So I began tinkering yesterday... I have not yet tried anything out in the sim as of yet... But a few models I attempted the DJC A32xs which seem to look fine in MCX and previewing with AI OWL, the AIA 757's as only the RR models were converted no the PWs, and the EVAI DC-10s, as I saw it mentioned those seemed to convert fine... While I will be curious to see how the in-sim results are one odd thing I notice on a couple of these is that I see brown boxes flashing on the screen in MCX periodically. Also on the EVAI Dc-10s the gear locks appear to just stay in place after the gear retraction animation...

I can in no way be considered an expert here, but what I do know is that converting from one sim to another involves manually converting all the animations to the new sims standard.

If you do not know the settings then, and unless you have the source - which you won't, then in some cases you will be re-creating the triggers and parms from scratch.

Hi all,

I've recently done a whole bunch of government 707's covering Australia, Canada, Brazil, Colombia, South Africa, Indonesia, Zaire & Chile for the late 80's & 90s. I've stuck them on my Google drive so they can be downloaded.

Enjoy,
Dan

Nice one, Dan.
I don't know yet what gaps but the package is definitely welcome.

And for our next game, it's guess the MiG 29 operator :mrgreen: I can't imagine this will be particularly difficult to be honest.
