  1. Hi, I'v posted an xcamera set on the Facebook page for the DC-6B pilot's group. Bill
  2. Thanks, I'll go back and add the EULA's. Bill
  3. Hi, I've done some limited photo-texturing modifications to the engines, and have a new livery (Reeve Aleutian Airways) ready for upload. I think the PMDG EULA provides permission to upload these freeware modifications, provided I give proper credit to PMDG? Is this correct? One of my texture re-works got bumped at another location, and it's confused me about re-painting the DC-6's. Thanks Bill Schulz
  4. Hi Onno, Can you use xcamera to get into the cabin and use the 3D internal view to set up wing/cabin/engine views? I'm frustrated that I can't set up any 3D cameras outside the cockpit....or else I'm missing how to open the cockpit door and "escape" the cockpit, so I can set up some views from the cabin. Any help is appreciated. Bill
  5. Hi, No problems going the other way...from 737 to DC-6, the paired rudde/tiller yaw all work. Odd, indeed! Thanks Bill
  6. Hi team, I've noticed that, after flying the DC-6, when I try to fly another aircraft (IXEG 737, FlyJ 737 are the only ones I've flown after the DC-6), I lose tiller control. Rudder will work, but not tiller. After an X-Plane reboot, the tiller on the 737's works fine. Just an observation, easy workaround, just wondered if others had noticed. Thanks Bill KGSP
  7. Hi Team, I really love your rendition of the DC-6, thanks so much! One of the joys of having a vintage airliner like this is re-creating some memories as a passenger--(even if only for short times in cruise!) With the cockpit door open, and stairs down, I still can exit the 3D "shell". Nor can I open the cockpit door to get to the cabin (which a pilot might need to do). Am I missing a trick to getting to the cabin to set up some views? Thanks so much Bill
  8. Tom, You've given so much to our Flight Simulation Community, including strong leadership, vision, and tangible commitment of your time and resources. For that we are eternally grateful, thank you. I hope you and your family can spend quality time in your remaining days. None of us know "our time", but we should all live fully--as I know you have, and will. My care Bill KGSP
  9. This looks so awesome, thank team for the continued great support of our hobby! Is there any way to drop in a more complete, if even non-functioning 3-D shell in the meantime? I fly final approaches by hand most of the time (at least when not in IMC!), and in the 3D cockpit. Having a bit more defined 3-D shell than is there currently would be super! Thanks Bill KGSP
  10. Hi, I use this product, and I'd say that it does add a bit of "plausibility" to the distant views, but it's still on the blurry side, not crisp. I would not fly airliner flights at altitude on clear days without it, however, as, when matched with SkyMaxx Pro, the overall feel is very good. Bill KGSP
  11. Great utility...fun to learn how to drive the tugs! Bill
  12. What you were seeing may not have been "clear skies" but rather, a very limited visibility cloak...which looks like clear skies...that's my hunch, you were in very limited vis conditions--which don't change as you gain altitude.... I'm waiting on a WX injector--in the meantime, I typically load real wx, for winds, then go to "global" weather (manually) and re-set the clouds and vis to what I think approximates what I expect to see, skipping the METAR cloud info. Bill
  13. Would be wonderful if you could work with X-Aviation to have their Florida scenery "enhanced" with this technique...I'd pay $5 to upgrade and not have to figure what looks like a rather technical challenge. Bill
  14. DCS or X-Plane? You have me curious! Also, do you live in Portugal? My descendants are from the Acores (and earlier, the home country). Went to visit Portugal in the 1990's, and drove through the inland countryside to the Sintra area and coast...what wonderful people and a beautiful country! Bill
  15. Thanks guys, this is very helpful information! I'll start by getting used to the migration tool, then try the JF 1011. Bill
