I actually have those on my "Must Buy" list. Thanks for the reminder!!
My reason for asking, the Robert Sanderson models gave me a great amount of enjoyment in FS2004. It would be great if they also worked in FSX. I haven't found but little info if they actually work. Or if updates, modifications were ever done to any of them.

Why don't you just try it yourself? :mixedsmi:

I just did that. The Hurricane IID loads and displays fine. Best I can tell animations appear to work, along with all gauges and switches. There's something going on tho. Lots of lag and stutters.
The Boeing Stearman 75, same results.
....Others I have yet to test. But I'm guessing the same results.
I was hesitant to start the topic due to recent releases. But I can't afford to buy everything.
...I was just hoping they would work right as I haven't got a clue how to fix them.

Robert's models always 'pushed the limit' as far as polys were concerned, as port-overs, you will need a very serious set up not get a slideshow in FSX.

What a shame. They work great in FS2004.
Edit- Problem resolved by converting all BMP textures to DDS. Now works flawlessly. And very smoothly :)
....Now if someone knows of a decent prop blur replacement (two parts are needed)

I've no clue if it will or not. Best bet would be to add it to the library as add-on scenery and try it.
