Mizzy

Aplologies lads and lasses, I probably have made too much of an issue of my non combat interest in simulated flying! I have no issue with people enjoying their flight simulations in whatever concept they like to play them. Who am I to criticise anyone ;) I believe that ED has created the best flight sims ever, that is just my opinion. It just happens to be military orientated and that is also where my interest is. No big deal surely how we all appreciate individually a wonderful product of flight simulation. Yes I have tried Xplane but it is not as good as flying the Su25 or A10 that ED have produced and also the environments that ED create in their maps are just second to nobody. OT: I remember flying Flanker many years back and thinking, wow I like this! It's a shame that many of the old ED team are long gone now, but as a Company their values have remained the same. We should be very proud of ED/TFC to stay with us and believe there still is a market for what they specialise in, so small as it is. I am surprised they (ED) are still willing to produce such high demanding flight (combat) simulations for such a small audience although I understand that their talents benefit military markets as well. Short end to this monologue, thank you Igor/team and TFC, may your future visions prosper. A grateful Mizzy

Don't be an arse, it's the concept of fighting that I am against :angry:

Hello there Musty :) I had no time to spare the team so I had to tell Matt to remove me as it was wasting EDs time having me as a passenger! Well, for the other posts, I did say it was a waste of time asking but I could not help but to ask ;) I have FSX 2004, Falcon 4, SF, Flaming Cliff 1and 2 Lock on 1.02, Flanker 1.5 and Flanker 2, Black Shark, Janes USAF, Janes F18, IL2 (all of them) and WOE. Oh I also have EAW and EDs A10. Eh hem...now then....all I do with them all is just fly around not because I can't work out how to fight (although the ED simulations are hard for me as with Falcon 4) it is against my beliefs to kill anyone either in reality or in cyber space. I just have a facination for aircraft and in particular military aircraft. I have done mods or artwork for most simulations out there and incidently FSX doesn't come close to EDs flight simulation, nor does Falcon 4 so that is why I play EDs simulations when I get time, which is'nt much these days. Greetings to you all. Mizzy

I know, I am probably the only one who does not fight in EDs simulations but use it as a wonderful flight simulator......anyway is it at all possible to have another flyable aircraft in the final release like the L-39 or the Su25? I can't fly the Black Shark helecopter, its too hard and the A10 is nice but I will miss another aircraft to fly in the new ED direction of one aircraft per module and the timescales. I am getting old and impatient ;) Anyway, it's just a waste of post space I am sure but I still had to ask. Mizzy

Yes that looks ready, can you release it now please so I can have a go :) Mizzy

Looking forward to some voices while I fly around doing nothing :) Mizzy

lol

Very nice Shag ;) Mizzy

Riccy The only update to give the community now is when you release it I think! ;) Mizzy P.S. A matter of observation, do you mind sharing the names of the 'lucky three' beta testers? Are they people the community know?

Brum All you have to do is right click your mouse over the attached image and save it somewhere. Then put the saved image in your temp textures folder. The image is only 8/256 colour but I reduced the size using 'Bright' so you can't tell the difference from the original colour depth (24/16). I think LO converts the image to the resolution of the game but not sure. It works anyway ;) Mizzy

Here it is Just drop it in your Temp textures folder. Mizzy

Ok Il make it available Warning, it does look very old and beaten up so any sensitive Mig 25 lovers beware, it may upset you !! Moving on to other artwork now. Mizzy P.S. thanks for the alcohol offers but I only drink white wine and lager and lime (in halfs btw) ;)

There was a great variety of Mig 25 camos around the worlds airforce that used Mig 25s. Mine is based on this little chap attached. I have aready done schemes that are soviet military standard. This one is quite a sad scheme of a old (but never beaten and noble) Mig 25, the 'watcher of the skys' as my Grandfather used to say :) A great aircraft, wish we did have a new model of it in Lock on. Maybe in the future, who knows! Mizzy

This one was done a while ago but never released it so here is a screen of it in action. If there is enough interest I shall make it available. Mizzy

Hi Tom is it possible to let us have a file with just the changes to the XML file so that we can manually make the changes so it's compatable with other mods? Many thanks for a great model of a great flying machine. Mizzy

Yes he may well have more important things going on in his/her life. I am sure the mod will be released one day. Mizzy

I think the drama queen wishes to drag out the drama LOL :) Mizzy

Well Ric...;) Please release something rather than continuing to be a drama Queen about your release lol. If you have anything finished, let us have a look. Promise we don't mind if it's not up to your perfect standards and having the right font for the left gear up so to speak. Kind regards Mizzy P.S. Sorry if this sounds rude but I see no reason why you cannot release at least ONE cockpit of you artwork.

Why don't you release a finished one Ric ;) It is not essential that all your cockpit work has to be completed all at once. Also you can use a single release as an open beta test to make sure your mod is compatible with the various machines we all have !!!!! :) Just a thought. Mizzy

This is the one model I really want to see in LO, along with a F5 ;) So I want to keep it in the limelight and appreciate Tom for what he has done, along with our old friend and mine from the USAF days Mitch! ;) Mizzy

bump

By the time it comes out you will be on to another computer or maybe even another after that. This is well into the future development plans ;) Mizzy

Thank you Tommy Mizzy

You will find VERY VERY few female combat flight simers, it is not an issue I would worry about personally ;) You will find many more females in the FSX community. We have a local club for FX hear where I live and about 20% are females none of which ever play combat flight sims! It's not something a woman would want to do. I may be wrong but I doubt it!! Mizzy

Please say you will release it soon :) Mizzy
