European Air War - The Gen

Yep, lots of rockets. In fact, on some of the models I've seen weapons HP's on the interplane struts so the original model makers anticipated this.

We already have a number of small bombs in the 1.6 universal weapons package so that shouldn't be an issue.

BTW, I have no problem if you want to fiddle around with the FM's yourself. What would need adjusting to begin with would be be: 1 - gun positions and type 2 - top speed 3 - max altitude 4 - damage 5 - range 6 - bomb loads, if applicable Later on things like turn rate, engine torque, propeller rotat...

Sure, post away. Maybe we can pull a few curious members over here where I'm not banned. The problem I find with the FM's is that some of them cause CTD's. I think they were written before we upgraded some of the flight parameters in 1.6. I'm just going to start with known good FM's from some of the...

Yeah, sorry, After all the R/S bodging I've had to do my hand was a little shaky so I must have hit the mouse button a few extra times. :P :D :mrgreen: Actually, the German planes are going faster than the Allied planes. I took a different approach. The big problem is getting the undercarriage to re...

Haven't thought that far ahead.

However, since I have a lifetime ban at SimHQ I was hoping you could really hype it for me.

I haven't done much with the FM's yet. I tried a couple of FM's that came with some of the models but most cause immediate CTD's when trying to play or else the numbers are far off. For example, I has the thrilling experiences of a 280 MPH Sopwith Camel......unfortunately the modder has also edited ...

Welp, the Allied planes are done.

Just a quick update: The Nieuport 11,12, 17 and 28 are compete. The Sopwith Pup, Camel, Dolphin and 1 1/2 Strutter are complete. The RE-8 is done. The DH-2 is done. The Se5a is done. The Morane N and the Breguet 14 are driving me crazy. I think I'm going to have to convert them to my "empty F&q...

Yea, it is a lot of trouble. However, once I get a handle on fixing a model, it's fairly straightforward applying the same fixes to other models by the same builder. For instance, the Nieuport 11/12/17 model and the Nieuport 24/27/27 models are about 80-90% the same because they come from the same m...

I haven't looked at the FM's but from my experience with some of the pre-WW 2 biplanes I'm pretty sure I can make them work.

What I left out of my post was the fact that even with my attention to detail, these models aren't perfect. Due to their extreme complexity (as far as 3dz modeling goes), I can only get about 95% R/S compliance, with the few remaining issues only being detectable from oblique angles. I'm fine with t...

I just wanted to give an update on the project. I started with the Nieuport model which can be used for everything from the 11, 12, 16 and 17. Now, I'm not trying to be critical here. I do think these are well done in the sense that the proportions are good except for the landing gear being too wide...

Thanks for the "what if" information. You're new to the forum so you probably don't know the "what-if" aircraft are my specialty. When you get a chance, take a look at the models in the "ALT" folder of the 1.6 package. In there you will find hundreds of interesting odd ...

That helps, thanks.
