Rafale Marine. :)

En route to Libya...

It progresses slowly...

Swedish and Austrian versions are quite different. It is not expected to release both. But I could work on skins...

I chose Saab 105 instead of Draken cause it's still in service... ;) Draken, maybe next...

You welcome. :) And very nice video indeed. :D After long hibernation, it is time now to go back to some new Saab projects...

Hmmm, weird... I'll have a look ASAP.

Sorry, I was very overbooked this last month. Then, I think release the file very soon... Cheers

But it is not actually a priority project.

Before end August, I should provide a such file with a very low-poly model. ;)

Sweet. :)

Hmmm... Sharing some tips is one thing, giving a full Max file is an other. Personally, I won't provide one of my file, they have some "value" and I will not appreciate find these to be sold on any 3D website. But, what can be done, it to create a basic plane, or a low detailed model with the basic animations needed in FC. Will think about it.

And it is released since some weeks... ;) http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=56264 Cheers

Are you joking ??? :huh:

I keep the surprise. :) But of course, it will be a Saab. It's true, I designed the main frames of this plane. But it's still a WIP project who should be released with an AdA Mod pack... or not...

I think is should be easier to copy the entire F-15 section from one db_countries file to another... Then, the Viggen PSD Templates are available now. http://www.lockonfiles.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownloaddetails&cid=274&lid=1840&title=Saab%20Viggen%20Templates#dldetails Cheers

Nice ! :) IMHO, a bit of anti-aliasing should be great... And check on-board numbers, HuAF Gripens wear #30 to #43 ! Cheers.

Backups, backups, backups ! The first rule of 3D modelling !

Thanks to all. But the story is not over. Other guests should come soon... ;)

Released ! Here it is ! The mod : http://www.lockonfiles.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownloaddetails&cid=268&lid=1838&title=FC2%20Gripen%20&%20Friends%20Mod#dldetails The high resolution skin pack : http://www.lockonfiles.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownloaddetails&cid=275&lid=1837&title=FC2%20Gripen%20&%20Friends%20High%20Res%20Skins%20Pack#dldetails Installation ---------------------------------- Install with Modman 7 or higher. Features ---------------------------------- This mod presents Saab planes Gripen, Viggen and S340 in these flyable versions : -> JAS-39C & D on same F-16A slot. Versions are chosen by selecting dedicated skins in the mission editor. -> JA-37D (fighter), AJS-37 (attack) and SF-37 (reco) Viggen planes on three dedicated slots based on Mirage 2000 flight model. Each version has its own payloads and skins. The three version are directly available in the mission editor. -> Saab 340 with civilian and AEW&C (S100B) versions in E-2C slot. Gripen Upgrades From V1 ---------------------------------- -> The plane can now use BOTH undercarriage and airbrakes. -> Only one contrail ! -> AIM-120s are worn under their dedicated LAU-127 rack. -> MiG-29s available with their genuine features. -> Three nations added : Sweden, Hungary and Czech Republic. Bugs and Limitations ---------------------------------- -> Saab 340s are flyable but AWACS abilities are only available with AIs. -> A little Viggen bug with mission editor : once you open a mission with Viggens, they all are marked as "AJS-37" even if they are JA-37 or SF-37. Don't care about this, if no changes are recorded, the mission keeps correct. -> Rearming on parking is able with Gripens, but AIM-120s can't be reloaded actually. Countries and On-Board Numbers ---------------------------------- Thaï and South-African Gripens are available with Sweden country. The operator countries use these on-board numbers : Sweden 39C : 200 and more Sweden 39D : 800 and more Hungary 39C : 30 to 41 Hungary 39D : 42 & 43 Czech 39C : 234 to 245 Czech 39D : 819 & 820 SAAF 39C : 11 and over SAAF 39D : 01 to 09 Thaï 39D : 01 and over Weapons ---------------------------------- Some weapons needed to be modelled and replace some actual LO stock weapons. They are : -> RBS-15 anti-ship missile. It replaces Kh-29T. -> Gripen dropable fuel tank replaces F-16-N2's. -> Viggen dropable fuel tank replaces S-3's. -> Litening GIII FLIR pod replaces LANTIRN F-16. -> KB pod replaces BOZ. -> U22/U95 jammer pods replace Sky Shadow. -> M70 rocket pod replaces OH-58D Gorgona. -> AIM-9s uses LAU-7 launchers. -> SmokeWinder pod replaces both AIMS-9S and R-73U. -> KAB-500T is used to simulate GBU-16 -> KAB-1500 to simulate GBU-10. Others elements ---------------------------------- -> Dedicated SwAF C-130 skin. -> MiG-29 HuAF "Dongo" skin. -> C-17 HuAF skin. Anti-Ship Strike ---------------------------------- RBS-15 anti-ship missile is simulated by Kh-29T to destroy ships, including moving ones. You can operate like this : -> Go to GND mod (7) -> Select Kh-29T weapon (D) -> Switch on TV (O) -> Lock missile once (Enter) -> Look for target on TV. Once centered, zoom in and lock again. -> Wait for launch authorization... :) Viggen "Reverse" ---------------------------------- To simulate Viggen's reverse (not effective, but reverse elements are animated), check this : -> Gear out. -> Airbrakes out. -> Break hard to compress nose gear. It will make the reverse's nozzle to close/ Network Warning ---------------------------------- The file check system may cause the mod not working on some public servers. Note to skinners ---------------------------------- Extra slots for Gripen and Viggen skins are available. They need to bo activated by editing the \Scripts\Database\db_countries.lua file. Don't forget to edit mirage2000.skins and f-16a.skins files if necessary.
