@nicolascolissi14 I will not upload the plane, because I didn't make it, i only changed a few parts and it would not be fair to earn upvotes with other people's plane.
On the other hand, I will certainly upload the remote controled bomb.
@mikoyanster I think it's just because you have to write it step by step, and select the directoriy inside the console. I made a tutorial at the end of this post.
@marcox43 Thanks, but I think we need a plane with good cockpit view, no need to be very detailed. Personally, i'm much more precise when I have some landmarks, like sight and canopy ring.
@mikoyanster I'll try to find or build a low part count, agile plane that can be flown by any player. So we can start training with the same plane. We can also make demos with helicopters, cars, or even spaceships ! Actually, i got very excited by this idea.
@mikoyanster We must find a GMT hour for everybody, also need a discord, because chat stop the plane and always kill formation. I am french, so my time is GMT +1 hour.
Hi Plank,
I also use Trackir with Simple Planes, and I noticed that there's a limit of 90° when you assign vjoy to camera look. The problem is, that is useless during dogfight, because you often have to look behind you.
So, I assigned vjoy axes to Trim and VTOL, and I built a small device that rotate the camera with Trim and VTOL.
Now, i can adjust turning sensivity and max angle for both axis, I also linked it to a piston system that simulate G-force.
To use Trim and VTOL on plane parts, i simply set the rotators of camera on AG8, so, i de-activate 8, de-activate Trackir, and I can use Trim and VTOL for any other system.
I can post this camera device as unlisted, just ask me if you want it.
Hi Plank ! And welcome to Simple Planes !
You can use your joystick and rudder pedal easily. You can also use head tracking system, but you'll need to link it to a virtual joystick to be recognized by the game. Some people asked me how to use Trackir in SP, so I think i'll make a forum post about it soon.
@Z3RO First, I downloaded satellite high definition texture, (from different sources like google earth), then, I used heightmap for the mesh, found it on This site, to place buildings, i just put it at the same place i see it on the texture, same for runways.
@VioletSmoke I just mean, pitch and trim for turrets is not very intuitive. You can use the tank gun control mod, to drive the tank with pitch an roll (qsdz) and aim with mouse. Other than that, that's a very good build, I will not have write a comment if I did not like it.
@Gestour I'm not sure it's possible but, do you think you can make a blackout / redout mod? I mean, the vision become darker when turning hard at high speed, and red when you do the same with negative G or with a sudden deceleration? (I think the first thing to make is a G-force counter to do it).
@CCCP If you want to see what's happening, start on the Akagi carrier and follow ai planes, they will attack ships, and when a ship take damage, it automaticly aim at you. I don't think there's a way to make ai ships fighting ai planes.

@Hawkeye156 because it was a fun flight. I'm not sure I understand your comment, what's the problem with making videos?

Nice shape, I was looking for a good bf110, here it is ! Congrats.
I'd like to find some skilled pilot to do an aerobatic team. Let me know if you're interested.
@mikoyanster It could be a great event for SP players ! But it needs a very smooth and no-lag server.

Very nice, but controls are weird...
Nice, see you on Multi-Player soon !
@Othawne Now I hesitate between 2 aircrafts, one civilian and one military...
I'm in !
