[Ask] How to change Me163_599 / Me163B cockpit?

[BorekS]

prima, I am glad you solved it

some news: the cpit mesh update continues, also some external model changes made, you can see retextured flap related areas and some kind of new skins in work

 

[BorekS]

something special now: for those who like the Me 163B Komet warbird and would like to "meet" my version, there is the minigame which I did with 3Drad game maker - from 12. november 2014 is a new version available here.



well, needs to say this project, called Komet Fighter, is not any airplane simulator at all
it is arcade flight game, but rather then any game is it something like a "meet the rocket airplane of World War II", simplified stuff relating to the slow game engine, its physical limits and performance.

however, it is the same 3d source which is now adapted to its original mission, to be a CFS3 airplane add-on... so maybe it could be interesting for someone here.

you can take it just like some kind of prequel or advert stuff

[MajorMagee]

Interesting. Thanks!

 

[gosd]

Will this modified aircraft be available in cfs3 ?

 

[gecko]

That's the plan! I've been working with BorekS on getting the details and effects and various CFS3 quirks set up. It's a great fun model and you'll enjoy flying her.

 

[BorekS]

yeah time to disclosure some things maybe the Me 163B-1a CFS3 add-on version development is supported by gecko some time already and also by HouseHobbit now - he will try to create some mission stuff for our Komet.

the main visual differency between the already downlodable standalone Komet Figter app / mini game and the upcoming Messerschmitt Me 163B-1a Komet add-on for CFS3 is the interiror, see bottom. left is the simple aracade version (phototexture source used with deutscheluftwaffe.de permissions), right is the actual CFS3 add-on version (wip).

Thanks very much..

never knew of this. that pit is amazing. looking fwd to this.

 

[HouseHobbit]

Oh Yea!!
Thanks very Much..

 

[BorekS]

yum, nice shots thanks for support
well, the main interiror textures are under (re)work now... here are the latest screenshots.



you can notice a new "oxy" item (finally done!), also the cpit side and the front mesh textures are repainted now...

 

[gecko]

Those are looking great!

 

[sixstrings5859]

Looks fantastic,can't wait!!!! Great job!

 

[dmaloof]

cant wait. those b-17 dwoning shots are cool.

 

[gecko]

She is a really sweet airplane to fly, by all accounts it had the best flying characteristics of any tailless aircraft. Responsive, well balanced controls at all air speeds, very gentle stall due to the leading edge slots,and of course the unbelievable speed and acceleration. Your biggest challenge will be hitting anything when your speed is so much greater than that of your target.

 

[HouseHobbit]

Oh Yea!!
Working on several historical missions
<Title> ETO Me 163b Schubert B-17 intercept HH 200

<Overview>***Limited fuel load of 35 percent. to make this mission realistic** 24 Aug, 1944 Jg 400 Schubert intercepted B-17 bombers bound towards Mersburg Germnay. He engaged the bombers from above making two passes, engaging and downing one B-17 each pass, on the bomber formation..

<Intelligence>Inbound enemy bomber formations. Take off and engage the bombers. Climb to 30,000 feet. (9150 meters) Glide back to base and land..
When you make hits from 1000m to 100 meters the 30mm cannon hitting the Bomb Bay makes for some Big bangs..
(First draft of this mission, will adjust as needed on the fuel load need approximately 8-10 mins max.)
Win 7 machine
With the Master Ankor/Gecko (ETO) shaders on and off, Looks great with the shaders on.
But does not look bad with ( the shaders) off either..
WOW!! Thanks to the Masters who are working this bird up..

 

[MajorMagee]

Reminds of this shot from my IL-2 days...

 

[wiekniera]

woohoooo...great mission master hobbit !! nice to see those bat flyin through the sky fortress!
can you make a big large b-17 like in this pic? sure that would be good challenge for those kometz!
Thanks to all master who make this cfs3 into a complete series!..i feel like playin complete old swotl, their finest hour and sierra aces series !!

 

[gecko]

Owen, with the finalized FM a full load of fuel will give you the correct amount of flight time, so you won't have to adjust the fuel load in game

 

[BorekS]

nice mission, thanks for the CFS3 Komet project support
btw, if I good remember the Schuberts mission is made as a cgi movie for one TV documentray, you can watch it there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9GD1V_ASgY

its like a sixth sense, because yesterday I was working on this cgi movie based Komet skin
