Hi, There are a number of models that were converted to P3D but not converted to FSX native format. Mostly jets as far as I recall. Fortunately the FS9 models work in FSX (unlike P3D) so if you install the FS9 models first and then overwrite them with as many of the FSX native models as you can find...

The recent versions of ADE allows doing that. When you import an airport it comes up with a message that it has found "one or more black box library objects...If you want to compile them click Yes, otherwise click No" Also under compile options /More Options there is the option to click &q...

Having finally got my system up to the point where it can run MSFS I can fully understand the frustration developers are feeling. I love MSFS for flying low and slow (especially over places I know well - I recently flew over Guildford and could easily identify my old house and the places we walked t...

any good news after the latest MSFS update ?

Give them a bit of time - The update was only released on Tuesday.

Beautiful work (as always) John.

For those of you that have issues with have issues with TTB loading, especially FSX:SE uses then this is what to check for. In your FSX roaming folder, C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX there should be a dll.xml file. In that there should a section for Traffic Toolbox. In mine it looks l...

Hi John,

I just tested on FSX:SE as well and got the same results as morbidfred.

I had TTB enabled in my dll.xml but for some reason it doesn't seem to load - perhaps an issue with the SDK versions???

BTW the model looks really nice.

Hi,
In the merge objects tool you can choose the LOD that you are merging into (it defaults to LOD 100). Make sure that LOD value matches the LOD that you are looking at in MCX

Hi,
I've never merged collada files but I have merged FSDS source parts onto models so it should work.

If not then use MCX to create a mdl file from the collada source.

One hint with merging is to make sure you get the LOD correct in the merge tool.

good luck.

Which version of MCX are you using?

Jumps up and down and claps paws with delight.

Thanks Mark

HI, I was flying over my virtual Boscombe Downs the other day and noticed that it seemed really empty so I thought about populating it with the Empire Test Pilot School aircraft. I know the Grob G120 for the ETPS is part of Johns great package and I was wondering if one of our talented people had ta...

Hello, I would like to use the Gonzo in FS9, too. Can you show me where I can get the model, please? They would suit well in the freeware Winnipeg Scenery of Gregory Putz. @Jon May I ask if you painted all four Gonzos of RCAF? Thanks for your help! Sorry Asdro - The AIG Dash-8 series is for FSX / P...

Many thanks Jon for doing these repaints. Thanks also to Darren for his technical advice and assistance. I am attaching a totally bogus flight plan that will get them moving around a bit. I will be trying to do a more realistic flightplan in the near future but at the moment the Real World is interf...

If Darren can't find his old files I can take them on (already have the paintkit)

Hi Jon,
It would be great if you could (I was hoping you would volunteer ). The CT-142 is quite distinct from a standard -100 which is why Jay created a separate model.

Gavin

Hi, I'm not sure if people are aware but there is a version of the CT-142 "Gonzo" modeled in the newly released AIG Dash-8 100 package. I prevailed upon Jay to make the model when he was doing the Dash-8 series and I am (slowly and badly) repainting the model. However my paint skills reall...

I just downloaded it with out any issues.

Gavin

Are you using the P3D or FSX converted models?

My personal favourite is FSXWX

It is free and it works well for me.
