Here's how I did it

1 change the eyepoint in the aircraft.cfg to

[Views]
eyepoint=84.8, -2.55, 12.4


2 copy the area51 texture folder to the C-17 folder (Because there is a folder already called texture.shared, I renamed the new texture folder texture.panel)


3 copy the area51 interior mdl in the model folder to the c-17 model folder and edit the config to say the following

[models]
normal=ALPHA_C-17
interior=Area51_Galaxy_interior.MDL


4 then rename the c-17 panel folder to Orig_panel
and copy the area 51 panel to the C-17

5 then amend the texture config file all texture.cfg's (one in every texture folder)to say the following

[fltsim]

fallback.1=..\texture.shared
fallback.2=..\texture.bump
fallback.3=..\texture.panel

Someone got their hands on a paint kit and has some talent.

Looks like our old friend Yago, perhaps?

Personally I've always found photo textures don't fit into my non-photo FSX scenery.

.....

That's exactly what I thought when I saw it, looks very much like the one he did for the AS B-52.

[Odie]

That's a nice repaint.....

DOUBLE POST...SORRY

[ColoKent]

....Capt Sim would consider scraping the FLIR turrets off the bottom and sides of the nose, and get rid of the new-era ECM pods so we could have an early H model to paint in that '60s SAC look (hanging a pair of AGM-28 [aka Hound Dogs] would be wonderful, but is probably too much to ask). I'd settle for a FLIR-less version. If they would do that, CHROME DOME II, here I'd come!!!

Kent :salute:

[dougal]

I'm really beginning to like this aircraft.....

Download the free manual if it was not in the payware aircraft download. If you have it already then it is in your CaptainSim folder? You will see animations pictured.

Found this at Flightsim.com, though FS9. I even like how they show the view ahead in a seperate panel for the EO nose sensors.

Also, check out Rayman's pics of various skins his buddy has designed...awesome!

OK....call me a hypocrite, I deserve it.....I went ahead and bought the new CS B-52 even though I said I wouldn't buy a half finished product.

But DAMN.......just........DAMN

Those screen shots in the CS email notification saying it was released were too tempting and adding in the price of $15 was the icing on the cake and just made me cave.

I know it has a 747 VC but for now I can live with that because this plane just looks so damn good on the outside. it flies very nice too!

Lateral-G ..... you got my vote , what is it with the Boeing company .. they just seem to get right every time .. now with Captsim taken a shot a there nemisis 'the cold war' bomber , there previous history with supreb models , i think we need to egg em on so they can complete this 52

Looks like AlphaSims B-52 payware panel bmp has been edited.

:ernae: My feelings EXACTLY! This model is superb!
You guess - is this a photo or screenshot??? Unbelievable!

I don't know if this has been asked before, and I don't want to read through the entire thread I missed: Can piglet or someone else release a VC?

If Milviz released one of their AWESOME VCs, I'd pay. Doesn't Milviz already have one done? I just can't bring myself to buy it without a VC.

MILVIZ has posted in this thread they are not going to do one.

There are instructions on how to adapt the A51 C5M to the B-52 in this thread.

It is worth the $15.

Apparently there are numerous paint schemes in the works.
