+Spectre_USA 7 Posted July 30, 2008 Shoot, increase the weight, add EOGB and launch Mavericks from the wingtips. It's yours once you download it, have at it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
serverandenforcer 33 Posted July 30, 2008 Anyways, this bird is off the wall awesome! Took on 16 Flankers and wiped their burners clean. So, I guess the only thing I would upload is the Loadout.ini, which explains where each loadout is located at and what can be loaded on it. Great job guys! I really like this jet.

wenkman 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Really GREAT !!! But as I am a "shadow freak", is there any chance that the .shd file already included will show up? It seems that it is also linked correctly via the aircraft.ini but still not showing up!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TurtleHawk 6 Posted July 30, 2008 Thanks for the SuperBug! I've noticed that the a/c skin seems to have some missing tiles on the fuselage between the tails. I don't have a way to post a screeshot, sorry. Anyone else have this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wenkman 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Thanks for the SuperBug! I've noticed that the a/c skin seems to have some missing tiles on the fuselage between the tails. I don't have a way to post a screeshot, sorry. Anyone else have this? Yes, I have this also. But after reviewing some books on that, I figured out that there is "something", at least on some pictures I saw. Maybe not that "strong", but seems that between the tails there is some area with special cover or paint (or no paint, of course). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted July 30, 2008 Many fighters have bare metal on the top and bottom of the fuselage where the afterburners are. That's because temps get so high there that paint would blister and peel off. The F-15 is one, I think the Flanker is another. Remember the engines are in the middle of the plane, not sitting right in the tail, so the exhaust has a long tube to pass thru before it reaches the nozzles and that air is HOT.

+drdoyo 2 Posted July 30, 2008 Those dark areas between the tails are supposed to be bare metal areas. I found a pic of #103 from VFA-103 which clearly shows the area to not be painted. However, other pics from other squadrons show the same area is painted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+EricJ 4,245 Posted August 2, 2008 Hey I guess I gotta get a stick and WOI sent to me, but is it possible to angle the pylons as they should be and asymmetric loads for the main wing pylons? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+allenjb42 4,234 Posted August 2, 2008 You should be able to set up assymetrical loading fairly easily by editing the DATA.ini Looks like the DS team have got one of the main players for a sequel OIF campaign. After DS has been released of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+EricJ 4,245 Posted August 2, 2008 Yeah I've had no luck so far though with that, but the angling of the pylons would be nice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
