FDG2 historical performance package...

[Rami]

To all,

I have finished the historical performance package for the FDG2 freeware and Donationware fighters, and have uploaded it tonight. I checked the performance of the aircraft in action and in AI behavior, and since I just adjusted the scalars, I didn't notice any real problems with any of the fighters.

This package covers the F4U Corsair megapack, the Curtiss P-40e Warhawk, the Curtiss P-36a Hawk, the Donationware P-51b and the 'Malcom Hood' Mustang, the Grumman F6F-5 with the F6F-3 modification, the Donationware Wildcats, the Republic P-47d-23 Thunderbolt, and the Nakajima Ki-43II Oscar.

I don't profess these to be up to the 1% standard, but I feel they are very close to what the aircraft would have performed like in real life. I hope you all enjoy!

Hi Rami; I really like the F6F-3. I imagine most guys do not use the 2D cockpit. It looks real good, but I am getting 16-20 fps. Virtual and open cockpit modes have great fps. Is it something I messed up?

 

[Rami]

Rick,

For some reason that panel works better in full-screen mode [ALT + ENTER]. I dunno why...

If it really bugs you, you can use this panel...:http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/syb2.cgi?section=cfs&file=F6F3HellcatPan.zip

...and just copy and paste the virtual cockpit portion of your current panel.cfg into the new one.

Merci!

Thanks Rami.

Getting the player and AI flight models to both work in the same aircraft is a feat few manage.

Thanks Rami! I'm lookin forward to getting them installed, should be a cool addition for the FDG2 birds.

Very good Rami! Guess there's a lot of CFS2 aircrafts which could need this treatment..

For the record, you also have this panel. (Made for my stock F6F repaints) Should be a piece of cake to insert it in the FDG2 F6F panel.

I was going to suggest a Morton panel.

Just for the record, I use Morton panels in every plane that I fly and they are available for.

Hey Rami, THANK YOU!

We all needed some accurately powered and flight dynamic fighters.

No government work tomorrow in Metro-DC!
I will be home working on misisons.

Shoveled the 2 feet of snow out of my drive and sidewalks today. Of course can't go anywhere because residential streets have 2 feet of snow on them......

Since I know it will get exposure here...here's a compiled list of airbase.dat entries I'll be working with for the Pacific.

Thanks fellas, I am using one of Mortons panels and a FDG panel. I really like both of them. FPS are great in both. Jeez, I might get over the 100 plane limit just using wildcats and hellcats. I will never complain about new stuff for the pto again. I cannot beleive all the stuff coming out! I'm gonna need a secretary! That is a fine site, Morton.

Just downloaded. I'm with Jadg, Rami. If you got these to work properly for player and Ai and anywhere near 1% standard, I'm ready to be ULTRA-impressed. We'll need a whole new level of 'impressed' to cover how impressed. Thank you, as always, for your effort.
