Project Airbus – Talk

I don't run my FS into fullscreen mode and the flickering is a one off event. The weird thing is that there's no folder for the RR variant of the CLS A330 when I go into the %appdata% section and those run just fine when I add any textures to it (.i.e. SAS) While I may not be able to test out any of...

well it does show the Delta 777-200LR in the directory, but the screen is black and it gives an error when I select it. As for the CLS, everything is still there. It seems to constantly restore that folder you told me to delete.

and the proper term for these ("...") are quotation marks btw

Now before I begin describing in explicit detail in the problems I've been facing, I have installed aircraft, panels, sounds, etc. into FS for years. Hell you all have seen me paint my Korean Air A380 paint. However in all my years of being involved with this hobby have I never been this genuinely c...

Nice job on the tail

I agree with many of the sentiments here regarding their stubbornness. Any one little criticism about their projects and they'd might as well disembowel you online. That's why I never liked their boards and why I left them. It felt like I couldn't really contribute even in a small way, and thus neve...

how much for one of those?

586km/h is insane!

much better

your shades of blue don't quite match. Otherwise it's fine.

It reminds me I have numerous paints to get up. I've been holding off on some of them for at least 2-3 years now.

looks good

looks nice, but they use RR engines for their A330s; those look like PW

I'm sure some of you have heard of Skymark ordering some of these. I felt somewhat obligated to paint this livery. There's not much to show regarding it, but I should add some effects and show everyone the completed product in about a week as well as upload it. The livery is not too fancy I know, bu...

I'm baaaaaaack! I'm sorry for bringing up an old post, but this simply helps make the boards a little neater for moderators. However, my beloved A380 of MSN 035 is currently in Finki awaiting outfitting and painting. As promised, I am updating my paint to help it look more accurate. For now here's a...

In case you didn't hear from yesterday, Skymark of Japan signed an LOI for up to 4 A380s and 2 options (note, they haven't ordered them quite yet). In light of that, I have painted one rather quickly. I'll get around to uploading it this weekend. Also it might not be a bad idea to alphabetize the li...

velvety smooth my friends

I might just paint up a bit of those pictures myself for the hell of it. Hey at least it keeps me busy while waiting!

If I may have it a guess, the evidence does point to an A340-300 ;) The shape of the engine cowlings does give me a clue. Anyway, whatever it is, it will certainly be a great bit of fantastically mastered PAirbus freeware done by enthusiasts for enthusiasts. :D Look at the engine textures on the si...

someone better paint D-AIRX if it is indeed an A321

Now I shall patiently wait for an A346. I can't stress enough how badly a replacement is needed for that which is FS9 compatible

that makes it perfectly clear. It's NOT an A330!

I'd probably do it the second way if I were you

a Boeing 787! I have no idea when it will be released, but all I know is it looks great AND I WANT IT!!!!

I plan on doing the following:

ANA
Malaysian (both variants)
Thai
FedEx

update my Korean Air that is on Avsim

and a little surprise for y'all for Christmas

I'm probably going to pull it out of left field and say it's an A300/A310. I wouldn't mind being proven wrong though.

A318 w/ PW engines?

It's a good attempt. I agree about the engines and the logo. As for the Swiss cross on the tail, it looks okay to me. However I would recommend checking out airliners.net for some reference photos. In some cases you can even slap the picture right on the tail when you have enough experience. Also do...

Would one of these said "things up our sleeves" happen to be within the top three?

True. With the Overland A321, a PA A321 will be like taking a hammer to it. An A345/A346 however would be like taking a concrete drill (you know, the ones construction workers use on roads) to the Simubuild one which is beyond horrible.

A321 = stretch the fuselage from the A319, recut the wings, texture, done! Though after the A32X family is updated, an A345/A346 is a must! The A330/A340 variants can probably be made pretty easily afterwards. The only main difference I can see besides the stretching/shrinking is the tail. Did anyon...

