Dino's F35 released!

I made my own paintkit based on these blank textures. Quite eazy actually.
Though i could use a "map" of how the entire fuselage paint is made. This way i can give the fuselage a nice tiger-print for my NATO Tiger Meet version.
 
Jet Noise

I replaced the default Acceleration F-18 Sound file with Iris' F-20 sound file and the F-35 is waking up the neighborhood!

Nice job on this jet and at a great price.
Thank you

Thanks once again for you appreciation.
In the past few days I've been working on a patch for the F-35A. It is almost ready and will be deployed to SimMarket as soon as possible. As many files are affected, I am unsure if it is better to release a patch or a full installation. In any case, customers should be able to download the new files by accessing their customer account.

The patch will include (but will not be limited to) the following features/fixes:

- New wing vapor effects (embedded in the mdl, will not affect third party a/b effects or the light system). The effect shows when pulling more than 4.5 Gs. Wing vapor effects were not meant to be included in the initial release. I've been experimenting with them for a while on older build, using Team KBT effects. The placeholder effect was included in the main release for a mistake - and in fact it was a copy of the Team KBT's effect - my most humble apologies to the authors.:redf:

- New "whiskers" effects (embedded in the mdl, as the vapor) nearby the air intake (as seen on some real F-35 pictures. This effect shows when the AoA is in excess of 25 degrees.

- New weapon configuration with two external fuel tanks and two Jdams (the "unusual" shape of the tanks should be the actual one - according to the information I have). Note to the repainters - this will not affect current repaints, the fuel tank has its own texture sheet.

- Fixed main wheel texture mismatch (this is causing the odd look of the wheels when they rotate)

- Minor graphics glitch in the FUEL page

- Minor optimization to the MFD rendering resolution (should help lower-end systems)

- Minor optimization in the visual model visibility conditions (should provide minimal frame rate increase)

- Alternate .cfg with wrong contact points but no micro-oscillations of the cockpit

- Fixes miscellaneous typos in the aircraft.cfg

I hope I will be able to release the patch early next week.

Afaik, these are typical Hotas controls. I have not mapped them to any button on the throttle in the virtual cockpit as I thought they had no use in the sim (that is I thought it was unlikely that someone would operate them by clicking an area of the throttle with the mouse)...

Thanks, great news.
I'll put my next coming repaints in a holding-pattern, in order to include the new payload version.
The ones i already released will be re-submitted in one package, also including the new payload, and some minor changes.)
Next paints due for release are:

311 Sqn "Bald Eagle", Volkel
313 Sqn "Tigers", Volkel (regular Sqn paint)
306 Sqn, in Tucson colours (with Arizona ANG band, the place the unit most likely will be early 2011).

Thanks Dino!

You keep painting 'em, I'll keep flying them!

NL2000v4 René, with a short flight from Soesterberg to Leeuwarden. (Yes I know EHSB is closed but since both the aircraft and paint are fictional the airfield might as well be too. ;) )

Well, my friend...the flesh is weak.....

I uploaded the 311 and the 313 standard version just a few minutes ago!

Hope you enjoy them and throw us some other magnificent screenies :wavey:
 
Dino, one little question; Does the pilot's visor come up/down with some key assignment? if not, can you program/include that in an update?

Kind regards, Warrant
 
I received an email notification of an update on Simmarket, but I get an error every time I try to download it.

Maybe server overload?

Error

Navy Chief, I get the same error. The file is not found on any server. Hopefully they will correct the problem.
