The FSX Iris F14 - Questions?

warchild said:
I'm taking a wild guess here, but, the Iris model kneels when you drop the towbar. That would cause the angle of the fuselage to be pointing downward which would cause the afterburner effect to look "bent". As wonderful as it is, Dino's doesnt kneel.

Could anyone confirm that?

Second highest climb rate of all the planes i've built so far. 50000 feet in less than a minute and a haLF. and thats documented.. It's a pretty stable aircraft to fly. Very easy to plant 10 feet off the deck and hold it there.. I did a little demo vid of it that you can find at http://jftc.jadeisland.org.
It's not just a pretty face either ( I hate the way this community is all about looks.). i worked for three months solid on that fde, with a couple ex cat drivers feeding me data as well as my own test team. If you learn the plane, i can pretty much guarantee that if you get into a simulated furball with anything else up to a mig-29, your the one thats gonna go home smiling that night.. All you gotta do is pick a point in the sky, and she'll go there..

You did your work well, Pam! :jump:
 
Thank you Odie.. Paul (Delta558 ) and I did our best.. I love my kitten.. Love Dino's too..

We had the same issue with the F-20 Agile.. David had to create 3D afterburners which never quite looked right, but at least they moved with the nozzle.

OK. It's very sad that it won't work...

I'm very agog what Aerosoft will do with their Tomcat in that way...:ques:
 
I think IRIS F-14 is the best F-14 so far, and number 1 in playing with carrier

Here my first paints textures working in for this model:



 
3D aircraft and effects modeling has come a very long way since the F-20 Agile.. These modelers these days are extremely sharp and talented, but unlike the days when an effect such as afterburners were just more files tacked onto a model, todays afterburners are part of the model itself so can move with the model unlike they ever did before.. Yeahh, its pretty impressive..
Look at the bright side though, your only on a cat for a few seconds, and you need to be thinking about that slingshot off the end of the ship.. By the time your in the air, the afterburners are on and your heading home to the sky..
 
Hey Hanimichal very nice Repaint of VF-1 Wolfpack, will you release this for all?


Any Chance to get a repaint of that Cat(BuNo 160661) from VF-84 in the 90's?

Regards Sepp

@warchild you are right, it's only a little detail that is not essential but it would be nice to have (for me).
