    SOH A-26 Invader FSX Converted Files Download

    Hi all,

    It was a great pleasure to convert this aircraft to FSX, with many thanks to Milton Shupe for providing his source files for the original FS9 models!

    This conversion is fairly basic, but the models are now true FSX native. The aircraft will now display, in every detail, as they were intended to display in FS9, plus some of the additional perks of FSX.

    You must first have the original SOH A-26 for FS9 installed into FSX, as I have only included the new files and the changed/edited files. If you have repaints installed, that call upon these FSX models, you will need to copy over the texture files from one of the contained texture folders.

    For now, I am providing the converted files through Media Fire, which you can download at the following link. If after a few days there are no issues reported, I will then upload the files to the SOH library.

    I hope you enjoy it! If you do happen to spot something that you think is a problem/issue with the models, please let me know.

    A-26

    Thanks John, what a treat to fly this beautiful bird in FSX. When I first came to Redding, California the A-26 was one of the main fire fighting aircraft stationed at the USFS base at Redding Muni. The Tracker was also there. Great work.

    One of my favorite airplane movies... "Always"!!! Since Milton's A-26 has been refitted with some nice upgrades (FSX native), it's time to do some painting.

    CG model of an A-26 Fire Eaters, similar to the one Pete flew in Always.


    Plastic model kit of Ali's Fire Eater PBY.


    Did a quick little clip, exploring different angles. The A-26 bay doors where open, but FSRecorder didn't pick that up in the playback.

    I've just copied John's new glass and prop files into the B-26K texture folders - everything seems to be OK. Not FSX-native obviously but useable I think.

    John or anybody,

    Quick question... How do you hide the yoke in the FSX version? I can't get the slash key to work.

    Thanks,
    Obie
