Re: Fort Campbell (KHOP) Scenery

Major Project Update as follows... 1) I am now back to work "full steam ahead" on this project..."Real Life" has finally settled down and given me the time. 2) After forcing myself to delve into every "nook and cranny" researching the different scenery design programs a...

Re: Background Images for Sbuilder and ADE9X

Please let me know if this tutorial helps and if you find any shortcuts to my system let me know. I have tried valiantly to keep it as simple as possible. The problem is that Sbuilder uses d/m/s coordinates only and ADE9X uses only the other two decimal forms of coordinates. Also ADE9X only calibrat...

Re: Which C5 shoud I get?

If you are referencing the C-5 Galaxy.... Save your money and get the freeware model by Mike Stone. It flies great, is free, and numerous paints are available. I bought the Alphasim version but did not care for the way that it handles or renders visually on my machine(s). However, the Alphasim panel...

Re: Why do I have a WINNT folder when I am running Windows XP??

It is my understanding that the WINNT folder in XP installations is a remnant from when MS dropped the continued development track from NT 4.0 to NT 5.0x and concentrated on XP using the pre-release NT 5.0x framework as a foundation for XP and beyond. At least that was the rational that was discusse...

Re: US Army Tactical callsigns?

During my time in the US Army during the 1980's and early 90's callsigns for ground and R/W units were designated by a divisional communications SOP which changed almost daily. Typical callsigns of that time were "Charlie 52", "Alpha 44", etc. With today's advanced commo security...

Update

Hello everyone... I just wanted to take a few moments to let everyone know that I am still working on this scenery package, although the last few months time has been at a premium due to "real life" demands. It was my intent, when I started this project, to get it started and work on it no...

Re: Southeast ANG package by MAIW

Hey all... While re-installing/re-organizing this package I noticed that there are 8 C-130H assigned to KSTJ, but no new AFCAD for parking. The MSFS Default only has 1 MIL_CARGO spot. I no longer have a copy of DB's original package, if one was in that and will work can someone please post it. Of co...

Re: Fort Campbell (KHOP) Scenery

Victory... I am finding that scenery design has a somewhat steep learning curve and tons of trial and error....I envy the work of John Stinstrom. He is the "Master" in this field, so I am striving to match his quality... So far I think I am holding my own, but should have chosen a "mu...

Repeat Files

Quick question... Many of the packages have object libraries included in each one...i.e, jgse.bgl, ggse.bgl, maiw objects.... In reviewing my scenery files, I am finding multiple copies of many of these stashed across the directory. Will it cause adverse effects if I were to try consolidating these ...
