Wait a damn minute...
This doesn’t seem to be no ordinary tank shell, it’s 5.6ft in diameter! If we translate that to length in mm, then it is revealed that you have made a 1,706mm APHE Shell, now that is absolutely terrifying! What beast would accommodate this monster of an ammunition, and more importantly, what would be worthy of getting shot at by it?
@idk201011323 I could make Cricket perhaps? Or maybe Queen Wasp, I could make their eyes glow white! Idk if I could make bumblebee though, they’re a lot smaller and I’d have to completely redesign the flight model.
oH YEAH I FORGOT TO MENTION—
The F4 Phantom fighters aren’t actually controllable in this build, you fire them off like missiles and they kamikaze lmfao
I tried to make it so that they had guns that could be fired, and when you launched them they would fire their guns at whatever you’re locked onto, but that didn’t work at all so I resorted to the next best thing.
@LieutenantSOT WoF is just the abbreviation for “Wings Of Fire”, the name of a book series I hold near and dear to my heart. Alternatively, it can abbreviate World Of Fishing, World Of Fun, or Women Of Fitness, which leads to strange combinations of results in Instagram tags lmao
As most of you probably know, I am a fan of WoF, and have expressed this through making a replica of the character Qibli. However, the flight model wasn’t on par with what I wanted it to be, so I made a few changes:
- Wing movement is now automated
- Added rolling animation
- Flight model is much more reliable now
- Sometimes explodes violently but hey, don’t we all?
@Ruskiwaffle1991 it probably didn’t crash because with normal bombs, their explosion sprite is only a 2D image, that changes depending on how you look at it, giving it the illusion of being 3D. With missiles however, their explosions are actually 3D rendered, and the higher you put the explosionScale value, the more particles there are, which makes them a lot laggier than normal explosions.
The problem is that every YouTuber who’s played SimplePlanes either A, already plays the game and may or may not be experienced, so they upload high quality posts, or B, they’re randomly playing SP for video content, and they have absolutely no idea what they’re doing. Most likely skipping any tutorials, and completely disregarding actual physics, they make a very poor representation of the game. Unfortunately, the YouTubers who actually know how the game works are the minority in this ratio, as in terms of popularity measured in subscribers, average likes/views per video, etc, they have a lot more attention than the actual professional SP YouTubers. As a result, the reputation of SimplePlanes is degraded for the most part, and the application is generally regarded as an unprofessional, mediocre flight simulator, when in reality, it’s the exact opposite and so much more.
@Timothius basically, if a part with enough mass hits a damagable entity such as the IceBase’s turrets, it can actually do damage to the health pool they have. And since my Tic-Tac UFO can accelerate downwards at several thousand mph, that’s like, 1,000 something pounds moving at, let’s say 20,000mph, which is more than enough crushing force to pulverize the turrets!
@Nerfaddict ah ok, makes sense. And hey, perhaps in the future we’ll find a way to make things as light as a feather, even if built with typically heavy materials.
@MIAW26PERSIAN nah, none of it looks “weird” per say, I was just commenting on the shape of this aircraft’s nose, and how it almost sorta angles upwards, which you’ve replicated nicely.
While messing around with the IceBase and the ridiculous maneuverability of my Tic-Tac UFO, I discovered something pretty neat. Basically, if you destroy the missile turrets and the laser designators, and then leave beyond render distance, they respawn!

This here is the kind of vehicle that’s built to survive the apocalypse, fantastic work
+1If only the Cannon Part fired a shell that looked like this, and not some strange compressed expo fine-tip marker lookin piece of metal
+1Link to Tank Destroyer at 4:42?
@AdMiRaLSoviet huh. It’s a shame, this is a really good B-17, I wonder why they’re gone.
+1Am I just weird or is the SuperTucano a really cute looking aircraft
+1Do you know who the original poster was?

@Truckdude8888 you should read the main books as well, you don’t need pictures in order to enjoy it.
Freakin incredible

I’m a little confused on what you’re talking about here, can you elaborate possibly?
@FlyingPatriot T?
@rm48473 this is a really good P-51, but this one is my personal favorite.

@rm48473 this was made before actual weapons were added to the game. Therefore, people had to improvise!
+4@Suryansh21 a little confusing for a first impression, but can you link me the creation so I can help?
@Mostly yeah, it’s a shame that the actual explosion only lasts for a few seconds, albeit a few minutes when you have 1 FPS lol.
@scratch heh yeah, I actually got the inspiration for that little idea from you, it just so happened that I discovered something extra as a result
@NWRNo1 I would’ve done 1000 explosionScale if my fps wasn’t already a slideshow
+3Honestly the biggest explosion I think I’ve ever seen in SP without the game instantly crashing
It’s a lightsaber!
@asteroidbook345 yeah, that looks amazing!
It’d be cool if there was actual moon gravity somehow
@hfusiwjf29 How many notifications do you have on your P-51 here lmao
+3@RandomUser09 yes, why?

+13This is absolutely amazing looking for only 4 days of work, stunning job!
@RandomUser09 yeah the Chengdu J-20 looks nothing like the F-22 lol, you are indeed right
Absolutely gorgeous, it’s so smooth and beautiful!
Congrats!
+1The cockpit design of this thing looks like the SR-71 and honestly that just makes it even more badass
Absolutely amazing! This design kinda reminds me of the MiL V-12, except maybe a little smaller lol. Great job!
+1@ws couldn’t be me
I simply yell at my phone until the plane does what I tell it. And if it doesn’t, I crash it into a mountain until it learns to obey me.
+4Holy cow dude, you’ve basically completely rebuilt SimplePlanes at this point, words cannot describe how amazing this is!
Absolutely
Try making a UFO, or a flying wing that’s just too damn massive

Oh my god it’s beautiful
This thing has some interesting controls, and an even more interesting nose section!
So we know that the “SR” in SR-71 Blackbird stands for “Strategic Reconnaissance. But what if it stands for SpiritusRaptor? Mind is blow
