C-130J-30 Version 2.0 close to completion...

Recommended Posts

I posted this over at Simhq, but for the benefit of those that don't frequent it...

 

I am almost finished an upgrade of my C-130J-30 including a fully functional 3D virtual cockpit.

Here are the upgrades with Version 2.0 and some pics...

 

The main changes/additions to the model in Ver 2.0 were:

- Added all the antennas and aerials to the top and bottom.

- Added pitot probes either side of the nose

- Moved the landing gear pods forward. (The old model didn't

look "stretched" because the pods were too far back.)

- Reshaped the tail and dorsal fin. (Also didn't look right)

- Cleaned up the Wing/Fuselage interface.

- Fixed the landing gear shock animation and made it so the

rudder will turn the nose wheel on the ground.

- Extended the cargo compartment inside the aircraft and

added two new pallet positions.

- Modelled the MAWS sensors on the nose and tail.

- Fixed the flight model to more accurately resemble that

of a Herc.

- Added two external hardpoints for external fuel tanks.

- Fixed the texture mapping on the control surfaces.

- New Hangar and Loading screen.

Once this is released, it will hopefully be closely followed by a C-130J and C-130H non stretched version.

Those are "Daisy Cutters" in the back and it will have the ability to drop anything that you want to put in there with a bit of ini editing.

 

The C-130J/J-30 was the first C-130 to incorporate a HUD. As well as a few other goodies up the front.

Can you make some working pallets for the Herc package? Those who would like to do a LAPES have to use Daisy Cutters for now. Well and the odd modded BMP or jeep but no parachutes.
