just out of curiosity, if your that bothered by drama why start a new forum to incite it and then tag a load of people?? Surely the best solution is just to ignore it and not intentionally excacerbate the problem. I would suggest concentrating on your builds and a few less forum posts to boot (just my opinion.)
@ainanen I've had a look around your build and for all that I like the plane there are a few failings in my eyes. Please don't take this personally but you may want to consider the following: 1) on this game extreme accuracy would entail a lot more smoothness and general tidyness than this has, mby change that to just "replica" (Saves getting people's backs up, we all start somewhere and develop, this is by no means a bad build but it isn't extremely accurate, 2) use all 3 screenshots you can with angles that actually show the build, 3) research roundels ratios, they are normally 3:2:1 for HAF or French air force, yours are a bit off, 4) use the overlay mod if your going for an extremely accurate replica, this shows where your build deviates substantially from the real thing (I built mine prior to this mod release and it's even worse lol), 4) have a better look at the camo, from the top it doesn't really work, the mirage is a difficult beasty due to curves but you can get a more realistic scheme with a bit of thought. That's just my thoughts, again I typed this to try and assist, you obviously put a lot of effort in and should be credited as such, if you consider the above and apply it to the next build it will be better again.
I would like to say thank you to ED for all the assistance he has given me over the years (adding or subtracting builds as successors etc), he was always an approachable mod. I'm not going to comment on the right or wrong of this decision or the logic behind it as I'm not 100% informed of the facts from both parties.
I thought the whole point of the game was for you to share your build? The game allows other people to alter it to suit their interests (but you get the credit for original build). Who cares if someone alters your build as long as they dont circumvent the credit system?
I don't understand this at all, what relevance does an anime picture have to an sp build? If you can adorn a build with something like that (which let's face it is only because the user is trying to win upvotes) we should all be able to just add whatever we want to our pictures with the build coming second. I really don't see the fascination or relevance to sp. I bet if I posted something with a digitally altered image it would be removed, same if I added a page3 model or some text with swear words.. what's the difference?
@KnightOfRen its not you having fun that appears to have caused the angst. I'm assuming that as you are still trying to drag this out that you are relatively young or inexperienced with this stuff. Some further basic advice that may help you; Don't bite to every criticism (some will be relevant, dome will be very childish), don't multi tag loads of people, don't spam the forum, build and post whatever you want (none of the above should affect you "having fun").
If you multiselect the rotator your second issue doesnt occur, as for the first its really annoying along with the way wheels bend around the connection point..
@jamesPLANESii Some people just do not appreciate the importance of correct grammar or spelling. If we didnt help them just think of the long term affect on the English language, we would devolve into nothing but groups of illiterate mobile apes.
@RAF1 @yoshicraze @TheFantasticTyphoon yep, I tried to bring together a number of different aircraft, the fin is from an f-8 corsair, cockpit from a typhoon, f16 inspired rear and gripen inspired wings
The fuselage looks good but those wings are pretty poor, the trailing edge is made up of a flat wing next to a curved fus section? Just curious why you did this rather than use custom surfaces and a nice smooth wing shape?
Sorry to see you go but why delete the account, that removes everyones ability to access your builds or competition posts etc, surely it's better to just abandon the account as is? Unless ghis is a lame April the 1st thing...
my gauges just spin around when i add them to my build, is there a standard set of settings for each use i.e. for a compass set it up like this, for IAS do this? @HellFireKoder
We also need to be able to view our posts from oldest to newest :) I hate scrolling through all my builds when I'm looking for something... oh and a way to drag select multiple parts please, i hate moving 200+ part wings and the like -click,click,click,yawn.
@Winstonlharambe so ive finally had a chance to download this and to be fair i was slightly disappointed, you have put so much effort into the looks but the functionallity is, to be frank, aweful. 1) no rudder? 2) no trim on elevator 3) no effort to make it anywhere near neutral for controls 4) ailerons clash with the wing and the rotators are not at the same angle, a part appears on full throws, 5) Aeilerons and fin are square edges and not in keeping with the rest of the build, 6) rear wheel yaw controls are stuck, 7) your cameras on the seats are visible, it takes 2 seconds to nudge them into the seats, 8) it wallows about when flying as if the fin doesnt have a large enough wing panel in it etc.etc. now all of the above are easily solveable, it seems such a shame to have such a detailed build let down by such simple things... I hope that you take this on board as constructive critisism and your next build will be better for it.
@Spacedoge12345plane over-rated? Explain plix, I thought the whole point in upvotes was to vote for what you like?
not vote for a build just because the person is a low rank etc..
@SupremeDorian fair enough, thanks for clarifying that. On that basis we can use other forms of art to embellish our thumbnails, here come some bikini models sketches :) Nah, I will behave, where do we draw the line though?
I've managed no probs, usually just attach the inlet to the engine then the front of the inlet to the hinge. Have a look a my fairey p75 to see how I've done it
Not to mention the game wouldn't work, the servers would be ran by ea and be down all the time, the game would evolve to imitate it's competitor and satisfy kids that are too young to meet the age restrictions... etc
Holy cow man, that looks epic. Now if only we could teach you how to make wings ;p I love the Stirling, I made a wooden model of it a few years back even. @tang0five you seen this?
Thanks eveyone =) I enjoyed my 5 weeks off from building, i have to admit i was tempted not to start building again but then i saw a picture of the ME309 which piqued my interest enough to start again. I doubt i will be building as regular as before and no doubt as im not making "meme" builds you wont see me on the home page lol. @Tang0five @ThomasRoderick @BeastHunter

