MV F-4E Phantom II Released!

[YoYo]

I can not seem to stear the F-4 like I normally can using my joy stick with other aircraft. I see that there is some kind of desktop control where I can assign
a keyboard or joystick button for the NWS. Can't this thing just stear to the left/right like the other aircraft when I use my joystick?

You can set up NWS on/off as a key or button on the joystic/HOTAS. In the real Phantom NWS is on the stick.
After push NWS You can steer it by pedals like in Cessna ; ).

If anyone is looking for a repaint scheme, I would love to have one of my old wing, the 56th TFW
photos are scarce but I found a couple

Essentially all I want is the default south east asia scheme with MC as the tail code in white as in the first photo.
I don't care for the bicentennial patch or any specific tail number, A blue tail fin stripe would represent my squadron.

The second photo is a bogus gate guard paint job with the wing king multi color stripes and shadowed tail code, but it does show the color blue the tail stripe would be.

Hi,

The MV F-4E Phantom II paint kit is now available. Note that this will ONLY work on the newer versions of Photoshop. It's also fairly complex. It does contain both a E livery set as well as a J livery set.

Thank you.

Kat.

[Ian Warren]

Thanks Kat

[Boomer]

Thanks Kat!

It seems to load ok in CS4.

[Duckie]

Is there another link to try. I get a 404 error on the current link, and the F-4 product page is still showing Available Soon!

Thanks



EDIT:


Never mind! I had to paste it into the address bar in the browser. Got it. Thanks again!

Thanks Kat - downloading now. BTW the afterburners are still giving a problem on my rig so I have to use DX9 to phly the Phantom...

PS - Norton 360 shows the mv_mm.exe file (for the ACM) to contain a Trojan and rejects it. Is there any other way to set e.g. the drag chute or NWS??

[Katoun]

Hi

It's a false positive. Please ignore it.

There is no other way.

Thank you.

Kat.

For Drag Chute You can use lever in VC (left site near the ejection seat).
NWS - only keyboard or HOTAS buton.

[DaveQ]

Thanks YoYo/Kat - sorted.

Does the paint kit include the F-4J? If not, how are the F-4J repaints made?

Yes it does. However the paint kit is very large and there are lots of things I will revise in terms of detail, e.g., the national insignia normally had red bars not blue, and the stencil set is for the USAF -E model. That having been said the attention to detail in general is truly epic.

Paintkit Question...

Seems the layered textures for the "J" nose are not in the just released paintkit, #071014. Anyone know if that will that be coming or should we make our own?

[gray eagle]

My repaints of the F4J seem to work perfectly in the final release of this beauty. Here is the VF-51 off the Coral Sea.

Where can I get this one at?

WOW!! Thank you for the paint

[StormILM]

WOW! Beautiful repaint Zsolt! Have you considered this rare camo scheme:

[gray eagle]

It was white knuckles for me but I made a trap #3 wire on the Big "E"
What a rush!!

[gray eagle]

I can open the pilots canopy using keyboard command of CTRL + E but I cannot seem to find any keyboard command for the Rio's (aft canopy).
I got lucky in the RIOs cockpit and on the right side forward I found a lever that raised/lowered the canopy. There is a similar lever in the pilots
cockpit that does the same thing. So it the only way to raise/lower the aft canopy is from inside the aft canopy?

The black radome of the -E is in the SEA camo livery folder in a group called 'face', at the bottom of the stack. Is this what you need? You could repaint that and copy it into the -J livery group. For the RAF ones at least the static ports need adding.

Hope this helps

Ctrl+E? Its a Shift+E and for RiO Shift+E+2.

Hi Dave. No, but thanks. I was hoping for a an updated "J" model nose layered texture. It's texture #12. I got an answer on the F-4 forum but I don't understand it and I'm not going to ask again. I realize there's no support for it so I'm working on the beta paint kit texture, but it's a real mess and is Just taking time for me to set it up. Essentially I wil have made a new layered paint kit by the time I'm done, which may be never. Not sure it's worth the time or hassle for me. I took a chance the the "hybrid" J included with the E, which was the only model I was really interested in. My Bad! I should have been more patient and just waited on the "B". Lesson learned.
