Very good work, Release date?.

Looking good mate! Your idea for the cockpit sounds good, I say go for it. I think that the gear doors need to be a little bit thicker as at the moment they are quite thin. Landing gear looks good (if not a bit flimsy :lol: ). Keep up the good work!

:cheers:

Remember, modelling takes time. Be patient and good things will come. :wink:

[quote="agracier"]This is indeed a great looking plane and should be fun to fly in missions ...

I play both sides of the fence on real planes vs concept craft. Sometimes I like to fly realisitic missions, sometimes it's cool to go out and What-If it. I say build and release anything that remotely falls in the spirit of IL-2, spanning pre-war planes through the Korean war jets and all the concept/fantasy craft in between.
And if you don't want to fly it, don't. It's that simple. I personally think the Lerche is the most ridiculous vehicle in the game. But there is a plethora (yes, I used that word) of real planes that weren't included in the game that truly would be fantastic to have. And there is also an equal amount of planes that never were that many people would like to fly just because they are cool and fit the timeframe.

Build it. Build them all!

I extruded the gear doors to make them thicker, also cut out the bomb bay and created some doors for it. I also did a test to see about getting the main fuselage into IL2 and I got it in but... The faces were flipped, so it appeared inside out. Also any piece that I attached and exported with the main fuselage did the same thing. Still working at it.

hey good work!

Just flip all polygons before exporting out of 3dsmax! Have this issue too!

I don't actually think that's right. It's the perceived technological advances or more to the point, the mystique of Nzi Germany and the conspiracy theory it generates that creates this aura of German wizardry. Now I must agree they had some sensational ideas, but bear in mind the vast majority of these plans were no more than speculative drawings put under the nose of Technisches Amt and promptly discarded as impractical, wasteful, and just plain daft. Also, since our records of that development are incomplete (damage from allied action, retention and suppression of data by the Soviet Union, or simply destruction by retreating German staff) the mystery is more pointed - just what were the Germans working on?

As for the Allies, they weren't all that far behind. The problem with German designs is that they often relied on experimental solutions to problems rather than applied and developed practice, so they bogged themselves down with development programs that got nowhere.

There are other things to consider. The Germ,ans were developing a whole plethora of guided and unguided missiles (such as the A10, a missile twice the length of the V2, or what about a guided ground to air missile that resembled a SAM of the later era? They had test fired a number of those before the wars end)

Why the fascination for Luft46 planes ? Well, from a very superficial point of view, because they look great I'd say it's a combination of all the reasons already mentionned, but perhaps also because of the context. Germans have a tendency to be very rigorous and rigidly organized people, and so every last bit of info, every single document ever used by the Luftwaffe or any other German organisation was meticulously classified and kept for later reference. If a drunk Willy Messerschmidt had drawn a quick sketch of a plane with a cockpit facing backwards and vertical wings, called it the 'Me-Picasso' then sent it as a joke note to Goering forhis birthday, it'd have been kept. 60 years later historians and researchers would have unearthed it and we'd have a Picasso instead of a Lerche in 1946...

Cheers

Sorry :lol:

How about September 28th 2009? 8)

It may not be in the downloads section, but the visual model should be in game by that date.

Still working when ever I'm not at work ... Tomorrows Friday (thank god!) so I should get some nice progress in over the weekend. Gear bays, bomb bay, fuselage, and engines are unwrapped so far.
