The Mirage 2000 by Rollus is out!

**deathfromafar** · August 25th, 2009, 13:39

Thanks for the reply Henk. I was wondering about that. I guess it follows the same auto-trim FCS logic that is utilized in the Airbus FCS. For whatever reason, the plane isn't auto-trimming either. I end up having to hold a lot pf backpressure in to keep the plane trimmed.

I will work with it more and see if it can be sorted out.

Thank's my friend for your advices !!
I'll try to use DXTBMP in order to black out the flames parts.

Are you setting the leading edge slats to auto or not?

**peter12213** · August 27th, 2009, 04:24

Still can't stop flying this even though I've spent a fortune over this past week on payware!!

**ryanbatc** · August 27th, 2009, 05:54

Is this thing on an English site yet? English manual?

**MHAircraft** · August 27th, 2009, 06:07

Just FYI, Taiwan AF Mirages are all based at RCPO Hsinchu AFB.

Le Mirage est, vraiment un magnifique travail. Si je peu, et je suis pas sur si vous attendez ce forum, je vai vous demander si será possible de faire le Mirage um peu plus simple de piloter (aircraft.config?)U ne compilation des commands plus necessaires?. Il ya des gens, comme moi, qui ont pas besoin d´un realism total. C´est merveilleuse votre travail, mais de cette façon nous pouvions choisir…
Merci Bien, a bientot
Hi <o

></o

>
This is really a jewel…what a piece of work. In French I just asked Rollus if it will be possible to make a version with “standard procedures”, for those of us, who admiring this kind of realism, just want to go for a simpler ride…I´m familiar with French, manage to start engine and gear, last night, have to read all those 58? pages in the manual or, at least, print the ones that I need. Should there be a compilation of it…the most necessary. Just want to play around and have to learn all those systems…<o

></o

>
Anyway, hats of for perhaps the best piece of work I have ever seen in a Simulator, and free!!!<o

></o

>
Many thanks to Rollus<o

YES YES YES loving the shots, doesn't matter about English lol, I know my way arpooun d any cockpit, loving the shots!!!
Regards Pete!!! (Pissed as a rat here hahahaha)
£rd shot from MHAircraft is just wonderful!!!!

**JensOle** · August 27th, 2009, 14:15

Superb shots! But it is easy to see that there are some errors on the original textures regarding the grey shade of the under wing/fuselage and the sides of the front fuselage. The light grey should continue on the underside. This is not criticism, just an observation on this superb model

**peter12213** · August 27th, 2009, 14:56

I agree but look at this Jens, I love your work...

But..

Chariot's of the skies or what, I'd personally love to see your work but as we know, no joy from Rollus!!!
r

Big mistake in my opinion Rollus mate, you've just deneyed the best repainters in history, the ability to work on the best freeware FSX Jet available , your loss mate!
(Hope you change you mind on that one matey!)

**Xilence** · August 27th, 2009, 15:28

It's "Le Chevaliers du Ciel"

Or "The Skywarriors" =O.

Has anyone else by the way noticed his site has gone offline? :X

And peter, could you post a how-to for your vapor modification?

**SirBenn21** · August 27th, 2009, 18:29

Sorry for been a pain, but please explain the way to clean up the folder. From 900MB to about 200MB

Thanks

Ben

**pttyq** · August 27th, 2009, 19:58

ok, here we go
refer to post #140

1. create a 'texture.common' folder and copy the 26 common textures into it (I've kept vetvol.bmp as an unique texture for each repaint)
2. delete these common textures from the repaint folders
3. create inside each repaint folder (but not inside the texture.common!), a texture.cfg file containing the text:

[fltsim]
fallback.1=..\texture.common

4. each repaint folder has a sub-folder called 1024x1024; cut and paste the 6 bmp files from this folder to the repaint folder, deleting the 6 dds related files
5. (optional) rename the original 'texture' folder as 'texture.2-EA', but don't forget to change the [fltsim.0] texture entry of the aircraft.cfg file...

Now you have 26 files inside 'texture.common' and 12 files inside the repaint folders. Go to the recycle bin and see how much memory you're about to wipe out from your system!

I hope this makes some sense!

**SirBenn21** · August 27th, 2009, 20:04

Thanks pttyq

When I get home I'll give it a go.

Ben

He most likely exceeded his allotted bandwidth for the month. At 290MB a pop it doesn't last long. Luckily for those who don't have a copy yet a new month begins next week. Following the procedures outlined above for using a common texture folder and then repackaging would help in that regard for the next month.

**peter12213** · August 28th, 2009, 09:31

The Vapor mod uses the payware Skysim mirage vapor effect! (Doesn't look good at night as it is a light effect)

Put this under the lights section in your aircraft.cfg
light.9 = 6, 6.25, -0.00, -0.4, fx_Mir_G.fx ,
light.10 = 6, 6.25, 0.00, -0.4, fx_Mir_G.fx ,

In the panel.cfg put
gauge92=Skysim!Mir_G_Flare, 1,1,1,1
In the panel folder you will need to put the Skysim.cab from the mirage III panel folder and thats it!

(I have the vapor coming off the intake strakes because thats where I saw it on the real thing, just change the numbers in the aircraft.cfg to put it where you want it!)

Ive just done this and it worked great, except for one thing, the centre tank what texture file is it that controls that!

Cheers, Henk.

No apologies for my avatar! :P

**ryanbatc** · August 28th, 2009, 10:56

Have we found a place to D/L and install this thing with English directions yet? I could never register on that site not to mention even with the Google translations its hard to follow.

**JensOle** · August 28th, 2009, 11:14

The model was just available from Rolands web site.

Well, there's no rule for the case that his site goes offline, so maybe one could "bridge the supply gap" to help spreading this masterful piece of freeware... *Halo of innocence*

For a second there I actually thought you were being serious.

The author's written request/instructions trump any and all "rules" or
scenarios people can dream up.
