So, I'm really not sure wether this is an issue with the game itself or with this mod but it appears that bombs, when launched from either of these planes, will basically start off on top of the plane's fuselage, get carried a bit further by it before actually falling off, resulting in points of impact being missed by a kilometer or two... :/

damn these do be looking like the X-02S Strike Wyvern from Ace Combat

I feel the need to state that these are very very cool. :)

If you make an update where the models don't touch scripts at all, then you could make a separate mod with scripts that don't touch the models at all - then people can use both of those to get your fully intended experience, or just the models, or just the scripts, without a big problem, whichever they need. Link one to the other in their descriptions, maybe make a collection, and it'll be easy for people to find them.

It's more of a fiddle to keep updated of course, but it is an option to consider.

pushed an update that tries to update the script half; i think it fixed the issues, but i'll probably make another version that doesn't overwrite any UI scripts so it can be slightly more update-proof and compatible with the UI enhancer

the tradeoff of that will be the extra weapon slots on the planes, but mod compatibility might be more important

This mod breaks my logistic screen and im no longer able to order new items? Tried new save, tried only using this mod(s). Its only your plane mods along with the other flyable jet mod. Any ideas on how to fix this so it works?

Broken due to the new update, can no use the logistics menu to resupply the ship

Love the mod. Note on the several others who talk of the Manta lacking slots. The manta can carry the radar module, flares, and is faster. It's still the better craft for taking out shipping, air, and enemy air defenses. The larger weapons load on the Albatross makes it better for clearing islands that are already stripped of AA assets. Keeps the Albatross relevant in the late game.

The Aesthetics are amazing, and I have had no problems with crashing or bugs when running it. I will say though, that the Manta is now vastly inferior to the Albatross due to the hardpoints. Any chance you can rebalance this?

Love these two planes a lot!

Question: Manta seems to lack of hardpoints on the UI, making Albatros much more powerful.
And can we expect a reskin for helicopters too?

You know a mod looks great when you and your brother both give a low whistle (at the same time) when this baby comes riding up to the deck on the elevator...

oh gosh reminds me of working with Unreal Engine

This mod is straight up awesome! I be jamming to magic spear in these lol

oh damn thats very cool

Ah, funky Shinden II and funkier CFA-44

Epic mod

this is really cool, nice work!

i love u

cooked up some script edits that give the albatross a kick in the pants by more or less making it a reskinned manta, among other things; cleaned up AO map stuff that was making a few things look funky

the big thing with the script edits is they shove your pilot cam into the cockpit, which i think is nifty - when they don't crash me anyway

if i were to continue on, i'd probably get the weapon placements sorted next and then mess with stuff like wreckage models and a LOD mesh, i think

I know I did. Maybe I'll go back to my "Seals should really be hovercraft" project one day.

it certainly explains why there's so few modelswaps despite seeing people with an interest in modeling stuff; with how obtuse it is most people probably threw in the towel if they even figured out how to get started

Congratulations on getting something to work at all! They look -reaaaaaallly- pretty!

Thanks for all the effort, I know how hard it is and sympathize!
