The initial release version will be FSX-only and full P3D support will come in the next releases.

The F-4B/N Phantom II Open Beta will initially feature the F-4B with TacPack capabilities. Down the road the full package will include:

Hello NC,

Here are a couple WIP shots of the Coral Sea in-editor. The version we're doing is a mid-1960s one with the added wedge on the angled deck.
The shots are WIP, there are some antennae missing as well as the textures, which are being modified from USS Midway.

Thank you for the shots! I learned something, as I did NOT know the hangar/elevator openings were different from (say that of the USS Saratoga - which were rounded). Interesting! NC

Interesting!

A a naval architect by profession, I would not have liked such large, squared openings in the sides of the hull. Stress concentration would cause cracks at the corners, especially in heavy seas with the hull hogging and sagging riding waves. I wonder if that was the case in service...

That is an interesting mention , the same with the early jet airline 'The Comet' , square windows WHOOPS snap! .. Midway Class built at speed due to WWII so being the last thought , It was not until the Forrestal class showed sign's of the rounded hanger entrances ... it amazing to look at photo's of these ships with 60 to 80 aircraft but to think they are all scraped now but for the museum Midway and Intrepid .
 
Hi mates! Did someone buy the open beta Phantom? It seems that
the Buy Now Button is not working:dizzy::dizzy::mixed-smiley-027:
 
We've had some red-tape originating problems thus the delay. But we're getting there again!

We are giving our quickstart checklists on our website (for free, of course) to anyone interested in getting a head start and are working on a tactical supplement to be uploaded as well, sometime this week.

After an unexpected delay, we gladly announce that the F-4B/N Open Beta will be available on our store Saturday, February 13 at 16:00GMT. It is sold through [url]www.simworksstudios.com[/URL] at a base price of 40€+VAT.

The first release version will support only Flight Simulator X: Acceleration. It may work without a hitch in P3D/FSX:SE but the plane and installer is compiled for FSX:A so we need to clarify that in advance.

The initial release contains:


  • F-4B pre-1966 version

  • High detail exterior & interior models
  • Detailed textures
  • High fidelity flight Dynamics
  • Many Multiplayer compatible animations
  • Custom soundset from Skysong Soundworks
  • Carrier ready

  • TacPack functionality and loadout manager for the following items:

  • 600 and 370 gallon fuel fanks
  • AIM-7
  • AIM-9
  • Mk.82 versions
  • Mk.83
  • LAU-10/33 with Zuni Rockets
  • Mk.4 Gun Pods


  • Mk.20 Rockeye*
  • Mk.77 Napalm Canisters*
  • M117 Iron Bombs*
  • Various pylons*
*These will become droppable as TacPack gets updated


  • Included manuals: Aircraft Familiarisation, Cockpit Familiarisation, Tactical Supplement (that would be the weapons manual)

NOTE: Before running the installer, be sure to have deactivated your antivirus program otherwise the installer will not start, or corrupt your airplane installation.

Repainters, the Paintkit will be released on Monday so clean up your brushes and get ready for it!



With regards to the carrier, we are working on the textures for USS Coral Sea so we can provide the first public version within the next couple of releases. Therefore, it will not be included with tomorrow’s package.



We are also thinking of initiating a SQUADRON/COMMUNITY DISCOUNT program if sufficient interest is expressed. Please contact us at sales@simworksstudios.com if you are interested. The sale conditions will be made public within the next week depending on the demand.


As this is an open beta version, bugs are definitely to be encountered and some features missing
or removed (i.e. drag chute, inflight refueling). This is not an excuse to sit back, though! For any bugs and problems you may encounter, please go directly to our forum at [url]http://simworksstudios.com/forum/index.php[/URL]. After you register you will be able to see the support forum and post your request there or at support@simworksstudios.com .


Best regards,


The SimWorks Studios team
