SR71 Blackbird Project

[erol_da_boss]

where in MEinit. and will it actually effect the plane speed on game?

 

not all. i have tried it before

[borchi_2b]

ok guys,

 

i have done some research and talked to some diffrent people.

all came up independent form each other with the facts, that at the moment, all ai planes that are made flyable have the flightcharacteristics of the su27 or 33.

they assume that it will be diffrent with black shark, bur i guess for bs we have to wait

 

therefor i will try to replace it with some ugly old plane that is not very often used in fc

 

i hope the meinit datas that could be changed will have an effect.

does anybody know?

It won't change the flight characteristics at all, only some the max weight, altitude, speed, but do not expect any serious change.

 

Don not wait 'till BS comes out. It'll take some time I think my life will be end up in a trash, as it'll be finished.

 

So make it FC compatible, please.

 

Kepp up the good work, Borchi.

Because almost all of the models out there are published. You can only do certain things with them. It a form of plagerizing that is illegal by internation law AFAIK. Since many are not free, when you pay for it, you can do what you want with it, but you are not allowed to distribute it. That would defeat the purpose of paying!

 

 

So this way he can make his model and choose to not license it, giving us the ability to use it too!

 

While you may be right, I would find it very, VERY hard to believe that there aren't several (free for commercial use) models available. Moreoever, they've probably been available for 10 years.

[SuperKungFu]

The ones that are usually free for commerical use either don't have enough poly for a good model, or it has way too much poly for lock on. Also, there may be issues with innaccurate shapes...etc. So i guess that's why most people would want to make their own to avoid all the potential troubles.

Well you have to prove me wrong then, cause I can't find any free ones...

[borchi_2b]

ok guys,

you got me wrong.

 

i meant that we would have to wait until black shark till we can use the thrust of the mig31.

i did not say that i want to wait to finish to model until black shark is out.

 

this week i had to stop with the 3d work because some work killed my timetable, but next week i will get back to it i promise.

 

so check the threat, every day something new can be updated :-)

 

check your six and stay tuned

 

borchi

[nesher]

Belive me, we are tuned enough!:);)

 

If you have some time, please upload some shots of the SR-71 project, to see how far you are.

 

Thx i. a. Borchi.

[borchi_2b]

 

well folks, i did not get far this week,

all project were put to a hold, bvut only for this week, because i am working on animations for a homepage of my best friend, a DJ and musicproducer.

next week, so far my timetables allows it, but it looks good, i will get back to the blackbird and the a-10 fueltank.

 

first i will start to work on the troubles of the a-10 fueltank, which i want to get done finaly.

 

hope you understand that.

sorry

 

greetings, borchi

 

p.s.: for all, the blackbird will be released before blackshark comes on the market, i hope at least :-)

or they are way quicker then i think, but i hope they are.

I'm looking for the same info.

 

I want the B52, TU95 and stuff flying by altering the weight etc.

 

So any good thought would be very much respected!!!

 

I also have the same problem of not getting any info except that people are NOT recommending to change the MEINIT.

 

I'll keep my ears open en you posted, okay?

 

Keep up the good work on the SKUNK WORKS!!!

 

Peace Dr.T

The weight doesn't matter much, what counts if the payload capibility, you can have a plane that has an empty weight of 1 kg and a max take off weight of 100000, the game somehow takes that range (1-100000 kg) and uses it for the FM handling characteristics. So decreasing weight won't work, you also need to reduce the max payload weight, and fuel load. In fact, the fuel load is the problem, as the minimum is 20%, so you need a total fuel weight of no more than 9400 kg, or something like that. But not 40000 kg, as it will make the plane unflyable.

Best way to do it is experiment with weights and see what works best. Just watsch out that you don't load up more fuel than the maximum weight of the plane, then lomac will crash.

Your project looks always better and better.

You did a beautiful job so far. Thank you for it.

:thumbsup:

[borchi_2b]

thanks for the compliment,

 

i will trys to keep up that good work,

i guess that at the end of next week i will get back to my projects.

my timetable is limited in the next days, but how i promised i will get back to it as soon as possible.

 

i hope that my modeling skills satisfy you guys :-)

 

 

[-akyla-]

that looks soo pretty :wub:

[Yeniceri]

Thats a nice job borchi..

keep it up bro..

[borchi_2b]

thanks,

i will promised

[rogue_blade]

so which fm is it based on? and how fast can it go?

[Yeniceri]

so which fm is it based on? and how fast can it go?

 

if there is a way to alter speed..

I will surely like to know..

that f-35 has supercruise ability in real life..It can hit Mach 1 without AB's on..

[borchi_2b]

first the model has to be done.

well then i assume alot of testing with the fm, because it will unfortunaly to fc, have the flightcharacteristics of the su27k also known as su33.

 

will see, i hope that it will reach up to 80000 feet and makes mach 3.0+ like the real one, but i guess that we have to manipulate alot on the weight and many other things

 

just give me time to finish the model and the animations. oplease be paitient, i also need to be, because i need at some parts help from tomcatz who is right now absent.

 

greetings borchi

[SuperKungFu]

also a helpful little reminder, please back up your files. In the past, a lot of modelers lost their project due to computer troubles. So it wouldn't hurt to copy the file out onto another HD or flash drive.

[borchi_2b]

yes thanks,

should not forget about that.

i will put it onto an saving card tomorrow.

 

:-)

 

[sp0nge]

Bump.

 

Still being worked?

[borchi_2b]

jup i am still working on it.

 

right now i am working on the ejectionseat and cockpit.

well time is the only thing that sometimes makes trouble, cause my university takes alot of it.

 

well i talked to yeniceri, and he is a very helping hand.

 

okay, i have no further pictures right now, cause the progress is not so far that i think pictures are worth it yet.

 

lets wait untill the end of next week. ok?

i have holidays and time now :-)

[grandsurf]

I put mine asks sometimes here :). Count Drawarguments to animating new Fly Models also for the AI Models? I mean, can we animate new AI-model fully with the Drawarguments?

[borchi_2b]

hey steffen ,

i don´t know,

 

maybe you ask somebody from the ed testers, cause my blackbird will be flyable so i did not concearn with that.

 

but i would be intersted if we would have to do the argumentation for ai aircrafts.

 

greetings sven
