Can't wait.. im glad im not the only one making WW2 planes!! any ETA yet ?
Are you going to make B25's or so too ?
I was thinking about them (make them without turrets)... maybe we can coop one time to make a joint effort addon ;)

Anyway... keep up the great work!!

I know...where is all the plane people? Thanx Fw200.I expect to put out the Corsair this weekend.I think I am going to stay small for a while.
My Helldiver is sitting without a tailgunner.
I plan to do a Zero next ,and maybe 2 british fighters (Hurricane & Spitfire prolly)

If nobody (FW200 ,lol) puts out any German planes (I see some in process?)
I may do a Stuka and Me109 or something.

Also need to do a AC Carrier sometime if nobody does one.

The Corsair will be released in USMC (Blacksheep), US Navy,and night fighter versions.I am already having fun with it.
The USMC Blacksheep will prolly be the fastest fighter I put out

I have specs and data on all US Navy WW2 Warplanes,but after the Corsair we will be all set on US units (You have the P51)
Need the Zero next

BTW FW200...I can't post on WW2EC now? I'd like to keep you guys informed and hoping you may host it also

Thanx again guys.Yes I signed up,it lets me login,but no permission to post (maybe was just a nightly bug? I can try again)
I can't post on Inv44 because I applied for a job,my app sat for a month ,got like 18 reads and I deleted it,now they wont let me post (lol)

I have 4 versions of the Corsair so far

USMC Blacksheep - 4000rnds,high rof,730kmh top speed

USMC Night Ops - 2500 rnds,mid rof700 kmh top speed,4 250lb bombs (2 or 4 hellfires maybe soon?)

US Navy - 2000 rnds,low rof,670 kmh tops speed,1000lb bomb,4 250lb bombs

East Japanese (don't laugh,just for dogfight purposes) Painted in white with Jap markings
650 kmh top speed ,and 1200rnds ,low rof

Thats where I am at,using setobjecttexture with the same model
(plane is skinnable)
Always new innovations!

Yeah :) also had that idea but im doing it on a smaller scale.. i have the HO on the side exchangable with others... and if someone wants to do a reskin.. they send me the reskinned file and if we like it il put it in the next release ;)

Anyway looks great :) cant wait... youre 10x faster than me :P

Thanx Marss , and thanx to you too for the addons.And you are currently working on WW2 stuff? Thats great!! Wheres a stuka? I like Stukas and I would have made one,but I assumed it would be one of the first made.But none yet? My Helldiver is similiar and will  be real nice once I come up with a tailgunner.

FW200: Whats your expected release date? How we gonna do this ? Whats your top speed and such? Hows it handle? Should be very similiar to my Corsair.
Hmmm..... mine maybe be first?


I'm real far on textures, almost complete (beta anyways),just doing up the dash now.
I kept it low poly and its just  over a 1000 faces right now

I have many color schemes,and plan on releasing a texture pack with my psp files.
As the model is skinnable user changeable

Maybe you should put rockets in there instead, that would be more accurate

Hi all
If anyone cares I' am currently making a German plane add-on it is a Fieseler Fi-156 Storch. It has extremely interesting characteristics like short takeoff and landings (with-in 100 feet) which I will try to create in OFP.
This add-on is still way in beta the textures + panel need a lot of work still.
When I finish this i will make the Ju-52. The German equal of the DC-3 or C-47

Post by: Gogs on 08 Mar 2003, 11:35:58
WOW! The Storch looks awsome. Any chance of a third seat so we can ferry around the Geran higher command? And when can we expect this? It looks great!

How have you put the rear turret on the storch?!?!?!

