Very cool.

Did they fix the annoying navigation lights floating in space that the Growler still has, even in the recent (2nd) version?

Yes they did: (v7 of the Growler)

Recent Changelog 7.0
- Fixed floating navigation lights issue
- Fixed quick view camera issue/not seeing the cockpit
- Hopefully fixed fuel mixture problems when starting on the apron
- New engine.cfg and afterburner effect code

So, logically, it's not present in the F

Looks like I missed the third update (7.0) I'll take a look tonight.

anyone know where to find the weights attributable to the various loadout items?

 

[SeeRyFly]

The weight options are listed in the payload menu. Weights are in pounds, not KG

There isn't enough character space to list out what they are, but you can cycle them pretty fast to figure it out. There is also an excel file in the top level of the package that can give more info, although it is mostly used for development and isn't really geared toward explaining things

It's been updated people!

Recent Changelog 12.0
- Added VX-9 Retro and Vandy 1 paints (Thanks groovyy!)
- Made pilots disappear when aircraft is parked, engines are off, and canopy is opened (taxi lights)
- Renamed model folder to just "model" to help with add-on livery packs

Cheers,

Priller

It's a great package from what I see so far, as is the E/F-18G.

For the F, I'm hoping for a repaint VFA-2 in low-vis / line trim: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:FA-18_Hornet_VFA-2.jpg

As an aside, I've never installed the "Super Warrior" mod for the single-hole E model. Anyone know if that will work post SU-15? I like the single-holer, and it'd be nice to put stores on the Asobo, even if just tanks.

thanks,

dl

I am not sure if Super Warrior is fully functional these days but it doesn't present any problems, and next week-ish I will be posting a mod package for the E that makes it very similar to the F and G in terms of weapons and effects and also flight model, although for that one it's easier to swap the original dynamics in for those who prefer them.

My mod will require the Super Warrior mod to be installed also, so you'll need the base F-18 + Super Warrior + Weapons mod

Thanks - sounds amazing.

The improvements in the F/G over the stock E in features such as the amazing blue reheat flame, the weight-based stores load out scheme, and many others make those two stand out head and shoulders over the Asobo E. The hope to have an E to similar levels would be amazing and would be the Super Hornet triple crown of awesomeness.

Thank you for your incredible effort.
