Exceptional as usual.

[DaveWG]

Looks good to me :salute:

[aeronca1]

Zsolt, would love to see a Rhodesian paint up to your standards!!

[expat]

Great fun flying it out of Swiss air bases!

Can I ask who makes the model for FSX? Sorry if everyone but me knows. I sure is nice.

[johndetrick]

Dave Garwood. They can be found over at http://www.britsim.com/

Me :icon_lol:

Their "official" home is CBFSim. http://www.cbfsim.co.uk/cbfs_lib/index.php?cat=3

Still love the Hawker Hunter. One of my favorites in the flight sim. So sad about the crash the other other day of the ATAC Hunter in California http://www.examiner.com/article/hawker-hunter-war-games-training-jet-crashes-oxnard-calif-killing-the-pilot

Beautiful paintwork on a beautiful model.

I've been meaning to ask this for years ...

I know these are enabled using using the "payload editor" - but what are the weight values for the various stores? Specifically, looking for the 4 x tank configuration ...

thanks,

DL

[paul day]

Is it just me or is the link to the repaint not working?

If you look in the aircraft.cfg for the model you wish to change, the values are written there. The various combinations of stores & tanks vary according to model, so you can't have 4 tanks on an F1 model for example. The pylons / rocket pods etc are controlled by payload weight, but the visibility for the tanks themselves works off the value for the external fuel tanks which must be edited directly in the cfg.

here's the weight section from the FGA.9

station_load.0 = "210, 9.83, 0.0, 1.24, Pilot" // 210 lbs
station_load.1 = 155, 0.0, 7, 0.0, Left inner pylon // 155 lbs
station_load.2 = 155, 0.0, -7, 0.0, Right inner pylon // 155 lbs
station_load.3 = 0, 0.0, 10.0, 0.0, Matra Sneb L inner // 700 lbs
station_load.4 = 0, 0.0, -10.0, 0.0, Matra Sneb R inner // 700 lbs
station_load.5 = 155, 0.0, 10.0, 0.0, Left outer pylon // 155 lbs
station_load.6 = 155, 0.0, -10.0, 0.0, Right outer pylon // 155 lbs
station_load.7 = 0, 0.0, 10.0, 0.0, Matra Sneb L outer // 700 lbs
station_load.8 = 0, 0.0, -10.0, 0.0, Matra Sneb R outer // 700 lbs

and for the fuel tanks:

External1 = 0, 7, -2.46, 0,0 // see note below
External2 = 0, -7, -2.46, 0, 0

// NOTE
// set drop tank values as follows:
// inner 100g tanks only: 120
// inner and outer 100g tanks: 240
// inner 230g tanks only: 276
// inner 230g and outer 100g tanks: 396

Change the value shown in red to 120, 240, 276 or 396 depending on configuration.

Hope that helps.

Just had DG's T8 over the Alps and down into the Swiss Air Force mountain bases - sensational. Thanks for posting the load out reminder - was wondering about this too!

Thanks Dave - will try tomorrow - anticipate no issues.

The nice thing about this approach is that it enables me to "hard code" the configuration I want, so every time I load the plane, it's already how I'd like it (save for the fuel/weight adjustments). Second only to the more recent weapon/store configurators that we see with Milviz and Flying Stations, this is a great way to do multiple store configurations.

Apologies for not reading down into the aircraft.cfg - it's been a while ... :)

Happy New Year!

Was I dreaming or was there a download link for this paint?

[DaveQ]

No you're not dreaming - both single and two-seat versions have separate paint kits available from the link on post #8 (http://www.cbfsim.co.uk/cbfs_lib/index.php?cat=3 (http://www.cbfsim.co.uk/cbfs_lib/index.php?cat=3))

I'm probably being monumentally thick but I can't seem to see a download for the other single seaters other than the FGA.9 & FR.10 unless im looking in the wrong place?

They're in the 'extras pack'.

Lovely set of paints.

One of the most beautiful of jets.

