Thanks Milton & Team for the initial release of the Lockheed Harpoon ( A WIP Release ) :applause: :applause:

After a very short flight this morning I'm impressed, and if this is only a WIP version then the final product will be an immaculate beastie :jump: :jump:

The sounds are cool , thanks Nigel :icon29:

Pete.

On behalf of the team, Thankyou Pete - That's a great honour coming from you my friend! :icon29::icon29:
 
I concur with Pete's impression....what for most folks would be the release candidate is only a WIP for Team Shupe....and we the lucky recipients of all this generosity can not possibly be thankful enough.
I too took the much awaited PV2 around the patch for a bit and the fidelity of the model and the just awesome sounds are enough to make me giddy....yup I said it giddy.

Cheers
Stefan

p.s. I am checking my stocks in Ouzo to see if there might be enough to convince Nigel to consider the ultimate in radial piston engines...I got a triple tailed line of beauties that would sound just a hair sweeter with a touch of Nigel on her R-3350s.
 
If you are like me and like to fly at dusk or late at night, you may want to try some lights.

I took the liberty of modifying some of the settings in the aircraft.cfg with my own:

[lights]//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing
light.0 = 3, -36.5, 0, 4.3, fx_navwhi
light.1 = 3, -1.2, -37.0, 3.7, fx_navred
light.2 = 3, -1.2, 37.0, 3.7, fx_navgre
light.3 = 2, -2.8, -37.3, 3.7, fx_strobe
light.4 = 2, -2.8, 37.3, 3.7, fx_strobe
//light.5 = 2, -3.87, 0, -3.75, fx_strobe
light.6 = 1, -10, 0, 5.7, fx_shockwave_beaconh
light.7 = 1, -12, 0, -3.0, fx_shockwave_beacon_rotating_red
light.8 = 4, 3, 0, 3.5, fx_vclightaero
light.9 = 5, -1, 19.05, 0.5, fx_shockwave_landing_light_tail_old
light.10 = 5, -1, -19.05, 0.5, fx_shockwave_landing_light_tail_old

Just replace the [lights] section with the above. These work best if you have the shockwave lights, of course. I like a mixture of shockwave and default lights. Other than the addition of landing and nav lights, and replacing the beacons, I did reposition the VC lighting for better effect on my setup. And I repositioned the stobes on the wing tips although they do not show in the picture above (ever try to capture a shot of a strobe light?).

I don't know if the positions are 100% accurate or not, but they do look good. I've removed light 5 as its right in the middle of the bomb bay doors. Anyways, the Harpoon is a WIP and these lights will keep me flying until the final is released.
