New payware: IRIS F-15C

Post by MIKE JG »

Just picked this one up last night. It's got a really good VC but the external model still leaves some things to be desired. Overall it's still an improvement over the Coral F-15.

Couple more shots. Comes with C,D,J, and DJ variants, 21 different variations in total between model, paint and loadouts.


As you can see in the right hand side of this shot, the hud imagery still shows up in the shot even when you are not looking directly at it. :roll:

Looks nice. I have a few of their models, but IMHO they always seem """rushed"""

If I was them I would of done a LOW Poly AI version as well and sold that as well!
Would of had a few takers for it I bet

To anyone who has or gets this model one thing I found that helped out tremendously was a "HUD hack" that someone posted on the IRIS forums. Apparently the HUD display on their F-15 is very authentic, but also is killer on the frame rates because of its complexity. I can verify the effect on the frame rates, they're not very good with the original HUD installed.

This modification allows you to use the heads up display from the Coral F-15 if you already have it installed. I made the changes and it made a HUGE difference for my frame rates in the VC mode. :wink:

Here's the link to the HUD fix:
