Aeroplane Heaven C-47/DC-3 is out!

The repaint kits carry the necessary instruction. We have in fact, a Delta livery set to go in the next free livery upload. For detailed discussion, if and when necessary, please always contact the help desk. You did indeed contact us but not before posting here, giving us no notice or time to respond appropriately.

We will no longer be discussing technical matters on our products in this forum. Thanks.

Yes and I gave it as a quote, but it does not correspond to reality because it applies only to and exclusively radiator flap, not the texture of whole cover of (right) engine.
I care about time because I am doing this repaint now in free time, I know that you are here and I do not always get feedback on the e-mail, that's why I added a question here. Ok, so Im waiting patiently for reply on @ about this, thx.

Those rivets look GREAT!

Of which? As I wrote, there are unfortunately gaps in the responses to various e-mails. Honestly, out of 9 sent by me more than one week before, I got a response to 1, so I took the opportunity to ask the new question here too. From the customer's point of view, we care about the best quality of the product and writing about bugs is a norm and a necessity. From the authors' point of view, it is to verify and confirm it or to deny it after analysis and thank you for help in case of finding an issue (without taking offense because it is help). Maybe AH will want to have his own forum on the tech support site, that's always good and easy to control. Technical discussion here does not imply no discussion whatsoever, so be calm.

YoYo, I have bitten my tongue long enough on this thread. Your attitude is amazing and is bordering on developer bashing. You seem to expect a reply to your support questions within 60 seconds of sending it. Aeroplane Heaven is a small 2-3 man business in Australia. They have just relocated from Brisbane in Queensland to a point further north.

As well as doing updated for the C-47/DC-3 they have several projects on the boil. All this and trying to get their heads around the MSFS 2020 SDK. So I suggest you practice a little patience and let things roll along. I remember I mentioned the DC3 Viewmaster and heard nothing more. I was pleasantly surprised when it appeared in the 1.3 update. Now unlike some I am patiently waiting for the release of some of their freeware repaints.

You know, since we moved to a location just a stone's throw from the ocean a few weeks ago, I've found my perspective on life has changed completely...

Please don't put words in my mouth that I never said. I know very well that AH is not A2A and PMDG, they have their own path. Im his customer from FS2004 time but by the way, I really like the airplanes choices AH makes but paying attention to problems is absolutely not what you write about: "Your attitude is amazing and is bordering on developer bashing". Sorry, I'm not a Ctrl + E guy.

I am not surprised, I would like that too .

[ColoKent]

YoYo...with all due respect (and I mean that sincerely) you often come off in your AH posts as a tirelessly demanding rivet-counter who appears to be dissatisfied with every response you get from Baz or anyone else. Friendly advice: Chill out...it’s a hobby. Some introspection would help you put it in perspective. Go have a cuppa or a beer and chill...the world ain’t perfect, nor will it ever be...

That perspective is just the sea air rusting the old 1060 gtx card and the sound of sand grinding away in the cpu cooler. Stop taking the computer down to the beach to work on that thing you're working on.

PvP, that is cruel and unnatural behaviour which should qualify as assault and possibly attempted murder! You do know Barbie has a serious seafood allergy, don't you?

[bazzar]

With the size of the shrimps up here, we're going to need a bigger Barbie...

'Shrimps? Shrimps????'
Bloody 'Prawns'.
You've been watching that Paul Hogan promo again......
Hope you've been far enough up North to avoid the latest storm(s) and King Tides.

[bazzar]

Yep, we're slightly North of Hervey Bay. A bit of rain but thankfully no storms. Fraser's fires are out and that's a BIG relief. Lost a LOT of forest though.

[YoYo]

Hope everyone has eaten already! That's good! ; )

Ok, skin of Delta Air Lines is near ready. A lot of changes here, I did my own bare metal effect, did cleaner version with less but different weathering, some changes in bump mapping ect. I think its ok. Id like to do some of changes in interior, so it will be finished after this weekend but I'll wait with realease on SoH to the patch 1.3 for DC-3 package, Id like to check that's everything is o'right with this skin on new version of the model but if you don't want to wait, write me a PM and I'll send you a link with the repaint (but after the weekend).











Btw. The real NC28341 is a little different version, so you can notice differences in covers of engine, exhaust, 7, not 8 windows, smaller passenger door and a few small, less important things but it corresponds to a large extent to the original one. I even noticed that these belts on the nacelles of the engines covers are not straight, but they narrow slightly at first and then widen so and that's have been done. Regards!

Looks Fantastic! I will be in line to try her out. Is there a new version 1.3? I've got 1.3 installed now.

Thanks for your work on her!

[pbearsailor]

Looks great, YoYo! Thanks!

BTW, have you ever uploaded your cockpit textures for the Boeing Clipper?

cheers

I think you have 1.2, this new version incoming (maybe this month).

So another status of progress. This time, slight changes and a few fixes in the cockpit. As a picture is worth 1000 words, it's just screenshots ; ).













btw. great idea with these dishes and small cups and all 3D!

Really? Hmmm, I didnt see info about that this patch was out or changelog. Thanks your info I checked my store where I bought it, I see that in PCAviator is CURRENT VERSION 1.3 also now!
So all fixes are here? Thx, I'll download it soon.

[YoYo]

Short review.

Ok, I downloaded 1.3v and checked. Many small things was improved what is good + new repaints and new model. Nice.



For me still two things wasn’t solved, still the geometry of the wheel supports is bad, the connections are good now (thx, I can see that it was being worked on), but the plane on the ground went down again unnaturally like it was at the beginning. I think it's better to do it once and for all. Screenshot was taken with an empty plane (so it's not the weight).



The second thing is the unfortunate right engine cover which sees the left texture for the engine and not the right one which one is present in the set (so my DELTA textures has a problem on this engine, text is reversed). If these two things were resolved it would be great. I always offer my help in beta testing of this.

New features (but its strange or I miss something)?

- Panel lighting (from pedestal) always is ON from the beginning and I can’t turn it OFF. Which is not good for night flights or also during the day the whole cockpit is too bright now, earlier it could be turned ON and OFF on the lamp on the pedestal with all levers. Is it possible to turn off this lighting somewhere, maybe I miss something like new "click spot: for turning it off?

- No this fine animations on levers of prop, throttles and mixture (shaking) as it was before? I liked it a lot.



Did you notice it too?

I do not have P3D, but I must say one thing about the screen shots...


WOW!

I was an FSX user for years and had so much invested in it but I finally had it with the OOM problems and took the plunge into P3D this year. No looking back now!
