Finally got all the little bugs worked out of this puppy and then added a few goodies!! Functioning VC, sonic boom, pushback/taxi gauge, added carrier capability, updated: gps, radio, AP, afterburner is controled by the throttle now!(this took forever to get figured out! ) realigned the smokes and afterburner.
BIG THANX goes to Boikat & Felix/FFDS for their help and advice on my first conversion project. This might be a small project to some people, but after spending a few days of tearing through .cfg files, I have a much larger appreciation for the people that design and create these amazing addons!  So an extra thanx goes out to everyone who lives to do this kinda thing, wouldn't be the same without you!
Look for decent screens soon!

Are you going to upload it for us other SU fans : )

I think this is an existing FS9 model converted to work in FSX.

Nice work socialgarbage. If you intend uploading it please take note of what Felix told you.

It would be a lot easier to upload the complete package but I would take note of what Felix says. He has a lot of experience in these matters. You might not get a response from Alphasim but permission to modify their freeware files seems to be implied providing you respect the simple conditions in the Readme. Quote:

Yeah.   Who knows, maybe we ahave a "rare bird" in our hangers.

Thanx, I'm glad you like it! Over 1,000 downloads in 2 days! and not a single complaint yet!   

I would like to offer a second paint scheme for this aircraft, similar to the paint on the Sukhoi in MOUSY's tag, Is a paint kit nessacary or can I just modify default textures?

Thanx again!

In all fairness, I am by no means a designer. All I did was some gauge swaping and file adding. Alphasim made the plane, and talented countless others did all the hard work by designing and creating it, I just modified it a little to make it work in FSX and added a couple of other goodies to the package.   I am glad you like it though, makes the effort worth it.
