scouserlad13 0 Posted March 17, 2009 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: http://www.shipschematics.net/ships/attacker_schematic.gif Cheers Scouserlad13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAKO69 186 Posted March 17, 2009 Is there a weapon in any of the packs that have green sh_t for the alien laser? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+whiteknight06604 934 Posted March 17, 2009 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.

+AleDucat 188 Posted March 17, 2009 With my team we were planning to do an Independence Day mod, with a flyable alien fighter and new alien pilots 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 ) so it could be used here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scouserlad13 0 Posted March 18, 2009 Oh right sweet, i didnt realise there was one already being planned. Well, if i can be of any service, just send me a PM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scouserlad13 0 Posted March 18, 2009 And also, i know that there is an FS2004 model, i dont know if you could convert that to work in SF/WOX? http://www.simviation.com/fs2004misc15.htm The alien aircraft are included in the package. I downloaded it a while back, tis a good mod for FS2004 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zmatt 2 Posted March 18, 2009 (edited) 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"? Edited March 18, 2009 by zmatt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scouserlad13 0 Posted March 18, 2009 (edited) What about just using the soviet tracers, wont they work? They are green anyway Edited March 18, 2009 by scouserlad13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zmatt 2 Posted March 19, 2009 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scouserlad13 0 Posted March 20, 2009 Hmmm sounds like we have got a good mod going on here, lets keep these ideas coming :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
