EricJ Posted April 27, 2009 Author Posted April 27, 2009 Well despite the fact I'm still in Afghanistan, Lady Luck came to me and gave me a good ol' darn internet drop, so that means I can spend a little more time on the project than trying to squeeze in the MWR line. Gotta pay for it... but it's worth it. Got bored today and started a "MIG-23" scheme: Quote
FastCargo Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Eric, Stop teasing us and release this thing already, will ya? FC Quote
EricJ Posted April 27, 2009 Author Posted April 27, 2009 Well if it's complete by your standards I will, but right now it'll come with two schemes, the famous "MIG-28" and the splinter I did for Vampyre. The green/grey splinter needs tweaking. But don't fear! I got the temps sorted out so I can add that too. Quote
FastCargo Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Well, the only decals I know that it still needs are the decals for Pappychksix's Tawian skin... Otherwise, it's just loading/loadout/hanger screenies... And a readme of course... FC Quote

+SidDogg Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Here's some screens of the drag chute, and textured. The chute is linked to the spoilers, and at higher speeds it won't deploy. ummm...... you DO know there is an actual "DRAG_CHUTE" input command, right? Quote
FastCargo Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 [sarcasm] Naw...really? I never saw that! [/sarcasm] The drag chute command has NEVER worked. Unless something has changed with the Oct 08 patch. Try it yourself and report back in a military manner. FC Quote
FastCargo Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 is this plane ready? For you...nope! And SidDogg, I'm still waiting for your test report on the Drag Chute function, double time there mister! FC Quote
EricJ Posted April 28, 2009 Author Posted April 28, 2009 Just like any other maintenance guy. They're always hiding out when things aren't broken, and when things need a fixin, they say it's not their level Quote
EricJ Posted April 28, 2009 Author Posted April 28, 2009 Got more work completed on the MIG-23 scheme. Apparently the overall fill color was wrong, so it's fixed now: Quote
+Crusader Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 cool skin.. small thing : the model has the RWR antennas aft of the elevators (and possible behind the radome too - hard to see) Only few users had their 5F configured with them, and usually late in service . If you intend to make a "typical" 1980's 5F, its probably a better fit without the antennas Quote
EricJ Posted April 28, 2009 Author Posted April 28, 2009 True enough... but I'm not really particular on details on this one though Quote
EricJ Posted April 28, 2009 Author Posted April 28, 2009 THanks, it's actually based off the MIG-23UB scheme that Soulfreak posted in another topic. I just got the hankering to do it. I'm contemplating a "What If" MIG-29 US Aggressor. Quote
FastCargo Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 Crusader, You are correct. I had mentioned this in a PM to Eric. This model is based on the Taiwanese late model F-5Fs, with the additional sensors fore and aft, the 'shark' nose, wing fences and extended LERX. Because there were so many variants of the F-5F (including extended vertical tails, refueling probes, etc) I decided to stick with one version. I will release the F-5F MAX file to the MF to do as they see fit if they want to make eariler models, or models with different variants of equipment. FC Quote

+Spectre_USA Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 Just to be a total noige, I really hope a T-38 similar skin makes its way out. Having one on the range escorting the "experimental" aircraft I fly is a dream of mine... Quote
EricJ Posted April 29, 2009 Author Posted April 29, 2009 331Killerbee is the T-34 dude on this one.... I'm just the F-5F guy... Quote
