CFS3, Jane's WWII Fighters, IL-2 and Crimson Skies into CFS2
basically I had an idea to do three full Conversions (but right I can't hopefully soon I will.) the idea is to recreate CFS3 and Jane's WWII Fighters, and Crimson Skies into CFS2
seeing that Allen already beat me to CFS1 to CFS2 (Edit:In fact everyone kinda already has here XD)
and has already made most Crimson Skies (In fact I use most if not all of his planes XD)
I guess I don't have other things to contribute
Crimson Skies Ideas
I figured it is Possible for me to rip old game textures to recreate gauges and other stuff
UIRES
this guy had a Uires but he never released it. as far as i know
http://blackjackshangar.blogspot.com...-menus-in.html
but I figured I can try and make look more like old game (buttons, mouse cursor and everything! :p even the intro video XP)
Aircraft
there is still Aircraft left form the old PC and High Road to Revenge
http://crimsonskies.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Aircraft
http://xbox.gamespy.com/xbox/crimson...de/page_2.html
this guy was able to rip High Road to Revenge models as i said before.
if any of you are good figuring that out or you can ask him :P

Mission and Campaigns
seeing I have the old game I can recreate the Mission and Campaigns though from scratch
High Road to Revenge would be hard though seeing it's an old XBox Game
Scenery
it's hard but i can rip the models but it will take some time getting it all than again I could use Scenery FS2002 and mod it to look like 1930 :P
CFS3 and Jane's WWII Fighters ideas
UIRES
these two wouldn't me to hard seeing both i can get the textures and stuff
Aircraft
that be kinda hard or easy seeing Jane's WWII Fighters is ripable thorough I have the milkshape plugin and It's vary rear but the plane are mostly CFS1 stile or maybe slightly better
and I have ripped CFS3 :P
Mission and Campaigns
this is probably the easiest thing to do seeing both have Mission editors to reference too.
Scenery
Also the most easiest seeing everything is fully ripable or accessible the only prob is Jane's WWII Fighters and knowing where the hell are the airfields at but seeing it's battle of the bulge it shouldn't be that hard. :dizzy:
Il-2 Ideas
I'd rather just Convert the Aircraft it be good to have some high quality planes instead of third party stuff XP
any how I shall never give up. never Surrender!!! :banghead:
cya later :P
well now that think of it.
note I'm mostly saying stock models form the original game not form others mods.
I never been 100% sure here in this community.. starwars you could actually. it's free IP you can with stock models just don't take mods without asking.
wail most mods are within the game it's self others like Unreal Tournament have done so with other games chars stock models but I remember marvel was one that didn't allow that in ut2k4 but some how no one said anything in ut3
most game company's don't seem to care though. some like Nintendo and EA are like don't even use anything with even the name at all.
no one has ever really had to asked them when comes to Games stock models in a community unless they tell you so.
I'll will note I known the flight sim community all my life and so far. here it's form starch, or ask or don't bother at all now that I thinking of it :P
it may kill the point for you Allen and me to use anything form other game minus star wars :P or not.
edit; note there's always flight gear when comes to models was well there mostly GNU GPL
I was mostly gonna use them for commercial stuff for my game and nun-commercial for here BTW just be care full some stuff says this on them
Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-SA) so don't use them for commercial or with out asking I think.
Edit: BTW where can I go to post anything like so far I have plans to sell a Fighter/Shooter/Simulator game I was thinking I could ask you guys to help out in the Simulator part.
Normally I hate to ask permission to use stuff but it might save some headaches if can get some models or some modelers, and artists here who maybe interested.
I am thinking on going to Gamasutra (yeah I know funny name ain't it :worked_till_5am:) pitch the idea there and start getting some people there also maybe interested helping code this game though.
I plan to use stuff I collected form the FlightGear, Cadnav, CGTrader, TurboSquid to save modeling time. I also got C++ code and blueprint code I've collected form Unreal engine 4 marketplace to save time as well
I guess I can still do something.
I guess then the only conversion I can do is CFS3 to CFS2 but Allen has taken the aircraft I need into CFS2 without having to convert CFS3 models :mixed-smiley-027: the only thing left is for me to finish Crimson skies stuff though judging how things are done here that means form scratch and I'm ok with that. there are to form flight gear that would work though. :P
BTW Allen aside form road to high revenge if you want more Crimson skies aircraft there is this book witch more aircraft blueprints though all new original aircraft and none form the old pc game. not sure if the other books have the other aircraft

though CFS3 is still open to things like scenery an I can still do the aircraft so it wouldn't be a bad idea anyway still I don't see why IL2 models can't be converted fan mods are common in some game mods :P just as long as you take only the stock models and not
mods and stuff.
