    MiG-29 For FSX?

    Does anybody know of a good freeware or payware MiG-29 for FSX? It's my favorite fighter jet. Period. :mixedsmi:

    Many thanks,

    Walter

    Take a look at http://www.afs-design.de/. I have the Mig29 and it's good.

    This is the one I have and the MiG I fly the most by a long shot. It really gives a sense of acceleration, more so than any other of the dozens and dozens of other jets I have.

    Default gauges in the cockpit, fuzzy and weird aligned textures, wheel bays not even modelled in 3D from the look of the screenshots..? (Not to mention that the ockpit is way too wide!)

    Looks like the upgraded FREE Iris MiG-29 is a much better choice for now!

    In the SOH library there is some fresh repaints by L'iguane for the Iris Mig-29. He's very talented! Here's a sample he posted in the FS9 forum:



    L'iguane uses the old Iris FS9 Mig-29A model, now freeware, but with little or no changes, his repaints work fine with the P3DV4 conversion made in 2018 by IS4G Design Workshop.

    The virtual cockpit is a bit disapointing thou. Iris released its Mig way back in 2005, and back then this VC was quite ok. But since the IS4G P3D version is actually a regular FSX native model, you can try to merge the exterior Mig-29 with another VC of your choice (Mark Harper's Su-27 VC could be an option...). This will keep you busy, in case you're suffering from cabin fever...

    There is of course the Freestylestd MiG-29. Native FSX/P3D and has a more than decent VC!

    And very reasonably priced!

    That project is on hold, could be a permanent hold. So I wouldn't hold your breath...

    I don't know about the AFS Mig - but the former payware (now freeware) Iris model is in my view, the one to go with. Danny Garnier did a great FSX upgrade for it - search on Simviation. Some fantastic repaints, highly detailed - lovely model. There is a really nice USMC Aggressor livery for it, I believe on Flightsim.

    It's on my "list" of models to do a gauge update on - I don't like the American gauges that Danny Garnier used, and plan to substitute at least the core flying gauges to Cyrillic gauges - that'll be a few months away, I'd say.

    Thread on this model is here: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...hlight=fulcrum

    A few unresolved issues, but nothing major. This is the one I'd go with.

    Thanks people! I have the IRIS one, but I was hoping for a different one. I'll have to look at the Lotus one... Now registering...
