Hi

Brand new here!
I was looking all overto find a single CFS3 Spiteful, but i haven;t found a single one. Strangely enough there are plenty for other microsoft flight sims and all of them say:

Compatibility: FS2002, FS2004, CFS2 FSX

Why only is CFS 3 left out, and where can I get a Spiteful?

If anyone can give me a hand I'd be extremely grateful

Thanks in advance.

Luke

Hi,

Perhaps nobody bothers to develop for CFS3 because it is such crap and the architecture is different.  Smiley

No Spitful yet, but there are a few other planes, including 12 specific (not just skins) Spitfire versions, etc at our group.

Our group has had over 1,250,000  Shocked CFS3 planes, ships etc. downloaded so far.  Not bad for a bunch of nobody's  Grin

Thanks for the replies.

I've had a look over on most of those sites (in fact I think I must have bled them dry by now).  Grin
I also have the excellent Spits from the JustFlight "Spifire" DVD. You guys have done some excellent moddeling and this was the first site I raider for the earlier war birds ("Emil"s and hurricanes).

As to the game being crap, well I think that that's a bit hasty. Sure the standard game is a bit low in the graphic department, but I'm not here to look at buildings!

Any ideas how I can convert the Justflight spits that don't work on CFS 3 so that they can? Or is there an option of converting the afore mentioned FSX Spiteful to CFS 3 Standards? (Perhaps looking at the air files and keying the results into my excel spreadsheet for CFS3 desinging?)

I don't know the difference in the files between the two as I don't want to waste several megs of dialup on a download that might be useless.

Thanks for all the help.

P.S. I got some problems wit one of Avhistroy's Spit XIV cockpits (had like this cracky effect). Have they fixed it, or is there a "cure"?

Thanks again
