Ouch, on the evening before I leave on holiday....first thing when I get back!

Thanks Mike for a great package for a great aircraft. Let the repaints flow.

[TheGrunt]

No kidding! First FTX Global, then this. My credit card is crying, but I'm smiling.

A vist to a very busy and cloudy Duxford. I'll upload this repaint this evening.

Complete package downloaded and installed flawlessly. The aircraft sounds are really fantastic. Thanks Mike.

Don't forget to thank Bernt, Wozza, Greg, John, Tom, Huub and Ferry! Everyone did a superb job. Bernt took so much care with this project that the last version of the airfile, with prop RPM behaviour tweaked yet again, arrived just this morning. That's dedication.

I should mention that the P40N will be available on the Flight Replicas website ONLY for the time being (a week or so), until I know that there are no things to correct. After that, the P-40N will be sent to the usual vendors. I'll let everyone know when the P-40N is available elsewhere.

Hi Mike

Fantastic product - im a bit concerned though as in Prepar3D I don't appear to have any glazing effect in the VC - like on the Boomerang. Its just like there are no windows and just fresh air. Is that correct?

Loving the sound!

Love the choice of helmet and lifejacket etc - very clever.

It ain't much when it isn't........

Crikey , I'm late of the mark .... really going to have ta to catch up to the rest of ya .. .. installing the 'World' so lets see how spots the P-40 has a looksie <input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><input jscode="leoInternalChangeDone()" onclick="if(typeof(jsCall)=='function'){jsCall();} else{setTimeout('jsCall()',500);}" id="jsProxy" type="hidden">

Do you mean as seen from inside the VC, or on the outside in the external view?

I believe Tom Stovall has been flying the P-40N in P3D, and hasn't reported any issues. If his screenshot earlier in the thread is from P3D, then I do see glazing, although I can't tell if the reflectivity is there. Perhaps Tom can let us know?

There is nothing reflected in the VC glass, as I couldn't see anything worthwhile to do in any of the in-flight videos I've seen or the real P-40N I had the pleasure of going over, if that's what you mean?

Someone asked earlier if the Curtis tail number font was available (there may have been more than one, but this is the style most often seen in factory-painted P-40N's). The numbers are now available on the Flight Replicas download page here.

[mike_cyul]

Just to let you know that Jeansy has very kindly made the pilot's uniform available in Commonwealth blue, and can be found here:

I thank you for the hard work that I am sure went into making this plane happen... WOW!!!!!!!!.....is all I can say... Wonderful recreation....... Loving every minute of it!!!!!

Mike, the photo in my previous post was from FSX. I will try to duplicate the exact same look in P3D to show you any difference there may be. Back soon with the picture. Here is the same picture in P3D as best I can match the lighting. Very difficult to get the lighting exact.



By the way John's "Little Jeanne" is posted in the library.

Hi Mike - OK - I was referring to vc glass - just wanted to make sure that no textures were missing!

Just working on my first repaint!

Trying to do the one that was found in Egypt recently flown by Flt S D Copping. But im finding my patience is not great today with so many lines not matching. Great paintkit if its a simple scheme! May have to give this up

[roger-wilco-66]

OMG it's out!!! Off to buy it!

Cheers,
Mark

Perhaps consider it practice...the one in the desert was an E variant, and that will indeed be coming out at some point in the future.

You could also try using the RAF paint scheme (unless you purchased the "Early" package), drag that onto the paintkit .psd, and add and remove from that. Just a thought!

Thanks Mike and team! The plane is beautiful, the start procedure is very detailed and the sound package awesome (Try it with headphones) .... :salute:
