Bernardo,
Glad you like it.
Not entirely sure about FSX but if it works for you with the Starliner then it should work with the Super Connie.
The flame effects should always be visible in spot view but only if the throttles are at 55% or more, same as the Starliner.
For the passenger views of the exhaust flames, the panel.cfg views must be edited to correspond with the [views] paragraph eyepoint options in the aircraft.cfg.
If you're still having trouble then tell me which eyepoint your using.
Bill

Hi! A few comments: The Taxi Lights work fine with me from inside the cockpit. As Tom said, they don't appear shinning on the rwy. One can see the lamp on the aircraft but not its spot on the tarmac. The fuel crossfeeds had to be toggled a few times to enable Tank 5 to feed Eng 1 and 4. Congratulations to Manfred. My only pity is the loss of the great 2D panel from version 1.1. And those gauges are hard to read in a normal monitor. Soft Landings!

Brilliant!! Manfred et all. After some agonizing 10 minutes downloading went into a frenzy to install the bird and off into the sky. She flies like a Queen with that typical habit my father was complaining about: she is difficult to slow down to circuit speed.
Only comment so far (apart from the remarks above): the nav lights on the non tip tank version fly in formation with her. But alas... it's a masterpiece after all
Cheers Jazz

Bill: Thanks for replying.
I just checked again and no flame effects at 55% looking rightwing view. Have no idea about the eyepoint view. I did edit the line to get the vc a bit closer as indicated in the readme.
I do have an effects folder in the airplanes' folder. I wonder if this folder should go into the main FSX effects folder?
I have done just this, move the contents of the effects folder to the main effects folder in FSX root folder...And they work. Another thing I'd like to report is contary to the readme the wipers work in FSX. And the reverser light too.

Very nice shots Jean-Michel. A question did you copy over the prop textures of the Eastern Airlines over, Or arethese the original prop textures for the TWA?

Jazz,
The non-tip tank nav lights should be in the right place if you change the // setting against light. 0 and 1 in [lights].
If it doesn't seem to show correctly on a simple reload, then try switching aircraft and then reloading.
Not essential but as Manfred suggests in the readme, you might prefer to set up separate folders, each with its own aircraft.cfg settings, for each model.

That's what I did with the AI Super Connies, for just that reason.

Jean-Michel, the TWA propdisk textures are unique for the TWA silverbird scheme, but accurate. They are not the same as the ones I did for the Eastern skin.
