Has a MAIW package come out with the P-3 yet?

Portuguese AF pacakge.

There maybe one in the pipeline, but I am not at liberty to divulge that information.

Maybe more than one , so I hear from the MAIW mole..

Thanks for the quick response.
I'll have to download that package along with all the others from the last 6 months when I get back in the states in a couple of weeks. shipboard internet is really slow. It takes anywhere in the neighborhood of 10-15 min just to get the MAIW homepage to load up. Hopefully the one in the works is a US Navy P-3 depicting NAS JAX or maybe NAS Brunswick before it closes in 2011.

Hi Maddog

I recently repainted Jake's P-3 for a Northeastern military AI and bases that used Mike Stone's P-3, all 8 of them, for Brunswick NAS. I do not remember who uploaded the pack, but it included F/Ps for some Maine military bases including Brunswick. If anybody is interested on these repaints, I'll be glad to share them.
Including some screenies.

A couple more.

Hey Lewis, those look really nice. I think thats the model based on the CP-143 Aurora so some of the antennae are different from the P-3C. I have remapped (with Graham King's help) some of the parts that were not lining up right so the next release will be an improved model.

I will say that there are some nice things in the works

Also, if you'll add this line to your [fltsim.x] entries, you'll have props that appear to turn at high speed. Somehow it didn't get in the release .

prop_anim_ratio=-0.2

Thanks Jake. Yes, these are the P-3's from the Portugese pack. I had to negociate, Mike Stone's or your P-3's, so as for AI needs, yours was the apropriate aircraft. In the FS world, we simmers may have to compromise with what is best available until someone does create the real model. I must say that they really look good at the ramp.
Thanks for your work.

Lewis

Ps. The prop anim ratio has been installed. Thanks again.

Boy ain't that the truth ! But you know, its getting better all the time. That's why I took up modeling. This group of guys here has made a big dent in the "not acceptable for AI" list . And BTW, you're more than welcome and I would be remiss to not say it was truly (and still is ) , a group effort.

Stay tuned...

Lewis,
Can we get the repaints posted? I need to get NAS Jax up and M. Stone's P-3's as you know are not the best for framerates.

Sure. I will prepare the pack today and upload it to Avsim.
Cheers, Lewis

Before I U/L the textures I must contact Jake and Grahan to have their approval to upload. Sorry, I had completly forgot about that. As soon as I get an Ok, I will upload them.

lewis,

Just FYI...Graham King has already provided me with repaints for all the NAS Brunswick P-3C's for use with the JAI P-3C and these will be included in an upgrade package for my previous NEUMAI NAS Brunswick. This upgrade package will include an upgraded base AFCAD, oustanding custom scenery by John Stinstrom, additional scenery objects placed by yours truly and expanded FP's to cover all the additional P-3C's.

As soon as I get caught up on all my AI FDE development work for new MAIW AI models and I have some free time, I will be completing the FP's so we can get this upgrade package completed and released.

Mike

Great news. I will then hold on the ones I retextured, since they really are not acurate Orions (they are Auroras). I'll be looking forward to the new package.

Lewis

Cool, I'll just hold out and wait as well.

Hi Mike
I know that you said that Graham has textured the new AI P-3's in Brunswick NAS colors, but I just could'nt wait and did my own version (at least one so far) of your "NEUMAI NAS Brunswick" package. Check it out.
This time I am using the correct aircraft, which was provided by Jake.
