I've just finished watching Independence day and i got to thinking, there are quite a number of air battles in the film with vast amounts of aircraft involved. So why not make a couple of missions out of it? Only thing that is missing to be able to do this, is the fact that we don't have an alien fighter aircraft. So i was wondering if any modders had any spare time, would you be able to create the alien fighters out of independence day? I would try my best to pull together some missions for release here at combatace.

 

Heres a couple of pictures:

that would be the easy part just mod the tracer.The thing that bugged me about that movie was why shoot air to air missiles with small frag warheads at a floating city a few Kilometers in diameter.I'd just drop iron bombs on the thing.hard to miss a ship the size of Rossie Odonnal sitting stationary over a city.Barring that cruise missile the thing to death from ships and planes.Of course this is before "we" found out about the shields.

With my team we were planning to do an Independence Day mod, with a flyable alien fighter and new alien pilots :grin:

The big a*s ship will be a big a*s balloon with big a*s armour.

 

I'm also working in the shields thing for my Naboo fighter (another fictional mod :wink: ) so it could be used here.

The lasers would be easy. Most Red cannons shoot green tracers in the game. All you would have to do is pick one, give it a very large ammo capacity and make it virtually unjammable and you are good to go.

 

 

I've been secretly waiting on an ID4 mod for some time. We have a Black Knights skin for the F/a-18 and what is more fun than to take it out and "kick ETs ass"?

What about just using the soviet tracers, wont they work? They are green anyway

Take two NR30's or similar. Increase their rpm and ammo capacity and make them very reliable. You would also need a new gun sound but that shouldn't be hard.
