Nick C 110 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 It's a lovely package Dan, it's come a long way since the FS9 version (of course I'm biased :wink: ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KGiveans 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 The VC looks much nicer than the FS9 one. Will this model work in FS9 as well as FSX? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBR 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 It looks really great! The Beaver is one of my real world favorite planes and I’ve had a lot of good times with the Aerosoft Beaver for FS9, so I’m really looking forward to this one. Any chance of having the download divided up into several zip files for those of us still on dial up? Say something like the first zip containing the planes with one livery each, the second zip containing the extra liveries and a third file containing the scenery?

Kofi 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 The VC looks much nicer than the FS9 one. Will this model work in FS9 as well as FSX? It's 100% FSX as I understand things... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGiveans 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 It's 100% FSX as I understand things... Ahh.. well, one can only hope. Thanks Kofi. I guess that will give me a reason to open FSX other than to test out my own products in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azflyboy 1 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Nice Beaver! (sorry, can't resist) Does the updated version have a floodlight effect modeled for the cockpit lighting to overcome the fact that FSX still does a poor job of modeling in-cockpit shadows?

Zemke 1 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Hi to all, The new Beaver looks really good although I still can see the stupid pilot'sheadgear (a simple cap and earphones would definitely look better) A little bit out of topic (but not so much) to help us wait till it will become an official release...

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted January 15, 2007 Author Aerosoft Share Posted January 15, 2007 That's the Pier scenery included with the Beaver! But don't get you hopes up too much for that bit of scenery. It suffers from a lot of issues regarding FSX in that area, it is really only a left-over from the SF project we had to drop last year. But with the Alcatraz scenery and the generally good scenery of FSX there it makes a very nice starting point for flights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisB 11 Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 We're down to "hours to release" now by the looks of it. CC cards at the ready. I've been looking at some potential paints for the Beaver in general, and I have been practicing the migration of FS9 skins... (both ways if I do decide to do some Beaver skinning) It seems odd, that I haven't touched the Beaver yet, but I only just recently figured out the paintkit despite having it on my PC for almost two years now... and it's taken "spec" and "bumpmap" to get me interested in the Beaver.
