• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I saw this on SimWorks Studios' Facebook page.

I helped in the beta testing of the original so I know it will be right and enjoy the full benefits of this sim. looking forward to it.
 
I contacted Alex Vtlas (Simworks) this morning about the status of their Phantom. He told me that all they've done thus far is to port the files over, so eventually they can begin working on it. No set time frame for even that at this point. He told me, quote, "You can see it in the hangar or runway, but it flies like a Mooney Bravo. It just looks more ballsy." End quote.

All for now! NC
 
I can't show anything YET for obvious reasons but what I can say as i'm working the Phantastic old girl, and will stick my neck out on the line for the Phantom about it, is that i've been upscaling textures into 8K (gotta give the rivet/panel line decal guy a good guide!), On Panel lines alone I've covered the bases off of Pre KY-28 Secure Voice System/Speech Security System installation, post KY-28 install (known as Door 629), Door 19 Mod 3 variation, Door 19 Mod 5c Variation (now why would I do Door 19 Mod 5c I wonder?), all the prior antennae are still present covering a whole slew from things like Shoehorn Mods 1 & 2, AN/ALQ-126 on the intakes.... etc... if you're familiar with the SWS Phantom you're familiar with this anyway, it's a ways off yet as Alex says but it's somewhat active development while sorting the PC-12... i'm being really pedantic about Phantom and can certainly remember many evenings chatting with NavyChief about some of the little things to get it feeling like a Phantom should back on the P3D update of it! and can certainly remember talking about the PMTC Phantoms!
