Thread: Something new....

    We actually chose this one for a very specific reason... There is one thing that the S8 cannot do that ours will be able to do... I will not say anymore than that...

    Looks superb!
    I can't see a CA27 given the unique external details (3" deeper air intake, shorter rear fuselage, Aden guns, multitude of cooling vents etc) but it would be nice to have the ultimate version of the ultimate 'fighter'.
    Unfortunately an F-86 in RAAF colours just looks wrong.

    LOL!!!!!

    This one should be a bit special.... If I were to have a warbird of my own? The F-86 would fit the bill. Yes the Fury would be nice, but this one should prove educational and fun! PS: I even got to fly it a short way already!!

    So this got me thinking about what the SF8 Sabre can not do..... and I haven't come up with much.

    1. Speed brake and Drop tank Animations working in multiplayer
    2. Control freeze on hydraulic failure
    3. Landing lights that illuminate the ground
    4. Windmilling of the engine for a "korean-war" air start on the ground or in the air.
    5. a more realistic gunsight
    6. a refined flight model (particularly the throttle/power settings)
    7. Radios that fail when they get wet.... j/k.

    Unless you guys have figured out a way to make machine guns work, you've got me beat. Really looking forward to the development of this one. As I write this, I'm looking at a painting of two F-86s taking off in formation for a mission in Korea...... I can't wait guys. Godspeed.

    That's for sure. Just re-tested the S8 Sabre a few weeks ago and FDE wise there's quite some room for improvement.

    yeah..... the SF8 sabre is one of the best aircraft in the sim; it outclasses much of the payware work out there. However, I think Milviz will be able to really impress us by utilizing features specific to FSX.

    F-86D, K and L, that's my votes !

  15. #40
    Good thing this isn't a democrazy... We're doing the F-86F-30 as it's one of my faves and, the one we did for AS was "not very nice".

    We are not doing a D, K or an L or an H or a Fury at this time.

    Yep, mine too.
    But I'm afraid we're not getting a Dog Sabre for a long long time Dag!

    I guess someone else will see the logic and reap the benefits.

    Mock all you like. To be consistent, though, I guess someone should have posted something similar in response to this:

    Come on...really?
    Or, maybe we could agree that expressing our views in a polite, civil manner is part of this hobby, and recognize devs may or may not act on those views - according to their own prerogative - and we agree to live by that.

    All I intended was to give perspective on what I thought would be a highly-appreciated niche. Nevertheless, I respect KC's decision - having heard it from him is fine by me. When KC posted looking for a RW Sabre pilot in July, I gave him a suggestion and have sincerely wished him well - so I'm not losing sleep over this. If that's somehow fodder for your amusement, that's fine by me.

    Guys. Please. The main and most important reason for not doing the D or the H or the L is that they were considerably more complex in terms of radar, weapons, systems and avionics as well as being quite different physically inside and out. We at Milviz, do ONE variant only with maybe some extras in the VC if we can. We do that so that we can put more effort into making sure that it's as right as we can make it. Besides, after the Eagle E debacle, we were looking for something simple but cool. So we decided on that. Please be patient and you will see why.

    Thanks for the compliments and the "votes" but seriously, I do not wish this thread to be closed. If you don't like the plane we chose or wish we would/could do something else, this isn't the way to convince us. Emailing me and begging (or sending money) is a good start. Posting in our forums is a good idea too... but not in a thread where we are showing off what we ARE doing...

    This is just my two cents here but I believe it's valid.

    I am glad to see the F being done "properly". I just hope you make the paint kit as friendly as possible...

  21. #46
    We do try very hard to make the paint kit user friendly but, that said, our goal is always to maximize the amount of quality vs FPS.

    Well said! Anyway, if there were a vote it would be the -F for me anyway.

    Radar equipped 'big sabres' would have been firsts in the FSX world. An F is not.
    Please do the long wing slatted late model at least. Martin Baker MK 5 seats were fitted in these by the RNoAF and Luftwaffe around 1959-60.
    I see the commercial aspect of this and the way MilViz thinks so I do not have particulary high hopes...

    May I point out that the F-Block-30 is equipped IRL with gunsight radar.....Sorry for not being around much guys havent had much internet.
