Well I'm not here to judge wether it would be good or not for online play, but it's a shame we can't get it anyways..

Whats the problem with on line play and a mod to get in or out if teh plane? Its a bit more of inmerssion. as much as landing after the fight. or opening the canopy, or shutting down teh engine... or the whole porces at the begining of teh mission.
Some gammers don

so was this only released amongst friends then??
I would love something like this too....not to say I would use it all the time, but having the option...is what all these mods are about.
Looks like it is mouse controlled to me

It was not released at all AFAIK. Kegetys, a guy from Finland, hacked the game two or three years ago and made such mods as 6DOF for TrackIR, many fixed cameras on airplanes and the walking pilot mod, maybe more. At the time he didn't want to share that hack, because everyone could've made cheats with that. He said that he wanted to release it when more secure versions of the game (like 4.07 was) came along, but that never materialized.
And as i stated earlier, i'd like to have this too. But it seems that a reasonable amount of programming would be involved. So unless someone who is good with Java wants to do this mod, i don't see a chance of it being released.

I'm mostly an offline player and having such possibility would give such cool potential for single missions! So can anybody explain me what is all the fuss about?
yes for single play, this is an awesome mod, but for online play, it serves no purpose
You could stand on the runway and let planes crash into you... or run around on the enemy airfield after being shot down vulching. The purpose here would be FUN. (Don't take this too serious, except for the FUN part
)

Java = Jolly
All the cockpit stuff adding of cockpits and animation is done is basically done in java and stuff by mr Jolly. He does most of the java work here as far as i know. There has also been a big discussion about this mod before it's not the first... Also even if it doesn't serve a purpose online and if it does offline doesn't mean you can't make this mod... That has nothing to do with it. Everyone has their own oppinion, whether you like it or not this is quite popular....

aaah, the old kagetys hack, the first "officially" known. funny,
actually, it could be fun for coop and wars. imagine: you forced-landed in ennemy lines, you leave the plane and try to run into you lines trying to evade the flak and other artillery fire! simply more fun and allowing the player to "play" even if the plane is down instead of leaving the game and waiting-bored for the next coop! :wink:

I would definitly use this mod for some missions. As was stated earlier in the thread, being able to run and scramble would be great. I also enjoy the idea crashing behind enemy lines and running for cover or safety. The debrief idea is great too. I say go for it...I will use it.

Actually, if this mod were made with movable arms it could have great potential online as an aid for carrier landings with the user being the guy on deck who guides in the returning planes.

if the mod is free please link
because that is tight

Ok, so it would be basically up to MrJolly if he does the mod. I read all of the discussion about this hack back in the day... it was basically mod-haters against more free-minded people.

You misunderstood me a bit there. I was not bashing the mod or anyone, and i am happy to leave others to their opinion, except if i feel it is ludicrous, but that is definitely not the case here, so no hard feelings. I just meant that making this mod would be one of the more difficult ones to make. And it is popular with me too.
