    Bongiorno amico,

    In your F84F for P3Dv4 announcement you state :

    Customers that want upgrade from previous FSX/P3D v2 or v3 can have a discount, open a ticket at this end, will receive a 15 € coupon, please attach a proof of purchase

    What does that mean ' at this end' ??.....

    I *think* i opened a ticket, 3 days ago, proof of purchase attached, but don't see any response. I only keep seeing " you have no support tickets of this type " ....

    What exactly does one have to fill in at " Please select a department for your support enquiry " ??..... What *kind* of department ??....

    I.O.W. a bit more information about how to get the discount for owners of the FSX/P3Dv2/3 F84F model would be very welcome.

    Ciao,
    Jan

    Sorry does this model have the function to have wingtip tanks?

    I havent been able to see and images or anything description

  8. #8
    The F-84 (Thunderjet) had wingtip tanks, the F-84F (Thunderstreak) didn't. Does have big wingtanks and so does the SSW model. (selectable)

    Info for FSX F84F but has a bigger picture showing wingtanks :

    I completely understand your sentiment, and have never understood why SSW would erect this barrier to sales, but this is a very nice aircraft and your loss if you let this issue get in your way.

    Even though, in general I also do not like so much the many barriers put by SSW in to the whole process of buying and authenticating their products, I have to say that not once since I joined the SSW site have I received any unwanted emails from them. My only problem is that I keep forgetting my password and after some time I can not join the site, like now that I wish to check this out. I'll have to resort to the "I forgot password" option again. This product is one of their best and I'll definitely try to have it in v4 as well.

    Question to SSW: Is the VACMI system v4 compatible and also still free?

    im genuinely interested in the AC, if someone could share pics, that would be great

    Just a few quick ones in v3:







    Let me know if you need any specific paint or other detail in particular.

    These are awesome images, I think I'll update my old version.

    a close up on the textures on slight angle to check out the bump and spec mapping if im not being too pushy

    from those im 75% convinced

    Can someone open this model in MCX and check the following for me (Or if SSW can just answer directly this would be better!):

    Is the Reflection Setting = 1 (in other words 100%) and is the environment blending with the inverse of the diffuse alpha?

    IS the Specular texture a single "one size fits all" specular or are they specific textures (for each diffuse there is a specular counterpart?)

    is fresnel being used?


    Thanks if anyone has the time to respond to this!

    Matt, our huge time difference does not help but here are some pics that hopefully show what you're looking for:







    Rick, I'll try to answer yours the best I can (SSW team may correct me if wrong):

    Is the Reflection Setting = 1? -> Yes, with reflection scale set at 0.3, a custom global env map is also used

    Is the environment blending with the inverse of the diffuse alpha? ->Yes


    Is the Specular texture a single "one size fits all" specular or are they specific textures (for each diffuse there is a specular counterpart?) -> Specific specular is used for each diffuse

    Is fresnel being used? -> Yes, controls reflection and specular

    As I was typing this the SSW crew unblocked my account so I can now check out this v4 upgrade...

    By the way,jokes aside,there are specific speculars for each diffuse,because is the way you have to do them. Maybe not so necessary if you paint opaque or modern liveries.
    Every aircraft have is "name" on the left bottom of canopy,specific stenciling divided by nations,panels are the same of real one,and each panel has it's ID number.
    Is very detailed and easy to paint,even if there are not so much paints to do...The painter was a bit avid and he did almost all schemes around.

    Its not a problem and totally understandable

    im pretty much sold on this however Ive spend my fortnightly pocket money on a new rifle to solve an issue with some birds who have taken up residence on my yard currently attacking anyone who goes out side

    next pay unless the PMDG 6 or Aerosoft A330 come out

    Hi Jan,
    "to this end" means "to this purpose"
    On help desk there were 2 departments: one for "help desk" (which should have been checked by you) and a second "Tornado bug tracker" (now closed)
    I'm sorry, i apologize, did not realized before that opening a ticket was so difficult, we have more than one thousand tickets processed, nobody has notified us such difficulties so far.
    Warm regards

    Hi odourboy,
    in your post there is hidden the answer to your question.
    It is a long debated question:
    - to open the site to show all our products publicly or set a filter (i don't consider a "barrier") forcing visitors to register to the site, which is free and takes few minutes ?
    Well, i guess our way will be more clear if you consider that SSW is not a business oriented company, we do high quality models for passion not to get a budget.
    Don't need nor desire more visibility, our users, or better our "friends", are the best testimonials for us, you are one of them.
    It is also a matter of how we are organized, we are a little group, each one of us has his own work, making planes in our free time, we could not support an huge set of customers, that's also the last but not the least reason why.
    So we would like open the site to who are really interested in our work, filtering "casual" visitors.
    It could looks like a strange way but is our way.
    cheers
