On the subject of the rapide, I plonked the FS9 texture for ACYM on to the FSX rapide and its fine even as a .bmp. I've since converted it to .dds, but as far as I can work out there is no need to use the FS9 model in FSX when the textures transfer across. There might be some irregularities, but I've not seen them.DaveB wrote:A fair few indeedI looked at painting all the Rapide fleet for the FSX model and ended up (yesterday) dragging the FS9 model into FSX instead
If it's any consolation Ben.. I only ever fly the VC10's I have paints for.. eg, the ones that came in the original release
Not a satisfactory situation I admit

Yep, the main exterior mapping on both is pretty much the same, but the FSX version does have some extra bits which may show incorrectly textured if a FS9 paint is used.
Unfortunately, existing repaints (both FS9 & FSX) won't work on the up-and-coming Rapide V4 as too much has changed.

You've not been paying attention Ben. As Sir David Frost used to say.. the cluse, are there
DG.. is V4 going to be less 'trimmy' (that's a technical term for those confused and not used to such terminology)
