Other new plane ideas (assuming we can someday mess with the weapons).

1. Clone a fighter aircraft that also carries bombs.

2. Remove bomb loadouts.

Done. This would NOT mess witht he FM, the DM, or indeed even the weapons. We'd be removing a load set, and it doesn't affect the stock plane at all.

Why? Take virtually all US fighters. They have huge bomb loads because they were used this way at some point. OTOH, they were frequently NOT used as fighter bombers. It would be cool to make a DF map where to bomb things US pilots had to fly, god forbid, BOMBERS. Ditto with the totally bogus bomb loads for the Zero. Zeros did NOT carry 250kg bombs except on suicide missions. Most never carried 30kg or 60kg bombs, either. Same story, imagine a CV battle where the bombers were D3As, B5Ns, TBFs, and SBDs. Oh, and dump the ridiculous wing bombs from the SBDs and only allow centerline bombs assuming changing them to 100s is forbidden. These would be new planes, all with lowered capabilities to force the right kind of fights online.

Looks like FC has made big headway in this area, for objets and now Ships :!: viewtopic.php?t=2422&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=26

Loadout changes are AFAIK very difficult if not impossible even in 4.05

I wonder about weapons changes, though.
Somebody allready mentioned MG only I-16s.

So I would suggest late war 109s (G-10 and G-14) with MG 151/20 instead of MK 108.

Btw the Arado E-555 !!!! are you fooking mad !!! hock: jk... looks cool. Wait until a 3d editor comes tho, cuse no one will make that aircraft.

What's wrong with the thing? Okay, I know that most of the ones around don't like 46 planes but come on! It's like... what 46 SHOULD have included. B-29's cockpit can be used by the way.

You may add the new plane in(to;at) list, but will not be use it.
Record is Required about for him in the base of the weapon

Hmmm intresting news.... once we get this working, i can also add room for carriers... moveable carriers with wires...in dogfights. whats better then that !! ?

fairly simple process.... use a floatplane, make it heavy. Use a carrier model... done.. Use a new engine sound and make it slower. :roll:
I have been experiminting with that also.

[fvk]

Then won't someone have the enter the server and play as an aircraft carrier?

[Hellzone]

thats why u have water spawn points.... all is good.

if so that would be so great

like would it be possible to add a Avro Lancaster???

there was a lancaster in the works as a frankenplane... but once this is done and a 3d converter is found...

Hi to all

We can have more airplanes without doing them. Let me explain:

Gloster Sea Gladiator: Just add tail hook (perhaps three blade propeller)
de Havilland Sea Mosquito: Just add tail hook, folding wings, torpedo bomb
Hawker Sea Hurricane: Just add tail hook
Vought F4U-7 Corsair: Just add four blade propeller

And for some others few modifications. The big idea is not to have to draw all the airplane and create the cockpit again.

[Hellzone]

I have already made the sea huricane, it just needs the get the hook moveing. The Mosquito i could do to. Not for 4.08 tho... for the time being.
I was also working on the F4u4 with the 4 blade prop. The game dosent load the p47 prop, its very difficult to understand why it dosent.
