Cool, thanks for the heads up! I'd like to see if the S-55 and the Cessna 170 can be made to work in FSX. Unfortunately, the Avsim Library seems to be down again now.

Thanks for the Hu on the S-55.

It's not that I think stupidity should be punishable by death. I just think we should take the warning labels off of everything and let the problem take care of itself.
Don't forget BananaBob did two great photoreal S-55 repaints.
Pretty certain they are available at Avsim or definitely certain they are available at www.screenshotworld.com
Lovely (well I like it ) little Helo, just right for put-put-puttering around
Bobs pics
cool freebies
thanks for the HU Guys

There are also many S-55 repaints on Flightsim by Remi Pierlot. They work in FS9 also and they look very good. I think he covered almost any nation that flew these.
Looking forward to downloading the S-55...whenever the file library works again. Odd how nobody on the Avsim forums has posted that it's down.
Cheers,

There's no point in saying it any more, it happens so frequently.
Yup. I'm after that heli too.... <twiddles thumbs and ponders where his registration is for the Nemeth Mi17...>
I guess that explains why they are madly advertising for a techie.
Cheers,

SWEEEEET!! The S-55 IS an FSX model. Yippee.
Thanks Alphasim!
Jim
Very cool, thanks a lot! Does someone know a good sound set?
Bob's repaints are fantastic! They only need a proper spec map.
I tried the Alpha T-6 sound as the first S-55 had also the P&W R1340 radial.
That fits the helo much better than the default Robin-22 Lyco opposite 4.

Phil asked me to upload them yesterday. You can get them here at Sim-Outhouse or at avsim (with these links below). There are a couple FSX titles in the mix.

I just d/l'd the S-55 for FSX and every time I switch back to the VC it freezes the sim and I have to do a hard reboot. I've had to reboot 3 times now :help:
I've un-installed it for now. Shame too since it was so nice of a visual model.
-G-
There was no FSX version when I painted the original textures so I have never loaded it in there myself. I did notice that there are six texture sets (or at least folders) in the FSX version whereas there were originally only five in the FS2004 version. Maybe the sixth is a "common" folder? If so then I wrote up the File_ID.diz file incorrectly -- oops. :whistle:
Do you recall what texture set you had loaded or was this freezing up across the board?
:ernae:
I just checked them all and I didn't experience this. Hadn't heard of it before either. Fun to fly this on though.
Does anyone know how to get that left rear wheel out of the mud in FSX? It wasn't that way in the original FS9 version.
Also the FSX version is not wearing the final textures I delivered way back when. Some details are missing. You might want to convert the FS9 sets into DDS and use them.
I had no problem with crashing on the S-55, but couldn't restart it after shutting down. **** time I think, there, because I couldn't get it past 500rpm following the kneeboard checklist, let alone up to 700fpm.
Other than that, superb fun. :ernae:
