What’s the current situation regarding the Service pack for the F-15? I have installed the beta when it was first released, so is there any point in installing servicepack 1.1B? And is that the finished item?<o:p></o:p>
This topic seems to be slipping of the radar.<o:p></o:p>

Lets just say that it might be possible for us to do more than we thought we could do.......Thats whats causing the delay.

Great.....start another Eagle fight by raising the bar. I'm sure it will be good. Thanks for taking the time to work the bugs on your current release.

:icon_lol: From what I am reading it is more like being able to do what was planned and later thought undo-able. Have I confused you yet? :) It all goes back to the original programmer leaving the pie half baked. Well, it seems the new programmers, whom I don't think need to sleep, may have figured out a way to add the spices which were left out, after the fact.
 
SP soon guys.

On a side note, I just remembered...we have AGM-65's that work!

Crazy the advancements that had been made by such a small team.

I'm kind of used to having a galley and two lavs. I guess a small team doesn't really need a galley and two lavs, so now it has AGM-65's instead...

Screechhh...wait a second. I did some "business" in those white USAF "piddle cans", and eating out of the white cardboard "flight lunch" box, lol. I did it on C-130's and KC-135's, back when I was an Air Force brat and could Space-A. I did five trips on the 130 and three on the 135, and I even got to fly the boom on one of the 135 trips...that was really pretty cool....but I digress.
 
A very small detail, but I would think that the lens projecting the symbology on the HUD would look a bit more 'reflective' or 'glassy' (as far as you can see it anyway).
 
I know that is hard to change the model at this point, but it would be very nice to have a kind of effect of movement of pilot and WSO...
 
Question about F-15E update...

Hi, I have not yet purchased the MILVIZ F-15E because I'm waiting for the release of the final version. My question is, is the 1.1b going to be it for now, or may I expect the release of the version after 1.1b soon?

Thanks for any updated info,

we are awaiting finalization on some code. Once we have that, the product will be released (again). We apologize for the delay... But know that we're working on it.
