Fox Four update

Postby Hagar » Sun Feb 22, 2004 7:53 am

Sorry, no new campaigns just yet. Check out the Fox Four site in the next few days for the new Extras section. The guys have been busy on other things over the last few months. In the meantime Mike Eustace has created some great new panels (with his latest split panel feature) including one for the F-86 Sabre used in The Hunters campaign.

Collin Glendinning, our naval adviser & chief beta tester, has created some brand new ships for use in missions with the help of Tom Sanford. These include the Colossus Class carrier HMS Ocean. Here's a preview of his latest HMS Belfast. This is still being tweaked & tested.

I'll be updating the site & posting these files shortly. Others will be added as they're finished.

The Fox Four project is now in its 2nd year & we hope to carry on as we started with quality as our first priority. This means that things take a while to get right. Thanks to everyone for your continuing support. ;)

~S~ Hagar,

Looking forward to that Mig-15 campaign - the others are outstanding! These updates look excellent, too!

You guys deserve a real world medal for all of the work you do in the virtual one!

I take that as a compliment coming from you Woody. We will be doing a Commonwealth campaign featuring Hayden's new Sea Fury operating from HMS Ocean some time in the future. I'm not sure about HMS Belfast. You would have to ask Collin about that. He's pretty hot on this stuff. :)

;D Thanx bat.

I've been working with LoD models at the same time to reduce framerates. I think I've got it fairly well balanced with the MiG and I've updated the Sabre as well. The updated model should be available on the Fox Four extras page soon, if it's not already there. With these two as decent LoD models, I think that they will make good multi-player planes. Who knows, we may yet have a roaring Korean War multi-player community  ;)

Sounds like a great idea ;D

Does the MiG also have a VC?

I think Fang has toddled off up the wooden hill to Bedfordshire.

Yes. All our flyable aircraft have a full DVC & all the bells & whistles. ;)

PS. This does not include the JWB Panther used in the Bunker Hill campaign. We have since decided to create all our own stuff. This will take longer but will give us full control over future releases.

Great ;D

Another question... Will they also be compatible with FS?
