She's coming soon....

This is our T-38 on final... we do know there are some issues and those are being worked on... (it is, after all, alpha...)

We have, on board, 3 real T-38 pilots... this will be very much like the C310R in that it's going to have all real sounds, all real FDE and all real systems.

Thanks for looking...
 
WOW!!! I'm very,very impressed with the VC detail! I'll be making room in my Hanger for this,SWEET!!!:jump:
 
I thought you were refering to the Strike Eagle - When when when??? -... But this is looking really good!:salute:
 
Soon(ish)... probably sooner than the Strike Eagle given that there is NO glass in here. Due to the clamoring of the "I WANT SERIOUS AND REALISTIC SYSTEMS" crowd, The Mudhen is taking a lot longer than I had wanted... (longer than ANYBODY on the team wanted).

As to when exactly, I cannot say but we're in alpha phase 3 and moving quite quickly... Night lighting is done as are some of main systems and most of the gauges... just those damned canopies are a real pain!

The T-38C will be coming later as that one has glass and a HUD and will take significantly more coding than the A. (yes, sadly it will be more expensive too)

That said, we are making sure that the Mudhen, and it's predecessor, the F-15C, are using as realistic systems and weapons as possible. If you check out some of the stuff I've posted recently on that, you will see that we are including a ton of stuff that only VRS has done. Full, in depth systems. (militarily wise that is) She will be a lady that you must treat with care... or she will drop you out of the sky.
 
krazycolin,
Did you mention on a previous thread that you are building a new Web site?

Rick
 
We are indeed. But, at this time, only as an addition to the existing one. I.e. adding the tag for "Flight Sim" to the menu and that will take you to the... er... Flight Sim area! We plan on having a storefront although seeing as we are a Flight One client, we do intend to continue using their wrappers though we will sell only on our site.

Right now, I still haven't decided on the look of it... but I do want something interesting...

Why do you ask?

It is nice to have a developers collection all in one area, on their web site, instead of looking through the flight stores for their models. Developers web sites have update sections, forums, future products, etc.....keep the public coming back for more.

I do purchase from Flight One as well....

If you're modelling the canopy opening mechanism/actuators in full detail with realistic animations, I can understand that you refer to them as the 'damned canopies'. They would represent a modellers nightmare ! The aircraft looks lovely, inside out :)

Thanks and looking forward to it :)
 
We have quite a few real pilots on the team, and also some of the vUSAF crew on board testing the birds. So these will be well sorted before being released. As Colin said that has been one of the main challenges of the F-15E is the clamoring for more systems/detail. Cannot complain, but certaintly makes the development process longer. Things are progressing forward though, and we look forward to releasing the T-38 in the not so distant future!.
