Hey guys,

I'm not sure what's going on with the Omwings F-28 Mk.4000 Shuttle Tribute textures file I uploaded.  It's supposed to be for the freeware package, but it went up on your site as a payware addon.

what's really messed up is I've been trying to find the original freeware package that I downloaded a while back and I can't find it.

I even tryed the other flight sim sites, but nothing. I don't get it.

Here is the first aircraft entry, does this help?

[fltsim.0]
title=Fokker Demonstrator MK.4000
sim=omF284
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=
kb_checklists=omF28_checkstart

atc_id=
atc_airline=
atc_flight_number=1310
ui_manufacturer=Fokker
ui_type=28
ui_variation=Fokker Demonstrator
ui_typerole=Kommerzielles Linienflugzeug
ui_createdby=omwings
description="FS Fokker F-28 Fellowship\n\nFokker´s erster Flugzeugstreich\nKurzstrecken-Verkehrsflugzeug, Niederlande, 1967\n\nFokker´s first Jet Plane\nShort-ranges commercial aircraft, Netherlands, 1967\n\ncopyright omwings, 2006"

And this.

Hi
As it wasn't a familiar name to me I assumed it was a payware texture.

See this:

http://simviation.com/1/search?submit=1&keywords=Omwings+F-28&x=17&y=7

If it IS freeware or you can find the original package that would be good - or alternatively upload the entire package?

We always link to the original required file otherwise users would be completely in the dark.

What I will do for now is de-list the file (It will just be hidden) until you can advise about the required file.

Many thanks

Thanks a mil Pete Smiley

Yeah I thought about uploading the whole package, I just did'nt know if it was ok to do so.

That link you sent me? I looked at the aircraft cfg. and it does look like it doesn't it?

I bet it's the same model as the freeware. It would probably work in both.

This wouldn't of happend if I didn't change the names of the download file when I save to disk. I have to do that or I would be lost looking for them later, Yeah!, Like they say "For every action-Theres a reaction" Roll Eyes

Yeah I'll upload the whole package then. One question Pete, you looked at the files, are the credits to Omwings sufficient enough for a full package upload or should I do more?

                                 Thank you for your help

1st make sure it's not payware ...... I know most freeware models and I haven't heard of this one. It may be what is termed 'abanodonware' but it's always best to check that it's OK to distribute.

Beyond that - yes - credits where credits are due. @@

Hey Pete,  Smiley

yeah.. I don't get it man. I've been looking all over the place for this thing. I been doing web searches using Google, Bing... It's a freeking phantom! Undecided

I wish I could get hold of the folks at Omwings. From what I've been reading, other people have been hunting for the plane and/or repaints for it for some time.

The original download file has a readme that is Very-Simple & Very-Foreign. (To this bloody yank anyway!)

I started getting the files ready for upload, I just have to finish getting everything in order.
Mean while I'm going to keep looking.


                         Thanks Pete
