SWS Midway Battle Group is out

Victory103, if you calibrate any jets not included with our list, feel free to share your assignments.ini and cvaircraftpresets.ini files so we can merge them in for the next update. They can be found in appdata\Local\CarrierExtensions.

A piece of advice: if you want to edit them manually for any reason, use the plain old notepad, as notepad++ will mess up the formatting.



On these carriers it's doubtful, but our tech is being modified to be adaptable to any carrier provided you have the model files and know how to write into a text file. ;)
Would anyone want a Nimitz, for example?

Oh yes please, a Nimitz with proper carrier landing physics would be wunderful!

  1. I'd be so grateful for all you got on the Virtavia and/or RAZBAM A-6s and EA-6Bs. Save me a lot of work this weekend please!
  2. I just think the Phantom is not for me. I'm more a Superbug guy, then a Tomcat guy. Having spent so much time around EA-18Gs as an enthusiast and advocate for OLF Coupeville plus cheering on the US Navy Tac Demo, I feel at home in the Superbug.

On another matter, I don't know why anybody would want to land a F-35 on these carriers. It'd be like time travel!

Hmm, what did I get myself into??? I'll see what I can do and post them up. I have both Raz models, actually just about all "boat" going aircraft from him. I do understand growing up as an USAF brat with the mighty C-130, at times my jungle gym while dad was working.
 
Alex, with Simworks Studios, helped me fix all the difficulties I was having. Both the SWS Phantom and Midway packages are working great now!

MANY thanks to Alex and SWS! Awesome creations! NC:encouragement:
 
Sir Ripper, am I making a rookie mistake here with the in-game hook config while in "slew", my num pad is driving me crazy not allowing me to get the pivot point set on the Raz A-6.
 
Simply amazing:


Making an AI plane trap on a moving carrier in FSX/P3D was hard, not impossible. Impossible is taking a break on holidays!Our carrier tech has provided us with what was missing, so now we can show you this AI A-7 landing on our Coral Sea carrier! Disclaimer: this is a prototype AI development for a future product.
Visit our page on http://simworksstudios.com/ to find the Carriers Extended! SDK and see more info on our products and technology. Finally, our products are on a 25% discount until January 7th, so grab them before the price goes up!

Wow. Alex, great work.
This feature (AI landing in moving carrier) is for the first time in FS.
You guys keep bringing new features, not existing before.
Great work.
 
For us (FS) naval aviator types, this has to be one of the more significant developments in years.
 
Very grateful at this development. Can't wait to have AI A-6s, EA-6Bs and A-3s fly around with me... and at some future point maybe EA-18Gs and F/A-18s please?
 
Thank you guys! We are working like crazy to improve the carrier ops environment in FSX/P3D. With the Nimitz package we're hoping to bring things one more step forward.

Can you tell me what time period are you developing the "Nimitz" package for...?
Do you for-see applying your extended carrier type technology to your support vessels..?
It seems with your advanced development animations you can and are taking flight sim naval operations to new levels....:encouragement:
 
The Nimitz will be in one of its modern, post-2005 versions.

Our tech is applicable to any vessel. I.e. you can animate a destroyer's hangar, weapons and anything else you like right now. We have an SDK for shipbuilders that they can use to make their vessels compatible.

We are also testing the next update of our carriers that will allow placement of formations that actually turn in formation (standard or corpen) and other things that I shouldn't write right now. Think of TacPack and AI Carriers combined, then add some virtual captains & wheelmen in these ships, providing positional awareness.

As for AI aircraft/ships/other stuff, we are hardly making out the tip of the iceberg. ;)

Thanks so much for doing all of this. Naval aviation fans have a lot to be excited about!
