Wittman Tailwind Update out, Build 1.5

L

Lionheart

SOH-CM-2014
Hey all,

Ive been working on the updates for the new Tailwind. Alot of bits redone, new installer has Prepar3D in it for direct loading to P3D. I have added some interior and exterior plexi features per a request. They are quite a bit different from what they were.

I have also added quite a few new, pretty exciting camera views. I am thankful to have learned to program these better. So many things you can do with them.

Camera views include;
* 2D Panel
* Right seat, (instructor)
* Left panel main zoom
* Throttle and power, switches bank
* Rear cargo nook shot
* Belly cam between landing gear for taxing and landing shots
* Front quarter and cowling cam points
* New wing views that have better angles and field-of-view perspectives
* Rear tail shot (great for flying through valleys of low mountains)
* High tail for taxiing on the ground
* Front top down view at top of plane (just looks cool)

If you didnt know, this is a tri-pack, 3 planes in one. The early W-8 series Tailwind, the W-10 later model, different rudder, bigger engine, must faster, and the W-10 with tri-cycle landing gear. The W-8 has a very simple panel and optional wheel skirts on / off. Many planes!

I recieved permission from Robert (BannanaBob) Rivera to include his repaints in this package, so all his work on these are in here also.


This package is not yet updated for FS2004.... :(

One of my favorites, especially the trike model. I remember doing that black and white "Batman" scheme :)


Is the Flight1 installer already updated to 1.5?
 
I would like to download the V1.5 of the tailwind, except I have a problem. I am not sure which sim site I purchased it from? Wouldn't be a big deal except I buy from so many different vendors. Bill, If I give you my order number and purchase date, can you maybe help me out here? I just need to know which vendor the purchase was made with...
 
Thanks for the update, Bill!

I'm very glad I finally picked this one up, recently. Sitting in the cockpit, with the sound set, it feels like being in a street rod - I can picture John Milner (American Graffiti) hunched over, elbow resting on the window frame, cruising around. : )

Thats the feeling I got also in it. They must be a blast to fly, like a little T-bucket....

BUG ALERT AND FIX: Build 1.5 of the Tailwind package.

Hey all,

In my 'zest' to enhance the Tailwind package, I made a mistake on the Models, when compiling. The light switches were accidentally programmed with the Avelina sound effects. The rocker switches for the lights in the newest Tailwinds do not 'click' like they should.

I have created a fix, all the model files are replaced. You can do this manually or with the auto-update file.

Instructions are in the update pack. Super easy. Just replacing all of the MDL files in the 3 Tailwind folders.

If you 'like' the sound the rockers make presently, then disregard.


This is ONLY for FSX and Prepar3D versions. FS2004 is fine.
