Sludge Hornet Modifications
neutrino:
Sludge, I haven't spoken with him since he gave me that glass. I urged him to publish it since he made so many iterations to get the final look, but at the time he said he was busy and even suggested that I do it. You can shoot him an email if you need.

JR...
Have you ever thought of doing a "weapons" panel to go along with HUD control panel? I mean, make a "left side armament panel" that would have a Master Arm switch, then an A/A switch (maybe get the A/A and A/G lights working), and a weapons select switch that would pull up a Gun Pipper w/cone "locked InLAR" logic, Heaters with proper sybology/growl, or AIM-120s and its wide-lock dashed line cone. Dont think the USN/USMC aircraft even use AIM-7s anymore, as the remaining ones have been reworked to be shipboard defense missiles.
If you did this, perhaps with some help from Scott, it could be the first stage of a whole Hornet avionics upgrade. Right now, I might have a guy who will re-animate and re-model the interior .mdl for the Hornet. Of course, HUD collimation is the first order of business for me, but if you already had the HUD Armament panel working along with weapons tracking, it would be a natural progression to integrate those functions into the interior model. Once it gets done.
Just an idea. Ill write Scott and see what he's up for as well.

Sludge, a working field/carrier hook switch will be the second, I suppose ;)

Yes sir, that it would be. Then we could concentrate on the weapons panel if JR's up for it. Which would be cool, and of course we couldnt actually FIRE weapons, but just to have tracking for online or multiplayer dogfights would rock. And everyone knows how much I like dogfighting in the multiplayer.
Anyway, just some ideas for the future... maybe for the Sludge v1.5 or 1.6, depending on when I lose my sanity and/or every last brain cell I have left.
