G7 series Grumman E1B Tracer

SOH-CM-2023
Second aircraft in the FSX native G7 series, the Grumman E1B Tracer. Most of the animations and materials have been converted over as I have been using the S2F3 source for the materials. Had a little snafu with the Milviz Bell 407 and I have to wait until I get a set of newly updated files before I can continue working on that helicopter. In the meantime, enjoy the sneak peeks:applause: And the update to the S2F3 is forthcoming, stay tuned for that:ernae:View attachment 70474View attachment 70475View attachment 70476View attachment 70477View attachment 70478View attachment 70479View attachment 70480View attachment 70481
 
G7 E1B Tracer, will definitely be keeping my eyes open for this one. Thanks for the preview. Excellent work!!
 
Now we seriously need an operational ESSEX ... with angle deck and the bells and whistles :USA-flag: course need that being the capital country of the aircraft carrier .;) Oophs or the CV42 <input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input jscode="leoInternalChangeDone()" onclick="if(typeof(jsCall)=='function'){jsCall();}else{setTimeout('jsCall()',500);}" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="if(typeof(jsCall)=='function'){jsCall();}else{setTimeout('jsCall()',500);}" id="jsProxy" type="hidden">
 
Ia gree with Ian...

...I would settle for the Essex....Hornet...Intrepid....or Yorktown...or any of the CVS carriers. With the Virtavia Sea King, the Stoofs, and RAZBAMs soon (hopefully) to appear new A-4s, we could pretty much have that whole corner of Naval Carrier operations nailed!

Crikey , its been a default key now for so long on the Yoke switch's , Shift F i'm sure was default :cool: but if you can't find it simply go to the drop down Menu 'Alt' key forth one along -'Options/Settings/Controls - Buttons Keys' the descript would be in the listing for you . <input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input jscode="leoInternalChangeDone()" onclick="if(typeof(jsCall)=='function'){jsCall();}else{setTimeout('jsCall()',500);}" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="if(typeof(jsCall)=='function'){jsCall();}else{setTimeout('jsCall()',500);}" id="jsProxy" type="hidden">
 
As the original FDE for the Tracer was done in FSX, shouldn't take too much review to get her shipshape.

Cheers: T
 
I am sending out alpha tests of the E1-B exterior model, 2D panel, textures, and flight model.
If you have the time, interest, and affinity for detail, and want to help out with testing please PM me.

Thanks

euroastar,

First feedback:

1) EWS Wire Cap weight is not linked to the wire and stays in its holder as the wire extends.
2) Elevator trim tabs do not appear to be animated (trimtab_elevator_01 and 02)
3) Specular on tires seems to be strong; can it be reduced?

Sending out links for download tests now.

Thanks :)
 
Milton ,just downloaded and took her up for a spin,textures look great to me,anamations looked fine on everything that I tested.Only thing I noticed with the FDE was It needed a lot of down trim as soon as it lifts off.Other than that it feels good to me.Bear in mind I,m no professional but glad I could help.
