Happy that she is fps friendly for you guys. That was a key change for this aircraft, a 35% reduction in polys without affecting quality, and reduction in vcockpit sections to give as much gauge smoothness as I could using standard technology.

Milton, I can answer that question. Yes it is great. We flew her this weekend, and I have a small power supply on my system that kind of limits the effectiveness of my video card. I usually have a frame rate problem when we fly a plane that is kind of heavy on the polys and with a heavy vcockpit. When we flew this new plane, I didn't have any problem. In fact the plane is a pleasure to fly. Thank you. I did notice a slight difficulty though, I have your earlier model of the plane and it has several addon textures/skins, and they weren't compatable. I kept the old one in the system so I can still have those textures available.

Many have already added the old textures. They should be compatible; that was the intent.

Create a new folder copying the new released textures into it. Go to the old original release and bring in only the fuse_t and the nacellesboth_t textures.

That should do it. Smile

If you experience issues with your NAV light, download this fix. Simple instructions included.

If you notice your rudder trim turning on the wrong axis, or the prop pitching is not right by engine, download this fix to the model file:

I apologize for the issues.

This adds a daytime VC Panel Brightness Light

This puts a panel switch on the VC to turn the light on during the day, and off at dawn/dusk/night.

Detailed instructions included.

Here is a model replacement update that corrects some VC parts mapping. These parts would disappear when the video card was a bit stressed. www.flightsimonline.co...520vcn.zip _________________ Milton Shupe Dash 7, Aero Commanders, Howard 500, Beechcraft D18S, Spartan Executive, XA-38 Grizzly, DH-80A Puss Moth, Grumman F7F, A-26B/C, AT-11, Grumman Trackers, Avia 51,56,57,156, Lockheed Harpoon
