Wing42's Boeing 247D released

Hello, everyone!

I'll get back to you. Well, this B247D is absolutely amazing and what is offered for this price.:applause: For me personally flying in the premier league in Fs2020. And so I painted this Swissair livery, well, simple but handsome. I don't want to withhold the pictures from you here. I'm really excited about the AH DC-3 that's supposed to be released, muhaaa.:wiggle:

More time today on this sim. I can still here the occasional phasing. What is noticeable is the lack of 360 degree exterior sounds which may or may not be evident in the videos. The internal and external modeling is very good. Although I cannot comment on the accuracy without comparing real world pictures. It certantly has a lot of animations and features.

I wish i could say i've tried, seen and heard it by now but sadly i can't. Atm there seems no way i can get the Boeing to load up. MSFS just comes to a hold during the loading phase. No crash, no ctd, just stops all together and i can only left click the MSFS icon on the tray and close it. That's all...

This is about the first time something like this is happening with my MSFS setup. I removed the Boeing folder from my Community folder and installed it again. No change, also happens no matter which livery i select. All other aircraft i have load up fine. Reading the fora it also seems i am the only one with this problem. Atm, other than maybe download the file again, i have no idea how to get the Boeing to load without MSFS throwing the towel into the ring. Bummer! :dejection: (maybe i should've shut up about the phasing effect....;-)
 
Javis,

... a shot in the dark ... could it be that something was reset on your MSFS instillation after the latest WU 8? I'd check Options/General Options/Sound and make sure there is no conflict with the system default device selections.

I saw yesterday that my "fauna display" was displaying on the World map view, and to fix this I had to go to open filters at the bottom of the world map.
Fauna densities are controlled by Options/General Options/Traffic. Mine was somehow set to 10 instead of 0.
Now the customer has to go to (2) different places in MSFS to fix one little problem!

Disclaimer: could be something in your community folder ...... I get so tired of hearing that spouted out as the cure for everything .... :banghead:
 
Options worth a look.
After SU8 I was flying & thought the scenery looked 'cr***y, then I checked & my Graphics settings had been reset from High to Low/Medium mix by the WU.
Not the 1st time either.

I extracted the 247 to a separate desktop folder. Then copied the boeing 247 directly to the community folder.
 
Javis, also, try just leaving the room and letting the flight load for a really really long time. The 247 took a LONG time to load my first time (like 5 or 10 minutes), and looked like it was stalled on the progress bar. I think it may have been doing a first-time compile of the WASM stuff... The Aerosoft bizjet has the same issue, takes forever the first time.

Amazing plane, but the author really needs a Ctrl-E option for people who just want to try it before learning the full details.

(* I suggest leaving the room because we all know progress bars go even slower when you're watching them. Plus the wait is frustrating when you don't see it move.)
 
Denny,

Turn off Realistic Engine Start on the clipboard under Simulation Options and she's a Ctrl-E aircraft.

I had the long loading too, first time I just gave up and shut down the sim, second time I waited and waited and then waited a little more and it finally finished. :very_drunk:
 
Gentlemen thank you very much for your comments and suggestions, highly appreciated ! :encouragement:

Before anything else i'll load up the Boeing again and then go walk my dog. I do have a feeling i might be in for a nice surprise when i return because i have never seen this particular behaviour of MSFS before so good chance it IS the long loading time. It certainly is not like a 'normal' shutdown or CTD. I'm going for the 247 waiting for me on the runway with engines running when i return.

Thank you all again for your help ! :ernaehrung004:

Cheers,
Jan

P.S. And a big thanks to DangerousDave who just helped me thru Webex to Log-In normally again and use the message editor again with full functionality. Thanks a lot, Dave ! :applause:

Suggestion: Because your engines will stop if you idle them below 1000rpm for more then a couple of secs - slew it up to some 2000 ft , unslew , raise the gear......and enjoy..... - your 1st engine start will be ...... let's say finicky
 
Hello everyone!

Here is part 2 of the Boeing 247D in the fictional Swissair colors als HB-ISL. I'll try to upload them in the next few days. Because i have to orientate myself a little with the folder structure from Fs.2020. So that it works then.

Bingo !!

I just took off and flown the Boeing 247D for a while ! But certainly not as predicted, i didn't even have to walk my dog.... ;)

I'd say very funny, odd and remarkable that has happend here. I loaded up MSFS (one thing i notice lately is that the default funeral music has stopped playing during the loading... i see we have a choice now between 'legacy, 1 or 2'.... ) and selected the 247 which still shows in the hangar because of my earlier trials. Selected my usual testflight airport and hit the 'Fly-Now' button. All set to go and walk my dog i noticed the blue loading slider moving surprisingly fast, not seen that before during the 247 loading. Before i knew it, out of th blue, there's the Boeing at the runway threshold with running engines ! I hear my dog say " well, that's it as far as my walk is concerned, right ?.... "

How about that, huh....:dizzy:

No idea what happend before, no idea what happend now..... It's a mysterious aeroplane, i think that much is true.

During flight i got a bit of feeling that it might be a tad too agile for a relatively 'big' aircraft and i think the engines sound is rather strange. There's deffinately at least phasing going, outside as well as inside, but the effect is surprisingly short, where in other soundsuites that suffer from this annoying effect the sequences are much longer.

Anyway, i think Wing42's Boeing 247 is quite an amazing product certainly worth to seriously go thru the manual ( the manual alone is a masterpiece already ! ) because i think that's where the true beauty of this product lies. A big thank you and applause to the developers ! :applause: :applause:

Thanks much again, gents, happy Boeing247 camper now ! :cool:
 
So glad you got up and running, Javis! I'm guessing it had mostly finished compiling the files on your previous load, so it should go fast from now on. They really should warn about that... The only reason I knew was from seeing a warning that would happen with the Aerosoft CRJ.

FAC257, thanks for the note about the engine setting on the clipboard! I'll check that out.

Looking forward to having time this weekend to R T F M and really learn how to fly this!
