As soon as Rami is able to get to it, it will be available for download. Thanks again to Tibor Kokai for his kind permission to move forward with the Native FSX Conversion and Bluebear for his excellent work in putting the 4 variants through the complex task of converting each one. Hope everyone enjoys the results.

[SeanTK]

Very much looking forward to utilizing it! Thanks to all involved for the work and seeing this to completion.

Thank you Ed, for this scenery! I installed it in P3DV4. The only Orbx addon I currently have installed is their HD Buildings. Any idea what I can to fix this runway issue? Also, there is a building at the end of the runway. Maybe the Orbx addon is the reason? Thanks, Pete

This is that airport (100 Aker Wood-TN41) in P3D_V4.4:

Not sure why yours looks like that Pete. I run Orbx Global Basic and Global Vector. Yours shows no autogen vegetation or buildings. . .all of that is contained in the scenery and texture folders. . .as long as you just activated it in your scenery library and it's above any other addon scenery mesh or any other addon airports that are in that immediate area (none that I can see), it should be fine.

[Navy Chief]

Thanks Ed. I just need to reinstall Orbx Global & Vector. That should fix it. I'll report back! Pete

Hopefully it does Pete but what you show in your pics doesn't look like anything that installing those two would help. The missing trees are in the texture folder listed as *.agn files and all the buildings are found in the "Airport_Buildings_AP.bgl" file. Did you leave the scenery folder intact and just activate it or did you move files around a bit?

[ToniJH]

Hi, there might be conflict with your ORBX and Falcon scenery files. I disabled ABT_TN41.bgl and all other files that might conflict with Falcon scenery. All works pretty fine, i also have ORBX Vector and landclasses installed. If you reinstall Vector, the all ORBX files that contains that TN41 area will be there again and make conflict with Falcons scenery. So be sure, there is no other TN41 bgl files installed and in use in P3d folders.

Here is screenshot from my P3D sim:

Thanks Ed and Ulrich! What a nice surprise! And the L410 is workable also in P3Dv4.5. After a short flight: really nice convertion with alot of models good and frameratefriendly VC.

Is it an open project? I could do some work in Cockpit and Exterior (materials, textures, details etc.).

What a great model, thanks Ed and Ulrich! I love the early model where the front wheel does not retract, pretty unique. I fully expected the book to go flying as I maneuvered.

I only have one issue, note the artificial horizon gauge in the center of the console, it does not seam to move, note how I am in a pretty steep bank but its still centered. Is there something I have to do to un-gage it? I am using P3D v4.5

[falcon409]

The two switches on the panel to the right of that gauge. . .click those and I believe that uncages the gauge.

Thanks Thomas, glad you like the new Lets.
I personly would be happy about some more touches for the Lets.
Some bump and spec textures or some new paintings perhaps.
I saw, that the german airforce had used also some L-410 in the past ,http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/images/icons/icon23.gif
but Ed has startet the project and has to give his okay.
Let's see what he thinks about it.

Thomas that would be fine. I did what I had the ability to do in the VC but your talents go well beyond that so whenever you want to tackle the 410, feel free to do so.

[TiAr]

Thank you. I am sure I can do some improvements with respect of your and the original authors work. I will start with a new paintkit with spec and bump of exterior textures. Than I could do some coding work with the missing 3D knops and switches and some mods of cockpit. We will see.

I did a real flight as passenger with a Silver Air L-410UVP-E20 some years ago in Italy. I enjoyed the flight very much. This is my intension.

Thomas

[falcon409]

Since the initial release here on Sim-Outhouse the LET-410 has a gone over 1100 downloads total for all three download sites. It has also been uploaded to Simviation and Flightsim.com. Not bad!!

Here you see the potential of this bird. This is the very first picture on my way doing bump textures of exterior (fuselage) and a lot of more modifications...

Thomas

[TiAr]

Work is going on. Did a lot of basics with reflections and new base textures.

[falcon409]

I appreciate the work you're doing Thomas. I heard from Tibor (I had sent him the full package to explore). He was very pleased with what we had done and so I would imagine he'll be very interested in your progress as well. He did mention that he felt the liveries really needed to be updated to 4096 textures and I have to agree. The original textures have seen better days and due to the small texture sizes really lack detail. That might be something that one of our "House artists" could take on as time permits and separate from your work so that when you've completed the work you feel it needs the liveries won't hold up the release. Just a thought.

Yes Ed, really good idea. I will finishing base repaintkit with 4096 with layers and share it with the team. I need it for model modifications with specs and bumps.

Thomas

[TiAr]

Fuselage texture now with 4096 and bumps... Overall it is a very nice model also in P3Dv4.5. But needs a lot of work with materials and textures.

[Postbaer61]

Great job, Thomas. The bump textures looking great.
I really looking forward, how it will look like when its finished.
@ ED
Great to hear that Tibor is pleased with our work and i think he will
be even more pleased when Thomas has done his work.
BTW, she has meanwhile more than 1700 downloads.

