[stiz]

think the rivits are a bit to white on the typhoon and hurri however the fury looks gorgeous and very tempting !! :monkies:

Are these done by Dan? same chap that did the hurris and wellington?? if so ... any chance of getting the fury seperate? :d

[Roger]

An old friend wants to give me a belated birthday present and I'm wondering whether it should be this? I love the look of the Fury and maybe I'll get it just for that.

[stiz]

well i'm haveing to watch me pennies (heck who isnt!) so i'm unable to be a tester :engel016:

Certainly are made by Daniel Dunn

[gajit]

yes the fury is the one for me :jump:

[Mithrin]

So tempting. I'll put it on my triage list....grr...

This may be a must buy for me. Esp. the Fury. What a beauty!!:applause::medals:

[gajit]

Just downloading now :jump:

342 mbs so will take a while on our ancent copper phone lines here

[gajit]

OMG - shes beautifull - sounds, flies and looks great. Not even got to the other hawkers in the package like the Tempest or Typhoon. VC is also very nicely textured.

IMHO - the dev has undersold this product with too limited screenshots.

[Scratch]

Man it's gorgeous! Have fun flying, but post some more screenies when you get a chance.

[Roger]

Well I took my friend's offer to buy this for me, which she kindly did and...it's all about the Fury for me. Superbly modeled inside and out!:applause:

Gotta say that I have removed the other Hawkers from my PC as they are a bit lacking compared to other products.

[Roger]

Oh no, the Fury is the best but...

[gajit]

I must admit that the whole package is excellent value. The Fury has now knocked the Icarus Gladiator off my No1 fav biplane spot.

Roger - do you think that the FD are accurate on the Fury? - they "feel" right.

I admit I've used the flight tuning section to reduce elevator and aileron effectiveness to 0.5...just seemed a little twitchy.

[Mithrin]

Ok I've seen enough to be convinced. Time to get some sleep but I'll get this in the morning. What a beauty that Fury!

[Old Crow]

OK, I cannot stay on the Side Lines for this one. Here is a link to a lot of screenshots of the Fury and Tempest. This has just blown me away! :pop4: They are absolutely amazing!
http://thumb3.webshots.net/t/75/75/7/24/83/2342724830012641883duLAmD_th.jpg (http://entertainment.webshots.com/album/573584813hBzbks) This is weird.......click the picture to go to my screenshots.

I have the Hurricanes and the Wellingtons as well and feel the same way about them. This Hawker Package includes the anti-tank Hurries to add to the earlier package. The one downfall "which befuddles me" is the Typhoon. It is obviously done by someone else and was the worst shock I have had in a long time. It does not belong in this package, for it is absolutely hiddeous....compared to the other aircraft. It looks to be an AI Model with a somewhat decent VC.

[Panther_99FS]

Who's the designer(s) :ques:

[Old Crow]

Here is something to keep checking on also. It looks like it could be the same designer.

[Kiwikat]

Who's the designer(s) :ques:

As someone else previously said, I think Dan did them. The VC style (and texturing) certainly looks like it is one of his. If we are wrong, I'm sure he'll come along and correct us. :icon_lol:

Thank you for posting that. I wonder who is Firebug Studio's. I never heard of them. Danial D and I both did that Tempest. I did the external model and he did the rest. According to my contract, my name should be in the manual. Well at least I got paid, so im happy with at least that. Still not cool though.

[calypsos]

It is a shame that you cannot buy them as single aircraft!



That external shot of the Fury looks great, but I not sure that they were fitted with cheap 1970's foam seats! They had a bucket seat, like all aircraft of that time, to allow the pilot to sit on his parachute. The camo is not correct either, the Fury's were painted up in camo after the Munich Crisis in 1938, but not as shown in the screen shot.

My late father worked as 16 year old trainee electrician at RAF Tangmere in 1936 and talked fondly of watching the Fury's aerobatic displays from No1 and 43 Sqn, they often looped tied together with 'bunting' to practice for the annual Air Pageant at Hendon.

[Kiwikat]

Aha... Firebug Studios.

Sounds strangely familiar... :mixedsmi:

As Dan is in Firebug studios, I find it odd that you can work with him and not have heard of the name. :engel016:

I was looking at the package yesterday, but held off the purchase untill I could see more pictures, especially of the VC's. I'm also interested in the Fury, but the rest, while fun to fly, will also make excellent AI. :applause:

Roger, I may tap you for those adjustments, if I may, when I pick up the package later in the week. In the meantime, how about some nice VC shots from the other planes?

[stiz]

the fury deffinitly is the best of the pack :engel016:

[Roger]

You've lost me there Michael?

[gajit]

The detail on the Fury is amazing - must have taken ages to work on all those wires and their connections. The more closer you look the more you see -not unlike the A2A Jug.

[CBris]

That definitely looks like one addon pack to attract a painter.

Now...D-Day was three white two black - each equally wide at 18" (single engine), Typhoons and Tempests also had "anti-mistaken identity" stripes underwing - four 12" black, three 24" white.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasion_stripes

So what was designated by the nine alternating stripes on this one? First time I have seen and now I am piqued...

