Thoughts for 1.08
« on: April 27, 2001, 11:09:00 AM »
How about making version 1.08, or maybe a later version such as .09 and .1 to "Twin engined version".

Add some twins like ME410, He219 and Maybe TA154.
Mosquito, Beufighter, P61 Black Widow, another P38 version and some more japanese and maybe a few rushian and italian twins too.
As it is now we have one twin engined fighter.

Personally I want the ME410 and HE219 BAD, especially the ME410 with lots of different loadouts such as 2xMK103 30mm + 1x50mm + normal armement.

P61 won't happen.  It takes a talented artist to get those loft lines down.

Did someone mention the 410?  That alarm wen t off as soon as someone typed it in.  And Wilbus if they don't add the 410 or the 219 go check out www.nightbomber.com  they are modeling the He-219 and the 410 might be in as well.

LW should just get one plane in 1.08. And that should be the Stuka.  

US - Tigercat
Britain - Mosquito or Beaufighter (preferably both)
VVS - Pe-2
Japan - some twin engined plane

The US and Germany shouldn't get ANY aircraft in 1.08.

Fer pete's sake! How about just some Japanese, Russian and possibly Italian aircraft?

cc that. A Ki-44 for example would give you a fairly fast plane, and a hella lotta interesting gun options.

Ki-44-IIb 4x12.7mm [1942]
Ki-44-IIc 2x12.7mm + 2x37mm [1944]
          2x12.7mm + 2x40mm
          4x20mm (HO-3)

Its Japanese, its climbs like a bat outta hell (faster than Ki-84) and has un conventional guns loadouts, and you get a 1942 and 1944 versions.


I'll leave now

HA! All sane people know that all non LW planes exist only to give Luftwaffe some targets, no mather how easy they might be to shoot down!  

Hey Rip, got some talentet artist on HTC, wouldn't be surprised if we get it although it'll most likely not be as soft as it should for game play performance, all those round surfaces would kill even the best computer, one of the reasons no plane in AH has got round fuselages but maybe 10 or so edges, looks nice anyway

The Ki-44 would be a very interesting plane. Especially with those super-low velocity 40mm!

How about the SBD, and/or the SB2C for that beautiful Essex class carrier?

While I'm at it, why not put the art work for the tailhooks in 1.07? Would that be too difficult? And one last request, how about folding wings? I know, I know, just a bunch of eye candy, but hey, you can't blame me for asking!

 The mudmovers I can understand, and would love to see, but the Night Fighters I wonder how  well they would deal with the MA.

Wilbuz, that's an ongoing troll with Super and myself (comment about talent)...

I think one of the reasons we won't see any nightfiters anytime soon is due to the difficulty of modeling a primitive onboard radar system that blends well with our current AWACS radar system and the fact that we don't have the exhaust fire showing on engines, this was necessary to find the contact once within 1 mile of the contact within the onboard radar.  What would you need it for anyway, there is a big neon billboard icon saying "Your meal is this way".

Isn't it interesting how people can add thier ideas in a thread that pertains to absolutely nothing they are talking about.  Since when are single engine planes the same as twin engine planes?
