efA MoD basic

Update:

First test flying was great. We´re fixing now some little bugs.

But a question to the community. The new Airplanes Models are not in now. For this we need more time becouse its a lot of work. So its youre choice.

Do you want the efA Mod this Weekend but without nicer Models and the two secret planes. Or do you want to wait longer and have some new nicer Models and a Mod with a much better quality?

p.s were searching someone who can help us in make fc1 plane mods working in fc2. If you can do it and want to join the efA MoD Team or help us please write me a PM.

Kind Regards little-Dog

Hello Little-Dog,

My own personal opinion would be to conduct an initial release without the extra content. This will allow more thorough testing of the base-line mod and it will also create a version for people with lower end systems who would like to avoid the new models.

However, I am looking forward to the additional work.

Thanks for all of the work!

P.S. It might also be worth keeping in mind the possibility that some people will eventually want to produce derivatives of the mod with different aircraft in the two new slots (eg. Mig-29k)

little dog,

many thanks for the update. in my opinion it ist worth to wait and get the whole baby. :-)

so, it´s up to yours. i´m happy to know that the work is ongoing and also new 3d models are planned.

good luck!

best regards.

By the way, after some tests I found out that planes with F-15 cockpit can deliver Air-to-Ground ordnance, but with heavy limitations. From what I was able to do :

- Dumb bombs work, with CCIP, but all bombs are released at the same time, whatever their type (ex: Mk82 and Mk20 released at the same time)

- Rockets (non-guided) work, also with CCIP. Not sure if they are all released at the same time in salvo or not

I'd like to know, what would people rather have on US fighter/attack planes (F-16s, F/A-18s, F-4Es, etc...) : F-15 cockpit with limited A/G capability, or Russian cockpit (MiG-29G at best, with imperial units) with full A/G capability ?

Of course, it could depend on the specific plane

Mig cockpit :) I like it better than the 15's and the A2G capabilities would be cool. The 18's should use the Su33 for carrier purposes.

Actually, The F-15 cockpit works fine for carrier ops. The tail hook is 100% functional, and you even get the flight path marker and ILS cross on approach to the carrier.

As for the cockpit issue, I'm torn. I don't like the MiG cockpit because you loose the American TWS and TTA/TTI counter and all the other AA things that make the Eagle so great. At the same time, The AG on the Eagle is incredibly rudimentary, the bombs don't even ripple in pairs, they all fall off at once when you pickle.

Update:

The most things are done now =) We will have some last tests and then create the MoD for Mod Man. But it will take some more days. I´m too busy at the moment. During the next week you will become your efA MoD =)

Sry for that.

Kind Regards little-Dog

Can you not use a10 cockpit for A2G capability? I use it for the Harrier

A-10 cockpit is fine and will be used for dedicated Air-to-ground NATO planes. The question arises for fighter/attack planes

good point!
