IRIS PRO Series F-14A & F-14B Tomcat

Yaaay she's back, my favourite bird in my favourite repaint sitting pretty in FSX.
Thanks to all involved

added a shot of the FS9 VF-41 repaint, I simply shoved the bmp's into FSX a little bit of jiggery pokery and bingo. Thanks for keeping the mapping the same

Dude.. those are awesome :) .. Please send more :D :D
 
Here I am with the dreaded FPS question: what kind of performance are you guys getting compared to, say, the Acceleration Hornet?

In other words, find "y".

Acceleration F-18 = "x" FPS.

Iris F-14 = "x - y" FPS.

"y" = ?

:mixedsmi:
 
For me Killbilly, it is x + y = 27-30

On my rig the Iris F-14 gets much better FPS than the default Hornet.

Yep, that HUD is sweeeeet.. :)

For peoples info, I've finally finished adding annotations to all the vids, so we've got some instructional videos now, from cold and dark startup, departing the boat (if you have acceleration), VDI and HSD use, Compressor Stalls and my trip around the boat at night!

They're located on the product page, just scroll down and click on the vids..

Thanks, man. That's what I was hoping to hear. I know it's different for every rig, but that gives me confidence. :ernae:

It's Pablo Diaz's dirtied up version of the VF-1 paint for the FS9 F14. It can be found HERE you'll have to register I'm afraid, but shouldn't take long. Once downloaded I converted the files from bmp to dds and added to FSX as usual.
 
Ive added the shockwave lights to the Big T

light.8 = 5, 23.0, 0.0, -2.0, fx_shockwave_landing_light_narrow

Same location as the FS9 model. If anyone is interested I was able to add auto smoke for exhaust, Ill post if anyone wants it.

Bill
 
I will be getting this!

Loved your FS9 version & BB's paints still working are icing on the cake!

Some of my efforts.

I do seem to have a problem with the textures around the gear area on the coverted paints though.

Looking a the shot by Pernik, he has the same trouble.

yes there are two extra textures in the new model maingear_right_t.dds and maingear_left_t.dds these appear to replace the original maingear.bmp
 
Cheers mate, that explains it.

Now just have add the skins to the various models, as I have only got them in the clean version. That will be something for the weekend.
 
simply take the maingear.bmp from the repaint rename it to maingear_right_t.bmp ( or dds if you have converted the bmp) take a copy and rename the copy to maingear_left_t.***
