More detailing and panel line work:

Should seriously pass it on to TK...

That post or during processing? Regardless of type it'd be nice for a good NVG effect... Nevermind... I did a CAS mission at night in SF2 once and actually had enough light but still..

Couldn't shake the phrase of "Free Willy" when taking this shot.

More work, getting some access panels added from a picture FC sent me this morning. It's nice in I have a guide but keeping some panel lines as I go along just to keep it fairly nice.

You have to realize that this was developed in the early 50s-60s not today so concepts and designs were... more esoteric than they are today, and as FC poiinted out developed before the area rule was discovered. And naturally it never developed beyond prototype stage. Google the F-103 and you'll get more information on it too.

Me too as we got most of the planes already for download...

Love the Strike Eagle

More fun stuff regarding weapons and some more work. There are two sets of internal bays on the F-103 as modeled. The first set is actually controlled by the player, i.e. manual bomb bay doors which open to reveal rocket launchers (AA) and Falcon missiles. The other set are automatic opening and closing Plus some limited panel work and the view from the current cockpit.

Extract this from the 7z file (you'll need 7z for the majority of the mods here anyways) and put this file in your Flight in the User/Saved Games/Thirdwire/SF2Game/Flight folder. I have it set pretty high which allows me what you're looking for as obviously the default is horrible. The setting you're editing is [MapSettings] and it takes some tweaking but as said these values are what I like. FLIGHTENGINE.7z

You're welcome!

Nope, the F-103 Thunderwarrior that was a proposal in the late 50s-early 60s but obviously never made it into production.

Random choice and something simple to skin up for the project. That and the years that FC has the plane fits into the time frame of the Red Devils. Pure coinkeydink.

It's not bad so far, just not my flavor as right now the FM is "flyable" able to reach Mach 3 on sustained burner (see SF2 screenshot thread) and in my mind goofy looking. FC wanted an "operational" one as it never made it past the prototype stage so I settled with this version for now. Next batch of WIP photos I'll show the gimmicky stuff which is actually pretty cool. But right now the only external ordnance are the tanks.

And now for something totally different... Been starting working on this for FC in conjunction with the Sex Plane... F-103 Thunderwarrior... Markings so far from a 3331Killerbee 431st CO F-106 or -102

Skin looks good SidDogg Is it a bird? Is it a Plane? Maybe... But I don't need no Blackbird to go Mach 3

The right... Next headache the nose and more work for FC's project.

Beautiful work Sundowner...

thanks both! Tail redux:

This one is going to get out of control quick and it's real tempting to be just as guilty... Okay what's the problem tomy2010?

Reduce the number of "SamLauncher" notations on the map _targets.ini file. Besides the SA-6 isn't very difficult to kill. Just kill the radar and you're set and use a jammer...

Left tail work, and then going to bed...

Good Golly Miss Molly...

Oh... SF2E default skin I believe

View File F-14 VF-31 CO Last Tour This scheme represents the embarked scheme (from Vampyre's photos anyways) of VF-31 Tomcatters CO bird in 2006. Needless to say this will ONLY work on the Mirage Factory F-14B Thanks to Dave for additional assistance.
