Darkhorse 1-6 16 Posted April 24, 2011 Are those MFD's done up how I think they are done up? With hiddenselections or setobjectexture etc. or a similar method, where it would even be possible to change them in-flight via a script? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I fixed the nav lights up a lot better.. they are much nicer. Will post a video soon showing the new lights and maybe some carrier ops :) I am going to add more to the MFD's...

SigintArmA 10 Posted May 4, 2011 Take your time man. Rather a polished, fine tuned war machine then a glued together, duct tape held one ^^ Hope you understand what I meant XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jetherjr 12 Posted May 5, 2011 I've been following this incredible work that you are developing. I'm anxious for the release of these models that I'm not sleeping right . I wonder if you guys have planned for the release date for us mere mortals. PS I would like to be part of the test group of Alpha Version . Congratulations for the amazing work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
supergruntsb78 67 Posted May 5, 2011 Take your time man.

I wonder if you guys have planned for the release date for us mere mortals.PS I would like to be part of the test group of Alpha Version . Congratulations for the amazing work I am wanting to release a beta version soon, I am trying to add a few more working instruments to the cockpit and then will consider some type of release. I understand how many of you feel and believe me I am motivated to get this out to you as fast as I can. Please understand that I have taught myself all that I know about modeling, scripting, configs, texturing, normal mapping, copying and pasting ;) (of course I would like to thank also all the people who have answered my questions). So this is moving as fast as possible, as I am working alone atm. I am optimistically thinking that something should come in the near future. when i was in the army i found lots and lots of duct tape vehicles including choppers and planes so please for realism sake release a duct tape version :P just kidding i can only say realy good job so far and i am awaiting the release patiently I feel you.. we had some of those in the Marines. ;) Edited May 6, 2011 by Meatball0311 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Meatball0311 79 Posted May 7, 2011 (edited) Finally got something new to show you guys and this is a nice addition... *Added working RWR supplied by [GLT] MYKE (thanks it works great!) *Added working Landing Gear indicators *Added a working additional compass *Centered Pilots View (I like it the way it is now, it now allows you to have important instrument panels in centered view. I must correct some aspects of it and align the pilot's body to the position. Will fix in next update. *Modeled an Angle of Attack Indexer, which will help in landing. This is not functional yet and I am still learning how to get it working properly. This is something that will determine a release date, so bear with me on this. Enjoy.... rMfRNZmN4e0 **I am wanting to do a little more touching up and eventually improve the cockpit textures. Also an important fact is I have only been working on the new ;) Marine F/A-18F variant.. will get to some F/A-18E US Navy soon Edited May 7, 2011 by Meatball0311 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nodunit 397 Posted May 7, 2011 Quite a nice face lift you've given her on the analogue instruments,and I must say I'm impressed with what you guys have done with the bird thus far, it is nice to see that a version of her will make it into Arma2 with the same spirit she had back then, features features features.
