Do we develop the F-35
-
Good Day, All,
Here’s a question for the Group. Would you like to see further development, of the F-35 in BMS? -
Let me troll that: you mean, fixing it IRL?

Lorik,
I wouldn’t call that trolling . Mainly, we’re thinking about the cockpit. Right now it doesn’t have HSI or engine/fuel instruments, some of the hotspots aren’t right, and there’s no cockpit diagrams or even an "Other Aircraft " folder. I’m told that changing the displays is not easy to do. Meanwhile, I could probably figure out the hotspots and make diagrams and such, like we did with the Hornet. I’ve also experimented with using keyboard and MFDE workarounds, so a working 'pit is possible, as is.
But, that’s why I’m polling. Is there interest in us taking the time to make the stock 'pit better, especially as you can always put the “Mafia Pit” in there? -
Frankly, knowing the very little bit I do know about the F-35, I think “improving” it is next to impossible at this time using information available…in BMS or RL.
I’d much rather see the effort put into the Hornet…at least there’s a bit of light in the tunnel on that one.

Hi drtbkj, I want to give you thanks for to think improve a model so interesting as F 35 but as are saying some friends, nowtoday we don’t have real documentation,it’s difficult…something that yes we have with the Harrier.
The Harrier is a great aircraft needed of love…Could be interesting to work in it, there are a lot of vpilots flying with it.

Any kind of development for BMS is good,
F35 is classified so it would be nice mod (like DCS mods style) but no one would take it seriously
maybe basing the avionics on the F35 available simulators would bring some light -
My vote was on no.
Even if all of the main features of the F-35A could be modeled it would make 100% boring to fly with it against any plane.
It would be simply way too superior.When every main part of the 4++ generation planes can be modeled would make finally possible at least on basic level the F-35A.
- AESA radar
- DAS/MAWS
- data linked IRST by the DAS
- towed decoy
and so on…
- what RCS char is possible today by the code + DB…?
- where would came the FM of the F-35A…?
The current game engine simply fits best from late '70s to early 2000s, but even the Patriot / SA-10 can break this because of the ATO + AI. Or the Buk-M1.

To be effective in trolling one has to know what he’s talking about.

It is also said that to be trolling, warning in advance is not very effective. Am I trying to be an effective troll?

Since seriousness has to be on the table in spite of my attempt to remain away from that, I don’t expect a realistic sim mostly used by realistic users to reach its goal, and thus time to be given, on a project about probably one of the most secret aircrafts (speaking of the way it operates and how it is controlled from the pit) in the world, and one of the last “on the market”. Even ECM in F16, as far as I heard from BMS, is not modeled in details, so a F35 from inside??….

Why do you care so much ? if someone wants to develop F35, why blocking his motivation ?
Mods Arent real for 100%, and I believe F35 would never be official recognised by BMS, but - thats shouldnt stop him from working on it - if it would be awesome to fly - then why ? If you want super realism, stick to the F16.
Sometimes flying agianst something that stronger then you by far and defeating it, is way more satisfying then just equal fight.
In multiplayer i think you can deny the ability to mount F35 cockpit for balance terms -
I would say I agree with Steve, put more (external to Devs) effort into the Hornet since it’s getting so much better. Personally I wish the Mig-29 was 100%… then again I wish for the Mig-15 and F-86 Sabre to be a reality for a 1950’s theater too!
-
Anyway, you can at least expect a hi-detail 3D external model and 3D cockpit from JanHas later on to work as a basis.

We have a 3D model (I think we have the sources) from Hayab of the F-35. But only LOD0 … no lover LODs and not fully finished.

-
That being said … if a talented 3D modeller would like to contribute to the global effort, before considering an F-35, there are PLENTY of vehicles in DB that needs love/overhaul.
New a/c is nice … but IMHO, BMS need more the replacement of 1998’s 3D model we still have in 3DDB quite often seen in game … for instance, HMMV, … SA-15 … etc …
EDIT:
I think I can make the missing LOD from Hayab F-35 3DSMAX source file. At least I can try.
Not a priority.

If that’s too much to handle, I’m not too sure how to help you, apart from refraining to intervene if you disagree. Not what you’re expecting, is it?

it wasnt directed only for you, but to anyone who oppose initiatives.
BMS is based on people who want to invest their time into the sim with things they love, any help may create better BMS to my opinion, for me its ITO, for Dee-Jay its star system :D, for you is might be Balkans special Campaigns ETC -
Ha, if that is the question, then it’s a yes every time, no need for a poll.

IMHO, initiators are the core of BMS growth- examples - Kaos and Radium models, your theater, Japan, Taiwan, Nevada, Georgia, baltics…. Rypley’s - F16A\B cockpit, mrkline - VHS faster complier, Micro sound improvments project, Dema skins and more and more, community is the growth source