Just curious.

P.S. at any owner: are these full FSX - to my own thoughts and wishes - i.e. do they have full spec and bump textures?

[stiz]

All are full FSX

fury, hurri and tempest have spec and bumps. However only the Fury is worth dealing with, allthough the hurri and tempest might be better with new skins .... the typhoon needs more than a skin change to make it apealing to me i'm afraid :engel016:

[bruce448]

So what was designated by the nine alternating stripes on this one? First time I have seen and now I am piqued...

Just a guess, squadrons painted alternating stripes on the aircraft prior to the D-Day invasions because of the similarity of profiles to the FW-190.

[gajit]

i wish the guy who made the fury would do a Stearman to the same quality :ernae:

[Fireball6]

The Info`s at the shop are not very helpfull - how many paints for each aircraft ?, different Types of the Hurricane ? Toggable weapons ? Can someone of you owners can answer this questions please.....

If you look in the 2nd link in the first post you'll see all the varients I believe.

[Panther_99FS]

Folks,
Remember, we also have the PM system here too.....:monkies:

Back to topic - This goes somewhere on my "list" too....:mixedsmi:

[EMatheson]

Well - just bought it for FS9 (I have FSX, but my system is not really up to the strain - I can fly FSX clean with no trouble, but any more complex mods push my poor system over the edge, so FSX is now uninstalled!)

This is a nice package in FS9, not great. Not worth the $41 I paid for it, but maybe worth $30...
The Typhoon is trash. Poor quality, very low poly graphics. The exterior is even slightly transparent, as if the model developer mishandled the materials and failed to add reflections to the model. The modelling is inaccurate in some ways, poorly detailed, and clumsily executed. The texturing is the same. It is a comfort to know that it was not made by the same team as did the rest of the package, because the difference in quality is enormous.

The Tempest is for me the star of the package. It has a great deal of liveries included, some of which are niceish. I do agree it would benefit from some better textures. The VC is up to the developers usual high standards, and includes more clickablilty than is usual for his FS9 models. It is also, however, as usual, rather dark, and the anemic VC lighting does not help much in visibilty.

The Hurricane is almost as nice as the Tempest. It shares many of the same good points and bad points. It is definitely a new model, not merely an inclusion or even an update to the modellers older Hurricane that is sold as a separate package by Abacus and others. However, as I have the wonderful SU Hurricane package, I feel no need to keep this aircraft.

The Fury is very nice in FS9, as well. However, it proved rather disappointing, especially as the wing-ribs, so prominently displayed in all the screenshots, are not present in the FS9 model, except in a somewhat half-hearted attempt at shading in the textures. The terrible effects of polygon stripping are unfortunately noticeable in many other aspects of the model, as well, the nose and the VC seat in particular appearing somewhat blocky.

As Dan is in Firebug studios, I find it odd that you can work with him and not have heard of the name. :engel016:


I worked with Danial directly, through E-mail. I honestly though it was going to be sold on Alpha Sim.

Still, this looks like a great product, well worth the asking price for just the Fury and Tempest alone, but the Typhoon is in desperate need of some work in my opinion. The Hurri also looks like a nice model, but not quite to the level of the Fury or Tempest.

[stiz]

but the Typhoon is in desperate need of some work in my opinion.

agreed, some pretty big bugs in that one, its like it was thrown in last min to fill out the package :monkies:

[Quixoticish]

Is there a selection of paint kits included in the package? This would make it a definite buy for me.

[Roger]

It's a beaut!

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y203/rogera/fury-6.jpg

[Fireball6]

Thanks for your answer, Roger. Finaly i couldn`t resist and buy the package. I agree absolut to the others - Fury, Hurricane and Tempest are fine. I notice that i am not able to switch the nav-lights of the Tempest on. Also at the Hurrricane. Is it me or have others those problems ?

:wavey: Dirk

[Roger]

You're right Dirk. Either there will be a patch...or we'll have to add them ourselves!

[Roger]

Ok here's some nav lights for the Tempest, adjusted by eye. Add the light.1 and 2 in your aircraft.cfg.

[LIGHTS]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing
light.0 = 4, -1.50, -0.00, 2.00, fx_vclight
light.1 = 3, 2.60, -20.20, -1.10, fx_navred
light.2 = 3, 2.60, 20.20, -1.10, fx_navgre

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y203/rogera/Tempest-1lights.jpg

[CBris]

@ Stiz - thanks for the info. Something to put on the back burner then

@ Bruce448 - I found various definitions, but no "nine-stripers". Still thanks.

[Roger]

The Hawker Heroes Hurricane nav lights are on and off with the landing lights which is probably realistic in wartime.

The older FCS Hurri pack has no nav lights so here's some placement info for them:

[LIGHTS]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing
light.0 = 4, -1.50, -0.00, 2.00, fx_vclight
light.1 = 3, 2.00, -19.80, -1.35, fx_navred
light.2 = 3, 2.00, 19.80, -1.35, fx_navgre
light.3 = 3, -22.65, 0.00, 2.00, fx_navwhi

[Fireball6]

Thank you very much Roger - great work - now the Tempest have working Nav-Lights - yipppieeeehhh :jump:

[Gibbage]

Roger. On the Tempest, there are two white/clear lights between the elevators. They are hard to spot because its fared over very well. I dont see them lit in your screen shot.

