I'm obviously completely different to everyone else out there when it comes to this and it was good to get a better gauge of what is considered normal practice. So thanks for a flameless discussion - getting rare in this day and age.
2021 is going to be an interesting year.

PUH-LEASE! Have you seen that thing IRL?? (movies) it's barely held together with duct tape and couple power converters that even LUKE couldn't screw up! HAHA..... I think any release for MSFS would be in the wheel house of reality.... LOL But, I understand. I was mostly in jest.

I know you're focused hard on the F-15 right now, but just curious... I thought you mentioned a while back you might update your P-61 for MSFS? If I had that along with Dino's MB-339, I'd be content for a good long time.
(Also: I would pay for it, if you've considered a commercial version.)

That's awesome news!
Well once we get this initial release done for the Goose and out the door for Christmas, we're going to try and be organised and setup a calendar of aircraft for the new year. Deano is right that I have a fair amount on my plate and it looks like I've just got another couple goodies put under my Christmas tree maybe so 2021 is going to be a VERY full year.
As Dean is planning on doing a commericial version of the 61, our team will not be doing as complete a make-over as we have with the Goose, however it will still be a full native conversion with full PBR and updated flight model from Pam "warchild" Booker
Some quick crystal ball gazing and MAYBE an Easter Release for the 61s?
Nice!
Thank you
Hope you're having a good holiday
Anyone had any luck flying legacy planes in VR ?
The ones i've tried that work any fly fine in pancake mode cause a CTD the moment I try to enter VR.

So, I just bought myself FS2020 yesterday and of course the first thing I'm doing, before I've even logged 2 hours in the air, is converting legacy models.
I have one question that has been asked a here and not usefully answered. When basically everything works except that the cockpit and gauge glass is opaque or semi-opaque, what's the best thing to replace the glass texture with? So far the closest thing to a helpful answer has been, "I replace it with a texture I know works." What is that texture? I.e. what are the R, G, B, and Alpha values?
The Golden Age Sims planes are a good example. I've converted the Finch and Waco UBF so far, and the only issue is milky windscreen, canopy and gauge glass. How did you guys fix that?

I've seen about four different Legacy Importer links. Can someone tell me which one is the best, as I need some legacy aircraft? Also, is there a reason people aren't uploading updated freeware that has been converted? Especially the people who made it originally and are already flying a converted version? I'm inclined to see if I can get the DCB Fokker T.5 in here, now that it's been released. I just don't like flying P3D anymore, because MSFS runs so much better for me and P3D looks kind of like a cartoon to me now by comparison. Ken (Also, does anyone know how to make Firefox leave line breaks in posts?)
Hey champ, no one is posting links because they are not the original developer of the aircraft.
As for converter you want NSFSLegacyImporter: https://www.nexusmods.com/microsoftf...lator/mods/117
Are there any good tutorials that especially shows how to convert gauges / animations? As soon as it is possible to me understanding how to get my goodies into MSFS, I am sure I will give it a try.
Oh, how about converting legacy helicopter? Does anybody know if this is possible, please?
Best regards, Manfred.
Helicopters don't work yet, as there isn't a helo flight model in the new sim. My understanding is it is coming next year. I know the program OzWookie recommended just above has video tutorial links in the read me, but I don't know if they cover what you're looking for. I'm going to watch those next. Ken
Thank you, Ken!
Best regards, Manfred.

Oh, I didn't know you were going to do one proper for MSFS. Thanks!! It's been one of my favorite warbirds to fly for years. I've used it for recon runs, ball bearing runs from Sweden, low level bomb runs over the mainland, it's a great all purpose airplane. Any chance of an updated Beaufighter as well? (Yeah, I'm pushing my luck )
from a post from MSFS devs, it was pointing towards helicopters in MSFS will be a payware content addon in the future. This was meet with some push back from a lot of people on various media platforms
who knows?
the only concern regarding these legacy converters that some payware developers may not make the effort to compile MSFS native models but rather use these converters and make rudimentary updates and ask the full quid for purchase. Its a bit of a catch 22 with these mods are we setting ourselves up for failure for a snappy enhancement?
