how did you fix the canopy on your spitfire I have to do it on my Ju87
Ok no response - sometimes you feel alone in the forum. Not totally surprising as this is new territory. The good news is I have solved issues #1 & #2 on my own. Issue #3 is still open but no big deal. Just need to watch speed and adjust throttle manually. With the fixes to #1 and #2, a new issue popped up: the engine starter switches are automatically in On position on cold and dark configuration. Again, no big deal, just need to switch to Off before turning on battery and APU.
The more concerning area is I haven’t heard back from Thomas Ruth to get his permission to share his model… Scouring the internet, I’m not alone. He has not been responsive to others for some years. His EULA explicitly states one cannot make money from his creation (mod will be freeware) or modify them (no modifications to model), and others can release liveries without his consent. But his email hasn’t bounced back so see how that goes.
Now on to additional positive news. Working on the finer details, concentrating on the default Ground Services. Here are some screenshots.
-
Jetway attaches nicely to model, with main door opened.
-
Baggage cart aligned, with bay opened.
-
Catering Truck aligned, with rear door opened.
-
Bonus screen showing rear door opening and A340 in the background.
Last phase is to revisit the livery paints and see whether I can improve them and introduce PBR texturing. I don’t do repaints so I don’t even know if this is possible.

just release it bro, its freeware its acc not that deep
I don’t disagree. I think I will send another email and just say, if I don’t hear back by a certain date then its interpreted as implied consent. After all, it is an aged freeware but still pretty stellar.

Would that not work with the airbus model ( project airbus) for jeehell? Did anybody still tried it? I still had no time to try it out.
Been showing the GE variant with low res livery texture. This one’s 4K texture and the RR variant. The ramp lights in the 1.10.8.0 patch is very bright. This is taken at KLAX. The mod will have all 3 variants of the -300 : PW, RR and GE. Ramp stairs working and connecting well. Still need to work on shiny and metal effect on the livery to bring it closer to the default FS2020 quality. Hope I can figure it out!

I have a lot of work to do and time to spent to get my model back working again after the last patch. Still cannot believe, that a “patch” can cause me this much trouble. In the meantime, I had to gather all my FDE expertise together, to at least find a single acceptable solution. And it is questionable that I will release the model for general public at all after this “experience” now.
If you are also affected - the patch indeed may affect every ported or converted model -, you may be interested in both these posts:

yup mine got hit with 1.9.5 and broke. Took me weeks to fix. So far so good with 1.10.7.0 and 1.10.8.0. Good luck. We all need it.

does anyone know how to put like an a320 neo cockpit into an fsx model a321?
Still trying to tweak this, but still a bit broken, the cockpit side windows keep rolling open once loading a flight and clicking the handle wont close it and not all buttons still work.

think this is already done and released as a mod.