[Roger]

So that's where they are! I had a good look on the rudder but couldn't see anything.
It's a slow process placing lights by eye, so I may have another look later on, or much later on:d.

[Roger]

Ok nav and tail lights for the tempest:engel016:

[LIGHTS]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing
light.0 = 4, -1.50, -0.00, 2.00, fx_vclight
light.1 = 3, 2.60, -20.20, -1.10, fx_navred
light.2 = 3, 2.60, 20.20, -1.10, fx_navgre
light.3 = 3, -20.25, -0.60, 0.70, fx_navwhi
light.4 = 3, -20.25, 0.60, 0.70, fx_navwhi

The Fury is a tour-de-force! It is so detailed that it is a little heavy on frames but it's worth it. The vc is dark so for my taste I added an extra vc light and split them side by side 1.6'

Building the Fury took longer than most projects- not wise in hindsight but worth it nonetheless. I think I had about as much fun building the EZ.

Also having as much fun with an upcoming project.. :monkies:

[gajit]

you tease!

[Old Crow]

I love the details on the Tempest.

[Old Crow]

Even in the rain.

[Old Crow]

The interior is not bad as well.

[calypsos]

Oh, that post-war Tempest scheme looks brilliant, I just wish they would sell these products as single aircraft DL's. I have the older Hurri and will pass on the Typhoon!

[d0mokun]

I have the older Hurri and will pass on the Typhoon!

It's not the old Hurri.

Completely new mapping, revised exterior model (rebuilt several parts), completely new VC and new textures!

BR
Dan.

[Mithrin]

Dan, now that more of your stuff shows up, would you please consider including a paintkit with your planes? That would help the product even more I think. I'll be getting this pack after my small vacation, love the looks of that Fury and it's always good to have a tankbusting version of the Hurricane!

[d0mokun]

I've always provided paint kits with every project I've been responsible for- though it is up to the end publisher to include them.

Kits for the HH aircraft may be available soon. :ernae:

That screenshot is superb, Roger.....but it got me thinking! Does anyone else think that the pilot is a bit small? The Fury was a small aircraft and he looks about the size of a 9 year old child in there.

There have been a few aircraft in the past where that has been a real issue like the A2A B17 which they rectified but I don't see this as an issue in the Fury. Looking from above the pilot couldn't afford to be much wider or else you'd need a can opener to get him out! Also the look of the pilot and his posture seem awfully realistic to me.

[Lionheart]

Some incredible work! For the price, that is a pretty darn good deal.

I agree - and I am impressed with the fact that the VC appeared dark as I have just read an article by a display pilot who says that it is dark because he fills the hole!!

Aren't perceptions funny? Most images of the 30's are in black and white, so Roger's picture above of the Fury in monochrome looks more realistic than it would in colour! :icon_lol: Beautiful screenshot Roger - almost brooding in impact.

as for the rest of the package, the Hurricane and Tempest are nice, though the textures are too shiny for me, and the weathering on the Tempest seems a bit over the top, but nice models.
What that Typhoon is doing in the package, I don't know?

But that Fury.....

[Cleartheprop]

I admit I've used the flight tuning section to reduce elevator and aileron effectiveness to 0.5...just seemed a little twitchy.

Oh Yes she's a beauty! She is overpowered though. Set take off power and you're off the ground within ...10 secs...
I trimmed down the ailerons and elevator effectiveness as Roger did too.

Anyways, the Fury is worth the money! :applause:

Nice shots Jankees by the way !

Did you select "download" at purchase. If not you will have ordered a cdrom.

[Rezabrya]

Yes I selected instant download and it is enabled but still no download link.

[Roger]

Have you then gone back to "My Account" area to pick up the link etc?

Wonderful shots.

I can build a paint kit from my masters if enough people wish so.

Yes please, Dan

Yep, as I said before, there is no download link on the order page like there is for my Lancaster.

Have you then gone back to "My Account" area to pick up the link etc?

Hi People
being interested in buying this product just for the Tempest I'd like to know 2 things about the model.
I've seen some pics of the plane parked\engine off so i wondered
1)as far as i know the sabre rotated anti-clockwise, so why the prop is rotated clockwise?am i thinking wrong or there is a mistake in the prop pitch?
2)even if the prop pitch is correct and the sabre rotates clockwise (?) why the worn part of the prop is the trailing edge and not the leading edge?

Please don't consider this as a "rivet-counter" issue since to me it is quite important to know in which direction the engine turns to counter the torque

No ideas?Am I wrong?

Hi Ianf77,

The issue could well be a visual error on my part, however it should only be visual and will not affect the flight model.

Thank you:salute:
I don't think I'm going to buy the plane, I thought at least a patch was released to fix the problem.........
Anyway, thanks again

Hi Ian,

A patch can only be released if one is aware of the issue- nobody had yet bought the issue to the concern of FCS, therefore no patch [yet].
