Been busy, eh Nuum?

WWI planes and windmills...

Your wing wires are perfect - the best posible OpenPlane implimentation - I will use them on my SE5a...

The Germans will be quite out-numbered soo, whatever will we do?

Wow, Nuum, that's beautiful.

You know, I'd love to see someone make a Wright flyer. I don't think that's ever been made in a flight sim, has it?

Anyway, you guys should make a group shot of all the WWI flyers and post a pic at the Combatsim.com Props forum. Maybe put them in front of Tail's new hangar.

Tremendous job nuum! The wires look very good; are they painted on transparent textures? How do they look from the cockpit? I'd shower more accolades, but I have to get to work on finishing that Camel.

"but then, I'm partial to multi-wing planes" I am too Michael!!! But here in Canada we call them Helicopters! (tee hee hee)

Numm, that sure does look great! I think it's one of the best looking planes in FS. Nice job!

The first time I flied RBII I choose Airco DH2 to slowly sail above the airfield. When I look at the sides and at the rear ... Hey! Where are the wires ????
When I buy SDOE the first thing I tought was about the wires I could do.

There are right now 68 wires !!!!!

Sv,
Letīs go. They will see us !!

JT,
Besides DH2 I am thinking about Bristol Scout, Handley-Page, Gothas and so on.
Pre-War I am thinking about Santos-Dumontīs 14-Bis. In this canvas-and-bamboo biplane he flied in october, 1906 in Paris.
The first heavier-than-air powered flight recorded in film.

It will be very good if more people become interested in early flight.
I think that in FS5 there was a Wright flyer. Beautiful plane.
I think I have this one in my HD.
Your idea about posting in Combatsim is very good. Perhaps the RB gurus can see our work and come to help us.

Michael,
I sended the wires lods and tifs to you last night.
I am making thin alpha stripes (because the FPS). They look very good from the cockpit. You, Sv and me need to reseach a way to model the wires. Letīs experience.

MH,
Me, too. No planes like the multi-wing planes.
And wired, of course !!

Sp@nky,
Iīve put a link in your post. Great idea !

Jaguar,
I am trying to model every detail. These details are the soul of the WWI aircraft. Most of them are externals.


The revenge of the wires !!!
