World War I, Balloons of War.

Yes he did. I'm working on the mission. Thats why I'm also doing the lighthouses. I have the mission mapped out. I just have to do the events. I needed the L-44 before I could finish it.

I have the orginal scenery as well. We were going to use it at first but Allen wanted to redo the sheds. Glad he did because now they are destroyable.


Cris,

Your miss understand. The L-44 will be Gray.

My repaint, which will be release at a later date, will be the Black of the Night Raiders. So no worries.
 
OK great. i so much appreciate your work on this, the Zep project has lingered for years and i am so glad to see your advances and work on it. great to hear bout the sheds and the missions. what a great accomplishment all of this is. great work.
 
hey Bearcat,

I have an Idea for landing. I'm not sure if it will work but what about skids, Kind of like the UH-1. not sure how to do that in the CFG or airfile but it would be something to try. I'll have to look at a UH-1 and see how they did it.

Since your working on the helo type files I thought i'd run that past you.
 
Same principle as the stock Bell 206 from FS8 and FS9. But i still find the Chinook and Sky Crane concept more attractive. I've been a little busy with RL over the past couple of days but i'm still in the hunt on this. I should have more time over the weekend to finish this.
 
Hey All,

Sorry, I've been working alot of overtime.

I've asked Allen to fix a couple little things on the L-44. Once he is finished I'll get back to finishing the upload. I have everything nearly complete. So maybe by next weekend the L-44 will be up.

I'll keep you posted on the progress.

Till Later,
John
 
WW1 Interface.

Hi Guys,

Glad to be back. I am in the process of building an interface for WW1. It may take me a while, but I plan to have Nationality sets for all participants.

I will update as and when I have time.

Cheers,

PomBee.
 
I have a set from a now long gone site, featuring both RFC, RAF and RNAS as well as the German "Luftstreitkräfte" If you PM me, I can send it for you. Maybe you could use some of it? I know your work will be outstanding, but if just a little of it could make it easier...?

Progress thus far...

Hi Guys,

So far I have managed to do some screens for these participants........

Australian Flying corps
Austro-Hungary
Belgian Air Service
French Air Service
Imperial Russian Air Service
Italian Air Service
Kaiserliche Marine
Luftstreitkräfte
Ottoman Air Force
Royal Flying Corp
Royal Naval Air Service
United States Air Service
United States Navy

I need to complete the sets, but I'll get to them as and when I can. I'm a little strapped for time as I'm trying to run our farm on my own at the moment as my wife is back in Blighty until next Wednesday.

Updates to follow.

Cheers,

PomBee.
 
It seems that what I have (and use on my own WW-1 install) is the one Blood_Hawk23 gives as his "other one": http://tede.org.uk//ww1home.htm

I can reccomend it, nicely done screens, but not as big as what you are working on. This looks fantastic, and knowing the wonders you have done before, I cannot wait to see the result:applause:

Just found the in-game screens.

Hi Guys,

I found the interface screens, but I'm having issues uploading them to box.net. I might try uploading them here, but I don't know if I have upload priviledges at the moment.

Cheers,

PomBee.

You should have them if your able to leave messages in the forum.

Before you do I have a few things that I could add for the Belgian Uires. I can send it to you if you'd like. I've done some custom docs and all of the avalable medals. I've also done a few of the screens. They Follow the Aerocrate format. Here are a few examples.

Some of this was hard to find and even harder to duplicate. Mostly trying to be Historicaly accurate was the hardest part. Plus my French is terrible.

Your welcome to it, if you'd like.
 
Hi Blood_Hawk23,

That would be great. I can't remember how far I got with the Belgian set, I'd have to check by downloading it from box.net. All help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Zeppelin Bomb Racks

From the Howard Hughes film Hell's Angels - the rest of the interior scenes of the airship look realistic, so this representation could be accurate.

Thats awesome Kdriver. Thank you. Looks like I'll have to make some vertical drop bombs.

All of this Overtime is taking away my computer time. So things will be slow on my end for the next couple of weeks. If you need me just PM me. I'll try to keep checking my email.

I haven't forgotten the L-44. So don't worry. I'll get it out as soon as I can.

PomBee,

PM me your email and I'll send out what i have.

Till Later,
John
 
Sorry everyone. Work has been busy.

I'm still going to get the L-44 Released. My skin will come later. Or someone else can do it. Later I'll add the Breaking parts that are missing. It means a bit of work.

I can't give a time frame for the upload but I have not forgotten.

till later,
John
