IRIS - P-40 Kittyhawk: Aces of the Commonwealth Released

Posted on Thursday, June 04 @ 23:44:06 BST by darklord

Flight Simulator X
This conversion is more than just a simple recompile of the previous FS2004 aircraft. We have added four brand new textures in this product representing four of Australia's WWII Aces, complete with new weathering and effects. We have also added new normal map and specular map materials to provide a stunning external experience.

We have taken the time to record a brand new audio package for the P-40 Kittyhawk using authentic P-40 recordings featuring full 360 degree sound panning and new ambient sound for when you're sitting on the ground doing pre-flight. Now you can hear birds in the fields, aircraft and helicopters overhead as you ready yourself for flight!

We have updated the internal cockpit providing a complete set of new gauges designed for easy reading and clarity, and even added a basic 'modern' cockpit for those needing some navigation tools to hand.

Pam Brooker, our resident flight dynamics engineer has done a superb job of the flight model, giving you an aircraft which is a true joy to fly, however it is an aircraft you have to FLY, rather than many 'point and go' aircraft seen these days.

All this, and a portion of our sales of this product will be donated by us to Legacy, an Australian group who cares for widows of deceased veterans and their children here in Australia.

All in all, we're very happy at the conversion of this product and hope that you all will once again, enjoy the thrill of the P-40 Kittyhawk in Flight Simulator X.
