Fridaychild, you need F1-view... a freeware program that alows you to move around the vc.

Get it here:

Very cool, Omag, might just have to acquire that....nice to see that the Russians don't have a monopoly on brutish giant planes... been in one of these I think, at Coventry air museum.... cavernous inside if I remember.

Thanks for the heads-up!

Hey OMAG, I'm facing problems while installing this awesome model, I'm supposed to insert all textures to the default textures directory of my sim, but then I'm asked to overwrite 2 texs: prop.bmp and oberhead.bmp - dunno what to do, Argosy's props are all back  :'(
Another thing, everytime I try to use the sim-icons, the lower half of my panel blinks and the spot view is shown...and I don't use nome of these VC walkers softwares...maybe my video card???

If some1 can help.....

But still, another Rick's super model!!!

WHAT? Delete it? Over my and a lot of other simmers dead bodies Rick! We adore your quality planes...

It's just that it seems strange to me that you would list bugs on a plane that's way ahead most other freeware quality!

I hope I didn't upset you... If I did, I'm sorry!

Cheers,

Omag

Am downloading as we're speaking....

Hmmm.... A rick Piper Argossy+ Silver Wings.........Might make a nice comp shot

[FridayChild]

Is this the real Rick Piper?
Assuming he is: there is some serious misunderstanding here... read again all our posts... almost everyone (me included) is more or less *enthusiast* about this plane... it is awesome... so awesome in facts that the bugs are near to irrelevant... as for the look of the real counterpart airplane, it is obviously not your fault....

[foo_fighter]

I'm not "more or less" interested - I LUUUUUUV THIS errr.errr. beauity?!?! LOL, I just have to have her, amazing design!

Rick, everytime you create a model, I WANT IT!!!!!!

Keep goin pal!!!  ;D

BTW, I too like those "strange-but-100%-all-functional" designs, like Argosy, like Thunderbolt II (A-10) - not intend to be pretty, and yet, amazing!

Hi Guys

Yes it was me in a very bad mood due to the ones that find it impossible to read clear instructions.

There are a few people with problems that have just posted their complaint rather than e mailing me to see if i can help.

That gets me going every time as they are usually the ones that don't follow instructions which funnyley enough is why they are seeing a problem

I am aware that not everyone can read english but most that can don't

Regards
Rick

Yeah, RTFM cases are sometimes annoying; but I don't see complaints here; only a user requesting what to do regarding some already existing texture files (overwrite y/n) and me noticing that the props didn't spin in replay mode; maybe you are referring to other topics or other forums?
Oh, btw, make a 737 as soon as you can, will you?

Hi Friday Child

The props?.

I can't test replay mode.

That means my Viscount props will do the same then.

or you might find that no models display the props in replay mode if animated feathering is modelled.

Not important.

Someone has a flashing VC panel but have yet to recieve an e mail from them.

Seen that by same person on other forums too.

Main problem now is the file description on the Simviation download is very wrong & seems to be part of a another of my readme files so i messed up the upload as it is not clear what will be displayed when you are uploading the file.

I will see if Pete can edit it as i'm now being buried in e mails asking why they can't find the checklist (there is no checklist)

Regards
Rick

Hey Rick

the one with flashing panel and the overwrite textures it's me!
I didn't email ya cos I thought it would be some kind of invasion sorry, next time I'll email - but usually these fellas  here can help alot.....
But, anyways, do you think is all right to overwrite the existent prop.bmp?

[Ivan]

Flashing panel has something to do with the gauges loading slow... sometime my tupolev has that behaviour too.

[Omag 2.0]

Why should you have to overwrite anything? If I remember correctly, it's just matter of moving the aircraft in the aircraft into the fs-aircraft folder and moving the gauges and effect ( not sure if there were any) into the right fs-maps... I don't remember this beeing anything out of the ordinary...
