Jagohu Posted November 27, 2020 Posted November 27, 2020 When placing F-14s on the carrier as static objects, the Mission Editor shows them with spread wings - unlike any other static carrier-aircraft. It'd be nice (and easier to place them next to each other) if they could be displayed in ME with the swept wing, the same as they appear in-game on the deck. Cheers 1
Uxi Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 ED has to do it as part of Supercarrier. Even their non HB F-14A (low res) would do the same thing in the mission editor. Seconded, though.

AG-51_Razor Posted November 29, 2020 Posted November 29, 2020 ED has to do it as part of Supercarrier. Even their non HB F-14A (low res) would do the same thing in the mission editor. Seconded, though. Along with chocks and chains. Maybe I misunderstood you Uxi, but the ED F-14A does do exactly what Jagohu is asking for. As a matter of fact - I think - The HB F-14B used to this when it first came out, that is, its wings would fold back as soon as you linked it to the carrier when placing it on the deck as a static object. It would be nice if "they" could get it back to doing that again. :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Jagohu Posted January 7, 2021 Author Posted January 7, 2021 One more addition to the F-14 on the spawn topic: when spawned "UNCONTROLLED" it spawns with swept wings. However, upon Activation, the wings suddenly go to 16 degrees, and then come back to fully swept position, which is both unrealistic and it might damage other airplanes around.

The HB Tomcat wings won't sweep when placing on the free Stennis either, and never have since Tomcat release.
Uxi Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 Yeah it's an issue in the core game, not supercarrier. Before supercarrier, IIRC there wasn't even had a carrier outline though so it was pretty rough trying to place anything.

Razor5-1 Posted January 11, 2021 Posted January 11, 2021 I would love to see this as a feature and I hope it can be implemented! It's a small thing, but such a great user feature
Xeno426 Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 Honestly, it would be nice to be able to choose if the wings are folded or spread, kind of like the cargo ramp for the static C-5 in the Military Aircraft Mod.
LanceCriminal86 Posted January 16, 2021 Posted January 16, 2021 I'd love a static like this too, maybe with reduced polys and just using the LOD texture file: 1 Heatblur Rivet Counting Squad™ VF-11 and VF-31 1988 [WIP] VF-201 & VF-202 [WIP]
Southernbear Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 (edited) I originally thought you meant when the mission loaded, if you mean within the editor itself that would be nice Edited January 18, 2021 by Southernbear
mwlue Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) ** I'm not on the latest beta release yet (23 Dec, I think) ** As I remember, you have to link your HB cats to the carrier you are placing on, the wings will be swept then (it will still show as un-swept in ME, but will be swept when the mission is loaded). It works on both stock & supercarrier. Edited January 19, 2021 by mwlue
