New model, new textures. A HAF (337 Mira) F-16 block 52 with conformal fuel tanks (CFT).
-
One complete aircraft will contain 50 Mb of model and 90 Mb of texture data!
I think you mean 19Mb of texture per model, Mathijs

Yep, you're right Dag. And yesterday not at the beach but at Spangdahlem openhouse taking pics of some different birds.If you guys did some browsing yourself through this topic and the forum you would have found some pics of the Thunderbird. The have been posted before, even at the beginning of this topic by Dag:

Aerosoft, i challenge you to prove me wrong.
No worries, we will.
-
To the painters (maybe already mentioned);
On most of the screenshots of the Dutch F-16's the roundels are WRONG.
Clockwise starting at twelve o'clock it's red-white-blue and the orange dot in the middle.
The latest screenshot of the demo F-16 J-055 has the correct roundel.
Greetings from the Netherlands;
Gert
Yes, I noticed that myself some time back. All is adjusted now and will be correct in the final release.
-
Great shots Vigilius, nice way of showing the F-16. I like those clouds, what cloud textures did you use for that?
-
Hey Tim, you old fart
Congratulations! Sorry I'm a bit late, I was at Fairford yesterday all day and back home late last night. Sorry I couldn't get you the crack and hooker you wanted me to order for your birthday, customs didn't allow it 
I hope you had a nice day nevertheless.Dag, that's one nice Egyptian paint. So you found some good reference pics after all?
-
A, B and C...
-
Thanks, I'm glad with the result myself. For these pics I used the Canon EF 100-400L lens, big and heavy. I don't own one yet, this one was rented. But I might buy one now
I'm not sure what happened to the F-18's CC, that they didn't tell us. But I bet he had to buy one case or two
That NH-90 is a nice looking chopper, from all kind of angles. Too bad for Sola that you won't be getting them. Will there be no rescue helicopters then anymore or will you keep the Sea Kings? -
Yeah! We've got a pilot
and smoke, but don't expect too much about it. Not that much better than in FS9. Perhaps we can tweak it some more.

News for the painter of J-055! The last time it flew in public the number (J-055) wasn't silver as it used to be, but orange. I haven't seen your paint in detail, so I don't know if the paint already has this. I just thought it was a good idea to let you know anyway.
I know, and I've adjusted it already including orange smokewinders
-
So you want us to devote time to making a video of the unfinished product or finishing the product?
Please be patient guys. I'll make new videos when there's a new model showing more stuff than what you've seen before (so with pilot and stuff). For now I've got other priorities, when a new video is done I'll post it here fist.
-
short but necceserary: any news? pics....videos??
Pictures, yes.
Videos, later.
Pics of models from the last beta so not yet with pilot. But pilot WILL BE added later.
First couple of Danish paints
And the J-876 with the brand new 322sqn 65 years tail
Fully weaponed Viper

Stunning pics Nick. Now where's that pilot?
-
The preorder is for the boxed version, but the download version will be available first.
-
Just to be clear, I'm not the maker/modeller of this F-16. I'm only beta testing it and make liveries. So I can't answer all the questions on the model or how long it's going to take untill final release.
James, the things you're seeing are probably floodlights that light certain parts of the cockpit, but I'm not 100% sure. I have to look that up.
And the MDFs (and HUD) are very good readable, even when you move around.
-
Sweet. Probably not gonna be cheap.
-
Afraid of being seen as rude, I am asking you: Can you please post a picture taken directly from the pilots viewpoint right towards the HUD, with a natural zoom? (0.70 for instance)
Sure
First pic is the default view you'll see when loading the F-16. Default view is at 0.70 zoom. Note: these shots are made on 24" widescreen. On normal screens you'll lose some of the view on the sides.
And this 2nd pic is the same view only lowered a bit to show more of the ICP and MDFs.
1. Will we be able to use this model as AI at military bases?2. Can we substitute in this as AI for example with MyTraffic X's F-16's at KEDW, etc ?
3. Will this F-16 incorporate all the Navigational abilities available to the actual aircraft (including GPS/INS/ILS/VOR/NDB/TACAN) from the MFD onboard computer navigation console?
4. Do you have an pic's with Animations of Pilot, armorment, protective covers, parachute, etc. ?
1. I don't think this model will be suitable for AI. It's a very complex model. I haven't tried it as AI, however I used FSrecorder and placed several F-16 on the flightline (you can see pics of that some pages back). That made my fps drop significantly.
2. see 1
3. This F-16 will have all navigational abilities that are available within FSX. Stuff like TACAN isn't available within FSX so won't be available for this F-16. Also there probably won't be a pop-up GPS thing, there will be a sort of GPS in the MDF.
4. No, that stuff is not yet modelled but when it is you can expect some screenshots of that right here.
-
Yes, J-055 will be included. See page 4 on this topic for pics (http://www.forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?sh...16110&st=60)

Thanks for the quick answer But isn't F-16C's avionics black/green coloured?
See this cockpit footage of the F-16C when it was new-
(watch at 02:42)That video is from the 80's, got that somewhere on a DVD as well
It's probably a block 25. F-16C from block 50/52 have full-color displays and under CCIP (Common Configuration Implementation Program) all cockpit and avionics of the older blocks 40/42/50/52 in the USAF will be updated to the same standard among which color MDF. The older blocks that are now serving the with the ANG and AFRC have received them under CUPID (Combat Upgrade Plan Integration Details). -
There will be two F-16 versions on initial release: the A-model (MLU) and the C-model. That means cockpit/avionics that are up-to-date. So no pre-MLU avionics. Making older cockpit lay-out just mean too much work.
-
ok and how about a sound example? because in the videos that vin has uploadet at youtube there is a strange sound...so how it would be to have an apu start,engine start up and so as an sound example?? or is the soundset not yet finished?
I'll make some more videos with start up, taxing, take off, flying and all that stuff when the plane and sounds are more final. Right now I'm not going to upload vids of the Viper without a pilot in it, gives me too many questions in the line of "dude, where's the pilot?"

This just made my day
More Pics of the F-16 to wet your Appetite 'Large Post'

Fantastic Dag, your FS looks pretty decent in DX10. But the problem with DX10 is no lights
That and because I get crappy graphics is why I discard DX10 all together.
For all that would like to see a start-up video: as soon as the start-up procedure is working correct on the F-16 I'll post a video of that as soon as possible. Hopefully that's with the next beta
