Spino Posted February 8, 2023 Author Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) The F-15CX is also progressing nicely. Cockpit for both "X" variants is still a long way off, but at least the aircraft themselves are implemented. I have implemented the same pylon configuration for the F-15CX that you currently find on the F-15EX, with the possibility to carry 20 air-to-air missiles with AMBER racks, and 12 without.

Spino Posted February 8, 2023 Author Posted February 8, 2023 Meanwhile, for the F-15EX, AIM-9X Block II+ and AIM-120D implementation is next. I hope to release both with version 1.7, along with the AGM-88G. I have added the Python 5 and I-Derby to the F-15C(U), but you will have to have the JAS-39 Gripen mod installed for them to be available. 3 Website (DCS Content): https://sites.google.com/view/spinossimulationsite/home?authuser=0 Discord: discord.gg/V6W8gJSx83 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SpinosSimulations?sub_confirmation=1 System Specs: Ryzen 7 5800X, RX 7800 XT, 32GB DDR4-3200 RAM DCS Wishlist: F-8E/J Crusader, UH-1Y/AH-1Z, F-14B(U), F-14D/ST-21 Super Tomcat
SilentSparrow Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Question: Could you make a MiG-29SMT for DCS World? I would love you to make one and simulate accurately modern air combat.

Spino Posted February 12, 2023 Author Posted February 12, 2023 Sort of, it's a MiG-29 with a US paintjob and US missiles slapped onto it. 1 Website (DCS Content): https://sites.google.com/view/spinossimulationsite/home?authuser=0 Discord: discord.gg/V6W8gJSx83 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SpinosSimulations?sub_confirmation=1 System Specs: Ryzen 7 5800X, RX 7800 XT, 32GB DDR4-3200 RAM DCS Wishlist: F-8E/J Crusader, UH-1Y/AH-1Z, F-14B(U), F-14D/ST-21 Super Tomcat
EA-18G_BlockII Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 The F-14A's nozzle/feather is almost identical to F-15EX's one so i think you can kitbash it into your mod @Spino
Spino Posted February 12, 2023 Author Posted February 12, 2023 (edited) It's not, F-14B nozzle is. Top is an F-14A, bottom is F-14D, but the D and the B have the same engine. I can't kitbash engine nozzles, only things that don't require animations to work.

Spino Posted February 17, 2023 Author Posted February 17, 2023 I will also be re-working the AMBER rack model to be more accurate.

SilentSparrow Posted February 18, 2023 Posted February 18, 2023 Have you asked GR for his AIM-260 and/or AARGM-ER yet?
ghostmike Posted February 18, 2023 Posted February 18, 2023 Ein großes Danke für Deine Arbeit, neben den MODs von @Currenthill, ist die EX mein augenblicklicher Lieblingsmod. Zumal sie als eine der wenigen Flugzeuge die Durandal laden kann. A big thanks for your work, besides @Currenthill's MODs, the EX is my current favorite mod. Especially since it is one of the few aircraft that can load the Durandal.

Cap is okay with me using their AIM-260 model, but I would have to build the code myself again to have it working before the GR mods are released to the public. I won't be asking for his AARGM-ER because all GR air to ground missiles only work for AI aircraft, my ARMs work for player aircraft too. So I'll be using my own model for the AIM-260 for now. I'm not very happy with the fat fins on the GR model anyway. 1 Website (DCS Content): https://sites.google.com/view/spinossimulationsite/home?authuser=0 Discord: discord.gg/V6W8gJSx83 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SpinosSimulations?sub_confirmation=1 System Specs: Ryzen 7 5800X, RX 7800 XT, 32GB DDR4-3200 RAM DCS Wishlist: F-8E/J Crusader, UH-1Y/AH-1Z, F-14B(U), F-14D/ST-21 Super Tomcat

Spino Posted February 19, 2023 Author Posted February 19, 2023 Mine isn't finished yet. Right now it is just the AGM-88F with a different model and mass, no other code has been changed thus far. The workaround to make it work with the F-15 avionics is a bit convoluted, so it's taking longer to get right. I am also having issues with AIM-120D implementation. They work so far if ejected from an AMBER rack, but the minute they are rail launched, they explode and destroy the launch aircraft! Still looking for a fix for that before I move back over to the AARGM-ER.

EvilDuckDad Posted February 20, 2023 Posted February 20, 2023 I feel your pain. I have spent many hours trying to get missiles to work correctly on pylons/rails/rails on pylons etc. Drop fire configured pylons don't seam to like rail launched missiles. I really like your work-around for firing AGM missiles off A2A configured VSN based planes. It solved a problem I had been racking my brain over for a while...
Spino Posted February 20, 2023 Author Posted February 20, 2023 AIM-120D and D-2 have been partially implemented, but I am still trying to find a solution for the premature warhead detonation issue that occurs when these missiles are fired from rails. The AMBER racks work fine, oddly enough. 3 Website (DCS Content): https://sites.google.com/view/spinossimulationsite/home?authuser=0 Discord: discord.gg/V6W8gJSx83 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SpinosSimulations?sub_confirmation=1 System Specs: Ryzen 7 5800X, RX 7800 XT, 32GB DDR4-3200 RAM DCS Wishlist: F-8E/J Crusader, UH-1Y/AH-1Z, F-14B(U), F-14D/ST-21 Super Tomcat
Spino Posted February 20, 2023 Author Posted February 20, 2023 New engine data, more accurately represents the GE-129 engine that the real F-15EX uses. Also swapped out afterburner effects, so now it uses the same one as the F-16 (which also has the GE-129 engine). Now, if only we had the nozzle petals to go with it! 2 Website (DCS Content): https://sites.google.com/view/spinossimulationsite/home?authuser=0 Discord: discord.gg/V6W8gJSx83 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SpinosSimulations?sub_confirmation=1 System Specs: Ryzen 7 5800X, RX 7800 XT, 32GB DDR4-3200 RAM DCS Wishlist: F-8E/J Crusader, UH-1Y/AH-1Z, F-14B(U), F-14D/ST-21 Super Tomcat
Spino Posted February 21, 2023 Author Posted February 21, 2023 AIM-9X BLK II+ is going well though.
