  1. Shorty stacks does sound different than the trumpet exhaust seen in this video that gives it a deeper tone. Hows the sounds on the SibWings version? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tli5NG4HBsQ Beautiful silver bird... deeper sounds... love the radial sounds. Starting at 10:38, listen how loud it gets when the window is opened... close at 11:40.
  2. Something to do on Thanksgiving Day! Photoshop fun that is!!! Some area I'm working on...
  3. Ok, that make sense. You can tell its P3D by the clouds.
  4. Very nice pic... except for one thing... what's that in the upper right corner?
  5. I think Monty wouldn't like that since this is his VIP aircraft. The aircrew and ground crew would hand polish the VIP aircraft and take great pride in doing so. Although I would add some exhaust soot and oil stains. Article from the "The Royal Air Force Review" October 1948 Vol. 4 No. 3 of "The Royal Air Force Review" On the ground, as in the air, the same high standards are the rule, and the crews are among the Air Force's best tradesmen. They are particularly proud of their aircraft and the hand-polishing is just an outward manifestation of the pride. It may be wearying work, polishing the entire fabric of an aircraft with metal polish and a handful of rag, but it is done by hand because machine buffing would gradually thin down the heads of the aluminum rivets. And, when there are not enough ground crew to do the work, the aircrews themselves take time off from their training and lend a hand. The results: a No. 24 Squadron aircraft stands out on the airfield like an "export only" job... But exterior glitter is not the only thing that makes them exceptional. Many are "special" inside as well.The Chief of Air Staff Dakota is said to be one of the world's most luxurious aircraft. Its floors are carpeted, its fuselage paneled in walnut and lined overhead with cream pigskin. Its soft amber interior lights are built-in and have push-button switches for each. Five swiveling armchairs upholstered in brown leather, two settees which can be converted into bunks for night flying, and two small cream leather-covered stools complete the seating accommodation. A Concealed radio set provides soft music (the engines are barely audible in the main cabin) and an altimeter, airspeed indicator and clock over the door. As for Field Marshal Montgomery's aircraft, he designed the interior himself with the same workmanship and finish as described above, but has neither bunks nor galley. He rarely sleeps or takes meals in the air, but spends most of his time reading and writing.
  6. Love mountain scenery in these pics!!! One of my favorite mountain areas I like to fly is France VFR Corse (Corsica)! France VFR makes some great scenery.
  7. More skin enhancements... panel lines, hazing, metal warping, and scratches effected by lighting.
  8. Thanks... couldn't find a good metal skin for the C-47 so had to do it myself with proper bump map/rivets.
  9. That's more like it! Have the same problem with shadows (jaggies/no shadows) depending on the angle of the sun.
  10. These are beautiful shots, any reason why the shadows are jagged and the last pic the h-stab is miss it's shadow?
  11. ... were used in the manufacture of the Douglas DC-3 airplane.
  12. http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/processors/core/x-series/i9-7980xe.html?wapkw=intel+i9+processor
  13. Few shots of the Beaver around Corsica.
  14. Also v.7 will have the new Virtual Bubble Projection System. By pushing the red button on the monitor you'll be surrounded with a full 360* view without the need of virtual glasses! Just remember to buckle up when you do this.
  15. I did the same with Manfreds KC-97 with smoke effects... heavy throttle, heavy smoke at max rpm, and light smoke at climb power settings.
  16. Guess who??? In the panel folder look under [VCcockpit02] and double slash "gauge28=". See if that works. [VCockpit02] //gauge28=BT_B25!B25_FLASH, 0,0,0,0 Textures would be in the root effects folder in the texture folder... would be something like fx_xxxxx.bmp , not sure what the naming would be.
  17. Thank you for bring this to light. I am awe at your products, although I don't have any, but awaiting the DC6 myself which will be the first for me. Vintage is my style!
