Help me with f-16b
Gr.Viper replied to triplethr3at's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Erm.. did you paste the plane in First Eagles or just missed the subforum? -
Nope, this is not about YSflight realism pack. This is about Dogfight which is a cute litte action-packed and absolutely free game where you can fly this or this maybe even these or if you're into sci-fi Grab it here. The default language is set to German but can be switched easily in the lower right part of main menu. Choppers (and Soviet planes) included! Another thing to look at is Ramjets, which is basically a game about unarmed air combat. Just nail the enemy into the floor either directly or by knocking off their control module. Controls are a bit difficult to master though Much more fun than it looks.

Don't see it in the queue for approval. Try upping again. -
Morane-Saulnier Type H & Pfalz E.I RELEASED
Gr.Viper replied to Laton's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
Approved.. You're full of surprises, guys -
I have a suspicion that not the DH2 model itself but it's shadow .LOD is too complex. Maybe it is a copy of one of visual LODs which really should give videochip a hard kick.
-
And what happened to DH2's?
-
I'd be happy see DFW T.28 Floh in FE.. but no one's making it :cray:

Morane-Saulnier Type L/Pfalz E.III Packs RELEASED
Gr.Viper replied to Laton's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
Arrgh! AI scored more kills than I did! Pfalz is fun to fly. Morane is fun to shoot down. Hit the pilot right at the back of the head -
Morane-Saulnier Type L/Pfalz E.III Packs RELEASED
Gr.Viper replied to Laton's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
Rrrright. Who's gonna make the Zep busting mission for L type? -
Don't know about track but skins are usually available via Loadout screen. That's the one you get to by pressing 'Loadout' on the briefing screen.

OFF is great if you want some really hard times and get arm ache from maneuvering. Also ground fire there is merciless if you dare go near the ground.. And you can fly over a HUGE detailed map of Europe. I might go London-Berlin some time. FE is good for having fun massive dogfights without much lagging.. and without worries about some technical limits of old fragile canvas planes. RB3D somehow has everything apart from realistic cockpits and fancy detailed graphics.. But for now that's the only flight sim where I saw neat wing warp and wings getting deformed after collisions.
-
He did. And Warneford, who was the first who brought down a mid-air Zepp, did fly L too.
-
If we had 'Parasol' one could make that crazy mission involving bombing a flying Zeppelin at 7000 feet
-
The funny thing is that Germans DID try to cover their Eindeckers with transparent 'fabric'. The plane was transparent, but reflections could be seen many miles away, also blinding the pilot himself. And the cover could be ripped easily... Can someone mod a pair of wings for the pilot? And a 360 'turret' of one machine gun hanging below on a rope...

First Eagles Flanders Terrain Released
Gr.Viper replied to Edward's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
Link http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...p;showfile=4424 Already gave it a try... static planes with ground crew around look amazing. The coast with all those cities is also great -
If only there was a way to convert bend into move/rotate animation... Theoretically, if we make a wing out of large number of smaller components we can animate their movement so that it looks like the whole wing is bending. But what about gaps between the elements? They can be done like overlapping scales but an enormous amount of work will be required to animate and texture each scale. Wing warp also involves bending both along and across the wing so units' shape has to be rather inventive to cover as much space as possible... Despite efforts would be impossible to keep texture from falling apart.. Forgive my insanity, but... scale-winged plane anyone? Damn.. there's also 10-animation-limit involved.. Never mind

No wonder, they called it 'Fokker Scourge'

I was just browsing and came across this stuff http://www.aerofile.info/fokkerd7/d7html/pprmodel.htm If you're feeling lucky or have some skill at making paper models, you might wanna give it a try. I know, I will It mentions some freebies at FG website so I went there and found a couple of pre-war non-combat planes A Sopwith http://www.worlds-smallest-air-museum.com/FREEBEES/TABLOID/ and Bleriot http://www.worlds-smallest-air-museum.com/...EES/BLERIOT-LG/ Then I got a bit carried away and... Kodron G3-A2 http://jtdigest.narod.ru/dig3_01/museum.htm Desc is in Russian - but the schemes are self-explanatory, just make sure the part sheets are printed at the same scale. Simple Sopwith Camel http://www.recortecole.com.br/biplano/biplanoE.htm And also quite simple Dr.1 http://www.recortecole.com.br/triplano/triplanoE.htm Morane Saulnier http://www.modele-kartonowe.com/morane/index.html Eindecker with quite a number of paint schemes http://www.modele-kartonowe.com/fokker/index.html

Some fun with paper, glue and scissors

WWI sim - Based on the IL-2 engine announced!
Gr.Viper replied to ArgonV's topic in WWI Flight Sim Discussion
It's open but doesn't have any English info... http://www.gennadich.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page -
Heh.. I just tried Wings of Honour: Battles of Red Baron. Believe me, in comparison to that FE is a really hardcore sim. In WoH, the planes collide head to head and keep bumping into each other mid-air like toy cars. There's no such thing as lift. And you have machine gun, guided missiles AND bombs. Even on Eindecker.
