Well here we are once again with another update for the F-22. Not to much to speak of on systems or anything else as we are still in the rendering stage on this one. So all the progress will be in what you see. I will say we are kicking around a lot of ideas with regards to this project at this point, as we feel the aircraft deserves to be done in the highest standard possible. As always comments are welcome, and now is the best time to suggest things you would like to see since it is the best time to do changes. Better now than later, when it is in the sim and would not be worth the time to back track. :ernae:

I'm really hoping this bird has some accurate system modeling. It would be real disappointing if there were no systems modeling in a complicated bird like this.

How many of the systems are actually public knowledge and not classified? I can image it might be hard to get real data on this bird?
 
I hope FSD does a better job at promoting this bird. Some of the P-38 preview shots were well below par from what I've come to expect in any big fsx release
 
A lot of the systems are indeed classified. That is some of the things we are having to kick around as far as what to do and where to take it. That is the problem in doing an aircraft like this, and we acknowledge that. We have been gracious enough to recieve various support from members in the community in trying to make it as accurate as possible. Which is the main reason we try to keep updates on the progress out there. As far as the P-38 goes unsure what you mean about the screens, but there will be a video coming out in the next week or so as FSD has stated. Hopefully that will give everyone a better sense of the project. I must admit for most MSFS products I get a better idea from videos than screens myself, and I am sure I am not alone on that. As for the F-15 I have not seen it myself since we managed to get it into the simulator. It is off undergoing coding for the systems. I read the majority of the manual and sent off a list of things that should be included so we will see. The moment the F-15 comes across my desk I will get some screens posted. :USA-flag:
 
Mr. Steve J. "Roadburner440,"

1. The F-22 use pilot voice recognition to help in the manage of its systems. I use a product called "Speech Buddy" to do the same in the FlightSim; Cuts down on the workload in the cockpit with both pushing keyboard buttons or moving the mouse. It ONLY requires one thing of the developers model:

That there is a "Key Press" (Keyboard shortcut) event for each and every button/toggle switch feature onboard the VC; enabling a "send Keys" function method to be performed by the software when a voice command is initiated.

2. Complete VMS and NAVIGATION avionics package with HMDS.
3. 4096 UHDT VC/External textures.
4. Inclusion of this too HERE, if possible.:kilroy:

If you can make these possible, I would really like that for this model.

Thank you for your consideration. :wavey:<SCRIPT type=text/javascript> vbmenu_register("postmenu_259570", true); </SCRIPT>
 
I just think they should hire some folks, especially people we see on this forum, to take shots for their marketing, because this is just sad http://www.fsd-international.com/Hangar/P38/index.htm

I'm sure the product is amazing, but it bothers me when a company doesn't take the time to show the FULL potential of their product in fsx (i.e. with REX, GEX, Anti-Alliasing on)

nothing against the product, simply wish fsd would take more time in promoting it

I agree...Tigisfat made a post a week ago that blew me away. If you saw the screenshots of the P-38 in his thread, you'd think it was a different plane from the one on their site. Shame on you, FSD...
 
Those are all old dev screenshots. You will see new and better ones soon. Can we keep this one on topic though?
 
That is certaintly an interesting feature Mr. Chams. I would not say it is impossible to do, but highly improbably. I never knew the F-22 had such a system. That is where having the actual aircraft flight manual would be handy. I would say that is an idea best reserved for the future of flight simulation though. It is quite alright as far as keeping it on topic/not. I view these as a general time to air out anything on peoples minds about all projects. I will see what I can do as I have FEX, UTX, & GEX. I just got my new i7 system 2 weeks ago which was a massive step up from my lap top. I did turn all the tree's off though cause they seem to cause more problems than they are worth. Thanks for the feedback.
 
Mr. Steve J. "Roadburner440,"

Yes, the voice system onboard the F-22, I believe, is called Voice Command & Control. I can simulate that if all buttons/switches have a KEY PRESS Event associated with it in the VC. e.g. the gear level have a Mouse Click event and press the "G" on the keyboard to do the same. Using Speech Buddy (and MSN's Speech recognition SDK), I can use a "user defined" command, like "Raise Gear," for the Speech Buddy software to interperate it and send a keyboard command for the "G" key; and, in the sim, the gear gets raised. Its a "Beautiful" system! :ernae: Now, if you can help with putting all the keyboard key events into the VC, I can have this completely. Thanks! :wavey:
Also, Mr. Dave Sweetman, at McPhat Studio's, is excellent when it comes to UHDT repaints etc. Here is their website: www.McPhatstudios.net

As far as the rest, please just make it at-least Navigate correctly. I can live without the rest, if I have to.
Moreover, getting the F-22 AFM is totally out of the question - Its Classified! :kilroy:

Good Luck Sir! :wavey:

Mr. "fsafranek,"
If that's the AlphaSim version out for sale, I would have bought it; but, I "seriously" didn't see it. :icon_lol:
And, it must have been really hard for you to repaint.:isadizzy:
