good point.....your right none of the planes have stall shudder....any chance anyone from thirdwire could respond to this??

I AM VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE F86. FLIGHT MODEL APPEARS TO BE VERY GOOD WITH A COUPLE OF EXCEPTIONS. I AM BASING MY OPINION OF COURSE ON THE FLIGHT MODELS OF OTHER SIMS. NOT ACTUAL FLIGHT EXPERIENCE, SO IT MAY BE FLAWED.. THE MODEL IS QUITE DETAILED AND ALONG WITH THE REST OF THE PLANES IN STRIKE FIGHTER, VERY PLEASING TO THE EYES. I DID HAVE ABIT OF TROUBLE WITH THE TANKS, AND WHEN I REVIEWED THE INSTRUCTIONS , CHECKED THE FORUM AGAIN FOUND THE TANKS TO BE EASY TO INSTALL. AFTER FLYING THE BIRD FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS ONE OMISSION THAT I COULD FIND WAS THE LACK OF STALL SHUDDER AND INABILITY TO PUT IT INTO A SPIN. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, THIS IS QUITE EASY TO DO IN THE REAL PLANE. GUN SOUND IS GREAT, TRACERS GREAT. CONTROL RESPONSE IS WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER TO BE "RIGHT ON"(OK OLD TERMINOLOGY SHOWING MY AGE AGAIN) FOR A PLANE OF THIS ERA. A REALLY COOL ADDITION TO THE DOWNLOAD WAS THE ADDITION OF THE MIG. WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR. I AM NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE PERSON(S) INVOLVED WITH THE MODEL, JUDGING FROM MY EXPERIENCE JUST EDITING THE FLAME, ALL OF YOU HAVE CREATED A REAL PIECE OF ART. W0W!!!

I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR MORE ABOUT THE TAINTED CIGAR...

wow, cylix....i am flattered you took an interest...hope you like it. fyi i tried to use the mod as the emiiter type o73 too.. but it did not work..will keep trying...as far as a can tell 072 does the f4 073 is the rest...when i did the cut and past then named it 073 it took the flame away from the f105....so back to the mod again...lol

oh what the heck...here is the mod for the afterburner... [EmitterType072] Name=AfterburnerEmitter EmissionType=ORIENTED_EMITTER UpdateType=NON_MOVING MaxVisibleDistance=8000.000000 EmissionRate=0.002500 EmissionVolume=0.010000,0.010000,0.010000 EmissionVelocityTableType=CONSTANT EmissionVelocity=0.000000,-200.000000,0.000000 HasLightSource=TRUE LightColor=0.405,0.396,0.342 LightRange=500.0 LightSrcOffset=0.0,0.0,0.0 ParticleUpdateType=SIMPLE_POINT ParticleRenderType=SPRITE ParticleRandomOrientation=TRUE ParticleLifeTime=0.0600000 ParticleLifeTimeDeviation=0.085000 ParticleWeight=-0.010000 ParticleRandomness=0.010000 ParticleDragFactor=20.000000 ParticleInheritence=0.900000 ParticleColorTableType=TABLE ParticleColor[01].Time=0.000000 ParticleColor[01].Value=0.450000,0.450000,0.450000,0.400000 ParticleColor[02].Time=0.200000 ParticleColor[02].Value=0.350000,0.350000,0.350000,0.300000 ParticleColor[03].Time=0.700000 ParticleColor[03].Value=0.160000,0.150000,0.100000,0.150000 ParticleColor[04].Time=1.000000 ParticleColor[04].Value=0.000000,0.000000,0.000000,0.000000 ParticleSizeTableType=TABLE ParticleSize[01].Time=0.000000 ParticleSize[02].Time=0.100000 ParticleSize[02].Value=0.600000 ParticleSize[03].Time=0.600000 ParticleSize[03].Value=0.400000 ParticleSize[04].Time=0.800000 ParticleSize[04].Value=0.200000 ParticleSize[05].Time=1.000000 ParticleSize[05].Value=0.000000 ParticleSizeDeviation=0.035000 TextureMaterial=AfterburnerMaterial the bold lines should be the changes. i put it into the particle folder after extracting it to the flight folder, you can then copy this to the particle folder and delete the same line.this make sense???

very cool mitch...thanks for bringing more ot the sim..joe biosurge

i got it to work...will be posting the mod as soon as i can get it to taper off a bit better. only one problem i am not able to resolve. the flame now longer, will bury itself in the asphalt when i take off at a severe angle. any ideas??? thanks again to milk and cyrix for leading me into the right direction joe biosurge

i was able to make the modifications to the afterburner. i am still tweaking the effect. it is much longer and i was able to retain the texture of the flame, had some really interesting mistakes though. at one time it looked like there were bubbles coming out of the exhaust..when i have the flame looking better, i will post the changes and the pics....one question though. i can't get the flame to lay onto the runway instead of disapearing into the asphalt...any suggestions??? joe biosurge

cool, thank you

thanks very much..will try out this weekend.. bio

great work beer....thansk for adding more to this sim...really helps...biosurge

the best...

evil milk, cylix, thanks again for your help...can you please explain how time and value of the particle size effects the flame length..what do the values mean in terms of graphic display..thanks biosurge

where can i download the sky effects???? thanks biosurge

really cool!!!!

really cool!!!!

cylix, thanks very much...i will have time this weekend to tinker since we will be sitting in the rain...please if you have time sooner tell me what you find...thanks very much...being here in the biohaz forums i really understand the word "community" everyone is very helpful and quite kind...thanks again.

i am having a problem with uncontrolled bouncing on landing unless the landing is on auto pilot (btw, the landing on auto pilot is off several degrees from centerline and the plane makes a miracle adjustment when it hits the runway). i cannot control the plane at all and will usually wind up in a nose stand or wing stand as pieces start tp fly off.. it can be very frustrating to have a great mission only to have the end either auto pilot or a disaster...anyone else comment????

thank you for the prompt response. i tried the download from biohaz central and was not able to get a satisfactory flame color. i understood it was supposed to be a purplish color but i get the same as before...is there something more to the install that the instructions do not explain??? the ini file explanation, did you already have the changes in it to make the flame longer??? or what do i need to change to get the desired effect... good thing i am not in the game my wife would try to change my flame too....sorry bad joke..

how can i modify the afterburner effect to be longer....photos i have seen show a much longer after burner flame...thanks biosurge

how do i get this plane???

night shade i have the same problem all planes..anyone have a fix???
