Lockheed S-3 Viking - The Sequel Thread

[jmbiii]

Dino said it. Some one has to initiate a new thread on his upcoming S-3.
I can't wait. Well I guess I'll have to though.

Thanks for the reminder. It will be great to have a nice Hoover in FSX!

Ok, above are some screenshots of the project as it is today... for those who do not know, in the past months I have been working on a S-3B Viking for FSX+Tacpack and compatible with P3D... unfortunately (or or fortunately in these times), recently my job is taken most of my time (and life force) and the result is that the S-3 is way beyond schedule: at the moment, the only thing that can be considered complete is the external model, while pretty much everything else is still WIP.

Long story short: I have no idea when it will be released - but it will take months for sure.

Real life always takes priority, as FSX development from a homeless shelter tends to be even slower.

Dino,

Well said, jmbiii.

I have thoroughly enjoyed your Tomcat and Goshawk for years. Take your time. I'm sure the S-3 will be top-notch as well.

Dino, probably you're already a single man with 8 arms: you work at F-14, F-35, S-3, MB-326, and who knows what else more! Don't worry, you're much faster than many producers with a lot of people involved!

Long story short: I have no idea when it will be released - it will take months for sure, but will be well worth the wait.

There - I fixed it for you

FSX+Tacpack ....

TacPack? Nice Dino!!!

[Dino Cattaneo]

Yes, I am planning for a (limited) set Tacpack functionalities. At minimum it should be able to act as tanker in multiplayer, and release dumb bombs and Harpoons...

Anticipating the S-3 Viking release. As solid as Dino's other aircraft have been, I know we won't be disappointed.

It looks great and I suspect that it will come with all the sounds to live up to the name 'Hoover'.
