Fine jet, flies well, looks great. I will, however, have to convert it to the Lavi-2, like I made the Lavi for the J-10. I, too, am an old Cold Warrior, I cannot lie...

3 pairs of 5 inchers on each end? Fut the wuck is that? Sorry, I am not squidically inclined...

Looks close enough for me! Hee!!!

Land base? Double boo-yeah! I almost always divert to the nearest base to the front, as I like to take off, and land on most missions, if real life gives me the time. To have the hand-off, approach and landing instructions there is gonna be very nice. I've not tinkered with the 3rd party, out of the sim ones, so look forward to an in-game editor...

Oh, yesh! The editor functionality would be WELL worth the price of admission. Anyone heard from TK on this button spotting?

The guy that designed that is currently out to sea as well on the USS Carl Vinson, with the rest of the Fist of the Fleet folks. Best of luck on your next cruise...

Hey Sidd, how hard would it be to do the real CAG bird for VFA-25's? It was recently re-painted with the help of some friends of mine. I, personally, suck mightily at skinning, but you have a bit of a flair for it...

Start -> Run -> Notepad.exe, OK.

Northest corner, there is a tower betwixt a half dozen or so, off the top of my head. It is just north of the area with circles for a SCUD missile target, et. all. If you hit them, they do change to pitted, blackened targets. Been a staple of mine for test hops for years...

I seem to recall something similar happening some time ago, but don't recall the cause. The only thing that niggles my noggin was carrier based issues. When you look at the briefing map, do you see the waypoints starting and stopping at the extreme bottom left edge?

Probably because it is easier on their budget to not host the pics (storage) and display them (bandwidth). Just a guess on my part, but I do see a bunch more adverts these days as well...

There are certain things you really shouldn't do to a Raptor. This would be one of them... :nea:

That looks a little less cartoony than the one released for SF1. Very cool, in fact...

Ooo, guessing games. I like those. How's about an A-9? Seeing as we've already covered the A-10 and Su-25. If these two aircraft, er, mated, this would surely be the off-spring...

TextureStage[01].StageColorOp=TEXTURE_MODULATE_DIFFUSE TextureStage[01].StageAlphaOp=TEXTURE_MODULATE_DIFFUSE But, to be perfectly honest, I have no clue where I got it from in my highly modified SF2:E install...

F_T_A, wonderful job on those shots. Lovin' the grey scale, just enough white blance to keep it in the time period. As much as I'd love to, I'd never fly one in a TW series campaign. Death would be all but assured...

Kestrel seems to work fine for me in my SF1 series folder. It shows up as the ZA-9 Kestrel on the single mission menu...

The SUU-20. Loaded hundreds of BDU-33 (500 lb. stand in) and Mk.-106's, (nuke fake) on the F-111's back in the day. I don't know that any were ever loaded with the 2.75 FFARs, just flew with empty tubes.

Sorry, yeah, I kind of diverted this a touch with my rantings. It is difficult to get a happy medium for the DATA.INI when the same jet performs differently depending on who's driving. Maybe TK will reveal the differences over at Thirdwire, but I wouldn't hold my breath...

Boo-yeah! That is making some serious progress, and is looking very good. Helluva lot of work there, which will be GREATLY appreciated upon release, whenever it is ready...

Yeah, I would like that idea, as it is more real. Or, when you call for help, Red Crown gives you coordinates to go for, as the Calvary is in that direction. That, and request for a divert base, but that is getting way too pipe-dream like. Being beamed in is better than what we had before, so every little bit of help, well, helps!

I think wingmen AI has been dumbed down significantly. The enemy AI has definitely improved, but wingman, no matter their supposed skill level, are just horrible anymore. I am toward the end of a long, grueling NF4+ campaign in the Tomcat, and have 3 wingmen left, after mostly flying solo. If I bring a few friends, they are bound to die. I had the #2 guy in my last mission do a cartwheel into the ground after having him attempt to attack the last Su-17 on a sweep mission, who was hardly maneuvering, comparatively speaking. There are a lot of missions anymore where a couple of helpful hands would be nice...

Under the parameters need to make it work, your "stuff" has got to be pretty much in the wind. I wouldn't say that makes it easier, per se, just more survivable in those missions, which I've been getting a lot of lately, where you are seriously out-gunned...

For an early WIP, that is a fine looking jet. Drive on!
