The free version of the model holds some elements of the new one, like the mapping, I hate remapping as do most designers. And because so many freeware painters have asked me to keep the texture maps the same so that the projects they are working one wont be messed up I left that virtually the same.
I have fixed some polie issues with the free one and build 2 new sets of Xml gauges and a new set of sounds as well.
Flight model is all new as well. Textures are now photo realistic.
So a lot more work went into the new $7.oo dollar release, especially setting up 2 new vcs with 2 separate sets of gauges.
I'm not sure about 2d panels yet, I really cant stand them.
Thanks.
