Hey, just a heads up, I heard over on Alpha India of a new Caravelle AI model posted over on Flightsim. The filename is "ai_caravelle_bth.zip" and the gentleman who made them was gracious enough to preemptively paint some of the most common carriers and the file with the repaints is "ai_caravelle_bth_rpnts.zip" With this news out, I hope to see some of our skilled painters here tossing on some delicious coats of paint

Great news! FSX SE-210 Caravelle Family Base Pack For AI. These models represent the versions known as Sud Aviation Caravelle-3 and -6n/-6r/-10r/-10b3/-11r/-12. They were completed in the aim to respect as much as possible visual accuracy regarding sizes and proportions of each version while remaining AI traffic compatible (five LOD's). Includes paint kit for each version. www.flightsim.com/vbfs/fslib.php?searchid=60086366

This model looks good enough that it reinvigorated my repainting and flightsimming passion a bit, enough to make a list of Caravelles still active around 1994-95. Also adding the type of operation/destinations (if known) and availability of pics in square brackets. Any more info or links to photos would be welcome. Perhaps a project for the xmas break.

It's hard but worth it. So, make simming great again! Changing 1350 sceneries with several hundred AI traffic files (including hundreds of aircraft) along with terrain and UI aircraft I know and like... I’ll stay with FS9. I’ve re-upped once sim-wise and it was hard enough giving up all my work and relearning everything. Old habits die hard. Once my FS9 craps out, that’s it for me. Time to pass the baton at that point.

AIFP makes the converting of AI traffic files from FS9 to FSX a lot easier of a task than you'd think. And most FS9 sceneries (should) work with FSX. It's not as bad as you think.

It thought FSX having a spherical world is why FS9 sceneries didn’t work (as they are geared for a cylindrical world). Plus, wouldn’t the scenery libraries not be configured correctly? I know most of my aircraft wouldn’t translate correctly (models and textures both.) This is not the time or place for another FSX vs. FS9 fight. I’m so tired of them anyway. :’-( linguistpilot: I never knew so many Caravelle’s flew into the late 80’s and early 90’s. I knew of airlines like Hispania, Istanbul, Aero City, Air Inter, and so in flew them but I knew not of the various others around the world.

Too bad there’s no FS9 equivalent... Oh dear... Never even noticed that it's FSX only. Not sure I'll be going ahead then, since the point would be for me to see the paints in my FS9 as well.

cgold, he didn't mean that personally I'm sure. All he's saying is basically think of FS9 as increasingly "unsupported". If you choose to stay with FS9, there is a whole galaxy of material, so it will be a long time until you're truly out of ways to modify your sim. I know how you feel right now, but just like eating an elephant, making the switch is just one "bite" at a time. Very frustrating at first when almost no retro scenery works, many aircraft don't work, ect. Great for most users, but a lot of work for us retro guys. Once the elbow grease is put in, man, it's pretty cool. But most in this community will be running FS9 in 2025 is my bet, and by the time most decide to switch(if they do), these kinks will be ironed out and a retro world much easier to attain in P3D.
