Re: Looking for late style BEA Rapide for FS2004
Thanks guys,all seems ok now.The only thing that I noticed in the relevant aircraft.cfg file was the prop_anim_ratio value of 1.7 was different to that in DaveG's file which IIRC was 1.0.Don't know if that would've cause a problem.

Re: Looking for late style BEA Rapide for FS2004
I have no friends so I wouldn't know.......so a friend of mine tells me

It could be something simple like that mate but from my experience, FS9 is a little more robust.. the model/paint is more likely not to show than cause a CTD. That said, if there's something amiss with the paint, that can send FS9 into dangerous places. It doesn't have to be much either

Eric.. 1.7 is fine for the FS9 v2 model (probably the v1 model too). It shouldn't cause a CTD but when dealing with computers, I'd not put money on it

Just loaded the FS9 model with my CTD-prone BEA paint into FSX & it works fine

Re: Looking for late style BEA Rapide for FS2004
Just tried the DaveB file in my Classic install and it behaved exactly as it should - no probs, looks great.
I see it has a fusalage_t.psd and a wings_t.psd as well as bmp files of the same name. Can I delete the psd ones?
I also noticed the prop_anim thing - 'City of Bristol' had it too, as 1. where the others had 1.7 so I made them all 1.7 put it down to bad copying on my part.
Thankyou all for your help, and here's a little something for Mr Garwood:

You can delete the .psd's...they're the photoshop files and not used by FS

Nice shots Mike. They've made me realise just how much I miss flying the old girl
There are a selection of oddball liveries I made down in the VA forum (Aircraft and routes) for the FS9 v2 model. If any of the links don't work, let me know

Re: Looking for late style BEA Rapide for FS2004
Thanks, Dave - I downloaded ACPR, AEML, AIYR, and AGSH, without probs.
Noticed the Scillonian paint was very similar to this Beech D18 livery, which if memory serves was a R-R or DH runabout.
Any info on that?
Images are 1024 wide, so just the links.

And I couldn't resist putting this one in - I am sure I got the paint from the Pond, and the airfield is by Laurie Roche.
