+column5 Posted September 24, 2008 Author Posted September 24, 2008 Good idea... But when did they join nato? And by the way, wouldn't have they be more focused, alongside Italian and Greeks on some mediterranean/Balkan front? Serving in Italy and Greece against the SU, Romania and Bulgaria? Or perhaps against Albania and SFRY too. It reminds me of a great The Operational Art of War II scenario called "blue danube", describing that southern front of WW3 and it was very interesting. I would love to some WW3 sim action in that part of the world. This is my thought as well, I don't want to exclude anyone, but I would like to put them in their likely AoO. If someone could make a Mediterranean campaign with the Black Sea and part of the Ukraine, we could have some real fun. Massive carrier ops...
Mig_eater Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 I really enjoy NF1 and 2 but i'd (as has been said earlier) love some more RAF or RN aircraft - particularly the Sea Vixen from a carrier. Another aircraft i'd love to see included is the Vulcan. I also get a problem with the RAF Lightning where it automatically carries a sidewinder - a missile it never carried in reality - you might want to tweek that! Will there be busy, bustling airfields? Really looking forward to this one! - Alex

Really looking forward to this one! - Alex The new specific station code feature should allow me to force the Lightning to allways carry either RedTop or Firestreak. Thanks for bringing that up, it does need to be addressed. No A-Team mods will be included, so that rules out the Vulcan I think. Can you point me to an appropriate RN carrier?
Emp_Palpatine Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 A-team does not want? :( And isn't the Gina a A-team mod?
+column5 Posted September 24, 2008 Author Posted September 24, 2008 A-team does not want? :(And isn't the Gina a A-team mod? The Gina in NF3 is by Erikgen and is of excellent quality.
Mig_eater Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 That's a shame about the Vulcan, but never mind. As for the Sea Vixen's - they were based on the Ark Royal, downloadable here: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=1365 Thanks - Alex
Emp_Palpatine Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 Yeah, a shame for the Vulcan, but if it's the modders' will. Can't wait for the NF3, btw! Oh, and will there be F-111?
Mig_eater Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 One other thing I always found a bit annoying was the Tornado HUD - due to lack of a bomb pipper I always found I couldn't do really accurate bombing (like I can in the Jag or Harrier), so I always found I never flew the Tornado - will you be fixing this? - Alex

Yeah, a shame for the Vulcan, but if it's the modders' will. Can't wait for the NF3, btw! Oh, and will there be F-111? No, I can't include the F-111 because of restrictions on the use of the cockpit.

+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 Maybe MF is on something that start with a 1 and ends with a 1 and in the middle is just one.....

Perhaps you could include troopers tornado pit repaint, here http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=7280. It has a HUD update included.

+DWCAce Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 On a different note, I like the logo for NF3... I think it would look good on a zap... and maybe placed on of of FC's a/c (j/k)

+whiteknight06604 Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 (edited) I don't know if this is a rout you want to go down C5 but maybe since there is so many request for different nationalities you could add one squadron the caould be changed easily to the campaign that might be used for different nationalities with some simple(?) ini changes.I have no idea if or how hard this would be but maybe some of the research for some Spanish/french/Norwegen or whatever squads could be done and then dropped into the campaign.just a thought.Also C5 do you have plans or even time to make a say...Nato fighters South with maybe some Italian Greek and Turkish squads?Thanks again for everything you have done so far I'm really looking forward to this.

I think what I will do is just write a tutorial for adding/removing/changing squadrons in the campaigns. Its not a completely straightforwards process. I'd love to do more pack like this, but it is completely dependent on getting good maps.
WDH Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) How 'bout an RAF Buccaneer S2.B seems tobe the forgotten workhorse of the cold war era.Think it was made by Blackburne? Just an idea... Edited September 26, 2008 by WDH
kct Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 You mean the Blackburn Buccaneer? Yup, I think it is.
Viggen Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Hasn't the Bucc been a WIP for years now? And won't it remain so?
Mig_eater Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 I totally echo the Bucc idea - would be great to get that aircraft in. Also, how about Harriers operating from unprepared strips and USN carriers?? - Alex
+Soulfreak Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) a buc would be cool. haven´t got Team MirageFactory overtaken RussoUKs Buc Model? Edited September 26, 2008 by Soulfreak
crl848 Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Hasn't the Bucc been a WIP for years now? And won't it remain so? I've learnt not to think about it.
Luiz Carlos Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 I've learnt not to think about it. Well, can I ask for the Mirage f1 in NF3? One of the best looking Mirages EVER.(I´m crazy about mirages )
WDH Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 (edited) Yes that's it!Blackburn Buccaneer S2.B..was thinking that and just spelled it wrong.RAF has/had great mudmovers.My favorite RAF and very impressive airbrake system.I mean,the end fueslage seems like it splits to make the airbrakes,not to mention the armament was very impressive also.So,it should be very "comfortable" in WOE NF3. Can u see Tornado's escorting at high altitude while the "Buc's" come under the radar and do a little adjustment to local industral park or just make commerical land somewhat cheaper?Just before that,Jag's come off the treetops to get SAM sites to activate radars only to realise the communication and powerplant has ceased operation due to the 1st wave Tornado struck 25mins earlier,then go immed to "mop-up"of any enemy groundunits still posing a threat to the "Buc's".Just as it seems an ez day at the office...MiG's and Su's start in to intercept the NATO's finest and......... Sorry,i'm back ...Yeah,Buccaneer be nice... Edited September 27, 2008 by WDH
