most of you know that Sophocles is working on a new F-5A / RF-5A with a high detail cockpit and i work on the F-4G also with a new high detail cockpit , Sophocles is able to get the lod size to about 3,84 MB and lower , i have try to do the same but i dont get lower than 6,73 MB for the lod of the single piece winshield version an up to a max of 7,10 MB for the lod the F-4G_78 versions , the F-4G_85 cockpit has a lod sice of 6,83 MB and the F-4G_89 cockpit a lod sice of 6,84 MB as you can see that this lod sices are way above of cockpits we have right now in game , on the Buccaneer i had between 2,93 MB and 3,0 MB and on the F-16C i got the lod sice between 3,0 MB and 3,30 MB so nothing close to the 7,1 MB i have currently on the F-4G_78 cockpit , the problem is now that i found out that this new F-G aircraft with this large cockpits have problems on a specific terrain , the Anatolia terrain , i have 3 versions of this Anatolia terrain a version 0 that is a BETA file i got to test it than a version 1 this was the first released version and the version 2 that is the final version , on the final version i dont have to try my luck because even my F-4E model with TW cockpit is not flying there the only terrain version i can get my F-4G to fly is the version 0 i try to find out what exactly is the problem with this particular terrain an i notice that if the airfield you start on is near to a large city you dont even have to try your luck on terrain version 1 and 2 , i notice in air if i fly over mountain with tree´s up to the horizon i have no problem as soon as i get near to a city my FPS drops down up to 14 FPS if im over the city , so i think the problem is the tod files used for this citys , now i have the heavily moded Germany CE terrain from Rends i try my luck there but with not so high expetations knowing the result from my Anatolia terrains but i got surprised all my F-4G work on this terrain with out any problems now i have to make a desission and for this i need the help of the pilots who maby will fly my F-4G later on , all cockpits are done now but they dont have a ejection seat , my fear is if i add this seat model to the cockpit that this F-4G will no longer fly in a modded terrain , if i dont add the seat some people may ask me why i dont put a seat in that cockpit , i know that Sophocles is adding now different ejection Seats to his cockpits but Sophocles does not have my lod size problems an other think is that i was ask already if i make new cockpits for all other F-4´s out of this existing new ones , problem here is the same as with the seat the lod size my come up over 7,1 MB on some F-4E version i think Sophocles is with his beautiful new cockpits on a safe side , i´m not so sure with my F-4G cockpits , this is the problem if you try to get the cockpits as realistic as possible some info on the new F-4G cockpit compared to the F-4G_78 cockpit , F-4E_78 has 100 entrys for gauges , funktions and lights the F-4G cockpits have up to 226 entrys so let me know what you think about a possible ejection seat and the Anatolia terrain problem

i´m Sorry but i overloocked that post yes the model is finish but the fin assembly still needs mapping , actualy i did not map it yet because i´m searching pictures of this fin assembly showing the rear of it , i think that some details are not right yet if somebody has some good pictures of it that would realy help me finishing this bomb

i made the ASMP and ASMP-A for the Rafale pack , dont know if you search this one here ASMP.7z ASMP-A.7z this weapons have a specific station code "" SpecificStationCode=ASMP "" so if you like to use them on your aircraft you have to make a ASMP specific weaponstation in your aircraft data_ini and add there this specific station code
