it possible that this Dean and Dean from DC Designs are the same person? That's all I got.

Have no idea what the correct protocol is for this situation.
Saying that, if Redhill did release his conversions for the P-36 and F8F as MSFS port-over models (for free use to all), and gave full credit to Vertigo Studios in the ReadMe, wouldn't that be ok?
Given that:
* he has made every effort to gain permission, in fact no one seems to have a contact for them
* Vertigo Studio's webpage no longer exists
* The models would be for free use, properly credited
* And their doesn't seem to be anywhere one can but the original aircraft.
Just wondering.

I would love to have some of the Vertigo models in MSFS, in fact I have a conversion of the Bearcat. But, if the models are still being sold, I'm afraid you can't.
It's a bummer, but it is what it is.

An option to try is to get in touch with Robert Ferraro@PCAviator and have him forward your concerns/requests to Vertigo
cheers!
Maybe Redmill or somebody else knowledgeable on doing .mdl file conversions could work up a tutorial for making FSX aircraft flyable in FS2020/2024. Simmers could convert a FSX payware plane they already own for their own personal use and it wouldn't infringe on any creator's copyright restrictions. I've done FS9-to-FSX conversion and it's a tedious process; I imagine even more so when going from FSX to FS2020/2024.

What a good idea!! I've tried one freeware package (don't remember what it was) but it simply doesn't work.

They didn't release it, but authorized a freeware developer to convert it to MSFS.

I'm pretty sure DC Designs is Dean Crawford.
