Lookin' for trouble...finally got the pilot sorted out :icon_lol:...and kept his anima too!

How are the FPS in CFS2? And I wonder what the 2D and VC look like with all those gauges replaced... even more, I'd like to see how the FD changed with conversion... many of the dynamic characteristics were embedded in the gauges!
 
Well, i confess that this one is probably gonna be a frame hog for medium and low end machines. My frames are btwn 30-45 with a full load of 8 birds in formations. And i aliased all sound and panels to one location to cut down on graphics and sound loading. This is mainly a player aircraft...you can find other FPS lightweights in CFS2 Sabres these days for your AI. Maybe later i'll see if Jan can help me arrange something in a lighter multi-LOD version with scasm.

Would this be a good time to press that trigger FS9 fans? :icon_twi:

If you don't press the trigger and blow it apart you're gonna collide with it. Either way, it looks like you're gonna eat some aluminum.:d

BTW, that sabre sure is purty.

And comin' soon to a sim near YOU!...BTW i got about 600 yards of separation in that shot. You know how CFS2 external views have a quirky depth perception. What's in your 2D or 3D gunsight at 600 yards looks much closer in external viewing :d
 
Section 8 Sabre

Whoo Hoo!

The Fox 4 F-86 is still on AI flight ops though. No rest for the weary.

Oh yeah, the first screen shot is now my background screen for a few days.
 
OK last call...this is just too much fun! :jump:

And as ya'll can see for yourselves, she handles extremely well in a turnin' fight, as long as you remember you have speedbrakes as well as a throttle....:icon_lol:

Every time I see screenies of the Sabre I'm totally blown away by the fantastic detail! Superb job. :ernae: Can't wait for the conversion to CFS2 to be completed.

P-51 and F-86 - North American sure knew how to build war winning fighters.

By the by that Mig looks mighty good too Bearcat, where did you find that?
 
Can't remember exactly how or when i got it Pips, but its a match for the Fox Four AI Mig-15 model. Take the *.pdf extension off the end and unzip to one of your FF Migs.

Don't I know it! It can be disconcerting when you are low on gas and headed for home.:costumes:
Great looking convert BC.
 
A'int bad at all. Hate to say anything negative about a fellow Sim, but CFS3 could never match those. :applause::applause::applause:
