Will the old paints still fit Tim?

I did a couple for the original and was just wondering. I could upgrade them to spiffy new DDS files I guess if V2 is a full FSX build.

From recent experience I can tell you that the old repaints do work, however you need to rename them and they are of course in 1024x1024 resolution.

I don't know whether this will make any sense but I will try to explain. A complete repaint consists more or less of only one main texture. All other textures contain parts and bits which are shared with all versions. The main texture for the fs9 version was called pc7_01.bmp. However for the FSX version this textures was called pc7_01_T.dds.

So when you use a repaint which was originally done for FS9 you don't need to rename anything. Just copy a complete texture folder, rename it and and replace the pc7_01.dds by the pc7_01.bmp file from the repaint desired.

When you use a repaint which was originally done for FSX, copy a complete texture folder again, rename it and delete the pc7_01.dds from this folder. Copy the desired pc7_01_T.dds file in this folder and rename it in pc7_01.dds.

In both cases you need to adjust the thumbnail as well of course!

Again I hope that somebody could follow my explanation until here.......

Thanks again Tim and enjoy the model and all repaints done for it!

Cheers,
Huub

I have already done the first one for V1.0 and Piglet says the external paints should still fit although I do intend to review them and check the VC texture fit.

All my PC-7 paints can be found in the SOH archive (not the current, new, library) by searching for my user name.

DOH!!! :isadizzy::banghead:

Thanks for that Roger, I forgot all about that '_T' issue.

However, I still want to change the textures to DDS and seeing as Tim has now included proper spec and bump maps I also need to create correct specs and alphas for the paints. The VC textures also need looking at as there are some funky things going on there too.

They will all look better for a bit of TLC. ;)

Watch this thread for news of the V2.0 compatible repaints.

I just gave the PC-7 a quick flight around the pattern. I don't know how I missed this in FS9, but this is one sweet little package. She handles like a dream. My quick flight around the pattern became a few low level passes, a bunch of rolls, a four-point roll, Cuban eight, loops, and screaming down the runway inverted. I think I have a replacement for my much beloved T-28. It's lighter on the controls, more responsive, quieter, and probably burns a heck of a lot less fuel than the T-28. Thanks, Tim!:wiggle:

Oh, and having the GPS mounted atop the instrument panel is perfect!

Okay, here's a question for those of you who've put some stick time in with the PC-7: how do you slow it down? It's one of the slipperiest planes I've ever flown in FS. Even with the throttle at idle, it seems to want to happily cruise along at 200KIAS, making it pretty tough to get it slow enough to extend flaps. I'd had to resort to pitching up fairly radically to bring it into the white arc so I could lower flaps on approach. Once the flaps are down, it's quite manageable. But getting it to those speeds is a challenge.

Anyone know what the secret is?

VinFlyer
July 26th, 2010, 14:13
I found out that I still had an almost finish repaint for the old PC-7 laying around. Fortunately it's high res at 2048x2048, so suitable for the new PC-7. It's the current Swiss AF c/s, I need to tweak a few things but I'll upload it soon.
