Looks like you're missing glass and props... you may be able to fix that with MDLMAT (a semi-new utility by Martin Wright), if you have some time for experimentation.

Thanks, but I'll never buy anything from them again.

I've adapted my bomb drop effects to the Lanc quite awhile ago, but I'm still in need of information on the sequencing of actual bomb drops. I can find plenty of information on various bomb loads, but in what order did the bombs actually release? In the case of the other bombers, a steady stream fro...

Fantastic repaint!

Another possiblity, now that Shockwave has caught on to the drop tanks, phenomenon is to check your tanks. Using FS9's built in drop tank ability, you can drop a tank from a single tank plane, load a dual tank plane and FS will not refill the "first" tank, but will refill the "new&quo...

Unfortunately, the model has been told to treat the alpha as reflection so all I got was chrome-plated rocket tubes! Wouldn't that make the gunners laugh? I got them to black after silver. Less funny to them. (they thought the silver plated tubes were hilarious! (two B-24's were shot down because t...

Everytime I go to escort a WoP bomber, the gunners laugh at me!

I bought my first hard drive so I wouldn't have to put floppies in all the time to run a program or play a game. I still don't want to have to put a CD in to run one program. (I pay for a program, I then think I should be able to use it at least as easily as pirates do when they didn't pay anything)...

My money would be on it being a mistake due to Milton Caniff not being as famous as previously thought. *grin*

That is GREAT news Bader! BTW, welcome to the Shockwave forums! *grin* (at least my first notice of you over here)
