THIS PROJECT NEEDS YOUR HELP
If you are willing to help with modeling, texturing and systems, we encourage you to join the BanditSim discord. We are friendly people! Link in the main folder when downloaded (txt file)
Here's the BanditSim L1011 paired with the asobo 747 cockpit with custom tristar style textures.
Modernized l1011s with glass cockpits where planed for the RAF and the curved windshield with the angled glareshield do look somewhat similar between the two so it's not that far off.
I also added 9 new liveries and a blank one. I've never done liveries before so don't expect 4k
The project is opensource and is available on github (link in the download, with a cockpit aswell).
I am pleased to announce that the project is ALIVE :D you can find more details about it on the github including the Discord link!(Say hi ! He's a great guy and deserves the praise) Thanks so much to Banditsim for resuming work on this very promissing project. Thank you to Ingmebs and uli057 for offering their help as well. And thank you to everybody who downloaded, commented and provided feedback and words of encouragement ! The hype and overall positive responce got this project back on track :)
Credits go to BanditSim for the plane and asobo for the cockpit
Special thanks to kevin.widjaja21 for modifying the 747 cockpit to remove the 4th throttle lever along with the engine fuel control and fire retardant knob and disabling related buttons.
To install, unzip the rar and select the "banditsin-aircraft-lockheed-l1011" folder inside the main folder and drop it in the community folder. You will need to remove the previous version if you have it.
If you have the 260 caracter too long path issue, try moving the rar directly in the community folder and extract it there. move the aircraft folder from inside back to the community folder and delete the main folder and rar left behind, works for me every time.
For those of you who want proper sounds, I recommend the HJG sounds for free (move the sound.cfg into the sound folder) copy the sound folder and replace the one in the tristar, then update the layout.json and you should be good. This mod is not salty compatible at the moment.
Happy flying!

If somebody can fix this, be my guest. I can't figure it out. Get the original: https://github.com/BanditSim/L1011-100

Hi Charlott210. Thanks for trying. I've been trying too, disabling the sound etc. but nothing I've tried helps. The original version on GitHub works fine, but as you say, the Flight deck is very basic - no pedestal etc. I'm sure somebody will find a solution before too long. I just wish people would read the full description before leaving poor reviews and limited stars.

there's only so much I can do and I could not figure it out. And my description was upfront about what this mod was trying to accomplish...I'm tired of getting low ratings for trying to help out. You have the original one in the discord anyway

Could you please make a previous version available to download? Ever since the new sim update the plane lags the sim every 10 seconds from 60fps to 3fps and it stays basically frozen for a good 4 seconds. It was a 4/5 star plane before the latest sim update, now it's completely broken.

I thought it was just my game, It has been driving me nuts. My favorite plan and the freezing gets worse the longer it runs. It sucks I had the previous version and literally cleared my recycle bin after one test flight as this issue didnt start happening until a few days later. I just want to fly my Tristar but it freezes so much it becomes unplayable. I searched everywhere for the previous version and its gone. I am trying to find someone to fix this addon but nobody is willing to help me because "I need to learn how to code myself, specifically just to fix one MSFS addon" really the coding community seems really mean sometimes.

Brilliant addon everything is good apart from that it lags every 10-20 seconds when i use outside view, I don't know if you can fix it but if you can that would be great.

I had the other version that is listed on this website installed, after I found this updated version I promptly installed it and now only using this plane causes 25+ long game freezes constantly. It happens about every 10 seconds and makes the game unplayable. I can't understand or figure out why and what is making it do this with this updated version but I know for sure the previous version I had was working perfectly im so disappointed as this is one of my favorite aircraft to fly and now I can't. I am going to attempt to rollback to the other version I had if I can still find the download on here and see if that fixes the freezing. If it does maybe there is a cache or something for that specific plane I need to clear or other file from the old version that when using this updated version causes this issue. Help would be appreciated its driving me crazy that I cannot fix the freezing constantly issue only on this plane. Thanks in advance!

I'll look into it as soon as I can, life's been very busy lately. Tbh I wish somebody would pick this up and lift it off my shoulders as I'm really no expert and the whole point of this was to get help

Very nice plane, glad to see my favourite airliner in game! The systems aren't the absolute best and some small bits of exterior modelling are off, but I love that it is FREE and the flight model is good for what it is!
