Thanks for the HU TuFun and thank you Milton, it works very well in FSX including the Fire Retardant effect.:salute::salute:

Slight problem with the position of the retardant dropping. it appears to exit from the starboard engine.

What a magnificent model! :medals: :medals: :medals:

[StormILM]

Tested it and it runs great in FSX! The most immediate fix that it needs is the props and the alignment of the retardant drop effect. Other than that, it's awesome!

It looks good indeed, he did great work, I love the conair one myself. :)

I hope you all like my Marsh S2T Textures... I've got a 2048x2048 fsx version that will be coming too... and if we go fsx native... bumps to go with :D

And watch this space for the new cockpit for both versions.

firekitten?..do you know what is on the side of the calfire "eight eight" pilots side,just under the window...i know the right side says or is supposed to say "grass Valley".....is it the pilots name?...ive got several close up shots from the grass valley ATB,but i never thought to photograph the left side...

grass valley is on the left of 230..

Try this...

In the Aircraft.cfg

[smokesystem]
smoke.0 = -05, 0, -02, fx_SOH_dump_Retardant, // use water or retardant, not both

Prop fix...

Looking good. Will be converting this one to FSX native once I get the Dash 7 converted:monkies:

Thank you TuFun, that looks far better and also the props too.:salute::salute::salute:

Very much looking forward to the FSX native versions! I'd love help out with beta testing when you get around to it (and if you need beta testers).

Prop fix...

Any chance you can re-upload the prop fixes? I lost mine and it looks like the attachment links no longer work...

[TuFun]

If you are still using the wip version... I recommend downloading the FSX port version. Should have the correct props.

Downloaded the port over version and found the props were lopsided, so here is a fixed prop version.

Grass Valley is on both sides. None of Cal Fire's aircraft have pilot names.

Thanks. It's actually for my CDF tankers. I went to fly them the other day and it looked like I still had FS9 props with the trees showing through. Initially I was thinking that I'd come here and get the spinprop fix for them, but now that I think about it, I had the correct props at one point and I don't understand where they went.

Maybe I'll just do a fresh re-install, making sure I use the right package, and see if that fixes it.

Thanks.

Ya. That's the one.

Like I said, I'm not sure what happened because I used to have the correct prop (I have older screenshots that show it), but now they're FS9 props. Maybe I installed the wrong version at some point... I'll check later.

This version 1.1 has the correct props. Might add, beautiful paint work Firekitten!

Really nice sound set with this. Great turbo start up and flight. Looking for more skins.
