A new version of Wittmundhafen uploaded by me

Hi guys, ive just uploaded a new version of the Wittmundhafen scenery to the library. and its a lot better than the one i released a year a go. mostly custom buildings, better tree's and lots of them and ground textures, ive also used Mitsuya Hamaguchi's Unimog and Rosenbauer Panther fire truck as static verhicles and ive included some custom textures for the panther, very kindly painted by Andreas Koch which you'll have to add, check out the screen shots, Thanks Andy :icon29:

I hoping this should be fine on frames but you can remove the tree bgl if there are problems.

the Ai i use is the same as the old version but if you dont have that installed, you'll need---
1- ai_f-4c.zip by Fernando Martinez found at Flightsim.com

2- f4aipack.zip by Klaus Hinkel, all you need from this pack are the JG71 Richthofen textures by Andy Nott.
Do not install the Afcad or the traffic file, just the texture's

You should have some basic MAIW packs installed but if you have'nt, you only really need---
ggse_i3.zip FS2004 Military Ground Service Equipment Library by John Stinstrom

All these addons are easy to get from flightsim, oh and if you have the ai Transell lurking on you install, cant remember the designer, then that'll show too

Thanks a lot, Ian! :applause:
Downloading as I type.

I think it's time for a decent F-104G in JG 71 colours. Just cleaning my airbrush... :jump:

Cheers,
Markus.
 
Tired of dull grey Rhinos?
Here's a little contribution to Ian's awesome Wittmund update:

Unfortunately, the CaptainSim F-104 doesn't offer the usual F-104G interceptor configuration with two Sidewinders on the wing tips and two inner external tanks, so you'll have to decide between this full-armed version and the two- or four-tanker (declaring it as ferry configuration will help...).

Just some final tweaking needed.

Cheers,
Markus.
 
Wittmundhafen

Two thumbs up Ian!

As Wittmunhafen is not too far from Jever, thirsty pilots can drive into town and get a cold Jever right at the brewery. In fact, there is some JG 71 memorabilia on the walls of the bar.
 
Looks good guys, esp like the F104 Marcus, looking forward to that one, also glad its running ok for you Jadg, i was worried a little about the frames for you but those screens look great, anyone driving the panther yet?
cheers ian
 
Too busy beating up the JG 71 base with my JG 73 Sabres to drive the Panther. Perhaps after I get grounded for my aerobatics over the base I can get to the fire truck.
 
Fantastic!
Downloading as I'm writing this...
FS9 was lacking a great rendition of Wittmundhafen.
And as I am the Flight Safety Officer Assistent at the 71st FW at Wittmundhafen when on Reserve Duty...I am very, very happy!:applause::applause::applause:
 
View attachment 40945 View attachment 40949 Great Job Ian :salute: THX for ETNT ! :applause: And also thx for using my Firetruckrepaints. btw there is also a repaintpack for the Ai F-4 with Norm72, Norm83 and Norm 2000 repaints. Michael Pearson has created this beautifull old repaints (in the background). You'll find it at AVSIM. Also MAIW traffic is possible, but be carefull. No place to park your aircraft ;-)

Oh, one word to the C-160 Transall. Fernando Martinez has created one as german / french version. Registred customer at "Transallproject" can also download another one and a lot of nice ai repaints for it.
 
Hi Andy :wavey: norm 72 is my favorite.

if you do install the F4's from the MAIW German typhoon pack, install the package into a temp folder and move everthing over by hand but dont include ther afcad for ETNT, that'll really screw things up, like Andy said, the traffic file for the MAIW ETNT has about 30 ac, my afcad has parking for about 15, you can see where im coming from :mixedsmi:, you may want to get yourself traffic tools and lose 15 ac or they'll be hogging all the space's.
cheers ian
 
oh, guys... one word to the firetruck... pls reduce the mainfile to dxt1 if it is to heavy for your frames and / or your System ...... sry this was my mistake :kilroy:
 
Stuart,

Thanks for the tip. I pulled it as well as their North German light houses (Leuchttuerme) and Helgoland Island scenery out of my library. I recall seeing the Phantoms out of Wittmundhafen over the Ostfriesian and Helgoland Islands years ago so now it is nice to explore the scenery from their viewpoint.

By the way, if any of you thirsty pilots ever get to Helgoland Island (probably the most bombed island in Europe in WW II), the duty free stores there have as good a selection of Scotch outside of Scotland as there is.

Quax,

I need to reduce that file to DXT1 as my computer is challenged at times. Thanks for the tip.

Here is Helogoland from FS 9 and from a post card I picked up there.
 
Done!

In order to keep the skies over Wittmund busy, JG 71's F-104G '24+85' in its 1972 appearance is locked and loaded:

JG 71 was put into service in 1959 and originally equipped with Canadair Sabre (F-86E). In 1961 it received the traditional "Richthofen" designation.
The unit's base moved to Wittmund in 1962 and on April 9th 1963 the first F-104G Starfighter arrived, subsequently replacing the Sabre.
In the following years, the F-104Gs primarily changed their role into fighter-bombers, getting assigned to fighter-bomber wings (Jagdbombergeschwader). By 1974, all F-104G of JG 71 were replaced by F-4F Phantom II.

Upload finished.
Enjoy!

Cheers,
Markus.
 
@Jagdflieger, Helgoland was british for a time, as far as I know. Maybe this is the rest of that good stuff from "old times"...? :icon_lol:

@Wild Bill, and this repaint looks great again !!! I think about creating a F-1o4 AI traffic ??? ;)

JG71 "RICHTHOFEN" rulez !!! ....... oops.... :kilroy:

That looks really sweet Bill, thanks alot.:icon29:
by the way, the CP 104 works quite well as an ai aircraft, its actually rather frame rate friendly when ive made up traffic files using it.
cheers ian
