Milton Shupe Scores Again

glass fix????

He may have been referring to P3D where in one version the glass is a little dark If that's the case, just darkening the alpha channel more should correct that.

Sweet shots, dvj!

I'm not at my sim pc till later in the weekend - so can't download yet - but are the prop/glass fixes included, or does one have to do something funky with the 8bit toolbox thingamajiggy?

Can't wait to try this one ...

In DX10, make sure 8bit is selected in Steve's DX10 Fixer tool box.
the glass fix was a file posted earlier in this thread. Needs to be placed in each texture folder.
Prop fix for FSX comes with the original download, including FSX config file and sound.

BTW, I find the audio for this beast intoxicating.

Thanks dvj.......

I added a clean version of the Red Tail to my aircraft.cfg for pursuit purposes......

It's really an awesome looking aircraft! I am glad the team decided not to go with the contra-rotating prop version after all, as this single prop version has a much more pleasing profile.

dvj, tommieboy; incredible screenies, Gents!

Glad you like 'Tuskegee', tommieboy.

Hello Milton & Team,<o></o>
What a gorgeous aircraft! Beautiful cockpit, feels (to me) like a Thunderbolt on steroids, an very nice skins. The only thing I miss is a gunsight. Will you address this in a later version, or Is there a way I can port over a gunsight from another plane to the XP-72? A prototype does not need a gunsight, but it would go well with the operational skins.<o></o>
Incredible how far piston-engined aircraft could be developed…

[dvj]

Thank YOU Roger!

Man, those screenshots are HOT!

I downloaded this skin. It has none of the reflective polish I see in these shots. Am I missing a texture?

Pulling "Up" could be fatal :-)

[tommieboy]

.....Glad you like 'Tuskegee',......

It just looks so right on this aircraft, and hauling a** with the new sound set just seals the deal for me with this aircraft......

Also, I was never never never a fan of the razorback P-47s, but the XP-47J just released by the team changed my mind big time. I can't get enough of that one either.

Had a nice flight this morning - just outstanding. I'm getting some blurries on the chrome paints - but I'm still dialing in the new build, so likely just me.

Milton and team - best project yet. If your Tigercat and/or S-2s get this kind of treatment, that would be outstanding. Landing gear in particular - just spectacular, as is the VC gauge work ...

Many kind thanks,

Well, thank you so much guys for all the kudos. We tried to take this to a higher standard and raise our bar a little and will try to achieve these levels in current and future projects. We invested a lot of time addressing FSX concerns in beta thanks to all the FSX/P3D beta testers who came on board. About 80% of the beta issues were FSX/P3D related so lots invested to give you a better experience.

We will also be upgrading the Harpoon to this level, and the Lodestar, C-57/C-60, and Vega Ventura are already being prepared for same. The F7F-1/3/3N will obviously enjoy the same treatment.

Have fun!

This project sat on the back burner for a long time, but the result certainly justified a wait!

Cheers: Tom

And no one knows better than you on this Tom since you created the first Flight Model so long ago. :-)

EDIT: Here's a screenshot from May 2007 :-)

Very nice! Now can you build an Aztec, Milton?

My favorite phrase in Flight Sim "Here is Milton's..." quickly followed by "whatever."

It constantly amazes me how much someone can accomplish after retiring for this hobby

And Nigel's sound continue to annoy my neighbors. That is a good thing.

6 Speaker surround sound blasting away.....?

Gets my vote !!! Mike

Just dropped in to say thanks Milton and team once again for another great aircraft!

[fsafranek]

I was wondering how long it would be before I added a WWII type fighter to the hanger on my new rig. Definitely am now. Thanks guys!
