I believe they will get their thread when they will be close to release A-7 in EA.

You may have noticed also other 3rd party developers do not have all of their non-released modules in their threads.

Also for example OctopusG got official thread when they were close to EA, if i remember correctly.

Are you from FlyingIron sim?

 

So the 3d model is already textured?

 

I would honestly hope they are actually pretty far along if they expect to release it this year. Especially on the systems, FM, and weapons modeling, thats the stuff that takes the bulk of the time and "talent" to develop. There are countless modders here that can make a nice looking external model, and even a cockpit. I'm just hoping these guys aren't the next razbam, nice graphics, but poor/slow systems modeling.

New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog. TrackIR, HP Reverb (formermly CV1)

Old-N-busted: i7 4720HQ ~3.5GHZ, +32GB DDR3 + Nvidia GTX980m (4GB VRAM) :joystick: TM Warthog. TrackIR, Rift CV1 (yes really).

That is correct, and it would have been great if it had of worked but it was a technology in its infancy at the time.

 

 

This USED to be true but during the JSF tender Boeing absorbed McDonnell Douglas thereby becoming one of the most experienced manufacturers of combat aircraft. To this day it manufactures the F-15 and F-18.

The AH-64E (Apache/Guardian) is also a Boeing product.

Hi, I was wondering when FlyingIron Simulations would get a Licensed Third Party Projects page?

 

Others have been wondering, too.

What do you suppose that they were referring to when they said that the papers were signed and the ink was dry?

 

I'd say they meant their contract with ED about the A-7E is signed and safe.

In preparing of the A-7 are there any videos or info sheets how to do deep strike missions and air to ground attacks on enemy bases with infrated-guided missile defence? I want start to train such procedures with the F14.

Jeeeeze! I sure hope this wasn't just a flash in the pan. It would be such a bummer to see these guys go down the toilet like so many other wannabe 3rd party developers. :mad:

 

 

The A-7 is such an awesome plane and would be such a wonderful addition to the DCS World.

Hi Razor,

 

Development is still in it's early stages, and we are currently working on basic system & FM coding. Unfortunately, this isn't the most interesting thing to talk about, hence the lack of updates on our part.

 

Once we get over this hurdle and I get back to working on the A-7 art full-time, we will have more regular updates to share.

 

Cheers,

Alex

Thanks for the reply Donny. I believe you'll find that there are many folks in here that are very hungry for any snipit of info from you guys, whether it is a pretty WIP picture or just a comment on what system you are coding at the moment. Nothing about the development of this module is uninteresting to those of us that are anxiously awaiting it's arrival! :thumbup:
