Project Airbus – Talk

Movieman162

Of course every aviation project has it's ups and downs.. Forgive the joke but I must say you guys. Did excellent with the a320 family and you are doing even better with this and I cannot wait to get hands on with the brilliant result

Movieman162

Ive got a few friends flying in from Tenerife this sunday... looks like theyre holiday just got longer!

Movieman162

Woah, woah people please. I was in no way disrespecting PA or their hard work on this model. I am looking forward to this 380 as much as anyone is. I was merely saying that the NLS version is supposed to be just as good a model with more systems and items implemented. The NLS model that you all hav...

Movieman162

The project airbus certainly isnt just a waiting model for me, ive been looking forward for a realistic A380 model for several months now, not just a replacement. Im my eyes this model is in a league of its own for freeware and always will be.

Movieman162

I meant so the textures were not holding the release back.

Movieman162

Just release a white textured a380 then we will be satisfied

Movieman162

No it dosent need to be smaller just higher.

Movieman162

Actually thats right, the bottom of the cargo door needs to be level with the normal door the the right.

Movieman162

Mines not a pointless post. There were some final things being adjusted before release and i was asking what they were. I didnt just put "Im so excited"

Movieman162

It is because FS9 can't handle both... but FSX can.

Movieman162

Im sure someone would do a merge sooner or later after both models are released.

Movieman162

Plus in the real world some aircraft use a suporter.

Movieman162

pointless post. Other topics have been closed because of this so don't ruin this one.

Anyway how are things progressing? Heard there were some final adjustments being made?

Movieman162

Probably not... personally id prefer them to work on the release rather than videos wouldnt you?

Movieman162

It will be released soon dont worry... The test flight was only yesterday and we dont know the results of that. Even then it still has to be packaged as well as readme's created which could take some time, and renember these guys will have their own lives outside the simulator as well. They dont wor...

Movieman162

I wounder (hope) if the test flight was a success... meaning that this bad boy would be closer to release.

Movieman162

Yes i realised that now, i was too distracted by the picture

Movieman162

I agree, apart from that its a brilliant repaint! Is it the posky model?

Movieman162

Brilliant! Best repaint anyway, the one below looks too bright. Would you mind having a wack at the Royal Mail scheme used on the 737's for A320??

Thanks again.

Movieman162

Brilliant idea i think! Will it be uploaded soon?

Movieman162

Awwwww was worth a try....

Movieman162

If you want im free all week but friday and im willing to do a Heathrow - Dubai test flight.

Movieman162

I didn't see much textures underneath (watching on a ipod) so could it be something like the rat turbine????

Anyway looks great is this the vc version in beta or is la still following to it's original plan??

Thanks

Movieman162

Very good, looks like were going to have another brilliant freeware package coming soon!

Movieman162

Yeah i think the painkillers helped

Movieman162

Never mind...

Movieman162

Seriously... how long???

Movieman162

Whats the max time now until release??? I know you dont like giving deadlines but waiting is becoming really painfull.

Movieman162

How did you get that view???

Movieman162

The A380 or 717???

Movieman162

Im sure once PA releases their a380 it will be a good motive for somebody to try as it would be the first 100% realistic a380 we have...

Movieman162

Brilliant video! Really shows why i love this plane.

Movieman162

I wouldnt really want time to be wasted on something as small as that, it took me two tries to even see it. There is better effects which are not being made either which im sure would be higher up the list if there ever was to be one.

Movieman162

Thanks flightsimmer, you beat me to it

Movieman162

He never said it was... anyway great videos!

Movieman162

Either that or you are just messing with us, but i do hope its true

Movieman162

Or perhaps the 19th??? Its my birthday!

perhaps i could get a little preview version as a pressie? Will accept unfinished because it still looks great! And besides i could test its functionality in fsx sp2+acc

Movieman162

Very nice, i cant wait for this as it will probably be the first a380 to actually be good, realistic and have many reskins and much support.

Movieman162

How about for say.... fsx?

Movieman162

May i just ask why you wont release that VC? Trust me that looks better than the one aerosoft have in development. Its you choice but its an amazing vc.

Movieman162

Some pics of the LH A380 in full livery: http://www.spiegel.de/fotostrecke/fotostrecke-51510.html Might help for your paint ;) Painting the real one was finished today at Airbus plant Hamburg Finkenwerder. So she will probably leave the paint hangar this weekend... I like those painted wings! Wow i...

Movieman162

Does anyone know of any 3d modelling and airport creation tutorials? ie create a 3d model with texture and export to fs.

Movieman162

Sounds great!

Movieman162

Personally i think when you get fsx on a powerfull system (alike mine) it can be really good. I dont think fsx will ever outdate FS2004 because they are two versions of the same simulator, one less demanding. Unless a new simulator came out with fsx qualities and FS2004 i dont think either well ever...

Movieman162

Ah right, well best of luck. Sounds like its going to be great when finished!

Movieman162

They said that the exterior model was finished and that they are working on the VC now?

Movieman162

Actually i have had the same problem, downloaded the ac.7z installed all the effects but nothing, they are working as i get the new touchdown fx but nothing else.

Movieman162

So the no VC/wingeview version will be released shortley?

Movieman162

Absolutely outstanding! Are the ones in the 3rd and 4th post the CLS A300/310? The model looks familiar. Anyway well done!

Movieman162

Good to hear A380 is nearing the finish line (unless doing the VC will take some time? dont rush!). If you want any reskin ideas ive got tonnes!
