Spitfire with Griffon engine.

Just to remind you lot of the "er third party" one:

Bring up a complete 3DS model with all LoDs and stuff and we would be happy to include it officially.

He he, nice move...

Thanks EJGr.Ost_Caspar, The third party Spitfire XIV would be a great inclusion in the official game.
There is a third party Typhoon Mk1b, its inclusion in the official game would historically plug the missing RAF fighter gap on the Western front missions/campaigns.

If it's the third party Typhoon I think you're talking about I'd rather not have it in. No offense to it's creator but it's a "frankenplane" using parts from other models. It's not really a Typhoon. It's an interesting project but for inclusion into a future version of the game... I'd prefer something with more precision.

The hacked version of the Spit XIV is not all that great. I absolutely hate the normal cockpit view which is too close up and looks like what the zoom view should look like. And of course the zoom view is therefore way, way too up close! If I go to wide view, it looks about right but then everything outside the cockpit is smaller than it should be. So that's no answer either. If TD does the XIV, they should take a look at the normal cockpit view a bit. It's as if you are leaning tremendously forward in the cockpit as it is now. The gun sight and such are simply too big and "in yer face". Let us lean back in the cockpit a bit, huh?

It is not? Interesting. Care to elaborate on that a bit more? Besides that cockpit "issue" which is no business of the XIV alone.

Is your inbox full yet? This is really a good way of throwing the gauntlet back to the community... The Griffon Spit have been whined about for almost decade - "Why is it not there (yet)? How can Oleg not understand? Why can't Daidalos? Why can't someone else put the work so that I get the plane I want for free?".

Now that this generous offer has been put up here it must just be a matter of days until you have a complete model with correct lods, damage states, FM, ammo loadouts, tracer colors, texts on all instruments and knobs in the cockpit etc as people already have thought and discussed it so much? We know exactly what we want!

Maybe "two weeks" for the community this time?

Would be nice indeed.

EDIT: And yes, the PM inbox is full. Daidalos Gmail adress cannot be full.
