Ive just started with the Creator name the font base02, kinda looked like a bomb after i did a drop shadow and edges, so i dig up my tagging textures and flame jobs and worked on it ,the creator is abit lame and can mod it with NZFF or something ..

Wow, Creator - those scenic shots are *awesome*. Hard to believe they're from a flight sim! Is this what the payware mesh gives you? I prefer No.1 (your choice) to No.2 - it just has more *drama*! However - your "also ran" (3rd from the bottom) is a stunning shot. It's not as *immediate* ... but it grows on you. Aw soddit ... I think it's the best one now winkyy.gif

I notice the pilot has his wheels down. Has there been a catastrophic (weather-bomb related) hydraulics failure? I just can't believe there's anything down there you could plonk that Dash on laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

Newmans operated the Dash7 for a bit , PLONK that DASH exactly what pilot did at Wigram in 85 ( the debut ) ...jeepers , think he was a little surprised he did,t rip the wings off!

Yes Ian this is a true dump it in there sort of island hopper or something ..well the sim model is and has still to this day been a payware look but a freeware download since 2002sim right through to FSX with some texture and gauge changes that ive done ,but yeah a simple port ,almost a dump it in the aircraft folder and it works ..

this thing could almost land anywhere in the sim and will take off like a Caribou,well kind of biggrin.gif

well yes and no it really defines the mountain etc but alot is also done with payware scenery high res Wanaka X found HERE!! {Robins site }
also i have FEX clouds that really make a huge differance to the sim ,,Payware is the way to go to get performance + a great looking sim it really does go hand in hand most of the time unless you come across a cr@p addon that kills all you have going

glad you guys like thumbup1.gif
