B61, SRAM, B63, and ALCM. and some weird missile I launched once from the KF1-AX (basicalty I can't remember at the moment). As for effects I can't help you there as I regularly don't use them.

Wow Dave, did you put that skin together in a few minutes? Just heading out (Default A model texture)

I'll second that as Column5's work is closer to SF2 standards so it'd take less of a headache than what you're probably heading for (again I don't discredit AD's work either but...) but hey have fun

Thanks! Though I've asked Julhelm to see if he can't send a 3D mesh layer to help out with some of the bits...

More AFX stuff.

Looking nice...

Okay couldn't decide between aileron or flaperons Thanks! Though due to laziness its mirrored on the bottom side as well. I don't think i need to go overboard with riveting either... Trying to give it obviously a more production look as possible. And messing around a little bit with the Shadowcat

I would say game focus as the famous quote was "to be able to fly a few nifty planes" (I know I butchered the quote) but I think it wasn't designed to be so complex like other games (LOMAC, DCS series, JT) so he didn't focus on stuff like aerial refuelling, ejection sequence (which is at the bottom of things I'd like to see) properly modeled, etc. So when it first came out it was cool but now the more experienced simmers (and new ones) want to see the "cool" features because we've invested a lot of time and effort and would like to see some more progress with the game than what has been currently seen. And we've also played simulations where the cool features were modeled but prefer it in this environment due to the ease of modding (at least in my world view).

That was actually in the Wiki article I read yesterday when hunting for the marking system the Iranians used. Not too difficult of a cheap edit.

The thing is that TW is three guys... not like when I was working with Ubisoft, which had mainly the Eagle Dynamics team and conversely MORE people (I think they had like twenty people on the payroll if I remember the photo right) so its to be expected as three guys are handling all the coding and texturing, and oh by the way we want to release a new game. Besides the more complex stuff you put in, the smallest change somewhere affects something somewhere else, so its only natural. But I do agree that we're doing the betatesting after release than prior. It's not good business where the buyer has to get to the point that the benefits aren't worth it. I still stick with it because really other than the spawning over the airfield, it's not bad. Besides the benefit to this game is that it doesnt't take long to exit, edit, and restart the game and get flying again. And to echo what JM said, it's this backlash that TK is aware of that they did a poll to see if it was better to take some time and work out what the problems are than trying to rush another patch out, because in the rush we have what we have. So unlike Ubisoft, which didn't give two sh!ts about public opinion on the matter, TK does care and unfortunately its this one bad WHOOPS that seems to have really gotten everybody.

Thanks! I think I need to refine it but for some reason I wanted a unit emblem on there ASAP as opposed to nothing... silver skins sometimes can be so boring. More riveting work done on the "wingtips:" (I only call them becasue they are an actual moving surface as opposed to just wingtips, though roll sucks and I know it's not a complete FM)., a small demo is below the top image.

Aggressor

More work and also thanks to Coupi for the wing,,, tips,,,

http://combatace.com/uploads/monthly_01_2011/post-12105-037897900%201294229475.jpg I'm liking this configuration but no birds in the Street or Six Pack... and two Fs like the image below.... Just with the two tank configuration since I'm sure you don't have the bombs which is fine... Not sure if it's doable but one or two Es or Fs with full tanker four tanks and pod installed and tanks on the rest one on the centerline and one on the right inner (reflecting a combat configuration) and the few Gs just with two tanks. CVN-75.

Yeah it's just a recolored version of the one I fly around all the time. When I was doing the IRIAF Tom I wanted to try it out and it works fairly well And no problem!

Yeah you have to edit it a bit but I've been using this since it came out, and no problem!

Going more across...

Ahh okay.

I've used radar to cue (myself mainly visually) 9Xs during engagements, or stick with padlock most of the time.

Got a little creative yesterday while working on another skin

Fair enough but I personally (maybe I've never flown a campaign) they've actually attacked the ship to really worry about it, but hey something to account for I guess....

Some more range time.

Aren't carriers invincible anyways?

I'll vouch for Win 7 in that it's just nice and relatively trouble-free.
