Ivan Jurcaga Mig-21MF soon! (now released)

Oh great, manual only in czech, videos blocked for copyright infringement (Youtube Germany). Did they let Lady Gaga sing the startup procedure? :kilroy:
I guess I have to wait for an English manual then.
 
Woo Hoo!

Got it started manually and took a flight. :mixedsmi:

Love it! I was just set to get the VS Panther today and saw the Mig-21MF was released. This is definitely more fun! I can wait for another VS sale....:icon_lol:

-G-
 
It is a ton of fun. I flew it IFR today in an ATC multiplayer session..... gave the approach controller a headache as he had to space me in with 3 slow GA aircraft flying touch and gos on a crossing runway.

Still working on my metric conversions though....

If a re-paint package is available, I'd like to see this one done! It's a very cool paint scheme! :jump:

You don't want much do you? :icon_lol: Every one of those "spots" is unique and no repeating pattern. It is pretty but myself I've got too many other projects on the books.

I think I'll stick to what I did with the earlier MiG-21F-13; Yugoslavia, Romania, and maybe Cuba is they fly this model.
:ernae:
 
That aircraft looks amazing. I am away from my pc and downloaded the package to Goodreader on my iPad. I see only bmp textures. Have anyone tested if it will accept dds textures ?

Thanks

Dag, I converted the BMP files to DXT5 DDS and all works fine. I also aliased the common textures to one folder so I could remove the duplicate ones from the other texture folders:

fresnel_ramp.dds
gazik.dds
kukykuk.dds
kukykuk_l.dds
MiG-21MF_budiky.dds
MiG-21MF_budiky_lm.dds
MiG-21MF_forsaz.dds

Thanks, good stuff:)
 
Hi,
Id like to ask the others. Do You star engine with startup procedures? I noticed some difficult to start engine (with videos too). Turbine dosnt start too, only when I push throttle more. Next - something bad with flight model. Roll is ok for delta wings, but vertical flight is quite strange. Very offen plane wants to fly to ground and forces minus vertical speed (with 400 km/h). Sure, I enjoy of this MiG something like 1-2 hours, so small period. Mabye Im wrong, but somathing strange with FM.

http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/member.php?73790-hschuithschuit, what program are you using to perform the DDS conversion or is it a batch file quick/click convert type file?
 
Just tested this beauty. For all who have problems to start up like me (THX german GEMA) .I have simply replaced the panel.cfg with some other from FSX. Okay that really makes no fun but better as sitting in the cockpit and waiting for a new start up movie. I hope Ivan will post a new one ???

For all having issues starting the model, there is a quickstart button in the simicon group you can access by hitting Shift 2. Clicking that button will configure everything for flight except flaps and landing lights. It takes a minute or so for the engine to start but it will start.

I think there´s already a quick start function included!

All you have to do is:
- press SHIFT+2 and
- in the pop-up window press the button for the vehicle (ground power) and after that
- press the quick start button
- after some seconds the aircraft engine spools up ...
