  1. Someone has completely redone that fantastic work of Rorys including the minesweeper version, or lets say the larger 53, which now in 2022 a newer version is coming out and HMX 1 has discontinued its CH53 Wing. Still; the very best chopper in the field. Do a FSX search Rory Kelly CH53, alot of MAIW will come up but keep looking youll see a post directing you to the site, fine work.
  2. I know Im a few years late, heres your link to all items that were located on Hovercontrol. I know what you mean when it comes to creators, hell im still waiting for that sea version of Rorys that CH 53, not the sea stallion which i was the first to fly at Pendleton, its larger, heavier. heres your link. Rory did it first. https://sourceforge.net/projects/hcff/
  3. I had read that Damian Radice had passed away, RIP to one of the finest creators that FSX ever knew.
  4. The plane never received the attention that it should of like the P-61 compared to the P-38, or the P-47to the P-51. This is the best recreation Ive seen of the aircraft yet.
  5. That Particular aircraft with the fuselage markings are also located on the Millville N.J. City Hall and Administration Office. The Late Francis "GABBY" Gabreski used to fly in their to the First Defense Airbase Millville Air Defense Army Air Field. About 68 military air craches their and holds that record for WW2, and has the abandoned bombing and strafing range adjacent south renamed Bevans Wildlife Management Area. A hell of alot of debris and remanents of bombs , Torpedos crash parts and tons of machine gun rounds in the strafing areas. Hasnt been used for aircraft since 46 , tanks 1969 or 70. Newer live ranges east out in ocean or North to Warren Grove 60 miles in middle of pine barrens. P47 is our Hometown Mascot and Sports Teams. Those Thunderbolts and P40s ruled out here.
  6. The SDK is in your FSX disc 1, run the disc , look through it, its a large file as far as its going to go into your FSX. If you cant go into that or anything in way of files right click and make yourself admin. i do that on every install of anything so that i can make any cfg change i want. With some aircraft like Captsim and a few others the system will crash if you dont set the install as admin. Good Luck.
  7. Go into FSX cfg file as admin, type DisablePreload, that would be at the very bottom of the cfg as the cfg file is written in reverse. Have issues with memory or ram ? alleviate the issue with MEMFIX=1 , Now that goes at the top above the first line. Any other issues leave them here. One tip, one thing that overworks fsx is shortcuts on your screen and just before you start fsx go to search type %TEMP% and the temp files will come up, delete all, what cant be deleted will stay, all of that will speed up the fsx program and in fact they are preload files the system that will be redone on the next boot. Make sure you type in the cfg just as ive typed it.
  8. Eyestrain, which will worsen, blue light from the computer screen and or Blue lense sunglasses. Pickup a pair of computer glasses and it should ease off, and depending on age. If not, Id contact a professional, life without sight or bad vision isnt a pleasant thing.
  9. Id have to say that the personal attacks on writers has increased over the last few years, and i believe the reason is the years of education and grammar as taught from the 1800s in the U>S> until the early 1980s. Commas, dashes etc arent followed anymore nor are the rules of capitalization. This began in the advertising agencies when states banned roadsigns to make the view more palatable. I could of commented on the above mistype as SNIPERS not snippers., But I didnt:] The slangs and technical era has made it even more difficult as the vernacular has also changed and thats why on your smartphone they keep a data bank on every word you type so they can derive the meaning, or assume they do. A good example is what George W.Bush did as president, passed a cyber law about anything on a computer and or device that had anything cryptic not realizing of course that most on a device is in one form or another cryptic. So, theres another dimension of "PROGRESS", to note even in progress there are losses, and the shortcuts on language may seem cool at times but the meanings are lost. Remember one thing, we are all in this venture of life, were all stuck on the same planet, and i dont think its too much to understand that being overly critical can take away from the sim community, as we created what we see out here and not an already perfected program and or application, WE THE PEOPLE created what you see before you, we were given a basepack with a bunch of cartoon aircraft and a Saturday Cartoon Matinee of scenery , and you can be proud to know that for the era we did ok, considering LOckheed Martin thought so much so they bought the platform, so be proud, fly together, relax, understand Im an Old Marine, Ive been up and Ive been down, and when i head into town i dead stick to land, dont want to wake the neighbors.when in the eighth grade i used a slang in English, i was reamed by my teacher, that was in the late 60s, my reply was " You understood what i said and was referring to didnt you? He just looked and didnt reply. Point made.
  10. I remember that Aero Commander down in Gettysburg back when I was a kid, President Dwight Eisenhower had a Farm down there and thats the plane he used to fly in on. These planes had all kinds of uses from the time it first hit the market, and it just happened to be one of the most durable contraband running aircraft of the ages, and that was due to its strucure and ability to handle rough landings and terrain. Beautiful aircraft.
