As usual, Pumpyhead brings us nice toys!! we're almost covering all FALCONS!! (note: we've Mike's XL too!)
quote:Well, here's the good news and the bad news:
The good news is, yes, others are complete already. Here's the list:
1. F-16CG
2. F-16D
3. F-16AM Netherlands
4. F-16AM Belgium
5. F-16AM Denmark
6. F-16C HAF ASPIS
7. F-16B
8. F-16D IAF (in progress)
All have operating canopies and numbers 3 & 6 have parachutes.
The bad news is, no for SP4. The reason is that it will take a while for skinners to get their templates built and up to speed. In other words, there's no clothing for these babies yet.
The sort of good news is, Mike Rivers has made a plug-in that will enable me to release the new models as an F4Patch as they come online.

In case you miss it, Steve from Viperwear sent wonderful screenshots to UT site. nice A-7 skinning!
http://f4ut.frugalsworld.com/
since each theater got its own texture DB/A7D(7 set skin)/A7E(5 set skin), we can definitely get most Sq in each theater!!

Being a model supplier, i have no idea too.
forget it, you can't get SP4 in 3-4 weeks. i think insiders want delay the release to.... Xmas, or Q1 2003.

I've never tried that before. I didn't know you can copy parts over from model to model. Thanks, I'll give that a go.

The intake cones are there, but need to be split out. I tried structuring the fuselage with no splits, just arranging all nodes in order back to front to see what would happen. Still needs more splitting.

more screenshot from Recce!
Actually the only slot to hold Matra 530(earlier version) is centerline hardpoint. Mirage F1 can carry two rounds, and mirage2000 is regularly fitted with two super 530.
Though Mirage III is not a fully capable BVR fighter, it should be popular in many theaters, esp historical campaigns.

nice screens!
The only thing left to be tweaked is, texture of hemlet. it should be white in color with (better) a red star, and four or five pressure-balance holes.

Preview shots from Recce, Mirage 2000 two seater, original model by Exo.
well done, as usual. everything is moving nicely, though probably too late for SP4 .

well done Quake.
don't forget add a dragchute, you may pick one from Spike's Mig21 model.
