BAC 1-11's cenverted to FSX

[Vancouver]

By a David Grindele at FS.com, I amsurprised there has been no comments. Is it done with the blessings of DM?

The One-Eleven already works in FS.X with well documented guidlines.

The model won't have been converted in any way

Just downloaded and looked at the files. He's packed up for example a BAC 1-11-200 with one livery, into an FS9 installer, which points to an FS9 location and uses FS9 folder structure so not good for FSX as it says. He has put sound and panels into the installers aircraft folder, despite still having the kb checklists in the aircraft.cfg referencing the "DMFS Shared Files" folder, which is not part of the install. He has put in am alternative aircraft.cfg for a2a 3d lights. But he hasn't converted any of the textures to DDS, they are still BMP and he hasn't even changed the co-ordinates of the smoke so that they are correct for FSX.

So basically he's done feck all except provide a new livery and a new aircraft.cfg for a2a 3d Lights, which he could have uploaded like any other livery and mod.

BUT MOST BIZARRELY!!!!! Using a Boeing 717 panel with Concorde, Kingair and 747 gauges! (The original is still there as panel.def but the livery in the cfg doesn't reference it.)

I don't understand how folk can do this and presume they're being helpful. A good example of why developers don't like their stuff uploaded without prior consent as it tends to fill their inbox full of crap they know nothing about but.. the new files leave enough in there for their mistakes to point to the developer NOT the uploader
Tks for checking it out Darren
