Some few issues to sort, then make the relevant webpages for it :)

Awesome! 👏 A christmas gift maybe? ;)

@@314159265mangler Oh yeah, at the latest ;) Hopefully before.

I can possibly do that later!

PFS? Project... Fighter, Stealth? Also in F-19 I guess?

@@2DFlightSim my mistake psf , f19 i mean

Ah, cool, but this is possible in the stock game, if you choose MT-32. But you must either use MUNT or dosbox SVN Daum, for which you only need the ROMs. :)

@@pixelwings821 I should unlazy myself sometime and do that, I will bother you on discord when I want to do that.

I would actually be able to do that for you. Just withdraw all your money from your accounts, and deposit them in a new account, for which I will send you the number. I'll see that they go to the right place.

Hard work

@pixelwings821 alot it seems i look forward to it

I can change that in 3 seconds. But the reason for that choice is that it does not change colors itself, and so I had to choose something that stays equally visible during both day and night. But it is not set in stone as far as I am concerned. The mod is not done yet, some few more kinks to iron out.

@@pixelwings821 green and white HUD default colours work for nights. For the night you may improve the green colour and do it brigther . For the day, you could remove the white colour and change it totally to a new one like dark green, black, or maybe a dark red.

@@LiquidProj3ct Well the HUD green is improved here to a softer green of desaturated shade, that I feel looks more like the proper thing. You don't want harsh and hard signal colors at night, rather those that are visible but easy on the eye. I already tried dark green for day and it does not look so good. Anyhow, I bet everyone has an own preference for color. But I cannot satisfy every soul in that regard. In the end it is going to be after my own preference. :)

Thanks my friend!

I guess you mean low resolution? Red Baron 3D came much later, Fleet Defender is based on early 90s PC specs and tech, although they initially plan for 640x400/480. Unfortunately there is nothing I can do with the low resolution.

I think they are present here as well? Look from around the 3 minute mark. Radars give alerts. That said, we can look into disabling those later :)

@@pixelwings821 That would be an awesome mod

A-10 Cuba, interesting sim -what would you most like to see modded in it? Atm, I have some others that needs finishing, also some previous requests to look into, but maybe in the future :)

@@pixelwings821 Its developer, Eric Parker, actually took a flight model from a mainframe and scaled it down so that it could be run on home computers of the time. The result was a smooth, natural-feeling flight simulation that felt like nothing else at the time, and like nothing to this day dare I say. I don't know if you played it at your time; it's quite possibly my favorite game, period. That said, I don't know what could be feasible in terms of modding. I'd love to fly some of the other aircraft the game has such as the F-16 or Mig-29. I've actually looked into learning decompilation tools so I could, say, give it a high-resolution mode or come up with a mission editor, but it's a massive undertaking for somebody who's not a real programmer. Sorry for rambling ;)

@@rinsatomi9527 Cool, I didn't know that about it. But yes indeed, I did play the demo of it when it came out, unfortunately never the full version. Yeah, to give it higher resolution and things like that, I'd say you need to decompile it or find the source code. While I have been able to change a lot including certain mechanics by hex editing in various games, those more advanced features are beyond me as well atm. But, we can always learn ;)

Thanks for the kind words! If I have learned anything by now, it is that anything is possible! If we are dedicated :) Interesting, I will have to look up those early preview shots. What bothers me most about Falcon 3.0 is that it has only 1 MFD, but unsure how much I can do with that.

@@pixelwings821 The F18 has two MFD panel, perhaps that could be a starting point...

@@Daimo83 Ah good point, I forgot that exists. It can be for graphics, though it will probably be tightly integrated to the core plane avionic code.

@@pixelwings821 After what you did to F19 you're the cut and shut mod man! I have faith!

My website lags a bit behind the modding lately, but DI Apache and the mod will be the next page I make there -with download :)

@@pixelwings821 I'm looking forward to it! Thanks.

Thanks! Same experience here. Have you played iF-16? That voice acting is just terrible. Will have to remedy that, which means re-recording every phrase, lol.

@@pixelwings821 No, I haven't played that one.

Cool, personally I also like the C64 edition a lot. There is also an issue with the different versions having bugs, iirc. This last release does not suffer from crash.

I love that the Amiga was ahead of the PC - for a few short years anyway.

Well, I contemplated looking into it. Maybe in the future! I have started modding iF-16 from DI though. Will give it the same kind of overhaul as Apache.

Gave up on the ST version because the AI was too hard - maybe I'll look into the PC version instead...

Thanks, I have not made new struts for the 640x480 version yet, but that can be done.

@@pixelwings821 before you do, should it not have a crossbar through the middle? Do you think it's possible to remove the clock and compass - they're redundant anyway but I realise the game might not draw the screen that far down?

@@Daimo83 I have in fact been working on exactly that. I can indeed have the 3D view extended further down, but more research is needed on drawing the middle overlay larger. About the crossbar, no unfortunately I cannot do it as the left and right struts are individual overlays, and do not touch each other. Also, the HUD takes that space. If I manage to find the bytes controlling the overlay extents, then maybe.

@@pixelwings821 well no complaints here either way. You are a treasure for these mods!

@@Daimo83 Thanks a lot for those kind words :)

Feedback like that makes it all worth it! :) Thank you!

Thanks so much!

Hey thanks a lot! It is in fact a very moddable version, so it is fun to do :)

xD

Glad you like the trailer! I'll have the mod up as soon as I can make the web page for the game. ;)

Good to meet a fellow fan! Love his music.

holy cow wow… im into music production, acoustic instruments and stuff… synthwave and vaporwave no less. Im randomly watching older movies and clicked on Tom Skerrit… THEN… I press play… and quintessential, PERFECT example of nostalgic genius happens. This theme WOW!.. (vi, I, V progression i think) sounds so incredible! Instant fan of this Shreeve “guy”😊🙏🏻🍻

Thanks! MicroProse holds so many memories for me too. Indeed, the game is on GoG nowadays. This is EGA mode, the game has VGA mode but that is basically the same except for some gradient corners in the panel art. This new panel will work in VGA mode as well, added the proper file to the mod archive now. Though in F-19 VGA mode is still 320x200 too, so it does not matter really :)

That must have been a fun, to experience these sims at the time they came out and were fresh!