They'd might as well make it since it would be a matter of stretching the fuse, re-cutting the wing, and re-texturing. However I see a FAR more compelling case for an A340-500/600.

A vote is a vote the IFDG is getting old. Please don't turn this into a WW3! Just because it's older doesn't automatically make it worse; it's how it's made that determines the replacement. Take Meljet's 777 for example. I still know people who are flying that around and for a model that old, it lo...

I wouldn't consider it a competition per se. However your sentiments echo the case I've been vehemently making for some time and I will say it until I'm blue in the face. However our case shows a huge and I mean HUGE void in an A345/A346. As they say, a picture speaks a thousand words. This is why I...

A345/A346. The FS community has been lacking a good one for years (I don't count Thomas Ruth's one because it's FSX only. Sorry, Mr. Ruth!) Simubuild's looks like crap The CLS A345/A346 is getting long in the tooth The Thai A345 looks amazing The Virgin A346 looks like a hot rod I've dreamed of a Pr...

Now up!

http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=151144

well I uploaded it to avsim. Given that the real thing will not be out until 2015, I didn't feel like doing much with it unlike my Korean Air to be honest with you.

enjoy

cracking screenshot

that is a phrase I can get used to hearing and saying a lot

All homages to my fellow Detroiter Robin Williams aside, I decided to whip up another A380 paint after my Korean Air. This time, Vietnam Airlines. They did order about 4 of them I believe, but it will be years before we see them. I still have a few things to fix on this paint, but it should be on Av...

http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=151037 She is now up on Avsim and already seeming to get a good number of downloads at the moment. It's not even on the main page yet and already I have seen around 105+ downloads. Thank you Project Airbus for this Amazing 380. I look forward to enhancing t...

I sent her off to avsim. She should be up soon. In the meantime, I have some more photos to help wet your appetites (and sorry, no kimchi included) http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/121/annyeonghaseyokorea.jpg http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/9596/bigbluebirdofhappiness.jpg http://img94.imageshac...

agreed. I like all the pictures.

and the A380 is to visit AMS on the 15th iirc.

not bad

just shrink the star alliance logo

1. I love the ride (albeit I've been to Disneyworld in Orlando waaaaaaay too many times to care about that place).

2. a picture would be nice to start out with

umm as for the belly, I think the letters would need to go as well if it is to be a little more authentic

I'm just saying.

also I'd move the star alliance logo back by a little bit

Also I don't think the Thai logo is on the belly. Other than that it looks great.

It's been a little while since I added any updates on my interpretation of a Korean Air A380 (on that note, what is with all the postings of them going on? Besides my own I think I saw at least three or so). I plugged up some of the windows and added some effects to help bring out the livery a bit m...

^ Perhaps, but I'm going solely off of this picture I found. Also I'd like to slightly stress the fact that Airbus never produced the A380F so this photo is all I can really base my paint off of. http://www.vosen.de/images/5Stars_FedEx_A380.jpg Thanks for that psd file by the way. It really came in ...

looks great

just be sure to paint the engines

The BA looks nice. I might consider painting one up myself if I have time.

Well no real update except that I added the cargo doors. I probably wouldn't do much to it until I get back from California. Ten year old twins just seem to suck the life out of me.

and Tom I am well aware of the lighting mask.

I know you guys did not make the A380F variant (nor Airbus for that matter), but I am unsure whether or not I can upload this FedEx A380F I painted to avsim.

Thank you for your inquiry.

Nice paints

though it will be a very bitterly cold day in hell before EasyJet or Ryanair get some of those. Consider it a good thing!

What are the names of the interior textures that would need to be painted over in the paintkit? Are they to be determined?

Now bring on the virtual cockpit

the logo on the tail needs to be flipped

the outer winglets need to be blue

and I might shrink the size of the Korean air text so it doesn't really cut into the first door on the second deck

apart from that, I am short on things that need to be fixed