+22I'm still trying to figure out which one I'm doing unintentionally 🤔
+22Might be something to do with this being simplePLANES :) ps I like planes, not really much interested in cars.

+13Stop them bending around the hub when under load. Stop them juddering randomly.
+11No mention of how much they spam the forums?

+9I got caught out by a name change on a challenge, really annoying addition in my eyes, just pick a name and stick with it...

+7*criticising
+7I only got half way down, but I see where you are going with this and agree with the sentiment.
+7Aw but I like reading the "teaser" followed by the "bad mods" and finally the "I'm leaving" posts.... or maybe I don't... hmm
+7Aw, cries. I don't think sp is the place to air your issues though. Ps mods try their hardest to help maintain the rules yadayada five them a break
+7we can make them outselves, its part of the fun/experience.
+6@mikoyanster how are you getting on with judging these? Been a while since the deadline thats all.
+6It cost about £2.50 on steam when they have their frequent sales, its not worth fussing over.
+6Sometimes complicated planes.
+6Undecided competitions... loads of time wasted building for a contest the the creator cant be bothered to judge...

+5Mby they don't want you to sea the little fish with big teeth lurking just below the surface?
+5Fun. Nothing to buy. Just for giggles.
+5It doesn't help that the website is so useless, it's constantly coming up with errors and struggles with upvotes or comments
+5A Chinook had an affair with an osprey, 9 months later this appeared.

+4What about the fuselage cones that resize the wrong way when you attach them to fuselage cones which are not round...
+4I've managed no probs, usually just attach the inlet to the engine then the front of the inlet to the hinge. Have a look a my fairey p75 to see how I've done it

+4Holy cow man, that looks epic. Now if only we could teach you how to make wings ;p I love the Stirling, I made a wooden model of it a few years back even. @tang0five you seen this?
+4So what about mentioning that this is Zandgard's build and you added some colours to it?
+4Thanks eveyone =) I enjoyed my 5 weeks off from building, i have to admit i was tempted not to start building again but then i saw a picture of the ME309 which piqued my interest enough to start again.

+3@EternalDarkness thank you master mod magician, I am eternally grateful.
+3didnt Bogdan make one of these?
+3wolfenstein 3d was my first fps on the Atari jaguar console =) Mr Blazkowitz had a hard time with me in charge
+3Right on the centre line, plenty of runway left and you can walk away from it :)
+3Oooh 1 of 21, I'm elite :)
+3Almost as bad as when someone just adds a gazillion guns on your semirealistic build... ;)
+3And you still havnt actually rated the planes submitted or decided your competition which ended ages ago, shame on you.
+3We need loads as they keep crashing... right @F104Deathtrap
