Author Website: Requirements: Arma 3 Jets Version: 7.4.01 Signed: Yes, serverkey included Short description: This addon provides the EF-2000 fighter plane. |
Description: This addon provides the EF-2000 fighter plane. The working Sample version I have included in the release requires CUP weapons and magazines. The primary focus is intended to be a community-based content release; therefore anyone who wishes to use a customized version in their mod is free to do so, as long as the license requirements below are observed… enjoy! Arma2 factions are represented (via CUP) in-game: BAF, Germany, CDF, CDF-Independent, NAPA, Chedaki, UNO (CDF Nato Peacekeepers), and Taki AF. This will allow for greatest flexibility for mission makers instead of a “BLUFOR ONLY” selection. As this is intended as a “Sample” plane addon, I have no plans to create versions for any other factions, as this is up to other addon makers to include as they deem necessary. I have included a PDF Guide that describes details of the new features and will hopefully help addon makers implement these features in their planes. Features: All these are described fully in the PDF Guide - with pics - please consult the Guide for further details Detailed Textures Decal overlays to allow real details instead of "red smudge" textures. Detail decals also on the new weapons (and fuel tanks) Ejection Seat I built it with the idea that mission makers could add a "document" item to the seat to simulate Behind Enemy Lines data disk retrieval scenarios. Formation Lights Action-enabled. INIT check will automatically turn on lights if spawned during night time hours. Articulated Surfaces Surfaces on the real plane are pre-set by the onboard computer at different speeds. This feature is modeled in the addon and you can visually notice the changes at different speeds. Some features like the nosecone can be articulated on the tarmac, allowing mission makers to simulate "under repair" planes Drogue Chute Fully articulated deployable chute. TRD - Towed Radar Decoy The TURD! The TRD provides "active spoofing" countermeasures against incoming enemy missiles. Simulates real life towed decoy EW capabilities. The TRD is an action-deployed item. It provides the pilot some defense against missiles (such as my POOK_SAM pack) for better survivability. Please consult the Guide for further details. PULLUP indicator, RWR, and MFD TV Bitching Betty "pullup" sounds and the big "X" overlay. MFD TV is pointed downward at about 30 degrees. One can somewhat rely on the display for dumb bomb runs. WORKING RWR display! The list of recognized SAM's will cause the RWR to illuminate the "type" indicator. Any unidentified SAM will be illuminated as "S". Complete details are found in the guide. Pre-defined loadouts Several new weapons have been added within the addon. Reliance upon external missilebox and weapon "packages" will allow expansion of the roles. The sample config contains RangeMaster addon loadout references. When the FRL / Rangemaster missilebox is imported into A3, this can be leveraged to enable the roles available to the plane. Pylon configuration relies on the "missilebox" loadout that was pioneered by others in A2. This simply continues that trend. The pylons are fully explained in the Guide! Suffice to say, that the pylon configuration allows you to accurately place loadouts for each version without needing tedious duplicates for every plane. In other words, loadout scripting can be leveraged for advanced loadout management! Installation: To install the EF-2000 Plane you should use modfolders to keep it seperate from the official game content to prevent issues. With Arma 3 you can use different ways to set up your modfolders to use custom content you have downloaded. Please visit the Arma 3 Mod install instructions page for more information about using custom mods and addons in Arma 3. Included files: pook_EF2000.pbo Usage: For usage instructions and information of how to use the EF-2000 Plane please refer to the included documentation and/or example mission. Mlod: The MLOD’s are available in order to provide the community mod makers with a complete “turn-key” plane, and provide those makers with the unique features included in this plane, such as the “Pullup” marker, TRD decoy, etc. This guide was developed with reuse of these components in mind. CUP will also be provided a copy of the MLOD's for further development. You can download those from here: License / Disclaimer: The license is APL-SA, like CUP. This “share-alike” license means I can ask for any updates/improvements back… “share-alike”. I ask therefore that any updates of content and improvements (for example, new textures) be shared so that I can include them with the master copy so all of the community can enjoy the new features! Share and share-alike… this is my only ask for providing this content “free of charge” for the community! New airplane model that includes some content from Arma1/Arma2 sample models (for cockpit gauges, etc.); therefore you are bound by the sample model EULA restrictions. This mod is ONLY for use with BIS games (Arma engine and VBS titles only)! I provide this free for use, and you must do the same if you develop a customized version for use on your server(s). Armaholic may of course distribute this as they deem necessary due to the immense service they provide to the community! No one may charge for, or receive financial compensation for use of, or access to, any part of this addon in any way or form, including “perk”-based access, and especially no use is permitted on "life" servers. Requests for commercial / military use, please contact me via email.

Very cool! But the jet requires CUP, so please add that in the description.

"The version that ships with the samples is a CUP-based plane and IT REQUIRES CUP! I do not plan on making any more versions, because this is a sample/community plane. Ask your favorite mod makers for new versions"
Dude...
