Thread: Horton HO 229 jet fighter for CFS2 released by Allen!

    Some ideas to improve the ho229a

    I made some adjustments to the aircraft config and damage profile. For the cannons... I changed the trigger to the gun trigger.

    For the aircraft config... i reduced the nose wheel steering radius to 60 degrees.

    Hope that helps.

    Engine data is from Mksystem Me262. I used it engines as it says the plane works well as an AI. I have vary bad luck with jet engines and CFS2 with the AI. The spool up time to get the engines started is long.

    Will fix the DP.

    Thanks for recognizing my fixes.

    Hi All,
    In the aircraft config. file change the number of contact points from 9 to 5.
    This will keep the AC from not destructing when you crash.

    Regards,

    Ok, I'm trying to follow what you guys are saying, but not sure on this point. Changed number of points from 9 to 5. Those lines you mentioned Allen, they are in the config already under the nose section and are commented out, do I just remove the / from in front of those lines?

  9. #34
    Hi Eddie,
    It looks like Allen has changed some of the contact points.
    If you copy and paste the data from Allen's post removing the backslash's, leave the number of contact points at 9.

    Hope this helps,
    B24Guy

    Started working on making a gray texture that may be usable as paint template.

    The idea of true night fighter is dead. The model won't work as 2 seater with out changing up the whole nose. I'll keep the texture as it looks nice.

    Can't be bare metal aircraft as the Ho229 was mostly wooden skinned.

    Thank you Allen, and the rest of the crew here for the CFS2 conversion and all the tweaks.
    This Horton is a very nice airplane. It seems to handle like the gliders it was developed from.
    Porting to FS9, the airplane had some pitch problems that were improved by relocating the
    CG location, and re-calculated the MOI values. If anyone wants to take a look at these changes,
    I'll be happy to post them.

    I like all the paints that have been done so far, including the grey one. I'd like to try some
    "what if" markings.

    Once again, thank you.

    @Hurricane91
    Your free to convert it to FS02/04, Just stick my ReadMe files into the README folder. I'll be uploading the final version soon that with have the night fighter gray and USAAF textures.

    @Anyone
    True night fighter not so dead after all.

    Pushed the pilot forward a bit and made the front tire smaller so I could get the guy in the back. Only the main LOD done so no change done to the interior or lower LODs.

    I have to ask Allen, really don't know much about the Horton. But you have it set up to carry 2 1000 kg bombs. Could the air frame have handled that much weight?

    I'm not sure if it could take 2000 kg total but MS loaded it that way in CFS3 so I did the same.

    Allen,

    Very nice job. This is exactly how we got the original Ju-88 set for CFS2 many moons ago!

    Had no idea anyone had ripped models from CFS3 before.

    Marty
    FS04 and CFS2 behave the same way. Things have to be reworked for FS04 so change made for FS04 really don't translate back too well. Also FS04 dosen't use a DP. DP is CFS1 and CFS2 only.

    No Dice
    Thanks for the shout out

    Anyone
    2 Seater takes flight! Still some work to be done on the VC/interior as I forgot to put some sort of panel thing behind the pilot seat.
