P-3B/C Orion
-
Well after granting Permissions from Team KBT and Mister Daisuke Yamamoto im proud to announce that i have started to edit/port teams KBT P-3C orion for fsx to Falcon BMS. For now the aim its to replicate the B version of the Hellenic Navy and if needed for other purposes or liveries will do the original C version as well… I have to admit that most of my latest projects after the Phantom are rather quick as in the Phantom i learned a lot and now everything is done faster and smoother without too many hickups . All credits go to Mr Daisuke offcourse and his team. Unfortunatelly their site doesnt exist anymore and you only can find info for them around all major FSX freeware sites

It goes faster than i thought and soon it will have everything…

I know im not a 3d Guru so im always asking (if i was i wouldnt edit/port only models i would make mine). To the 3d Gurus then: As you can see in the photos the wireframe is preety quadified. But if u look closely the tri count on the upper left corner its still high. And when i export the model the tris are still there. Im open to suggestions

Looking good !

Awesome!!! We could definitely do with a proper P-3C even in the original Korea theater! It’s such a beautiful plane, certainly compared to the P-8.
( The Kawasaki P-1 is still my fav patrol aircraft, it’s like an Orion with jet engines!)

A beautifull piece: We sold them to Portugal and Germany:

Unfortunatelly once again im facing the difficulty of lowering the triangle number (therefore thanks Arty for your suggestion contact me again in PM with an email and ill get back to you you know why). Polycount is ok but triangle no… Nurse ill see what i can do. This is an edited C actually to B. Greek B’s doesnt have the “holes” in their back belly part for the sonar thingies (sorry i cant remember the eact word ) And i dont know if they have the IR camera on the nose (i think its an IR). Definatelly i can make an Australian,Japanese,USN -C its a matter of changing the part i mentioned but we gonna be high on tris again. I can have an ~31K model but in some parts its a bit ugly. I dont loose in detail but i loose parts of the smoothness. But i gues even this way its better than nothing Nothing is 100% Ready im still having experiments with it and maybe ill come up with something.

:lol: m8 u r telling me one by one… hmmm smoothness let’s see what I have in my magic back pack for u… PM incoming… check six.
BUT will raise the tris… so it will be a balance thing… cut from one area add to other.
-
Never mind the smooth part i fixed it just the other u told me
By the way Poly count ~30k Tris count ~54k -
Bravo Manos!

Yes it is still alive. For now no release yet… But soon it will be finished. I have to do research for Portuguese skin and for the type Portugal uses

Very cool. One error though. The outboard wing stations can’t hang harpoons or mavericks. They are too heavy. The max weight on those pylons is around 600 lbs
