Nick Black's AI website

Post by hobby »

I seem to recall that Nick made a new AI Apache some time ago but when I tried to find his website I was greeted by a Atar wars Imperial trooper!

Many of his ai models were lost in the recent death of my seven yeare old computer and I recal that he had an attractive and easily navigated website. I am interested in seeing the whole range of his Ai models for FS9.

Can someone please tell me the correct website address so that I can see and download some of his excellent models without having to download a complete package?

Nick is no longer active in the AI world. We were as surprised as you to see the storm troopers instead of his models. I don't know if that's still his site now or not, but he's not doing AI stuff any longer.

We need to remove that link from our homepage. That's our fault.

You can get all of his models through our various packages.

Many thanks for your reply. I am disappointed that Nick's own website is no longer available.

He graciously left us all of his files so while the site may be gone, the work is not.

are Nick Black's aircraft models free for use as static scenery in freeware projects?

(I sent Mike JG a PN, but I suppose he did not read it...)

No there not free for use in freeware scenery projects outside of MAIW, unless the author of the project has Nicks prior permission for use.

You can get Nicks email from his profile here, and I do know he has given permission to many inderviduals already. I would say emailing him is your best shot.

Unless you have Nick's source files, you are better off using the AI model instead of trying to convert it to a static model. Permission is still needed outside of MAIW to package it. :P
