But I agree. Who cares what flag is on our F/A 18's aslong as it's supposed to be there.
Technically known as the Union Flag when not flown at sea...

Back on topic, very nice skin, I too hated the 'nilla version and this is a serious improvement.

Did i not tell you......

As for the skin, yer his done a amazing job on the skin...

EDIT: heres a following pic to show what not right on the skin...

All the problems i have been able too pick without refs (Thank the AAFC for that one :P ) but the refs are there to back up what i am saying...

Main Point is that you have a scheme of both SQNs ??? Dont understand why... My best advice would be stick to 77 SQN as they are deployed the most.

Capslock is not cruise mode for cool and implying that you're yelling at someone will not make them answer your question any quicker, or with any form of politeness.

Likewise, EMPHASISING SOMETHING is generally best done when you aren't trying to ask someone something, as in this case it comes across as you attacking them. Might wanna pull your head in.

Good work to the lads doing this stuff, it's looking great.

Agreed with Aestabjoo on the caps... please refrain from using them like you have in that post...

I cant answer your question atm as i dont know "but" i will get back to you on it.


EDIT:
Ok as i said i would get back to you so here it is... After consulting some other DEVs to find out how this works and how easy it is i have come to this conclusion.

We will replace the weapons systems with Australian variants as there are attached as child objects (BUT, its not high priority and would not be looked at by any of the ADF team atm as we just dont have the time or man power to go into little things like this when we mainly just use the US stuff anyway)

The weapons as Child Objects are considered "dummy weapons" meaning that they a a child object, that disapears (and is replaced with a projectile) when the weapon is fired ie makes it look like you drop a bomb or fire a missile, there for should not be to hard to make it would just be the coding that would take up time...

Therefor as i said before adding Australian variants of weapons systems on the F18 - Super Hornet is not a high piroity and wont be looked at at this current time.

tonnie,

To add to that too...
- Undercarriage Should be very light grey almost white same as the weel rims
- Overall aircraft needs to be cleaned up so like where you have all these black wear and tear marks, you need to remove them... Maybe just have a little round the intake but other then that the RAAF keep there Aircraft in very high order and well maintained, try and show this the best you can on the skin :P

relax mate


nice skin. love the ammount of detail the PR team goes into, it blows me away.

the point about the dirty looking aircraft, i agree it should be cleaner. i never understood why in games (especially bf) they 'dirty' up the aircraft. it doesn't make it more realistic, it just seems silly. i'm sure ground crews keep the planes clean...they are million dollar pieces of equipments after all

ok so i know this is not a priority unit,
but just going over my mail. and apparently the f18/f "rhino" has arrived in town, and from what i have heard round the picnic table ;-) ;-) these little beauties can cart around a single 5000lbs hardened ground penetration munition. supposedly there are a bunch of other variants but getting that kind of information might be a little harder to get.
the guys at the Boeing lab in Brisbane initially built them for F111's but since then have been modifying them for f35's and now the f18's (funnily enough this fix is pretty easy)

cheers.
