[stovall]

The FSX Kenmore Air DeHavilland DHC-3 Turbo Otter by Premier Aircraft Designs is found HERE. (http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/fslib.php?searchid=7593965) Looks like this could be the last release for PAD after 16 years of production. Enjoy.

That model was released about 5 years ago. This appears to be an update by an outside concern. The PAD website has been closed for at least a year now (since Jean Pierre's passing), basically remaining open to allow downloads.

[racartron]

Actually the site is still open and quite active for continued livery requests and new downloads --about 1 to 3 new ones per week. Only the development of new models had to halt with Jean Pierre's passing.

This is now available on over on flightsim.com just downloaded it.

The download link above doesn't work anymore.

Those searchid numbers of the FlightSim are variables i.e. they change by time. Better use as link the File list (View): http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/fsview.php?do=list&fid=171913 or straight download link: http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/fslib.php?do=copyright&fid=171913 . (The file-id number 171913 is more stable)

Any suggestions for the replacement of the prop texture?

[FSX68]

Its nice don't get me wrong......but I wish the prop texture could be cleaned up a bit. If you look at the stock DHC 2 in FSX they spin a bit cleaner. Is there a way to improve it a bit?

Good ol' Banana Bob would of had a fix.....

Here we go folks, As Rich asked, you get.


A new blur for all versions of the turbo otter by PAD, (Two files, prop_TBX.bmp and prop2_TBX.bmp, as some variants use prop2, some prop, simply put a copy of both in each folder for hassle free paint scheme transfers :) )


Anyway, hope this is what people were looking for...

Thanks a million.... that is a much much better looking prop. I wouldn't of known how to manulipate the DXTBMP to get the results you got.
Btw why the prop2_TBX file? Only one file was overwritten, why the 2nd file?
:applause:

[Firekitten]

As I said, not all versions of the turbo otter call the same file... between the different models, some call prop, some call prop2, I included both to make it easier to transfer paint schemes between models :)

Thanks Firekitten. Much improved. I'm pretty good with modifying cfg files but I'm fairly worthless with DXTbmp. Very appreciated.
