Found a few nice line drawings. Hope these help with development if you didn't have them already. http://img100.photo.163.com/he3hai/11280457/249364552.jpg http://img100.photo.163.com/he3hai/11280457/249366834.jpg http://img100.photo.163.com/he3hai/11280457/249366187.jpg http://img100.photo.163.com/he3hai/11280457/249364740.jpg As well as this: http://photo.163.com/photos/he3hai/15887476/#p6 And: http://img195.photo.163.com/he3hai/23909148/605724781.jpg Edit: Also, does anyone else see the fuselage stations out of place or is this something wrong with my install?

Flew around with the new model tonight. Very nice improvements. Noticed the tail numbers are back now, thanks for that! Since you seem to be very knowledgeable about these sort of things now, do you know if it is possible to change the tail number colour? I'm not suggesting you do so for your mod, I'd just like to know for my personal use.

Grab the updated fuel tank model released by Tatti, it complements Walmis' F-15C perfectly. I also suggest you download Walmis' weapons pack. You can find these in the 3d models section of the forum. P.S. Thanks for the update Walmis!

Noticed today... I noticed that Tatti's fuel tank for the F-15C does not dissapear when entering cloud unlike the aircraft itself. Walmis, if you modelled your F-15C with the same material perhaps we could do away with this problem and finally have a way of penetrating IMC in close formation like we should be able to! Also noticed that the canopy is VERY bright at dusk/night time. Looks very out of place. I'll post some screenshots momentarily.

Ok, don't hate me for suggesting such a fine detail but... one thing that bothers me is looking back and seeing the razor thin edge of the intake ramp. I hope you can add 2 or 3 more poly's to this area to give it some depth. In the old model, and in your model as it stands, the unrealistically thin ramp makes me feel like I'm flying a paper plane.

Go hog wild with the poly's I say. Its easier to start with a high poly mode and scale it down later as an alternate release. If I'm going to be replacing models I want it to be worth it. I don't see the point in anyone wasting their time releasing a model that's only marginally improved. I think the 25T should set the lower limit of model quality.

Hey walmis, I uninstalled and reinstalled your mod using Modman and this time the outboard external tanks were in the right position. The centerline tank was still out of place however. Also noticed that the gear retraction animation is very slow, check out this video, they really come up quick! http://www.patricksaviation.com/videos/Guest/545/

Just noticed, a few antannae missing in the new model too. Sorry to be a PITA :P

Quick bug report... Notice the fuel tanks. Hope that helps. Edit: I agree that the nose looks somewhat droopy compared to some images I've seen where it appears so very subtly eg: Edit Edit: Or maybe not? Either way, you've done one hell of a job walmis!

Except that, as has been established on this very forum some time ago, the photos are fake. :megalol: Sorry, couldn't help myself, someone had to say it :P.

Congrats! Excellent job walmis. I'm truly amazed how dedicated you have been to this project. Don't be discouraged by all the details people are going to point out, with such an ambitious project there are bound to be things that go overlooked the first time around. Keep up the good work!

There are only two types of pilots, those who have never landed with gear up, and those who have. I pray to god every day that I don't join the second group. "Speed's good, gear down, latched... 3 green no red." :pilotfly:

Could you provide more details? I attempted this before but the software I used did not allow for a sufficiently large volume to be created. I have 2GB and it's frustrating to see the commit charge floating around 600 and still experiencing occasional stutters.

If a tree falls in a forest and hits a mime, does anybody care?

How about integrating the afterburner effect into the burner can animation?

Any news iViper? Unlike SuperKungFu, I'm not very patient at all :P.

Just imagine, an F-15C that looks as smokin' as the F/A-18. Drool.

Those look so damn sexy! Can't wait to install them! Any chance of doing a complete F-15C rebuild to match ;)?

looks great!

Yeah, lol. Sorry for contributing to the derailment of your thread mate. Good luck with the squad.

Definitely pre-911. 1998 back when I was part of an Air Cadet sqdn here (at the ripe young age of 13). First time being up close and personal with a real fighter was with a Langley F-15, although I'll admit, they didn't let us very close ;). Anyway, thanks to the experience I'm pretty much a fighter pilot now. I'm glad I don't have to go ahead and prove myself during years of service. I might go write the aptitude test for the RCAF just to seal the deal, who knows, if I do GrayGhost will probably give ME an IP slot! :P Edit: Rhen can you confirm that spelling and grammar are NOT on the ASVAB?

Yeah I can wait, already had a chance to play FSX at the Canadian Aviation Expo about a month back and I'd rather not pay into FilePlanet; there will be an open beta shortly behind you can be sure.

Umm... details please! I think it's safe to say I fall into that category. Anyway, I toured Langley once... so, uh, when do I get my wings?

Ribbon trails are planned for a future version, Vyrtuoz has confirmed this in another thread. :D

Yeah, we sunk that and about 12 other ships too :P.
