UPDATE Request Ted's Hawker Biplanes

[Cathy Howat]

Is it possible for Ted, or somebody to update those so they will work woth FSX Acceleration and SP2, they wrked fine with FSX original, but now the textures are all buggered up!
Cathy :flying:

[Trev Clark]

You have to blame Aces (or MS?) for that cathy, I am not sure if Ted even has FSX himself.

[Cathy Howat]

Actually, yes, they worked fine prior to Sp1, and not at all afterward, neither, by the by do
a) the MAAM sim DC-3, B) the CLS dc-10, though there are fixes for these, and all of Pernier Aircraft designs FSX stuff, though they too, have done fixes, not just me blaming aces, but Aces not doing homework Aces have also stated (latest issue of PC PIlot,) that future versions of Flightsim will not be backwards compatible

Not out of place in this thread I hope

Anyone want to take a bash at this - I found it while trawling



Although black and white - its fairly obvious its painted in eaarly world war 2 trainer yellow with the forward cowls and fueslage in natural aluminum

also If anyone has the bent - I have some colour drawings and B/W photos of Royal Thai Air Force Avro 504N if anyone woudl care to take a bash

Bizarre, I thought I'd posted a response to this eight hours ago.

I'm fairly sure Ted only has FS2004.

I'll have a crack at the Yellow Trainer through the week, Ted's planes are refreshingly straightforward to do. I've already done the pale blue prototype from the Earls Court Exhibition in '29, but need to ask Ted about posting it anywhere, well the RAF colours in the scheme are still basically his silver Trainer.

I haven't looked at Jens' 504N, but it may not be too difficult to knock out the Royal Thia scheme - this with the blissful ignorance of not knowing what they look like. :roll:

Cheers Allan

If you do and Ted and Jens give their blessings we will have em up at thePond in two shakes - I was just pleasently
surprised to find the photos and drawings - they make will make pleasent additions to the Tomtit and 504N

While One Who Is Faster Than A Snail With Gout works on the Thai beastie thanks to Jens, I have found a picture of the 504N in Brazilian Navy service. The shot is of aircraft with floats, but I'm fairly sure they also flew with wheels. I'm puzzled by the apparent two colour roundels. The modern Brazilian Navy roundels are blue/yellow/green but these seem to be lacking the blue central spot. Any experts in matters Brazilian (other than Filonian ) out there? And No, the paint scheme does not allow that level of detailing.
