Metal2Mesh Avionics Upgrade F-15E (Aug 23)

The upgrade is $15.00 US and can be purchased from the product section. I clicked on the F-15E Upgrade icon. Downloading now. Thanks Metal2Mesh for the upgrade on the F-15E.

The HUD is fantastic. Looks like the radar is greatly improved. Only scratching the surface but well worth the fee for the upgrade. Thanks Meta2Mesh for your great addition to an already good aircraft.
 
I wonder if there is something in the addon that would not make it work with Prepar3d? F-15E Mudhen works fine, though. But it sure looks good and will buy this, if it does play fine P3D.

I don't own the AU, but I think it's more of a case that they don't support the product in P3D. It may very well work perfectly, but with P3D being so new, and with V2.0 coming out, financially and time wise many developers are hesitant to test and support their aircraft in P3D. I think at this stage, everyone is just making sure their stuff works in FSX. If it works in P3D as well, that's just a bonus. In the future when things stabilize, and developers learn the ins and outs of P3D, I'm sure we'll start seeing support for aircraft in P3D.

Good stuff M2M, will have to pick this up soon!

Yes, of course it is this way and I don't necessarily expect support at this point. I've used P3D for over a year now as a platform and FSX is only installed for my ORBX DVD's migration. So far pretty much everything works just fine, but there may be some problems with more exotic stuff and pretty much the only one not working and I own is VRS Superbug (I don't actually know if there is anything else with Superbug than SimConnect version check, which fails with P3D).
 
It looks interesting for sure, will have to wait though. Just curious, on the product page just above the Tac Pak thing is says new a 3D model, has there been any changes to the external model?

So if I read it correctly, you get the upcoming V2.0 with new model etc in the future if you buy the Avionics upgrade now.
 
Good job M2M! Thanks for showing true care and appreciation for your labor of love. Can't wait to see some screenies and your future enhancements. Any chance on a video showcasing our update?
 
What's the difference in the HUD? And, can you explain the new features of A/A and A/G mode of the radar? Thanks for your work of quality on this beautiful beast!
 
Gents, see my link to the online manual. A lot will be explained there, including the possibilities of the systems :icon_lol: .

And to Ferry and others, for the update you need a copy of the F-15 Mudhen distributed by Iris. Those who buy the update, will get the full version 2 for free.
Those who hadn't bought the original F-15 or the AU will have to pay the full price for version 2.0 once that one is released.

So just to Clarify.

If you have the Original Iris F-15E = AU will work.

If you Don't have it = AU will be useless to me, until version 2.0, at which time a "FULL Version" will be released which I will have access to?

So essentially, if I pay $15.00 now, I get the Full meal deal with Version 2.0?

Rick, I believe as it states above if you don't have the original Iris F-15E Mudhen as you sany the AU will be useless. Also you must have purchased the original IRIS F-15E to get any of the future updates including version 2. Evidently they know who purchased the original. Buying the AU without the original will not allow you to upgrade to Version 2 in the future for free. You will have to pay full price. Just my take on what has been said so far.

This. But, it is quite obvious that AU doesn't include the whole plane and V2.0 upgrade also uses the old IRIS F-15 as basis. In that way, they don't actually have to know who has purchased the plane beforehand from different distributors. Upgrades just don't work as a standalone install. Installers also probably check, that F-15 also exists on the drive. So, upgrades work like pretty much every normal patch.
 
I thought the Original F-15E was no longer available, but it's still up at all the usual places.. But unless you really can't wait, it will probably be cheaper to wait for the M2M V2.0 of the Mudhen.
