Is there any problems with Add-on textures? The Accu-sim install says that Add-on textures will be deleted.

That is just due to the new configs, which will overwrite the original WOPII ones.

Well Nath we discovered something new about that B-17 (actually corsair did).Look at the 6th thread here by user member corsair
http://rascal2.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=3770956

and here

My guess was that it was red lettering with a black outline.Forum user corsair thinks the outline was yellow though but I think it's much darker.
Anyway thanks so very much if you want to repaint her more accurately.
I was just lucky enough to be at my mom's house today.I was worried about her because she had car problems.She got it fixed though so she didn't need a ride.
I just saw that the accusim package is released.Great I'll have to wait until a few days though to get it though.All I can say is it looks awesome and I'll have to study a bit more up on it for a while.

Finally got my activation email.

Figured I'd stop in and say Hi. The B-17 package looks fantastic. Cody once again did a super video to advertise your product.

>>>>>>By the way Cody, what is your hardware configuration? I've been researching the building of a new computer and I love to know :)<<<<<<

I got the accusim add-on the other day. By mid month I should have what's needed (the B-17 itself) to use it.

It's amazing to see what you've managed to bring out with the addition of accusim.

Great job to all involved!!!

I'll be picking up the Piper Cub eventually also ;)

By the way, what are the odds of seeing an Aeronca "K" with accusim? :D

Thanks

Hey bud. I think you will find the B-17 like the rest of the Accusim linup, in that it is very FPS friendly. Regardless, I'm running a Core i7 920 overclocked to 3.8GHz, a Nvidia 285 OCX from BFGTech, 6GB of DDR3 1600MHz RAM (Corsair Dominator). The rest is just geewiz stuff.

Hope you like the plane!

I'm hoping my machine can withstand the detail enough to just load it. My current specs are Pentium 4, 2.4ghz with 2gig of memory and the X1950XT Pro VC. I have my doubts. But that's ok. I'll get a new rig built before too long. Then I can dress up FSX right. The Orbx stuff is #1 on my list.

I'm not the brightest piece of silverware in the drawer when it come to the right hardware. I always configure something wrong (or two)

Thanks for the HW specs Cody ;)

Great educational B-17 video. Good video to go back to from time to time if you haven't been flying the B-17 on a regular basis. The B-17 is one of my most enjoyable plane to fly.

Keep the shiny side up and the dirty side down!
