Gauge Programer Need
I have been working on a project for well over a year. I was working with a very talented gauge programer who was doing amazing work. For an unknown reason two months ago I lost all contact with him (I hope he is okay). I could release the aircraft as it is, but would very much like to finish up some things before I do. I could use a really talented and experienced gauge programer to help with this project. My previous programer will be very, very hard to replace, he was a genius and created things for this aircraft that has never been done in FSX before. If you feel you would like to take on this challenge and have the skills to push the limits of FSX, please contact me for more details. Thank you

FSX F-111
I saw the new video. I like the spinning turbine blades.

I am glad to help. It's looking good. I look forward to it.

Do I still buy TrackIR after the demise of Flight?
Try this free alternative to TrackIR. If you have a webcam you already have all the hardware you need, no modification to the camera needed. http://facetracknoir.sourceforge.net/home/default.htm

FSX F-111
The FSX,COM F-111 looks good, but it still leaves me wanting much more.It looks and works well, but they just focused on the pilot seat. There is so much more that could have be done. Model-wise my F-111 uses the Alphasim freeware F-111 (the model is just OK at best), but is the most fun to fly with the only TRUE LOOK AHEAD PITCH AND ROLL STABILIZED TERRAIN FOLLOWING RADAR system. That is the heart and soul of the F-111 flying experience. For more details click this link. https://sites.google...Version-History We are working to hard give the most realistic F-111 flying experience possible. That includes more than just a great model, we certainly don’t have one. I have the greatest respect for the people who model aircraft. I wish I had those skills. To me a bad F-111 is better than no F-111. None of the F-111s (Virtavia, FSX.com, and Just Flight) are bad. I have a very high standard having first hand knowledge of the F-111, being a former F-111 avionics systems specialist. When I say ‘worst than’ I should explain that while an 8 is worst than a 9, an 8 is still pretty good. Will I buy the Just Flight F-111, you bet I will? Will it be good? I am sure it will. I hope the beta testers report the pylon issue, or maybe someone from Just Flight will catch this post and fix it. Either way it looks good and I can’t wait to fly it. I would love to beta test it too. My F-111 project

FSX F-111
Having worked on the F-111 for four years I may be more critical than most people, but if you are going to model an aircraft do some simple research and get it right. I realize that it is still not finished, but the overall look of the textures just look 'cheesy'. The outer pylons on their model rotate as the wings sweep, but they are really fixed and do not move limiting the wing-sweep to 26 degrees when install. The VC looks good, but I will have to see how well it works. To be honest I am so disappointed with the Virtavia FSX F-111 it has made me skeptical and more cirtiacal of Justflight's F-111 and if you can't get some simple details correct, like the pylons, it makes me doubt what I can't see yet. I could forgive a lot from a freeware aircraft, but if you want people to buy your product then you better show you did some research! Virtavia's F-111 VC's look good at first glance. After flying it for a few minutes you quickly realize that the camera views are awkward and it functions poorly. You can read my review of the Virtavia F-111 here. http://stevesflights...yware-f-111#102 The FSX.com F-111 looks good. I am beta tesing it now.

FSX F-111

any special technique for boosting frames?
This may sound silly, but it is very true. Make sure to limit the amount of fonts on your system to under 100. Nothing will slow down not just Flight Sim, but your whole computer, than too many fonts.

New Virtavia F-111 for FSX
There is more wrong with this Model than they got right. I looks good a first glance, but really falls short of what it could have been, I got bored with it very quickly.

FSX F-111
Coming soon to the older Alphasim F-111. A Terrain Following Radar system that looks ahead of the aircraft. This has never been done in FSX! This video (sorry about the quality) is a HANDS OFF flight at 500kts and 250ft above ground level set on the Auto TF.http://youtu.be/1EwVQN0AZeo

FSX F-111
That tells me it did not install to the correct folder. Make sure that when you install it your Alphasim F-111 is in the ...Microsoft Flight Simulator XSimObjectsAirplanes folder and you select the ...Microsoft Flight Simulator X folder as your install folder.

FSX F-111
I have freeware F-111s on my website that not only have the 'dump and burn' effect, but dumps fuel with the effect when using the gauge on the panel.https://sites.google.com/site/shess0757/home

electrical mystery
It is a graphic issue. The GPS 'light' has two states, off & on. If it is ON then the BMP will look like the GPS light is lit even if there is no power. Flight Simulator does just that, Simulates not replicates and sometimes rather poorly.

Fuel tank priority
Started flight with default Cessna 172 Turned off magnetos, battery, and avionics. Aircraft is now cold and dark. Saved flight Exited to main menu Started saved Cessna flight Changed aircraft to AS F-111 (still cold and dark) Switched on L & R generators and Battery Ctrl + E to start #1 engine, repeated for #2 engine start No Joy, Aft tank still feeds with wing and drop tanksSteve

Fuel tank priority
Does the Center 2 tank have to be a center tank? Can it be some other name that can feed at the same time as center1?LeftMain = 0.000, -8.000, 0.000, 400.000, 1.500RightMain = 0.000, 8.000, 0.000, 400.000, 1.500LeftAux = 0.000, -6.000, 0.000, 600.000, 1.500RightAux = 0.000, 6.000, 0.000, 600.000, 1.500are being used.Any thoughtsthanksSteve