Post by: Trenchfeet on 11 Mar 2003, 07:42:24
Sorry about the slow reply , but now to answer the questions - the turrent does not fire yet , it is just part of the plane I'am working on it though.
There proberly wont be 3 seats because this wasn't accurate  but if i get requests for the extra seat i will add it

I have put a beta avaliable http://www.freewebz.com/storchforofp/index.htm (http://www.freewebz.com/storchforofp/index.htm) i'am looking for feedback, how does it fly? does it work?
Title: Re:WW2 Warplane Status
Post by: dday on 12 Mar 2003, 02:03:48
Hi Trenchfeet.
The storch is not there? the url reports it as not available?
Is it me?
It looks really good in the screenies tho' and I look forward to playing with it:)


I am working towards a FW 190 A8 panzerbock.
I have it down OK in max but really need some serious help with straining it through O2.:(

Very Impressive

Check out these to sites they have some good information on 3d modeling.
The 1st helps with naming all the movable parts and arming the plane.
http://ofp.gamezone.cz/_hosted/brsseb/ (http://ofp.gamezone.cz/_hosted/brsseb/)
The 2nd  some gear and canopy tutorials although yours is a sliding canopy and the tut is for a hinge type
http://www.dc3d.co.nz/Tutorials/index.htm (http://www.dc3d.co.nz/Tutorials/index.htm)
and ofpec tuts section has another tut on folding gear. May come in handy unless you already know.

Thx.
The first link is a 404
The Colonel Klink page is good.

My OFP is playing up at the moment but I will test the Storch to destruction soon as possible:)

Great thanx for the help. I was unsure,I won't put any rockets on the beta

Its 1.3 meg and named IEGF4U.ZIP
Title: Re:WW2 Warplane Status
Post by: Strangelove on 17 Mar 2003, 19:42:00
Interesting little plane. It flies great. Obviously the sounds and textures need work. And, as I think you said, the taxiing dust cloud appears above the model. I also had some difficulty approaching the canopy from the right side, as though there was an invisible extension from the wing.

I'm sure you're right, but was the Corsair really that short?

What payload versions are you thinking of including?

Folding wings, I imagine, are out of the question. Yes, Martin has done it with the Bond Jet, but the wings do not have ailerons. Maybe you could include a static version with folded wings if any WW2 carriers are released.
Title: Re:WW2 Warplane Status
Post by: BraTTy on 17 Mar 2003, 20:04:34
Folding wings aren't a problem.I already incorporated that into my Helldiver and the flaps and ailerons still work (hidden selections).The Navy version of the Corsair will have it.

I specified some payloads on http://internalediting.ofprc.net/modules/news/

I released the Corsair mainly so other modmakers can see the use of invisible selections making the gear act like multiple animations.

If you notice the gear folds back,then the wheels fold in,thats a first

And the size of the plane...I made it from a US Navy blueprint,but the plane was huge ingame compared to the soldiers,I had to shrink the plane to match the soldier size,I wish more warplanes were out so we all can compare and keep things similiar

News? Well I am currently working on the Corsair, trying to button it up.Then the Helldiver and work has started on a Japanese Fighter and I expect a beta at least at Corsair final release.
I have joined WW2EC ...http://www.ww2ecteam.com/

And am starting a "War In The Pacific" mod there. I plan on making a fleet of planes and a few carriers of the WW2 era

Looking great ! Its alot more finished than mine. Due to other projects I haven't gotten done so far what I wanted to ,but its progressing.

Been whacking away at the textures when I can, still have parts to do.

Already done up the folding wings and invisble selections to go with that,I've added a few more touches (antenna and radar ball)

And of course I have been working on a bare Zero ,I needed to do the Zero so that I could match and finalize mainly the Corsair handling,and thats done too

Its getting there, problem is that I play BF1942 alot and had a match tonight for a twl Tribes 2 game and lost : (
Title: Re:WW2 Warplane Status
Post by: Trenchfeet on 04 Apr 2003, 10:06:18
Textures are a pain!
In my view texturing the zero white will be a nightmare.
So Good Luck  :)

Also what part of the Pacific is you're mod going to be based (Guadalcanal, Midway, etc...).

Another thing we need pilots!!!
Anyone intrested?
