Review on the EMB 120 - spreilly - 03-28-2011 02:59 PM

Hey, guys!

I am flying the EMB 120 right now. It's a great model! I'm just going to review this aircraft briefly

Pro's:

Native FSX Model
Good Animations
Very Frame Rate Friendly


Con's:
VC is from the default King Air; You can see winglets when there are none!
The sound doesn't really work for me.

In general, the model and FD's are excellent.

Maybe, if Eagle has time, they can do a VC? Just a suggestion.

I'd give this aircraft four stars. It's a great model, just needs an accurate VC (or at least one that doesn't say Beechcraft!)

Hello,

Thanks for the review! We used the King Air VC, FD, and sounds since the EMB120 was just a simple FS9 to FSX conversion...we were not really adding functionality. If we had built it from scratch and made it a major release, a custom VC would have been done, but on simple port overs, if it doesn't have a VC to begin with, it likely won't get one. No point in spending so much time making an amazing VC for an older model. Wink

In the future, we might do a custom VC and sound set, but we'll see. Right now, we want to focus on our primary, scratch built, all out projects.


Best Regards,

Brandon Filer

Sounds great! I added the sound set from the Premier aircraft EMB 120ER. I'm thinking about creating a simple VC for it in GMAX. But, to be honest, I am really lost when doing this. In other words, the only thing I am really good at is creating missions and repainting. Other than that, I can't really do much unless I get "training" Cheesy

Thanks for review. We'll see what the future brings for us once we have our current work caught up and released. I for one would like to have a VC for this bird.
