Ells228 Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Hey guys, I thought I'd treat you to a sneak peak of our Alpha Test model #3. Testing is going well and progress is ramping up at a great pace with many thanks to our development and alpha testing teams. We are still recruiting alpha testers and will soon be looking for beta testers to test flight model and A2A capabilities. Check out www.veao.eu for more information. 1
Aeroscout Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Very Nice! Great to see a Eurofighter of such great detail! I'll be watching this one. DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices
Vekkinho Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Nice looking EF2K! Finally we get to see some Modern fighters in LOMAC! I'll check your site and apply for Beta testing if that's cool with You! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Majesco Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Very nice... cant wait dude.. "can't wait" is a very popular phrase in "3D models" box on Lockon forum :megalol:
Ells228 Posted March 12, 2009 Author Posted March 12, 2009 lol, yeah I know what you mean but there is a great team working on it and we have a deadline for a 'public' appearance at a UK air show event, so it will be done. Any testers are welcome to register and help out. Thanks for your comments guys.
rattler Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 gees,very very nice model. Lockon is looking better all the time. Thanks to you and your group for a very nice addition to this sim. Most appreciated.:thumbup: New F15E, J39, EF2K, man can't get better than that along with the su27 and mig.:)
Boberro Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Can't wait for it! :D Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make... HISTORY! :D | Also to be remembered: FRENCH TANKS HAVE ONE GEAR FORWARD AND FIVE BACKWARD :D ಠ_ಠ ツ
Ells228 Posted March 22, 2009 Author Posted March 22, 2009 We are in the last stages of Alpha testing and the model will be skinned soon, so check back for new screenshots coming soon. Animation of control surfaces is next whilst skinning is taking place, so we will be recruiting for Beta testers soon. Note: Current Alpha testers will automatically be upgraded to Beta testers. Thanks, Ells.
Ells228 Posted April 14, 2009 Author Posted April 14, 2009 Latest update for you guys. Model is now complete and unwrapped with some skinning elements underway. Public beta test will commence early May with details being posted soon. For anyone visiting the Waddington UK airshow, you will be able to see the live public release of the Typhoon for LockOn (more details to follow also). Thanks to Crow for an awesome job!!
czarnyolek Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 I've checked website and it looks as very ambitious plan. Im so eager on it. Please consider aggresor sqadron as well. Im sure plenty of people would be interested in your idea but would chose opposite side. Would be great to intercept tornados with mig-21 Beczl is cooking up :)
Ells228 Posted April 15, 2009 Author Posted April 15, 2009 Hey Czarnyolek, Many thanks for your comments. I am indeed interested in the aggressor flights for the future and will keep an eye out. Thanks, Ells.
borchi_2b Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 hi there, i have seen this threat the first time now :-) looks nice so far. just one thing i could see. the nose is too small. you might want to check your blueprints again and your model. if you want to have great success with this model, i recommend to change it. soryy for the critics, but i just try to help greets boom boom http://www.polychop-sims.com
Ells228 Posted April 18, 2009 Author Posted April 18, 2009 Any comments are always welcome Borchi and we will look into it. I'm very confident the model is as exact as we can get it as a lot of research and testing has been completed on the model, but I will ask the team to double check. Thanks, Ells.
topol-m Posted April 19, 2009 Posted April 19, 2009 I`m asking the same question on every new model thread: will the cockpit be modeled too or the mod will use some of the existing cockpits in the game? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Ells228 Posted April 19, 2009 Author Posted April 19, 2009 For LockOn it will be the F15 but for DCS we will have a Typhoon cockpit.
Sawamura Posted April 19, 2009 Posted April 19, 2009 Sounds very good, Ells. Im looking forward to this project. :)

Ells228 Posted April 19, 2009 Author Posted April 19, 2009 Thanks for your comments guys. Part of VEAO is the Air Combat Training School (ACTS) and we will be recruiting instructor pilots soon, so watch this space.
Ells228 Posted April 19, 2009 Author Posted April 19, 2009 Topol, We have a basic 3d model of the cockpit for LOFC, as you can see from the shots above, but this will be fully developed for DCS.
topol-m Posted April 19, 2009 Posted April 19, 2009 For LockOn it will be the F15 but for DCS we will have a Typhoon cockpit. Oh man, thats great. Hope we don`t have to wait 2 years + for it. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Ells228 Posted April 19, 2009 Author Posted April 19, 2009 Well the basics of the cockpit are there, it's just a case of tweaking the 3d model to add more details which is fairly simple. The hard part is all of the coding and integration for DCS as well as getting the right level of details for the actual Typhoon. I wouldn't say 2 years, but can't say an actual date yet.
