Still on Airwolf...
I really liked how the photorealistic panel for the front came out. I was really pleased with the way it looked, but now I just have to make all the gauges work! And the slightly less standard backseat panel. That's more fun - I can just let my imagination go!
We've also just re-done our website:http://www.captainjohnfsx.net
We post updates and screenshots there as we go.
End shameless plug.
So, having now taken on responsibility for Scenery and Gauges+other stuff with Airwolf, I hope you like what your seeing. You can see updates of what we're up to in the Screen Shot forum or on the website:http://www.captainjohnfsx.net
Yes, I am just plugging here.
It's a very time consuming process, but the results are very rewarding and look promising. We are trying to create the ultimate Airwolf addon, so it won't be released until it's all right. You might be in for a wait... We're get
So, I'm now on board the Archangel productions team( Hi John!) with the Airwolf project. Only doing the website up, mind you, as you may have noticed in my updated signature. Or not. If you had, that's either er,er very observant or er, er, you have too much time on your hands.:)
Haven't posted here for a while... ages actually. I've been fairly absent from the site since the summer, and I haven't really done much flying or development. I will get that SE5a released... one day.:D I might even get around to finishing the series of aircraft design articles I promised the flightsim team last year...:cool:
The expedition with the photographic scenery went well, by the way. Not that you really care, probably.
This weekend, I'm off on a bit of an expedition. Now, it's on several fells in the Lake District( for my overseas readers, you'd probably call it a couple of small hills, but for us in the UK it's a big thing!)
So, I thought, so I don't get lost, why don't I fly the route beforehand on FSX with my newly acquired photographic scenery? Would it be detailed enough?
It was. I could fly the whole route in the Ultralight. Now, all I have to do is not get lost on Saturday and Sunday!
You've probably heard the term 'Well, it's close enough for jazz.' Whether you were actually playing jazz (and what jazz is) at the time is a matter for another day, but when is it close enough for jazz?
As you may know, I play the Sax. Recently, I was playing a twelve bar blues with some others, and one we had finished( quite difficult with no drummer!) the bassist said to me "Next time,can you stick in the same key for all of it, please?" Now, I wasn't offended by this, but it stuck me that
xxmikexx asked me about the sailing I did last week. Well, when I say I was sailing all last week, I don't actually mean I was on a boat 24/7.:D
I just went sailing every day. I sailed various dingies - Pico, Laser 1, RS Feva. If you've never heard of these, don't worry.;) You may have seen the Laser at the Olympics, which Ben Ainslie of the UK won!
I'll see if I can get some photos, I think there might be one.
I'm sure you've heard of the worldwide craze which is the Nintendo Wii. You may also know that it has a game called 'Heatseeker' available, which is a military flightsim.
Weeell, I'm now on level 2.5, and I'm noticing some significant problems with the game -
1: Numbers. You and your wingman are based on an aircraft carrier called the Nemesis. Not a problem, except you appear to be the only two on the ship. And of course, the kill counts are ridiculous compared. I killed over 50 a
Well, I've been a bit busy this week, been sailing all week. Talk about tired, but fun.
So no flying or development work. Hope to have some more news about these things in a couple of days.
My Blog.
Well. I never thought I'd write one of these.
Ok, so, what am I up too? And where are my projects at?
Well, if you remember the Lightning F6 I was doing, that was the reason for me joining( see the Aircraft Design forum in Feb), that got put on the back burner. As did the SE5a. Although that will come sometime.
What I am doing at the moment is an update for the PSS Concorde, to put it in FSX. That should go out in the next few weeks.
Also, my major project at the moment
