WIP Mega THREAD!

[+Stary 2,426]

one can tos in older Yankee cockpit

[+Soulfreak 6,351]

The Y Cockpit would been an option, if the max file was there.

But the source file is sadly not available.

[+Dave 2,318]

I guess Stary youre going to have to make one for it.

 

Or just release it as an AI. Dont waste a model because it lacks a pit. That's just silly.

[+Stary 2,426]

what Dave says, I know every wants top flyable plane but sometime due to RL you have to release "as is" or abandon the project completely, as in my view keeping it on HDD for the future equals to

[Centurion-1 1,228]

Yeah, on the plus side the cockpit is not super complicated it seems. I am unfortunately swamped in projects and RL commitments have really cut down on my modding time lately...  Perhaps we could make this some sort of community effort tho? Modder x builds some instruments, modder y build the controls... et cetera.. I have long thought about load sharing would probably be very good since it can be quite paralyzing when you need to build everything from scratch..

[+Stary 2,426]

mabe we could ask ErikGen for the original Max file of his older cockpit?

[Centurion-1 1,228]

Would probably be the best way!

[+Dave 2,318]

With the slowing down of the community, any new planes will be a boost. So if anyone is sitting on something becauses its missing a pit but the model is done, release it.

[+Soulfreak 6,351]

There will come a lot of new planes.

waiting for an awnser from Enrico. will let you know.

[stuntman 170]

Such a beautiful model would deserve a release, dave is right. The germany map will get a lot of attention with the upcoming update from rends. We need this plane with it :)

[+RAVEN 414]

P-40B /C Beta uploaded. No pit. :(

[+Dave 2,318]

Still Soulfreak if you can release it without a pit then do so. Makes no sense anymore just holding things back anymore. 

[Wrench 9,426]

and I'm at just the opposite ...

 

partly completed aircraft, that HAVE pits!!

 

(P-47C*, 6 Beaufighters)

 

 

 

*albeit one of Stary's generic pits

[+Soulfreak 6,351]

I don´t want it to release without a pit.

If you had spend so many hours of research, collecting references and working on the paints as I did, you would understand.

Anyway i got the Y cockpit source from Enrico

But, it is quite different (well ... the Y has 2 engines ) ... the only common part is the collimator.

[+Stary 2,426]

that's better than starting from zero I'd say

[+Soulfreak 6,351]

Yes I think so to Stary, but who is willing to do it?

[+Soulfreak 6,351]

ähem....  , how fast would it be needed ???

 

Not in the next 2 weeks. Why?

[+Stary 2,426]

I took it Volker but in my case it won't be rady this weekend or next one

[+ravenclaw_007 7,221]

Thanks Stary

 

but Carlo could you send me the file anyway please

[slick cowboy 142]

just out of curiosity, are you all adding sidewinder pylon on the outer wings?

i think i read somewhere that the F-5E can also carry two extra AIM-9's next to the ones on the tips...

would be a nice addition for air-to-air

[+Crusader 2,050]

None of the 70's/80's F-5E's had AIM-9 launcher capability on the outboard stations, according to the F-5E weapons manual.

I think the F-20 was the first variant who had them.

 

Several recent upgrades by foreign F-5E users added the outboard launchers, e.g. Brazil and several others.

[+sophocles 1,337]

Sure would be nice to have sidewinders on the outboard wing pylons!

[+denissoliveira 1,319]

any help on the f-5 Brazilians only talk to me.

[Dag 77]

Outstanding Work!!! F-5B ?? Wooohooo!!!
