    I think it could be a wrong idea. To many deeper programing here. Maybe only the shape and few basic controls will work so no big fun. They have plans for MSFS but when full SDK will be relesed by Asobo so not now.

    If you planning on doing the interior than I most likely wont get it...doing the interior was the only reason I was thinking about it...it needs it..

I wonder why the developers opted for the green look - I know the aluminium protection paint in this era of aircraft especially military was the dreaded khaki green of the aluminium anti corrosion paint but Pan Am was still the user and buyer and they were always fussy about the 'Pan Am' Look!
    For interest here is photograh of the Foynes replica - standard Pan Am colours - curious!
    Btw. from B.314 manual:

    "Interior DecorationMake no doubt about it, the interior of the B-314 looked like a flying Art Deco palace. The following iscopied directly from the B-314 Maintenance Manual, section III and describes the interior of the clipper."

    YOYO Good find there resolves the issue nicely thanks for that. Goes to show cannot believe a lot of what you find on the net sometimes it seems. Not that I am dissappointed. They were certainly going for the luxury art deco look then same as Imperial Airways had the Indian Raj look until the S23 turned up and that was vanilla plain ala British Rail.

    For sure Matt, just Id like to wait for HT1 for v5.1 because it's supposed to change something in the lighting in VC, so its "template" only (HT1 will be in this or next week perhaps). If you want it now just PM me but its WIP version.

    I didnt touch it yet, will check. Which means suddenly going empty? Did you dump fuel before?

    Do you have Auto Exposure=ON? Try it OFF. ON also spoils the view outside, such as too bright clouds, sky and surroundings.

    Here are my examples. In this case auto exposure helps for interior but affects outside too (sky, fog, clouds ect). I personally fly with OFF now and Im waititing for HT1 changes.

    Wing tank refuel set to port, then select a Hydrostabilizer fuel compartment (port inboard was my first one) and flip on a fuel transfer pump from the FE station, I went from having roughly 600 gallons in the wing tank to zero instantly.

    I started a new scenario and was able to reproduce it with any selection of any of the hydrostabilizer compartments, port side hydro tank zeroed out the port tanks, starboard size zeroed out the starboard tanks. I stuck with it and couldn't tell if the transfer pumps were working at all.

    The hand pump on the far left would actually move fuel, but unless the flight engineer is built like Pumping Iron Schwarzenegger, I don't think that's a viable method of transferring fuel since in order to do that, you have to line up the tanks to transfer which would zero out the wing tanks.

    (meaning the poor flight engineer is furiously pumping drop by drop into the wing tanks barely keeping the engines alive!)

    I never touched the fuel dump switches, so that can't be it

    Thanks,,,have you found which textures are for the night with interior lights on?

  18. #68
    I didnt touch night textures yet (will do) but what I see - model has only night textures for gauges, the rest its own 3D effect (use cockpit lamp, flight instruments ON and knobs for 3D effect on instruments for both pilots, engines and gyro).

    btw. Nice idea with posters too .

    Yes Tesco the BOAC B314's are a must! They are the other half of the B314 story during WW2. The Bristol, Berwick or Bangor? I guess it would have to be the Berwick, the one Winston flew back to the UK. OTP but a certain Kiwi (Jack Burgess) who flew the first Short S23 England to Australia and NZ and before that in the RAF with the Rangoons to Australia much earlier, was a Captain for BOAC on the B314 throughout the war.
