SF2 F-15 Eagle Super Pack Redux 2018

This is a full stand-alone pack, no other mod packs are required. This pack is a REPLACEMENT and NOT an upgrade for FastCargo's F-15 Super Pack. You cannot simply install and over-write Fastcargo's F-15 Super Pack with this pack. Nor, can you over-write this pack with Fastcargo's F-15 Super Pack. This pack contains higher resolution jpeg skin files, so if you over-write Fastcargo's pack with this one, you will never see the new skins. If you over-write this pack with Fastcargo's pack, you will lose all the latest data files for flight model, weapons loadout and etc. If you just want the upgraded skins, those skins are available separately in the Skins section of this site. A later versions of those skins are already in this pack, so please don't upgrade this pack with earlier version of Viper63a's skins. Please refer to the "Installation" section in the Readme file, it will explain how you can install this of both packs

- The Mudhen Team!

This pack contains all F-15A thru D Eagle variants (including Js). If you want the F-15E Strike Eagle variants (including SE), you can find them here.

Superb job gents!

**SUDNAVY** · June 1, 2016

Please forgive my English is not good, I hope you can understand as much as possible in context what I mean.

It's a good pack , thanks for your great work!

1.The F-15C_Akef_85_DATA is old one,we test it, 40% of the thrust only to fly more than 200kt in 10000 feet.

the file of data wrote this:"// WOX 2008 Flight Model",so I said this is a old data,we hope you can use the same date as other one.

2.1.My friend suggested the leftwing and rightwing CLa to 1.55, we believe this is more realistic.my friend told me he think the 1.55 is right,but I'm not sure ,If we're wrong, please forgive us.

3.I think the thrust axis and the value has a problem, I think the thrust of F100_PW-220 should change to 65000.you can check the data.and I suggest change the thrust axis to “ThrustPosition=-0.721,-6.50,-0.00 and ThrustPosition=0.721,-6.50,-0.00".and I suggest change some data to this:

IdleThrottle=0.10

IdleRPM=0.68

IdleNozzle=0.0

CruiseThrottle=0.37

CruiseRPM=0.82

CruiseNozzle=1.0

MilThrottle=0.65

MilRPM=1.00

MilNozzle=1.0

MaxThrottle=0.78

MaxRPM=1.00

MaxNozzle=1.0

FullABThrottle=1.12

FullABRPM=1.00

FullABNozzle=0.0

I made reference to the value of TK F-15A engine, and think it is reasonable, of course, this is just recommendations.

4.My friend think the Canopy shape of F-15A\C is not right.

that's all at the moment , thanks for your great work .If we are not right ,please tell me and forgive us.

No need to apologize. This is how it works, this is how things get better and we all learn from one another. Appreciate your interest and suggestions. We can look at this...

Thanks!

**madvad** · June 1, 2016

A very nice package, indeed!

But i think the FM need a update, the FM is "overpowered".
For example, the F-15DJ with heavy payloads can reach Mach1 whitout afterburner at sea level.
Or supercruise at high alt.

**NIELS** · June 1, 2016

Thank you guys for this package...........SUPERB!

**Wilches** · June 1, 2016

Superb indeed! I can live without the tweaks, but once posted, I´ll grab it. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

For example, the F-15DJ with heavy payloads can reach Mach1 whitout afterburner at sea level.

Or supercruise at high alt.

I came back after a few hours of flight.

Some suggestions, in addition to FM review that described above:

- The canopy in the single-seat version is a little different from the original, especially the curvature above the driver's head.

The original TW Eagle can give you a basis for comparison.

- I believe that the simulation of the ailerons, stabilizers and rudders is not 100% correct. If I'm not mistaken, above Mach 1, the Eagle only use the stabilizers to make the roll movement.

- The Loadout some versions is wrong, and is duplicating some missile rails:

13312693_1103165216422184_30312370050517

+**Viper63a** · June 3, 2016

Canopy, We're using F-15C LODs, there are no F-15A LODs in the pack, so yes the canopy will not look like stock TW F-15A. There is nothing we can do about the canopy, someone who can model will have to change that.

Ailerons, I believe TW stock does the same thing. We can turn them on or off, bur we can't stop them from working after Mach1.

Weapons, Did you select the weapons or is that default from loadout.ini? Which plane and what mission profle?

Edited June 4, 2016 by viper63a

**Stick** · June 4, 2016

I think madvad has loaded those Sparrows on the CFT stations (without the CFTs) in addition to the standard stations. The loadouts provided are fine otherwise.

The entry MaxControlSpeed=180 works for the rudders so I think this may be applied to the ailerons. Will have to experiment.

**Toryu** · June 5, 2016

I think the stock F-15 has a better representation in the roll-axis (not as twitchy in roll-rate but crisper roll-acceleration), while the superpack is better in pitch.

The take-off is a bit arkward: The elevators become effective too late, but tend to overcontrol. The Stock-F-15 just rotates on it's own, though.

The landing-gear acuation in the F-15 is pretty quick IRL (about 2-3s) - with the superpack it's hard to have the gear tucked away below 280KIAS.

Just a couple of things I recognized. Getting the roll-behaviour right is a PITA - have tried that on different airplanes a million times myself and have never quite been satisfied....

Ok, i test and you is right.

In the same rail we have a choice between 4 Sparrows or a CFT.

But i think the Sparrows options need to be deleted.

BTW: You just made me buy a sh1tload of F-15 books. Thanks for that! :blackeye:

Hello uys.
I install the updated 1.05 version.

And whats is happened:

13450088_1117547061650666_38914505112868

The ejection seat not work and this fakepilot appear...and i check again and again, and all is OK in the installation for me.
I the earlier version, this not happened.

Some tip about?

Edited June 22, 2016 by madvad

**madvad** · June 22, 2016

Nevermind, i fix it ;)

**madvad** · June 29, 2016

LOL...looks like a stowaway hiding on the centerline tank?

OK, what was wrong?

I installed a mod who automatically created the "Pilots" folder.

I use all the "pilots" archives inside the same folder of the Aircrafts.

+**Viper63a** · July 4, 2016

What's New in Version 1.07 - 2016\07\04

> All new Flight Model with assistance from Stick using Crusader's 2012 files

> Cockpit tweaks for Pre-1985 Cockpits using Crusader's 2012 files

> Tweak loadout for JSDAF jets.

+**Viper63a** · July 5, 2016

With v1.07 release, All the issues\concerns reported with v1.05 should be resolved? F-15 can no longer super cruise (without AB), the throttle settings were completely changed (AB start at 85%, not 70%), the ACM handling should be similar to TW stock...

In v1.07, we upgraded the older FastCargo FM with the work done by Crusader in 2012. Then we bumped that up some with what Fanatic and Spudknocker added for this pack in 2016. So this should the latest "best of breed" FM available for the F-15...its a big pack, so we didn't get a chance to test everything. We're guessing you will tell us if we missed something....

Thanks!
