Does it work in FSX? And if not, is there a version that will?

Do you get what you pay for?

Do the weapons work in anything other than CFS2?

If the answer to all of these is "NO", than what other A-4s would you suggest?

RAZBAM has a lot of products in the pipe right now, and I know they have said they are working on a native A-4 package... Right now the only thing publicly known/shown is the Virtavia A-4. Knowing RAZBAM it will be a great product from them, but the Virtavia one blew me away when I saw the screens. No clue when yet though.

The Razbam guys displayed a preview shot a few weeks back on their facebook page, looks pretty early in the process but it will be worth the wait, just hope they do the Melbourne to go with it like they did with the first generation :jump:

I thought the RAZBAM Harrier was imminent, it seems to have gone a bit quite on that.<o:p></o:p>

No worries Ian !! :icon_lol:

The Harrier sure is nearing release.

About the Skyhawk, Jeansy is right about the selectablel ordnance. RAZBAM will never return to static load outs. :salute:
Also, one should expect multiple versions of the Skyhawk......

Cheers,
Hank

If the screenshot that people are talking about is the one I saw on facebook....the shape is all off......I'm sorry but....to me it looked like the FS9 birds either ported over or redone for FSX. I was sure hopeing they would go with new drawings and be comparable to the A-7 but........not going to hold my breath.

Well Skyhawk, apparently you simply don't know what you're talking about! Pity......
No screenshots are shown of the new Skyhawk yet, so better keep your opinion (complaining about the FS9 model on a FSX forum ) to yourself and just wait till the first screenies show up on FB.

Rest assured to others, they are absolutely not "way-off" as Skyhawk implies.


Cheers,
Hank

Hank I think you need to be careful with what you say because the A-4 is my passion. If you have any connection to this project I think you should book mark this quote of yours....be prepared for my critique especially on your textures since you seem to be in attack mode here. Besides...once the Virtavia is out.....thats the only canvas I'll need for my texture work. At least they have taken my advise and answered questions and made changes before the plane was put out.

And this is the shot from facebook....

:icon_lol: well I am not in attack mode Skyhawk, but the pic you show is the FS9 model, as Jeansy already mentioned.
Being critique is not a bad habit, in fact very welcomed by devs, but you cannot give critique on things that haven't seen daylight on the internet.

Well......my concerns are based on past experience and why I have held off buying any planes from RAZBAM because of short coming that were brought to the attention of the DEV's and bascially ignored. I'm guessing its because I was once a texture artist for them and I gave up due to the type of layout they use for their texturing. My last suggestion being that the A-7 sits too high and I supported this with many photos and details............and it was left un-addressed. I'm not much of a "by the book" flyer and the way they set their planes up I feel is done in a way that it limits them in sales, and I think they should also look into a fail safe button as other DEV's have done for easy starts and easy flight.....but that too was ignored....but hey....thats just my two cents. thank god for the other DEV that looks to a wider base of sales.

I could be mistaken but I could have sworn I saw a max render of the new bird a few weks ago.

Yep you're right. Forgot those shots. Still to early dev shots to judge clearly for some though. :icon_lol:
Thanks for sharing.
