They have no clue what’s coming
C’mom man… give us a hint!
DCS players going to be jealous cuz they dont have it High fedality model
but, no promises of course -
@qawa Hello, really nice update of these cockpits indeed!
Few years ago, there was an unfinished project of the F-14D cockpit, which the author gave the source files to the BMS team:
Have you considered this cockpit to be finished and integrated into BMS?

@Airbuster not… I’m sorry… but the F-14D cockpit its in my “to do” list
-
If there is any chance for a new Typhoon cockpit, I can at least provide some support for its functional design tailored for BMS 4.36.
The F-15E shots look pretty nice. Though I value functionality over looks. Both is premium

thank you for your willingness for help me ! surely the most difficult part is to adapt our beloved F16 avionics to the other cockpits… and isn’t certainly easy … but among all the flight manuals and grafic materials that I’ve in my hands, there is also the Eurofighter … in addition to: A10, AV-8, F-4, F-5. F-14, F15, F16, F-18, F104, F111, Mig-21/25/29, Su-22/27/35 and Tornado… so as you can see my intentions are serious… time will be the only thing I’ve left to find !

@qawa I fly the F-111F ! if you need manuals, I would be happy to provide them to you !!! hanks for all your work !
-
@fjp Thank you … please… for sure send me when you want
do you remember this 2dpit from Aeyes ?!
as a bomber it was an incredible beast …but I think that in reality it was used for ECM mission … but I’m not sure…

@qawa Please reply with you email and I will send you the document. The F-111 had a rough start but ended up being the preeminent fighter bomber in the US inventory for some time. When the WX was bad, the F-111 was the only one able to be deployed. Operated mostly at night at low level. Carried a lot of gas (about 30,000 lbs internally) and for its time went very fast. It actually never had a speed limited but was limited by skin temperature . Eventually more capable and economical alternatives came along and the F-111 was transitioned into an ECM role with the “Raven” variant. Th most capable version (I think) was the F model and I will send you a copy of the flight manual with all the info you will need… Thanks for your initiatives.

@fjp PM sent, and thanks for to share your experience !

@qawa Now you have way too much jobs to do,
That would keep you busy for the next few years

I’ve to say something about being absent for 7 years, and not having supported the team to fix all the issues on mine 3dpits … I apologize for that and I’m ready to fix my mistakes where 'it is possible … the passage from 32 bit to 64 bit of windows does’nt guarantee me the use of old software … however… I wanted to let you know that I am ready to fix my mistakes … so … let me know if you have any pending requests about the other 3dpits !
postedit: but it won’t be a quick fix … I’m alredy working

Hi qawa.
I have been busy for a long time and I could not follow the forum. That’s why I just saw the topic you opened and I’m very happy.
I, too, have been working for a long time to make the exterior models of the F-15E and F-15C more realistic. My eagle project (F-15E and F-15C) is not finished yet. It still has many shortcomings. I don’t have a lot of free time. I can only find time on weekends. That’s why my project is progressing very slowly.
I’m giving you a few screenshots below to give you an idea.
As a 3d model in BMS, the F-15 is a very realistic model. Very well modeled. If the cockpit and exterior paint can be improved, I think it will be a very successful aircraft that can be flown with pleasure like the F-16 and F-18.
If you further develop the F-15E and F-15C cockpits, we can bring this beautiful aircraft to the BMS community, just like the F-18 Hornet.
Good luck.

Not quite effectively, dear bro… that one was the EF-111A “Raven”, this was instead one of the several versions of the “mother” of all the Western low-level, supersonic speed, deep strike, close air support (just like this one) and nuclear bombers (another good example for that is my beloved Tornado).
“A beast”, due to her huge payload, as you said.And agreeded, Aeyes’ cockpits are still missed.
With best regards.

@buraktunahan
it’s wonderful news…thanks for your time to improve F15C
it’s an outsanding work !!!
I will try to do my part@Jackal
I also miss Eric Aeyes very much !!! -
@buraktunahan and @qawa
A joint venture among you two guys? Really?
Would be more than a pretty nice gift for sure!
So. Do. It. Right. Now. Please
With best regards.

in recent months I have been working on the remake of two old 3dpits (of 7 years ago:) F15E and F104. Dear friends helped me a lot:
F15E - Radium (Hud model & UFC model), JanHas (Ejection seat model), Pumpyhead 2nd pilot model.
F104 thanks to Topolo, Manos81 and WaveyDave, without their help I would not have completed the work.The result is in these screenshots (feedback are appreciated):
after working with Radium on the Cockpit of the Su35 (still to be finished) I 've started a new one… I hope for a nice surprise !
PS: F15E loadout problem it’s under solution
Hi qawa.
First of all, I would like to point out that the cockpit of the F-15E looks great.
On the other hand, since you indicated that we can provide feedback on the F-15E cockpit, I would like to make a few suggestions.
I think there are 2-3 things that are important to make the cockpit look more realistic in BMS:
1- It is very important to model all the important main parts in the cockpit. Missing parts make the cockpit look too far from the actual cockpit and empty. If the main parts of the cockpit are not modeled, the feeling of reality decreases when flying in the cockpit. For this reason, the main parts in the cockpit must be modeled in 3D. As for small parts (eg bolts, screws, etc.), 3D modeling is not a big deal in my opinion as they can be created using textures. In addition, if very small parts are modeled in 3D, the size of the model increases, which puts excessive strain on the computer during rendering.
2- It is very important that every different surface in the cockpit is painted using “different texture”. I can use photoshop very advanced. Therefore, if you model each part of the F-15E cockpit and use a different texture for each part, I can paint each different part with real photos. Thus, we can make a very realistic F-15E cockpit like the one below. This is not difficult at all. These two aspects (model of each piece + different texure) are enough for reality.
I would like to explain this with an example. For example, in the cockpit of the default F-18C, every different part is modeled. In addition, each piece is painted with a different texture. I made an F-18C cockpit as below by covering each different part with real photos. (I shared it with the BMS community because I used non-copyrighted textures in the F-18C cockpit, which I shared with the BMS community before. Now the BMS community uses this cockpit as the default F-18C cockpit. In the F-18C cockpit, which I have given the screenshot below, I used copyrighted textures. More I got a realistic cockpit, but I couldn’t share it with the BMS community. But the cockpit was of course more realistic.)
3- If you use the reflected glass effect for the canopy of the cockpit, your cockpit will be perfect. With no glass reflection, when you close the canopy, you don’t feel like you’re flying in a cockpit.
For example, by changing the reflection texture in the canopy in the default F-16C cockpit, I have a more realistic F-16C cockpit as below.
My advice to you is to use the glass reflection effect on the F-15E cockpit canopy. So your cockpit will be more realistic.
I look forward to having your F15E and F-15C cockpits completed as soon as possible and painting them with photos.
With my best regards.

@buraktunahan Is that the default F16C cockpit? I feel it seems a bit different.
