Well there you go, that is excellent, I will back off though if you guys just want to do it here at SOH, as I said, I do not care where the files are as long as they are there.

**jeansy** · January 12th, 2011, 15:03

its great news from Rob

**OleBoy** · January 12th, 2011, 15:38

Now that's what I'm talkin about. Good deal Cag. On with the show

**Cag40Navy** · January 12th, 2011, 15:43

The only thing that i could ask is when someone uploads a paint here or at OZx, that you provide a link in here! Ill edit my top link with all the links as we go along. Lets have fun and i look forward to it!

**JayKae** · January 12th, 2011, 16:00

I'd say just keep them here at SOH to avoid confusion, as someone stipulated at an earlier stage he was most active here at SOH so it's only right to have them here, thanks CAG!

**OleBoy** · January 12th, 2011, 16:03

All should be fine going into the new library structure. It's actually easily searchable

**Cag40Navy** · January 12th, 2011, 16:46

List updated in first post.

**OleBoy** · January 12th, 2011, 16:52

Lets not forget, there are a ton of FS2004 paints that Bob did. Actually more FS9 than for FSX.

So now what..lol?

**Cag40Navy** · January 12th, 2011, 16:54

We just sit on our bootys and wait for people to jump in.

**Cag40Navy** · January 12th, 2011, 18:23

Anyone can contribute!

Looking forward to this picking up!

**JayKae** · January 12th, 2011, 19:11

Me too I wish I had more

Aside from his work, how is he doing? Any idea if or when we will hear from him soon? -Mike Z.

Cant tell you for sure Mike. Kinda hinted at some stuff but it wouldnt be my place to say something.

***modelr*** · January 12th, 2011, 19:59

I have probably 98% of his stuff, but it's not cataloged under his name. It's in the aircraft by authorfolders. So if anyone has a list of Bob's stuff by aircraft, I can get it uploaded.

Check if there s readme in them and look for Bob's name... That may be the ticket.

**vora** · January 13th, 2011, 03:37

I have uploaded two of Bob's photorealistic repaints for the Alphasim Sikorsky S-55 Chickasaw. They can be found under "FSX Skins".
Those two repaints really brought the Chickasaw up to FSX standards, IMHO.

The links: S-55 Dirty Army and S-55 Dirty USMC

I'll scan through my downloads for other BananaBob repaints...

**Cag40Navy** · January 13th, 2011, 03:51

Awesome, Thank you! Lets keep adding folks. Ill add it to the first post when i get back.

Hey Mike,

I actually had a chance to chat with him on facebook on Tuesday, the 11th....
He and his daughter are doing well, he said he misses his SOH family and he is ready to comeback anytime soon....

Can't wait to see him pop up here....

Yeh, right... 802 author folders in FS9, and 255 in FSX. Inside these folders are the individual aircraft folders. Inside those are the individual repaints/effects/sounds/mods specific to the aircraft. These do not include generic panels/sounds/effects.

My paints/effects/sounds/panels add-ons are not cataloged by authors, only the aircraft.

My FSX Aircraft downloads folder is 30.9GB, 4,277 files in 588 folders.
My FS9 Aircraft downloads folder is 184GB, 161,015 files in 11,686 folders.
Gonna take me awhile. This is just downloaded flyable FREEWARE storage, not my installed, nor AI stuff, nor my PAYWARE.

I downloaded everything from when Bob had his two Screenshot sites, including the other authors he hosted, but they went into the aircraft folders the paints/effects, etc, they were for.

Yes, I'm an insatiable collector, with lots of high GB storage and high speed DSL.

***jankees*** · January 13th, 2011, 04:25

I think I have one or two of his Autocrat paints, absolute masterpieces.
Do we have those yet in the line-up?

**OleBoy** · January 13th, 2011, 04:28

A lot of B-Bobs stuff is on Avsim and Flightsim. Though a search for BananaBob doesn't bring up much. Try searching for Bob Rivera. It might be a thought to download all of it and put it here.

**franzi** · January 13th, 2011, 09:03

Look here in the Library, there are many Repaints from Bob and a lot of his Propreplacements.

I can upload here his Repaints for Alphasim Texan
Sugarlandexpress from Milton,s Invader
Repaints for the AH Freeware Hawker Hurricane
And a lot of Propreplacements

But it takes a few Days

Franz LOWG:salute:

**vora** · January 13th, 2011, 09:24

Bob's files here on Warbirds Archive, on AVSIM and on FlightSim.com are almost identical.
So if I find a repaint I crosscheck it with the archive here and only upload it if it hasn't been done already.
Nevertheless I have found another three of his repaints that IIRC were only on his forum at ScreenshotArtist.

The links:
DodoSim Bell 206 "Australian Army"
DodoSim Bell 206 "US Army"
Carenado C 182 RG "VH-RIG"

**JayKae** · January 13th, 2011, 11:20

To go through all those files quickly get this:

then in your search type Bob Rivera and well... Bob's your Uncle lol
