FSX F-15SX

[Xpand]

Released a test version of the F-15SX. It's already available for download.
If you want to activate the no weapons model you just have to go the the plane's folder and changes the "model_clean" folder to "model.clean". (BTW if the downloads moderator could add that info for me since I forgot to include it in the description, I would thank a lot. )
Enjoy and criticize it, constructively.

Thanks!

No problem!
Here's the unfinished concept drawing for the cockpit, so you can see where I'm going with it:

Great plane but here are the things that need working on.
1. The spoiler does not open partially at supersonic speeds and fully, only fully and it also needs to make more of an impact at below 400kts.
2. The wheels make too much smoke when landing.
3. The thrust vectoring nozzles need to move when banking e.g When banking left the left nozzle points upwards & the right points downwards.
4. The Vertical stabilizers should be seen from the vc
Great plane though 8-)

Thanks! That will help.
Huh, the vertical stabilizers are not supposed to be seen from the VC because the seat is going to block the view.
And about the airbrake what your saying is that at high speed the airbrake does not deploy fully when you press the spoiler key? Because I never saw that in mine...

I don't know why it make a lot of smoke in the landing ,but about the spoiler deploy I test the Acceleration Hornet and it deploys completely at any speed too..



You would have to make 2 more different part keys for spoiler in the

I know why. Under [Effects] In the aircraft.cfg, there is a line for touchdown effects. touchdown=fx_tchdwn, 1 is the norm for commercial aircraft. To make it have small effects like the GA aircraft, simply add _s as seen here: touchdown=fx_tchdwn_s, 1
Hope I helped!

[Xpand]

Yeah, XFalcon is right. But because the original Aircraft.cfg was from FS2004 I haven't checked that out..
Alrot, the VC is going to have all the clickable and moveable stuff you're used to see in my planes. I just didn't add those yet since, even though I started the plane 2 years ago it wasn't supposed to have a VC nor to be released... I only released it because, after a while, some people saw the video of it I had made for fun for youtube and asked me why didn't I released it... And actually there was no true reason no to...  Just lack of time I guess...

I knew it ,because the airplanes is already terrific from the exterior

Hi,
I'm running fsx gold, i've installed the f1-15sx but not seeing anything on instrument panel, was flying the nasa version, i've the hud, ins panel is just grey, is this because your still working on the panel?

cheers

Yes, the panel is still only grey because it has no textures neither gauges. I think the only gauge available is the provisory HUD.