  11. FSPILOTSHOP isn't in business, there were issues and they lost the site, and it was open to purchase from Go Daddy. I spoke with multiple vendors that said they were also having issues recieving payments from the online store for their products. If you want to rectify your issue, a. Get all of your reciepts from FSPILOTSHOP, make copies, contact the creator organization send them a email with copies of all purchase from the shop that pertains as well as the keys that pertain to said purchase. Each will assist you. I've saved every confirmation and key purchase going back to 2006 in archives, beings that's the only way to prove a purchase. I hope that helps, and I assure you, all of the vendors know the issue. You will also find that alot of vendors will not be using other businesses to sell their products, but just to promote. Happy Holidays. SEMPER FIDELIS
  12. The overall issue from the information I've gained is, A. The developers are sending payments late and some aren't sending any . B. I can tell you that if they don't make their payment for their web domain they are going to lose it, it's online with the coding and that statement "of you are interested in domain contact the domain owner which isn't at this point isn't only FS PILOTSHOP meaning simply that due to lack of funds the site has been taken offline , and unless the bill is paid the site will be lost. I've dealt with the PILOTSHOP since 2007. We've all had our points of contention, and misunderstandings. When I ran into issues that weren't resolved I spoke with a Manager in one state, and the owner in another and all issues were resolved. Other than pet peeves I still consider them one of the best sites, and carry a great product line. I don't agree with a few of their ideals, like charging for CDs and downloads for backup a year and after but hey, this is the new millennium and rules change all of the time. Monies tight everywhere.
  13. Your not facing anything that the original designers faced. You will notice the many changes over the manufacture process, many of them subtle , but since they werent in a position to take their time as the war was already on the changes came thru unfortunately enough pilot injury or demise. The most important in the long run was the engines, When they changed that, the performance and maneouverability changed and hence , one of the worlds greatest. Take at a look at history, WW@ aircraft, everyone looks at the Mustang, yes sleek , sexy , aerodynamic and flew superiod, but when it came to dives , yes it was fast and accurate, BUT it did not beat out the slowest and heaviest P-47 Thunderbolt. The thunderbolt had a slow but steady climb rate, more piolts came home shotup instead of in a box, but after they installed more armour in the cockpit they didnt have that issue. In training more pilots of the P-47 died when releasing a 500 lb. bomb fron the belly, the plane would nose up and fly inverted into the ground. We lost 68 pilots in the 47 at the First Defense Airport in the U.S. Located in Millville N.J. (KMIV) a portion of this airport along with its museum is still used by the govt, and the original bombing strafing area open to the public still carries tons of live 50 cal rounds, crash debris, and ww2 aircraft parts strewn from crashes. (its called the Bevans Wildlife Management Area) when you hunt the 33000 acre area the older group as myself know where the action is , as to some that shoot pheasant on the ground they learn the haed way, the last gut set of a ww2 incenderary. So if you need the info on aircraft and need constructive feedback yoy know where to go. On that aircraft id install a Merlin.
  14. Aint nothin like the real thing. Fine aircraft.
  15. Their add ons are spectaculae, as with maiw. Have a problem with the fs9 files into fsx? Get the file converter. It will run a check and change all of youre files that arent fsx and make the proper adaptations. Theres alot of fantastic utilities. Im going to show you my computer base , and understand this Toshiba is 7 years ols with harmon kardon sound, price was 1045.00, i upgrade files and keep it top, but if youre thinking the add ons are not great graphics there is an easy way to choreograph your system to dance with you. Texture max load editor, and tweak fps, those two combined and the proper installment of files are key. Watch out fot fs9 files on download that want to create a listing, that will send youre work all over the place.TOSHIBA M645 i5cpu processor m460 2.53gGHz 2.53GHz Memory 4.00 GB system 64 Bit. i have over 425000 files, 0ver 4000 aircraft and helis and 320 ships all as add ons that doesnt include the garbage in the original ACE lineup, I have over 1430 sceneries including Megascenery. I also have every major air traffic from x on up and ive went and shut them down because with my payware add ons and woa and ukmil along with simouthouse combat add ons i dont need a bizzillion things going on. Oh and i do have vrs with all of their aircraft, planes are nice but as far as weaponry im going to wait and see if they make things a little less complicated. Stay on top of youre game, and take the time to thank all of the simmers out threr for taking alot of time to make FSCA the very best, after all if Bill Gates didnt open the program to all of us to do what we liked in creativity this would of been shelved a long time ago. As a matter of a fact , if it wasnt for the amount of simmers using and adding to the program Lockheed Martin would of never been interested. After all we sparked a hell of alot of imagination. This is a superior site, and with dignity. Im going to see if i can upload some pics so you can see what ive accomplished in thousands of hours of mind boggling treacheryits what i term as a computer and a program that has alot of twists and turns and lets not forget the hair pulling. Marine Corps Semper Fidelis.
