Shashman 0 Posted June 24, 2003 Do you plan making a black version like in Ace Combat 4 Â ? just for the "beauty" Â Ace Combat 4 is a console game, an arcade "flight sim" I'd much prefer it if you released it in the now standard USAF ghost grey, which is being adopted by more and more countries. I think desert,jungle,snow camo,etc...for aircraft is a thing of the past (unfortunately some might say) and wouldn't really be suited to the F-22... Just my 2 E.cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
havocsquad 0 Posted June 24, 2003 Ohhh, bout time someone made the Raptor, it's 1 year overdue in my opinion.  Make sure you allow maximum range for the AIM-120C's that you put on it.  Don't forget, the AIM-120B's and the AIM-120C's are different in looks slightly.  Six should be in the main bay. You might try linking the Thrust Vectoring nozzles animation to the movement of the elevators.  That would eliminate any need for excess scripting if that idea is possible. Then have two sidewinders in the side bay in their holds near the intakes, one sidewinder on each side. If you know this stuff already, don't get frustrated or angry at me.  I like as much realism and real specs as reasonably possible, because I'm a perfectionist   Yes, everyone run quickly away. I can get you a screenshot of the cockpit of the F-22 in Janes USAF, which is FAR better than any crap they call a flight sim with the F-22 Lightning Series.  I got the game with a bundle from another game I wanted, so I played it for 3 months then I wanted to vomit. The gameplay for F-22 Lightning 3 was horrible and the realism was purely non-existant.  It made me so mad that I was tempted to break the CD of it, but I held back because every once in a while I needed to NUKE everything in a 5 mile radius and that was my release against that game.  Ironic isn't it?  Anyways, I am seriously asking around for ANY help or volunteers to assist in making Banners and web page art, or creating a professional looking web site design for an OFP aircraft and aircraft related only OFP web site.  The name of it will be "The Local Hangar" and is now just in the preliminary stages of deciding what to do, but I have a few people already wanting to take part in helping with the burden of this great project. Aircraft includes (Fixed-Wing, Rotary, and Hybrid) Anyways, I would not talk about this in this topic except to ask for help from any of you about this.  Especially Aircraft Addon makers. I am decently experienced in web site maintance and correcting problems and changing things, I just suck in the creative department.  That is why I am asking for volunteers if not regularly, just assist us in creating something great to start with.  If you can help with this in any reasonable way, I will work my rear end off to assist you by any means I can. I know that most are very busy in daily life and have little room for extra, but I would be very honored if anyone with banner and web page art skills or good web design skills can volunteer some time to help me. Finally, I wanted to say that it would provide some structure and Order to where OFP aircraft addons can be found, it would include FAQ's on basic aircraft use, operating procedures (takeoff, basic aircraft combat, approach, landing, etc.).  It would also allow an area where all the Aircraft addon makers can go to talk about their works-in-progress and finished products with other Aircraft addon makers. If you want to talk about this to me, I have ICQ or YIM, or you can E-mail me. ICQ number #91310176 YIM ID: havoc_squad Email address:  havoc_squad@yahoo.com  Later. Havoc.

killagee 0 Posted June 24, 2003 I must admit that for years I was addicted to Total Air War, the best F-22 Sim around... Very Realistic when on medium setting. The game is made by DID, who also make real flight simulators for the USAF and RAF. They also made the EF-2000 Eurofighter game, but I didnt like that one much... Cant wait for an F-22 in0game! Remember that the USAF has said that it is going to make full use of the F-22's Ground Attack role. Hence... It has officially been re-designated the F/A-22 Its Air to ground outfit includes: JDAM, LGB's, JSOW, JASSM, HARM IV, Mavericks and possible the Brimstone or Hellfire II. It has 4 outboard hardpoints, the two inside ones are "wet" for long range fuel tanks... If you need videos or close up shots or weapon configurations let me know couse I have a few...

quakergamer 0 Posted June 24, 2003 OK Here is a status update! If you can get any screenshots havocsquad of the cockpit it would help me a lot so please do it . Also about the moving engine nozzles I can put them but it would start shakin like the Flaps on the A10 ,etc. It wouldn't look that good so what should I do ?

I don't know about that but the F22 is mainly used for Air to air combat right ? AFAIK there is no Air to ground version yet ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jinef 2 Posted June 25, 2003 Lol, to think they started designing that in the middle of the cold war, 30 years ago, and they still haven't finished it yet, maybe they are waiting for a country to advance enough to develop something which could have almost 1% chance of beating it in A/A combat.

Eviscerator 0 Posted June 25, 2003 The F-22 is being changed to a multirole fighter i believe, its had its designation changed to F/A-22 to represent this, as Kilagee said. So yes, the F/A-22 is a ground attack variant, as well as AA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RaptorAce 0 Posted June 25, 2003 QG, you should make at least 1 AG variant, carrying 2 JDAMs or 4 HARMs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quakergamer 0 Posted June 25, 2003 QG, you should make at least 1 AG variant, carrying 2 JDAMs or 4 HARMs OK, it will be there. Now let's talk about the moving engine nozzle, I will only make the "top part" move up and down because you cannot set the max / min angle of this and it dosen't look good when the top part and the bottom part is animated :S. Until i find a solution it will be done like that! Thank you very much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sxep 0 Posted June 25, 2003 You meen it will act like a flap? i think that would work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quakergamer 0 Posted June 25, 2003 You meen it will act like a flap?i think that would work. Yes it would work BUT the problem is that a flap can go up AND down and that's not the case with the engine nozzles. The top one can go up and that's all and the bottom one can go down. ANd i can't set the max / min angle so there's no way  I can make it work correctly :S Ok here is what I've managed to do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
