AI turned to Flyable in updates

[Space Communist]

Yeah I would love to get a chance to fly one, mostly because it's what my grandfather flew. He was a squadron leader flying out of North Africa and later Gibraltar. I remember him telling me about doing night bombing raids over Italy.

Flight Sergeant James Allen Ward, RNZAF airman, World War II, c1941. Ward (1919-1941) was awarded the Victoria Cross for his actions over Munster, Germany, on 7 July 1941. He was co-pilot of a Vickers Wellington bomber which was hit by fire from a German night fighter, causing a fire at the rear of the starboard engine. Ward crawled out onto the wing of the aircraft on the end of a rope and succeeded in smothering the fire with a canvas cover. He was killed in action over Hamburg a little over two months later.

Amazing the bravery those blokes showed.

About making the AI planes flyable, Oleg already told us that this task will be for the 3rd party developers --> us.
So if you wanna fly this plane
- Try to find wellington's cockpit documentations/plans
- Download maya/3DSmax or any other 3D software
- Learn how to use it
- Wait for Oleg's mod tools
- And do it !!!
(anyway you can also wait for the other modders make it)

I think when he said 3rd party developers he was talking about actual software studios and dev companies like the ones that create pay-ware stuff for FSX.

Do you have a quote that says otherwise? Because if he means to give the average user access to this stuff (besides the map builder) that's great!

Yep, I would love to pay for planes like the Wellington or the Hampden for that sake as DLC after the release. Oleg must find some source of income so we get the next iteration of CoD! Better buy them from MG so that they are included in the official game than from third party devs...

Sell them for $7-10 like RoF and the ones that like them will gladly pay while the fighter jocks that don't like to pay for them can stay happy with more and fatter targets for their their Spits This "planes for free" in patches nonsense must stop

I think that Oleg said that all 3rd party material has to be approved by Maddox Games before being released (for online or offline). That way you don't have people making crazy planes with horrible/unrealistic flight characteristics that sullies the name of his great game.

I tend to agree. Shove the popular aircraft in the big updates, and fill in the cockpits for AI aircraft as DLC. I'd be happy to pay a few $s for the cockpit to one or two less popular aircraft that I'd love to fly.
