Bugs in the wind

I keep reading little remarks here and there in various different threads about there being a new FA-18 model in the works......Just wondering if we could get a little bit more information on it.....like who's making it? how far along is it? and would it be possible to get a few pictures of the progress.....especially some cockpit shots.

 

Cheers

I'm pretty sure the short version will be:

"Two weeks!"

There are various shots of it in the screen shot thread of skins that Sid and I have done for it already. I even think there is a pit shot in there.

Hey guys thanks for the replies, I did find the pit pix in the screenshot section........NICE WORK Brain32 !! I love those reflections on the MFD's, are those reflections static? it reminds me of some old Bill Lyons planes for FS9, he had a series of planes that had similar looking reflections on the gauges and it was a very nice touch.

 

I spend probably 80% of my SF flying time the F-18 so I am really looking forward to this new version.

 

So whats left to do in the project? those pictures have me thinking that it wont be much longer.......would you guys say its likely to be more than 2 weeks........or less than 2 weeks?

 

if you need Beta testers.......?

[+Brain32 265]

Reflections are semi-dynamic actually the sun and lighting reflections are fully dynamic

 

There is still a lot of work, more than it seems at a first glance, I need to make a proper SMS MFD page and that takes some time as the game really does not support such things so we have to make up workarounds.

 

I'll post some new pics a bit later

We only have one C version done about 85%...we still have the A/A+/B/D to do and skins...and pits mods....

 

More than 2 weeks......maybe 2 months....
