F/A-18C mod for the Su-33 in FC 1.12a is in progress !

[Majesco]

Anybody need an F/A-18C mod for the Su-33 in FC 1.12a ?

Now I know how to bring the F/A-18C’s arrestor hook down and the mod’s now in progress, I used all Mitch Janssen’s F-18 skin pack to make its skin more realistic so the filesize is quite big.

You guys now can do air refuelling, landing on the USS Carl Vinson with this F-18C mod.

 

Now you can see weapon position under pylons are corrected and I need more time to fix/add some things more.

But there’re some things I can’t fix:

_ F/A-18C afterburner looks not correct

_ Position of weapons at the top op the wings cannot fix when the wing folded

_ Shadow of F-18C on the carrier

 

 

And I need some helps from forum members:

@ Leonski: Could you help me to make a new start screen for the FA-18 (replace start-su33.dds with a new one) ? You can choose a photo: F-18’s landing on any US carrier, photosize must compatible the resolution of 1024x768 or 1280x1024 (is he here ???)

 

@All: how to change the photo of SU-33 of the main-screen.dds into a photo of F-18 landing on the carrier ? Can anybody help me ?

 

Thank in advance !

Here’re some first screenshots of my FA-18C mod for the Su-33 which compatible FC 1.12a

Let’s have a look

 

 

 

But you’ll see bugs of weapon position under pylons with the Su-33 in old missions before, like this:

Its been donne before AFAIK, furthermore in 1.2 Black shark every AI plane will have its own flight model like the fliable planes.

Cant someone make a f-18 without pylons? A whole new f-18 from the 3d model program.

Yes, but it would take some effort to make a new 3d model, as you can't modify the vanilla ones, we should have all flyables without launch rails, so we can have proper aerobatic routines, FM tweaks are a bit too much, but a different appearance is fine with me.
