| DX10 Shader Fixers V3.2.3 |
|
File Description:
DX10 Shader Fixes V3.2.3. These are a set of shader fixes for DX10 Preview mode in FSX. The patch should not effect DX9 in any way. It addresses the following bugs in the DX10 preview:
1) Flashing runways/taxiways
2) Yellow/white runway markings transparency
3) Opaque chain fences
4) Progressive Taxi markings missing
5) Missing night scenery/semi-transparent dusk scenery (often misdescribed as missing night textures)
6) Some addon cars with black headlights
7) Softer VC shadow
8) Eliminates false sun on VC roof and side wall
9) ORBX FTX Global lights with black background rectangles fixed
Also included are an optional replacement water shade, aircraft lights package and an optional replacement background texture. This can replace the light blue DX10 uses and is close to what DX9 uses in the same circumstances.
With Steve Parson's permission I have updated the shader_release_v3.2.2 patch to shader_release_v3.2.3 to now include a fix for DX10 ORBX FTX Global Lights.

These are repaints of the superb Just Flight PA-28R Arrow III. They were created using the Paint Kit included with the commercial release of the product for P3D and converted to FSW version. They are only repaints and will not effect any aspect of the simulator, aircraft performance, your PC or any other electrical item you may own in your home.
*** you need to have the FSW version of the Just Flight PA-28R Arrow III installed prior to adding in these skins. These are ONLY repaints.

| Delta "Pink" Boeing 787-8 Texture Fix |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
***If you downloaded Version 1 (qwdlpink7878.zip) please delete it and download this version. This corrects the mipmap issues which caused the first version to appear blurry within the sim!***
This is a fictional rendition of the stunningly beautiful Delta Breast Cancer Awareness Livery for the Qualitywings 787-8. This was a real livery Delta flew on a Boeing 757-232 (Tail Number N610DL) in the early 2000s. There are some subtle differences between the real livery and this repaint. The most notable is the addition of "Colleen's Jet" titling on the left side of the aircraft. I dedicate this jet to Colleen Marchesano. A very young beautiful wife and mother who lost her very sudden battle with Breast Cancer July of 2016. If you personally know a woman who was also affected by this disease and would like to dedicate your "Delta Pink" repainted QualityWings 787-8 to her, please see the "README FIRST PINK" text file for instructions on how to get a personalized titling for her on your jet (in place of "Colleen's Jet"). User can also select either GE or RR engines and can disable the SATCOM antenna.

| North American P-51D 359th FG (IV-B) 'Princess Pat' |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains a second repaint for the A2A WoP3 P-51D Mustang, in the colors of P-51D 44-14534 IV-B "Princess Pat". The original Princess Pat was a P-51C (42-103339) flown by Lt. Edward J. Thorne with the 369th FS/359th FG out of East Wretham. This aircraft was lost 4 NOV 44 to enemy AAA. Lt. Thorne survived and became a POW. This paint imagines he was able to limp back across the lines in his damaged craft and return to duty. 44-14534 did fly with the 369th FS as IV-B, but no assigned pilot is known.
Lt. Thorne was unusual in that he flew from March until November 1944 but never took credit for his victories (by his count, 4-6 in the air and 1 or 2 on the ground), in fact he refused to arm his gun camera. "I do it because it's my job" he said, "...but I don't want credit for it." He is credited with the first reported sighting of an Me-163 Komet rocket plane.
Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the A2A paintkit.

| Slick / Aviation Traders Douglas C-54A |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
This package contains two repaints for Jens B. Kristensen's FSX Douglas DC-4 & C-54 V3.0. One repaint represents Resort Airlines' C-54A (modified to DC-4 standard) N65142 while on lease to Slick Airways from 1 July 1959 till 30 June 1960 for military charter flying (Logair) for the U.S. Goverment. After having returned to Resort Airlines she was placed in open storage at Oakland, CA. The other repaint represents the same aircraft in her British ferry markings she carried in July 1961. Around 1961-62 five ex-Resort C-54s which had been stored at Oakland for some time, ranging from several months to 6 years, were rescued by Aviation Traders (of Southend and Stansted, England) from the scrapdealer's axe and converted to ATL.98 Carvair car-ferry and cargo aircraft. N65142, which was in a very poor condition after her Logair period of minimal maintenance and repeated overloading, as well as the abuse by the elements during the open air storage close to sea water, was one of these lucky birds.
These are textures only. You will need Jens B. Kristensen's FSX Douglas DC-4 & C-54 (DC4_V30X.ZIP). Repaints by Maarten Brouwer.

| Paulatuk CYPC in the Northwest Territories, Canada |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Paulatuk is on the coast of northern mainland Canada, 200 miles east of Tuktoyaktuk and 170 miles southwest of Ulukhaktok. It is just to the east of the Parry Peninsula, which has at its northern tip the Cape Parry DEW line Main Station. Paulatuk was established in the 1920's, and the population now numbers around 320. Paulatuk airfield is close to the village but on higher ground, while the village follows the curve of the coast. The 4,000 feet of 100 feet wide gravel runway is aligned 021T/201T where T stands for "true" as opposed to magnetic in the Northern Domestic Airspace. Only JETA-1 is available unless there is 100LL in drums. There are flights by Aklak Air from Inuvik, which is around 250 miles to the west; Aklak Air is actually Kenn Borek under a diferent name. The AI is for a daily passenger flight, and for a cargo flight on Wednesdays. In the summer, float planes use the lake to the south of the village, but I have no information as to docks or any other facilities; probably there aren't any.

| Kugluktuk CYCO in Nunavut, Canada |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kugluktuk is on the coast of northern mainland Canada on the mouth of the Coppermine River. It is around 250 miles west of Cambridge Bay and 200 miles south of Ulukhaktok. Tuktoyaktuk is 450 miles west. Kugluktuk used to be called Coppermine as copper was mined along the banks of the river and used for spear and arrow heads, and this attracted a semi-permanent population. The population now numbers around 1,450. The airfield is inland from the village and the 5,500 feet of 100 feet wide gravel runway is aligned 121T/3301T where T stands for "true" as opposed to magnetic in the Northern Domestic Airspace. Both JETA-1 and 100LL are available, dispensed by a truck as the storage tanks are just off the northern edge of the field. There are flights by First Air and Canadian North and the AI includes a daily flight of each, plus a cargo visit by Buffalo; the closest large city is Yellowknife, 375 miles south. I should have mentioned a long time ago that to see the apron lights working requires you to have the "lights_ss_v2" by Sidney Schwartz installed.
