Vladimir Zhyhulskiy's IL-78 Midas Revisited

Hamza Omar

Greetings,

Like all of his other excellent freeware, I frequently fly Vladimir Zhyhulskiy's somewhat underrated Ilyushin-78 Midas. The package also includes the base IL-76 Model with a few repaints and a paintkit. Made for FS9, It can also be ported over to FSX, but the result a bit buggy. Some gauges do not work and those which do result in sporadic crashes on my FSXSE. The aircraft is also invisible when viewed with programs like FSRecorder, AirTrafficFX and AI Formation Toys. Now with the advent of 64-bit and most of the Simming community moving onto P3Dv4, I think it is time for the FSX/P3D Native conversion of the beast. Unfortunately I have no experience on the process of conversion so it would be great if some of you folks could make this possible so this Soviet-era beast could once again grace the virtual skies. I also understand that a good deal of time goes into this so for now this merely remains a plea. Thank you for your time.
