Hello,

 

Very accurate and beautiful!

 

Only one time, in 1989, in Cazaux AB (France) I saw a Buccaneer in flight... fantastic!!!

 

Coupi.

used to see the buccs low level over bristol channel from RAF St Athans....they were made for 50ft wavetop skimming.

Bump

the Buccaneer´s Mk50,S2,S2C,S2D are done for SF2 and now , with the help of Cliff11 , we are converting it for SF1 it will take some time because i have to remove all the drop-tanks and change them as weapons and i have to convert all new weapons to SF1 standart as well

 

so the Buccaneers will be first released for SF2 and then a bit later for SF1 , and then i take a year vacation

ok this is the status , SF2 is finish i just wait for some loading-screens SF1 is almost finish Cliff11 is converting and adapting the RAF versions to SF1

 

as soon as i have the last loading-screens i will send the Buccaneers to the test pilots for a final test and then i will upload them , so it can only be weeks antil you have them

Thank you Sir for all your hard work

[+ravenclaw_007 7,633]

you may have some problems with the Buccaneers in SF1 because of reasons i dont know the distance lod´s for all RAF and FAA versions dont work the only Buccaneer version with working distance lod´s are the SAAF Mk50 (one possible reson may be an max. vertex count per model)

 

- so we will most likely upload the FAA and RAF Buccaneers with out the distance lod entry in the aircraft´s_ini antil we know what is causing this

- this Buccaneers and the Cockpits are High poly models and on some computers this may result in FPS drop or worse , and there is nothing i can do about it

- i have to export some versions of this Buccaneer from 3ds max with decals , resulting in lod size above 2,1MB the reson why i have to export it with decals are that otherwise you would have decal-bleeding all over the aircraft , models with lod´s below 2,1MB dont have decals that would cause decal-bleeding

 

aircraft lod size

- Buccaneer-S2 4,61MB

- Buccaneer-S2A_1969 4,54MB

- Buccaneer-S2B_1969 2,05MB

- Buccaneer-S2B_1983 6,34MB

- Buccaneer-S2B_1989 5,49MB

- Buccaneer-S2B_RAFG 2,01MB

- Buccaneer-S2C 4,61MB

- Buccaneer-S2D 5,87MB

- Buccaneer-Mk50_1965 1,42MB

- Buccaneer-Mk50_1980 1,50MB

 

Cockpit lod size

- from 2,93MB up to 3,0MB

 

i hope that i can finish everything this week

[+ravenclaw_007 7,633]

i just uploadet the SF2 versions and as soon as Cliff11 is back from his weekend we will finish the SF1 version expected upload by mid next week , so no more 2 weeks

[+ravenclaw_007 7,633]
