Planes we would love to have for FSX

Craig Taylor said:
Someone mentioned the more votes the better, so my two cents' worth on things that don't exist in FSX SP2 -- anything from naval aviation, such as:

S-3
F-8
Late-model Corsairs (-5, -7, F2G)
F-4J/F-4S
Fury (although I'd settle for a Navy color scheme on the Milviz Sabre)

In another direction, I know there's a FW-190 "Dora" in the works. Might there also be some Ta-152s? I've ported the A2A "long-nose" but a "native" would be awesome!

Cheers to all the developers out there who are still working to bring wonderful things to FSX! :applause: :salute:

Yes, Santa says there will be a TA-152H-0 and H-1...Go over to classics hangar and you can check the WIP thread for progress:mixedsmi:

The F-4 is being taken on by Flying Stations, probably be a while though given their workload, don't quote me on it but I seem to remember reading something about them doing a Whirlwind as well.

Hey Huub...I'd settle for an HE-51 right about now!!!! :salute:



I have a question....if I put up the money to buy a model at Turbosquid......is there anyone who would be willing to take it and develope it? this is the one....only issue I see is that the fuel tanks are incorrect size.

Also...if I buy a model from turbosquid....what format should I be looking to buy?

Wow, that looks good.
The format depends on what a developer work's with, in most cases GMAX (.gmax) or a 3D Studio max version (.max or .3ds) I suppose.

As far as my understanding of 3d work goes, there might be a problem with these models though. If they are very high poly designs, it is easier to develop a model from scratch rather than start to manipulate it to bring the mesh to typical FSX numbers. Your offer is really great (cheers for that!). If you have a few numbers and figures, like a poly count or if there are any animations included or whatever data on the 3d model you can bring up, please advice.

Cheers,
Mark
 
Seafire 47, and a modern, high speed carrier capable amphibian like the ASR I. FJ Furys. Sader. Barracuda. C-119. Wessex. Cougar.So many, but I expect we'll be in for 2x more chinooks, 2x more mustangs, 2x more F-86's, 2x more C-17's, 2x more F-15s, 2x more F-14's, more Harriers. Hey! Its time for more F-16`s Come on. Its been over a year since the aerosoft F-16! We need another! More FLANKERS too!... I am seeing a trend , dunno why everyone seems to be tackling the same half dozen projects. Oh well. Gotta go where the money is, though the pie must be getting pretty thinly sliced by now. But hey. I`m getting to the point where I can roll my own, so that may be the way to go.
 
Rockwell Turbo-Commander (any variants welcome)

Grumman / American General Tiger preferably the AG5-B version

EMB-312H Super Tucano with accurate FDE and flexible stores loading and FLIR

Where in hell is Razbam's Helldiver? It's been two years since I sent the stuff to him. I ain't getting any younger...

LOLOL!!!!! Don't hold youre breath sir!

Kind of messed up thing to say. But you would know since you develop quality aircraft for FSX. OH wait, that's right you don't.

Helldiver, I believe it is being worked on, just takes time. I assure you when Razbam has some info, they will post it.
 
Well I was a young 82 years old when i submitted everything I had. I'm now 84. How much more do I have to wait? He throws out these flying oil burners right and left. But when I comes to the last World War we won, those planes get completely ignored

I too would love to see this bird done nicely by Ron and team. Thanks for sharing your info with them, I'm certain it was greatly appreciated. Since Ron doesn't frequent here as often as he did before, have you thought about emailing him directly or asking them on their forums? I know this is a passionate request from you, as it would be from me if I served on one of these, but think you might draw more with honey than vinegar. Also, seeing they (Razbam) and many others are moving more toward DCS and their add-on's, perhaps FSX is loosing it's marketing appeal to Ron and many other developers and it's just become a lower priority to him and his team.

Anyway, thanks again for keeping the flame of desire burning for such a long time. I feel confident when it's released, you'll be given the credit due for the fidelity in detail it will have.

Maybe it is part of a plot to give you something to live for:mixedsmi:. My Dad (USN) defended the Texas coast during WWII (apparently did a good job, was never invaded). He is looking forward to a martini for his 93rd birthday tomorrow, not sure what else keeps him going...
 
More aircraft I would like to see in FSX in addtion to what I mentioned before (PAC 750XSTOL, Chipmunk, Alpha 2160) - Aviat Husky, Yak-3 and a new improved Realair SF-260
