F-15 ACTIVE

5,575 Korzalerke2147483647  1.8 years ago

> ISAF livery <


Controls and flight characteristics are on the craft instructions.


Second replica I actually finished, a relatively large jump from the first.

Honestly I didn't have much hope for this thing given I already had 4 jet replica attempts I gave up on, 3 of which were F-16s (as far as I know it's one of the easiest replicas to build), it's a miracle I didn't scrap this as soon as I got to the inlets.

Hard work pays off, it seems. Maybe I should try making an F-22 one day, if you don't hear from me again it's because I did try and went insane due to long-term paneling exposure.


Features

  • Odd flight model (Think a mix of Ace Combat and real planes, fun to fly but kind of weird)
  • 3D Thrust Vectoring
  • Post-Stall Maneuvering
  • Automatic roll trim
  • Limited gun ammo
  • Low part count? Maybe?
  • No flares, just dodge the missiles bro

Payload

Weapons:

  • 2x Missile
  • 2x Fuel-Air Explosive Bomb

Credits

  • SpartanSR91: Gave me the idea for the "lowrider mode", from a weird glitch in MP where the plane clipped into the ground constantly, making it look like it was trying to show off its suspension.

  • ReinMcDeer: Weapons Balancing Database, made adding missiles a lot less annoying.

  • TheFlightGuySP: Helped with the landing gear code.


XML Updates

v1.01

  • Made the landing gear doors slighly more accurate to a real F-15 (also done on the ISAF livery version).

v1.02

  • Fixed the livery blue converging stripe thing (wasn't so hard, why did I never bother to do it?)
  • Made the canopy a bit wider (looks better when viewed from the front now
    (also done on the ISAF version)

    The best model I have ever found of the ACTIVE. That's all I have to say about this masterpiece.

    using control base for tvc instead of rotators is a very clever idea ⟩:)
