We are going to get a flood of epic paints once the update is released! These are beautiful, Jankees and TiAir! Especially love that RCAF bird.

Discord reports the update is in testing, with release sometime between this weekend and next week sometime, and the wing mirroring is indeed fixed.

And I'll be on a fieldtrip until Saturday...
So patience will be needed

Have Big Radials indicated anywhere that when the update is released, they will advise purchasers via email?

They have with their past releases, so I'm sure that will continue.

Update is available - v1.02.

[jankees]

but the update does not solve the mirrored wing textures unfortunately...

[DennyA]

Aaargh. It was supposed to.

Not a painter, so what do mirrored wing textures do?
Look like?

It wont allow you to put lets say a ensignia on one wing because it will show up on both.

or a registration would be on the other wing as well, but mirrored, really annoying. It also excludes camouflage patterns like RAF aircraft, since the pattern on both wings would be the same

When I saw it was updated, I went to the site to grab it. I then paused until I heard something positive from the painters here, mainly Jankees. When I saw that it was still mirrored, I put it on the back burner again. I won't spend the money and hope it's fixed. I've seen that happen over the past 20+ years of simming - not everything, no matter how obvious it is, gets fixed. Again, waiting to see the corrections here.

I bought directly at Big Radials - they sent me a notification/download link by email.

If you bought it from OrbX, FYI that as of the morning of April 8 US time they still haven't posted the update.

Reading the comments on the Discord, some issues definitely slipped through (like the wing mirroring fix not taking), so I'd expect a 1.0.3 to follow before too long anyway. Thus, I'm not feeling anxious to jump on this one as I'll wait for the next one to really get back into the Norseman.

Waiting.
Anyone seen a list of what was fixed?

Mirroring was fixed in the short-lived 1.0.2. Here's the full changelog so far:

V1.0.1

• Com and Nav circuit fix for FLT files
• Spelling corrected
• Primer fixed
• VR Zoom
• TV switch
• Light cockpit variants
• Overhauled RMI gauge
• Mooring lights fixed
• First bushtrip included

v1.0.2

• Better Floats positioning
• Initial Anchor logic
• First pass internal sounds
• Adjusted Oil Temp timing
• Unmirrored wing textures

1.0.3

• Low oil temps on idle
• Floats light labelled as landing light FIXED
• No strobes on wingtip
• Flickering on slip indicator
• Hole in rear fuselage where tail wheel attaches
• Captain of the clouds reg on ZMX and USAAF liveries
• Checklist added to Bush variant
• Wing texture
• Engines sounds updated and adjusted

The sounds are a big step up. Internal sounds have a nice low end now. The wing texture referred to a splotchy paint issue on one of the liveries they fixed.

Thanks for Change Logs.
Orbx has the update.

Jankees - will you be putting your liveries on .to, or somewhere else?

I will, but you have to be patient, I'm on a fieldtrip in France with my students for three weeks

I will, but you have to be patient...

You do realize you're asking this crowd to be patient, right???

A three week field trip!?!?!?! Man, we always got dragged to a damned zoo! The SAME zoo as the time before! Be back in 6 hours! LOL!

Brave man.
3 weeks is a mass evacuation, not a field trip!
Trust their parents shower you with Wine & Brie for taking on the task.
