G,

So, when is this puppy gonna roll out of the hanger? I've been trying to PM/Email you and no replies.

I actually put up a call for beta volunteers in this thread, but got no responses.

I figured there was not significant interest in the project, with the exception of those who have followed the thread closely, so I've been concentrating more on developing my skill sets.

Must have missed that call. Willing to test... Make that wiling and eager.
Hmm, guess this was the call "I'm working that out and would be fine with putting the updated moF7F with the new VC in the hands of some volunteers for the beta phase."

Physically Based Rendering.

Interestingly, I have been working with this technique...well studying it actually...for the last several weeks.

These "cove" shots are of the new Tigercat exterior model WIP set up for PBR development. The experiment is set up to approach light rendering from a 64bit DX10-DX11 perspective. The new model is going to incorporate many additions to the physical model, as well as extensive use of normal mapping to develop detail.

I'm also very keen to see what LM has up their sleeve for P3D4 Rick. :encouragement:

That looks awesome Gordon :applause:

Maybe it was a bit vague...lol.

Thanks for offering to test Sue. Shoot me a PM and I'll set it up for you.

Make that a me too! My video card was blitzed at the time you put out the call so there was nothing I could do at that time.

Thanks Milton. A guy could burn up a lot of time just messing around and setting up beauty shots!

Roger that Ted. I've had a lot of down time in the last six months too. Complete OS rebuild, and moved from CA to OR and back.

Anyone else interested in the beta just PM me here. I'll hit you back.
I figure maybe ten testers would be fine.

BTW...this is P3D specific at this time, the FSX model needs some optimization before it's ready.

Thanks all...

Happy to do some testing for you when you have an fsx version ready to go.

Thanks Matt. It is an optimization thing for the FSX planes.
BTW...I'm applying the same mods to the Buffalo. Both planes will go FSX at the same time...:encouragement:

Looking forward to seeing both in FSX

Heads Up on the Beta model.

The three models are cleaned up and ready to upload. If you posted here or sent me a PM expressing interest, make sure I get your email so I can send you a link to the server.
I'm very appreciative of the responses from everyone...thanks all.

If I am a bit lax in my responses here...bear with me.
Been replacing the starter in our "runt" car...again. :encouragement:

INCOMING...F7F-3 VC Beta

The packages are uploading to my cloud as I am posting.
I'll bump everyone at the email they provided me.

Once the uploads are live, I'll post up some basic parameters for the testing.

This should be fun....:very_drunk:

OK...Here is where Gman goes into berserker leg breaking mode.

After tying up my day and computer for hours, uploading three files to a server I use all of the time, to a file that contains other work I have uploaded, Microsoft has borked my uploads of the three F7F Beta files.

"Sorry...you don't have permission to upload these files"... K....baseball bat is handy.
Pray tell...Why the @#$%k can't Microsoft let me know at the beginning of the process that I don't have "permissions", rather than allowing my day to go down the crapper.

Any insights on this would be welcomed.....

May want to look at Dropbox. It's free.

Yes, Dropbox would be a good alternative. Bummer on your regular U/L source.
In this case, if it wasn't for the bad luck you'd have no luck at all......:teapot:
