Roy: I've just downloaded the pz-28-trojan from the GG site, and it works fine for me. Is it possible you are running FMS 7 and trying to run FMS 8 planes? The planes are not transferrable backwards, but they are forwards. Jonathon: all the planes I've ever downloaded work for me.
All the earlier-version models (in FMS 7) will also work. PAR files can be opened and edited using any text editor, but MANY planes are of Japanese origin so the third (descriptive) column is unreadable unless you use an editor that can read and display these characters.Įric: you say there are only two models (each) suppled with FMS. I'll goive some details in a second note. PAR files (1 to 2 kB) but more-fully-described FMS 8 planes have much larger ones, typically 16 kB.
In fact many provide lots of models whci are really the same one but with a different appearance. HOWEVER very few "constructors" have used the model-parameters properly. Indeed the three big changes are improved aerodynamics, wind effect and model parameters. Terence: the accuracy of FMS was considerably improved (in principle) in FMS 8. FMS 7 models that have been transferred to FMS 8 do not use this feature.
This feature was only introduced in FMS 8 and is only present in models designed for FMS 8. Electric ones can be stopped and started. If you look "inside" the models you'll find this feature only applies with i/c-engined models. Eric: what you've just described is exactly how i/c models work! If you stop the engine it doesn't then re-start when you open the throttle! So what you've described is a FEATURE of FMS not a BUG.
