RAF Noseart - 1940's to 1991 Gulf War


Recommended Posts

Hi all!

Following on from JanKees superb artwork collection, here's mine of British aircraft :

Lancasters - first one is called 'No Emeny Plane Shall Fly Over The Reich' - fat chance

If anyone knows about my INS issues (see the Aircraft area), please let me know!

Thanks for viewing!

Excellent shots, Kieran! The 'Zombie' is probably EQ Z Zombie of 408 Sqdn RCAF - a nice Mk II. Are you flying the Lanc in FS9 or FSX? If the latter, you may be interested in a couple of missions?

The B&W's are great, too - thanks for sharing, mate! :thanks:

Cheers - Dai. :cool:

Dai - The Lanc is in FS9, but if you can tell me how to put it into X, I'll be happy!

Kieran - here is a list of files that I transferred from FS9 to FSX to get the Lanc ported.

Move the following from FS9Gauges to FSXGauges:

LancGaugesA

LancGaugesB

JF_Mosgauges

Move the following from FS9Aircraft to FSXSimobjectsAirplanes:

JF Sounds

JF SoundsHerc

JF_Lancaster_MkIIA

JF_Lancaster_MkIIB

JF_Lancaster_MkIIC

JF_Lancaster_MkIID

JF_LancasterA

JF_LancasterB

JF_LancasterC

JF_LancasterD

JF_LancasterBBMFA

JF_LancasterBBMFB

JF_LancasterBBMFC

JF_LancasterBBMFD

JF_Mosquito

No Effects transfer but the Mosquito pdf might be useful. I also looked in the FS9Sound file, but couldn't find anything - I think all the Lanc sounds are in the Aircraft folder under JF Sounds and JF SoundsHerc.

I can't guarantee that this will work for you - sorry! But I get a very reasonable result in FSX - apart from some details like the prop blur, which doesn't show in front of clouds and auto-gen objects. I think this is a known issue with FS9 to FSX porting.

Lastly, please PLEASE, make back-ups before you start. I apologise now if what I have recommended doesn't work O.K. - so make sure you have all the correct copies to revert to!!

Alternatively, you could get the Lanc, for FSX, from the cover disk of the latest PC Pilot.... :whis:

When you've got the Lanc in FSX, let me know and I'll arrange for the Lanc Missions to be down-loaded. That goes for everyone, I guess!

Cheers - Dai. :cool:
