FSX
Hey all,
For those of you that own Kodiaks, there is a new update pack for it. This makes it Build 2.6 now.
UPDATES CARRIED OUT:
* Garmin G1000 Graphics update to the Garmin bazel graphics along top right edge, refined
* Garmin G1000 now has;
1. Parking Brakes in Announcement / Annunciator section
2. Water Rudder in Announcement / Annunciator section
3. Gear Up 'Amphib' mode in Announcement / Annunciator section
* Over Torque effect in flight causing left hand pull and roll of aircraft when using extreme realism settings has been deleted
* Turbine Torque readout on ECIAS section of Garmin system now reads to redline (was only going to half way mark)
* New 2D panel has ratio corrected graphics and Garmins. We found that a very few computers could not handle the slightly 'out of ratio' of the Garmins gauges, causing some CTD's. The panel graphics were redone to accommodate the taller ratio of the Garmins and is now properly sized.
(Note that the Bill Leaming 'wide screen' panels option is still in the package and you can easily 'activate' the 'ws' panel by adding in the 'ws' into 'Panel' entry in the vairous aircraft Registry's at the top of the 'aircraft.cfg' file.
If you have any repaints in your present Kodiak package, then please do the 'manual' installation of this package, and carefully copy/paste your present aircraft Registry's into your 'new' Build 2.6 aircraft.cfg file so that all of your repaints show up.
To manually install this pack;
* Create a Temp Folder on your Desktop
* Run the Updater Installer
* Select type of sim to install to; FS9 or FSX
* Select 'Browse' when asked final permission and shown file location target
* Browse to Temp Folder
* Click OK
* After the installer runs, open your Temp Folder
* Open another folder and browse to your Flight Simulator folder
* Copy/paste your files in the Temp Folder into your Flight Sim folder, placing the files from one folder, into the actual FS folders
When you are done, your Build 2.5 Kodiak will then become Build 2.6.

For those of you that had 'any' issues on CTD's, this should fix it. The 2D panel PFD screen seemed to be the real culprit and that is now fixed.
For those of you that had issues with Torque and left-wing-down effects in extreme realism settings, that is now fixed also.
I go into some details on this at my Blog here;

Next announcement!
I am proud to present or announce that Robert 'BananaBob' Rivera has released a Kodiak Photoreal Textures Super Pack. This is 9 of his textures in one bundle. These include both FSX and FS9 and this also features an auto installer. So if you have issues with installing paint schemes yourself, this will handle it for you. If you want to install these yourself (if you have repaints already on your system), then run it and direct the install to a Temp folder and transfer the files manually. On the last one, the aircraft config, copy/paste your existing Registry texture repaints onto the new 'aircraft.cfg' supplied with the paint pack, and you should be good to go.
This is donationware and sells for a mere $2.00, the same price as most Apps in iTunes at Apple.com.
Get the update 'first' for the Kodiak, then if you purchase the textures pack, it will auto-synch with the upgrade. Roberts paint pack has the new 'aircraft.cfg' file already installed.
Its a pretty cool package. I highly recommend it. Instant purchase, instant download, auto-install....
