Hi Dino,

Assuming you have the visual model animations for this Typhoon under full control: maybe a good moment to include the "weapons drag" feature now ?
Let me know if you still want it, 'cause it probably requires some tweaks for this model .....

Best, Rob

Great news Dino !!! Mike

@All - thanks for the appreciation

@rcbarend ...good idea! I'll write you an email as soon as I can find the time...

Still WIP - over a more "natural" environment for the Typhoon - Torino Caselle (where the Alenia plant is located and where the Italian Typhoons are built).
By the way Trend has published a ransomware decryption tool that can, in some cases, decrypt the CERBER (which is the ransomware I got :-( ) - Unfortunately that did not work.
I was hoping to recover, between the other things, the Typhoon paintkit... but it seems it is not possible. So for the moment the Tiffy has one livery - maybe I'll add the "primer" one later on... - we'll see.

@SixGhost... I made some (hopefully) good use of the models you sent me
Tacpack weapons configurator is now complete...

Wonderful Dino! Glad you found them useful!

Some progress with the outer model (...almost complete!)

Looks stunning

Nice work as usual. Will be possible A2A refueling ?

Nice work! I have seen so many docos featuring the Typhoon recently, really looking forward to your excellent model being released Dino. I am waiting patiently of course, I know these things take some time, to understate it.

Cheers,

Wow! Dino, you make it so hard to walk away from FSX. I really want to try to migrate to Prepar3D, but seeing all these great titles still being released primarily for FSX first, then porting over to Prepar3D makes it tough to leave. Thank you for such beautiful works of art, as well as thanks for all the great payware and freeware developers. You all keep this sim running so strongly.

I believe Dino works primarily in P3D so you're safe.

Thanks...I just have a hard time leaving the droves of add on's I have bought for FSX and I know many will port over fairly easy but doesn't always seem to be a straightforward operation. I just see these great add on's screaming to be flown in my FSX rig. Admittedly, I need to read more up on Prepar3D and the license choices, what does and does not work in Prepar3D and most importantly, whether Orbx sceneries, landclasses, and Traffic AI are even necessary.

This model just looks great and I'm not really a Typhoon fan, but this one is going on my hard drive, whether it's FSX and/or Prepar3D.

Dino, you're doing awesome work... again

Dino, I just wish I had more time for FSX. Your upcoming Eurofighter is why. I'm so grateful you've stuck out the past 10 years making quality add-ons for FSX, most of the time for free. Thanks.

A real beast and a real beauty at the same time!!!!

 

[Dino Cattaneo]

Thanks for the appreciation!

Just to clarify one point - YES the project is being developed to be compatible with both FSX and P3Dv2 and v3.
The leading development platform is P3Dv3 - this means that I am optimizing the model and the graphics for this platform (no major things, but there are some minor differences in the shaders).
So, it will look better in P3D.

Most likely, the versions will be functional except some sensors (Pirate and TFLIR) which most likely will not be available in FSX.

There will be an unique installer that will allow you to install the software in FSX, ESP (if anyone uses it?), P3Dv1, V2 and V3

This is a payware effort - but will not be a super-expensive add-on.... price has not been set probably around 25€ + taxes - this is also thanks to the free contributions by some talented developers.

Regards

Dino

I am sure that every euro will be worth. We have enjoyed many of your free excellent works before. Thanks a lot, Dino.
