Dev blog update

     

Some progress on my newest project. Small progress on the DH.98

The 'Bleistift'? Interesting plane to say the least! The Mosquito is just a beauty. Remembering the days of old when playing Warbirds on the Allied side 🙂

[DSabre 2325]

Thank you. It is a Ju 86. I have a weakness for interwar designs. I wanted to start with the mosquito's landing gear or the spitfires canopy - gave up and started the Ju 86 instead.

It kind of clicked so it is one of the rare cases I managed to go from start to 75% (=finished) in a short time without getting stuck.

Made a new Flak module as well as tweaking the damage system.

The module can be synchronized with any kind of unit and will remain active as long as the unit is ok.

You can set target side, range and delay between shots (in VR world it worked fine with 0.01 sec delay which is 6000 rpm).

Already included in naval legends and released today, the module for flying legends will follow sometime.

some progress on the Hawker Hurricane: Going to add the Mk II C version.

Updating the simple interior and some exterior parts of the model (antenna, elevator, rudder)

[Dogone 32]

Love your dedication Sabre... and your mod !! looks great.

Mk II B spotter plane - work in progress.

I plan to make 2 versions: with a forward facing observer and a second with a rear facing gunner.

DSabre, great work. The group I am in is planning a large WW2 op and would love to use you Hurricane aircraft, the only problem is there is no key. Do you plan to add a key, it would be much appreciated.

 

[DSabre 2325]

Eventually once things are balanced. For time being do this in server settings to disable key check:

verifySignatures = 0;

So far there are plans for 3 versions of the Hurricane, 3 versions of the Spitfire and 1-2 versions of the Mosquito (ignore the 4 blade prop).

Hi love this mod. Great to see some RAF planes get some love. WIll there be a the blue photo reconasance colours on the Mosquito and Spitfire?

[R0adki11 3945]

@DSabrei can appreciate that this mod is designed primarily for single player, but in the future will you be adding a key for those that wish to use it on servers? As at present my community is unable to use this addon on our server as we use signature checking.

[DSabre 2325]

Yes, it's planned for the future.

 

Btw P-51 getting another makeover:

 

Metal Effect update

 

More liveries, P-51 C with Malcom Hood

 

New default textures

(Suzy G and Dallas Doll)

 

 

[DSabre 2325]

Refining the Flak Module:

The future version will allow for more control. You will be able to define the size and basic shape of the target region.

 

Flakdiameter defines xy spread, Flakaltitude the z offset

(500m, 200m, 6000rpm)

 

That way you could sort of set up a barrage.

It would still follow the target though and diamater defines both x and y : )

Anyway lots more possibilites

G'day @DSabre,

 

You're doing a great job on those aircraft. Was wondering if you had considered adding the Beaufighter and the Typhoon to your array of aircraft?

 

Keep up the good work. Looking forward to seeing your next releases.

[DSabre 2325]

Hi @DSabre
Just wanted to congratulate you on this mod, it's beautifuly done. Recently did a campaign in North Africa with my community (Around 80 people, 6 Pilots) the Hurricanes work perfectly, never though that dogfights in Arma could be so much fun. Congratulations!
Btw Have you considered doing an F-86 Sabre in the military aviation mod?

I just wanted to say thanks these are truly great aircraft to fly we are doing a the battle of Tobruk next week really looking forward to take these planes to battle! Can't wait to see what else you bring to the table.

[willgh96 7]

These are really amazing mods. Cant wait for the next update.

[willgh96 7]

what paint schemes are you planning for the RAF planes? Any D day stripes??

[DSabre 2325]

Existing planes can easily be repainted (see first post - texture templates).

Regarding further updates - as with all mods may or may not happen. No real plans currently.

[willgh96 7]

I just had a look at the paint schemes and couldnt find any D day stripes apart from on the mustangs. Im dying to fly that Mosquito. I really hope you carry on with this mod as this is one of the best arma 3 mods out there.

[DSabre 2325]

Its templates, meaning you may use them to paint your own textures - not finished paint schemes

 

Actually I am working on a Tempest which would have invasion stripes naturally.

Depending how well the interior works out it may find its way into the mod.

 

 

 

[willgh96 7]

Looking forward to this but gutted you stopped working on the spitfire and mosquto.