Lovely set of paints.

Absolutely stunning Zsolt! Is the US Navy one fictional - I take it it is. Looks gorgeous!

[Ian Warren]

Crikey that bunch really stands out off the crowd, the Rhodesian and Swiss livery's .. impressive!

[expat]

Swiss and USN "what if?" paints are terrific. Are these on the DG or AS model?

[dhasdell]

The Swiss one I posted is included in the download.

Well they are wonderful - I have coincidentally been having a "Swiss binge" flying DG's hunters (and David Pearson's AI Mirage III's) in and out of St Stephan (LSTS). Great location and aircraft. Heading to Switzerland later this week (skiing in Zermatt). Hope you can post these!

[johndetrick]

Here is a fictional repaint of Dave Garwood's two seat Hunter in USMC colors.

[dhasdell]

Expat: like you I have enjoyed flying in Switzerland, mostly from Sion. As well as the Hunter and Mirage there's a very nice Venom available, both natural and camo finish, and a lovely repaint for the GAS Gipsy Moth.

[lanf77]

Is someone having the same issue with the NAV2 instrument with the Hunter Trainer version?
in the single place everything works OK:

No Freq:
http://i44.tinypic.com/2d4emf.jpg

With a rec freq:
http://i39.tinypic.com/2n7r58i.jpg

Hunter T no freq:
http://i41.tinypic.com/33y6deb.jpg

Hunter T with a dialed-receivable freq:
http://i40.tinypic.com/2n1bznn.jpg

While on the single place version the "off" flag goes away as it should, on the Trainer the "off" flag seems to "jump out" of the instrument, the VOR directon\distance works OK, it's just the "off flag.
Thank you for any help

[DaveWG]

It should be the same across both versions, it's the same gauge and code. I'll dig out my old source files and have a look this evening.

[lanf77]

Just to be more clear:
Both the T and the FGA9 tested are those found at Classic British Flight Sim, unedited and installed in FSX.
Thank you very much for the support :encouragement::encouragement:

[DaveWG]

Just to confirm, I've checked the model files, & it's a mistake on my part :banghead:
I'll have to correct & re-compile the models.

My apologies.

[lanf77]

NOTHING to apologize.
Thanks for updating the model, not only you have designed THE Hunter serie for FSX, but provided a costant improvement!
Thanks to you all people who make all theese freeware planes with such passion :applause:

[expat]

Just doing some approaches between Meiringen (LSMM) and St Stephan (LSTS) in winter in your T8, Dave, and every aspect - exterior model, VC, flight handling, and sounds of this exemplary freeware model - is sublime. Hugely appreciated.

I have got so carried away I now have my own little Hunterfest airshow set up using both DG's and John Young's dedicated models as AI. There are some great, varied Swiss Air Force paints (operational and air show) to watch and enjoy!

Thanks to Zsolt for the skins.

[DaveWG]

Has that paint been released anywhere? I can't find it at the usual sites.

[expat]

Surprised that - I think - there may be only one Trainer and two single seat Swiss AF paints available for the fsx model. The large number of fs9 Swiss paints M Schindler don't port over to Dave's FSX model.

Greetings by the way from Switzerland!

How to change payloads Hunter Trainer?

[hschuit]

How to change payloads Hunter Trainer?

See the notes in the Aircraft.cfg file for the External1/External2 tanks:

// NOTE
// set drop tank values as follows:
// inner 100g tanks only: 120
// inner and outer 100g tanks: 240
// inner 230g tanks only: 276
// inner 230g and outer 100g tanks: 396

BTW: Tanks will only show if fuel has been loaded on External1/External2 as in the notes above and pylon weights are entered in the FSX payload manager (155 Lbs per pylon).
The T.7 can carry up to 4 x 100g tanks, so you enter 120 gallons for 2 tanks, 240 gallons for 4 tanks, zero for none.

Does anyone know where I can get the VC glass fix? I can't seem to find it.
