I got the Wilco ERJ v2 pack a few days back, but the POSKY exterior is still much, much better. So if I wanted to combine the Wilco VC, along with all the avionics and stuff, with the POSKY exterior model, how would I go about doing that?



After re-reading your original post, I'm willing to bet that Wilco would have locked their VC .mdl file to prevent such a thing.

Even though some here make valid points I find it disappointing that this has apparently turned into a bash of a guy that actually has contributed a h@ll of a lot of free stuff to the hobby.


My comment may have seemed a bit harsh, but the reality is that Hiroshi is an excellent 3d modeler with a very well-deserved reputation for high quality FS9 work.

As a result, he is perceived by some Padawans as an "Authority." But, just like Yoda, he too has his blindsides and prejudices. Hiroshi's apparent monomania with FS9 modeling has led him to not invest the time to actually understand the very real differences and advantages of the FSX modeling paradigm.

Whenever any "Authority" speaks or writes outside his/her area of competency, one must be very careful to not simply accept such commentary as "gospel..."

I try very hard to not write about things about which I have no personal competence, such as flight dynamics...

...yet I still occasionally manage to make a fool of myself anyway.  :D

Bill, I most certainly was not trying to single anyone out. It just seemed to be the way the thread was going. I agree with you on your assessment of Hiroshi, and I also agree with your feelings about following what someone says when they are outside of their area of expertise.

and let's all remember that the only two people that are unquestionable allowed to speak authoritatively outside the bounds of their areas of expertise are Inspector Poly and myself...

(of course, if and when anyone figures out what our respective areas of expertise is/are, kindly drop us note?)

indeed, the which sim is better argurment is kinda silly, I use what I like and I like POSY planes and use them in FS9...I just have FSX installed at this time (need to find my disks for FS9 lol) but they are both good and have there strong points and weak points...just like any thing else will...


The only person that has done that in this thread is Mr. Igami ;)


lol, true, but we still should keep open minds, as the few posts before also state, I do agree with the fact that he may not have taken the proper time frame to explore the differences in FSX verses FS9...but one should NOT take his word as the authority...though most who are "padwans" do see to do that it seems, but they should be willing to keep an open ear and thoughts on the issues...thats all I ask of them...;)
