FS9/FSX Grumman S2F Tracker & E-1 Tracer

Post by mgchristy »

The first two packs of the Grumman Tracker/Tracer/Trader series have been released by Milton Shupe & team, and are available at Sim-Outhouse.com. Several more packs are forthcoming. These are superb creations...as expected from Mr. Shupe.

No need to wait Paul -the FS9 versions are fine in FSX so long as you replace the propeller texture with one from simouthouse.

Ah, thanks for that Colin. I've downloaded the aircraft from LockOnFiles.com and will have a play this weekend ( kitchen decorating permitting. Gawd, I HATE DIY ). As for the prop textures, unfortunately this means I now have to see if my SOH membership is still valid. I asked Roger to delete me; dont know if he ever did. :lol:

Anyway, thanks very much for the info. :cheers:

Hi Colin :hello:

My...that's a strange one...never had that myself, but I guess there is time :worried:

Thanks for the reply, I was curious as that' is something I would not have expected with one of Milton's products, but of course anything is only as the authors and checkers system shows it to be, so no beta testing can pick up everything.

Hi again Garry :hello:

Milton has said that they shouldn't really be used in FSX as they are not fully compatible, but when has that ever stopped us :lol:

The flashing prop thing is a common occurrence with FS9 port overs