Looking pretty darn good...;)

I've screen-grabbed the VC and made a 2D widescreen panel using existing gauges [except the one that wasn't there - Altimeter bottom left - added that myself]....for those for whom VCs give them vertigo [or something]...;)

Looks close enough to the VC....I'll upload it soonish as a separate self-contained 'panel' entry...ie 'panel.2D' in your ac.cfg file....;)

I love the shiny metallic skins.

Edit again....
What are the odds?....had the wrong 'Manual' on the dashboard....could have led to 'problems'....

Looks marvelous, Thomas !!

Egad....those pilot manuals....looks like there are 4 different versions.... so 4 different 2D panels...;)

[falcon409]

Actually only 2: The FG model is only slightly different, the others are all the same (UVP, UVP-T and UVP-E) and all derivatives of the UVP. I wouldn't worry about the manuals. Just use the Jeppesen and be done with it.

Ah...but think of the dramas when the pilot reaches for the wrong manual....;)

I've done all 4 versions anyway...simple change of graphic. The issue is more a sensible way of differentiating....probably the simplest is just 4 separate panel folders - named to suit the models...;)

[Jafo]

Needless to say there were 5 versions.....FG ...UVP...UVP-E....UVP-T...and UVP-T Lithuanian.
Gonna have to finish with this critter and upload them before I find any more...;)

[TiAr]

I did a second one with the basic: L410 UVP-T. It has another basic texture set than UVP E20 - it is another model. I removed the ladder from model. Now it is usable as a parachute plane, too. They are many around until today.

https://up.picr.de/36784563nz.jpg

Perhaps it is a little bit hard for FSX users. This is the first picture of native Let L410 UVP-E in P3DV4.5 with PBR. Postbaer sent me yesterday a new model with the PBR-texture set I modified today.

For the work we did there are 4 versions. . .I didn't consider the Lithuanian livery as a separate version. Was it modified for Military use. . .yes most likely, however as far as the available models are concerned it is just a livery not a different version.

Yep...but obviously the VC images in the texture folder had a change....namely that darn flight manual... so for the 2D I'd either have to set a path to the texture folders in the panel.cfg and have people put the different 2D panels in each/all of them....or upload a 5th panel just for the Lithuanian and have people change the panel= line in the Aircraft.cfg instead.
6 of one and half a dozen of the other....;)

We've done our part, you do whatever you feel you need to.

While we all wait for the enhanced graphics for the model from TiAr, I've today uploaded my renditions of 2D Panels for the 410.
They're high-res and essentially straight copies from the VCs [plural].
I took a wee liberty with the FG model with the glass nose...so you'll see the ground rushing up at you from bottom/right....not essentially accurate angle of sight, but it's all fun...;)

First thank you Jafo for you great work.

All four exterior models are nearly finished. They will come with two versions: first FSX with reflexions via GlobalEnv_AC_Chrome. You can control reflexions via alpha of L410_fuse.dds. Yery easy to repaint.

Second native P3Dv4.5 with PBR. There you have to repaint the metallic textures, too. But this is also easily done, if you look to the alphas.

And now we have a fifth model. I did a skydiver version of UVP with 3-blades. It is WIP. Picture shows PBP of P3D4.5.

https://up.picr.de/36835147hc.jpg

If you want to see all models with PBR, look to P3D forum.

Thomas

[Jafo]

Looking good....;)

[TiAr]

After releasing the P3DV4.4+ PBR exterior and interior models of the LET with a new western style grey panel and two more models (NG and UVP Skydiver), Bluebaer and me still working on FSX update, with all the new stuff. We created 20 new liveries for these very nice models. At least, it was not possible to mix PBR and FSX releated versions to avoid conflicts of the users, so we decided to clearly seperate both versions.

Stay tuned.

Thomas

[falcon409]

Thanks to you and Ulrich for the work you've done. . .it is spectacular.

[TiAr]

Now the LET-410 FSX V2 is just finished and on final. Two models LET-410NG and LET-410UVP Skydiving are completly new builds. You will get 20 new repaints, at least 6 different LET-410 variants and one new grey cockpit style with modern western avionics.

Beautiful Job Thomas and Bluebear. Thanks for the hard work. I'll send a package off to Tokai as well. I'm sure he'll be thrilled with what you've done.:applause:

[Jafo]

Looks like I have another 2D Panel to do...;)

[TiAr]

Our V2 is availabe in Warbirds Library. Many thanks to the SOH-mods for the very nice cooperation here. Next to the features list we fixed some minor issues with power settings and camera defininitions. And yes, the new model with Interflug repaints is in the pack.

Have a nice time with the PWDT LET-410 V2 also in FSX and P3D 32-bit.

Always three greens
