Hey Spindrift ! You changed your signature ?

Postby Daube » Mon Sep 03, 2012 6:56 pm

Now I hope I'm not confusing with another user. Sorry Spindrift if this is the case ;) The real user will recognize himself... well, his signature at least :D

And before anyone asks: this is a work-in-progress. The plane is being converted from an XPlane model by a user on a French forum. Currently it has incomplete modelling, no virtual cockpit, no sounds, no gauges, no propeller, nothing but a big part of the exterior 3D model. I'm really waiting for the final version

The scenery is from OZx if I remember correctly, it's the Elba island.
The plane is not really available yet. I just did a bit of beta testing together with a few other members of that other forum. That's why I wrote it's still a work in progress.

HOLY COW!

Yes Daube, that was me with the Porco Rosso Sig, and yes I JUST changed it last night! What timing! PLEASE keep us in the loop on this baby, Hayao Miyazaki's fictional Savoia S-21! (He's a real aircraft nut, all of his Manga and films have flying machines in them...)

p.s. That scenery is amazing! Elba you say? As in Bonaparte's? is it freeware or payware?

P.P.S. - In case anyone is interested, I do have the entire original Manga the movie was based on... here's a little excerpt:

Haha !! Good to see my memory is still working a little bit :D
I'll keep you all informed about the lifecycle of this baby, no problems.

On a side note, I'm going to Japan in a week and will finally take the opportunity to visit the Ghibli museum  8-)

For the scenery, yes of course it's freeware. It's part of a big package containing some Italian coast area, I can't remember exactely which one but the description on the website (OzX) says it all.
