Almost done modeling an F-4 Phantom, going to paint it in USN and USAF colors, maybe RAF also. Animations are pretty much finished, just the control surfaces and the nose and right main gear. No idea on release yet, most likely mid to late June. Last things, its FREEWARE

P.S. ITS MY FIRST GMAX PROJECT!!!

Nice work

For sentimental reasons, I wouldn't mind VMFA-115 "Silver Eagles" colors.

Blade...... buddy............
PPPPPPLLLLLLLEEEAAAAAAAAASSSSSEEEEEEE!
Do a F-4E and RF-4E!......... you said yourself you got the noses of them Cry
About the textures.... well I don't want to bother you doing Israeli paint scheme too (even if the IDF/AF brought him a lot of glory), so please publish a paint kit.....
OK?
P.S: What about the Super Phantom we talked about? I'll take care of the colors and supply you the PW1120, all you got to do is fit the engine to the body and improve his performance is FS Smiley and then we'll have the ultimate F-4 ever! (that flew)

Sure I guess we could do that, also I'm most likely going to release a paint kit, just blank textures for you guys to work from. Oh and here's some updates.

How will you be able to switch from the front normal panel to the front lower panel to the back? Will you use a system like on the LAGO F-16?

I "THINK" I can put in a button menu like the CS 727 has, that changes the views. If not its Shift+1,2,3...

But if it's SHIFT +1,2,3....., you have to turn off the view you're already in and then go to another view, otherwise you would have views stacked on top of each other all visible Roll Eyes

Yea, don't know how to do it yet so you might have to do it manually, but at least you will have the views.

Erik,

Its looking very nice so far......

You mentioned earlier nearly every version apart from the one that i would really love to see.....The F-4G 'weasel'.
Any chance you can add this variant to your increasing list?


cheers

OK, looks great
but a few minor gripes, after having seen a real F-4G up close in some museum in Munich...

- Rear wheels are a little weird, the rim an tire are flush on the door side
- Tail hook is too sharp, and the hook part too small. the hook is a clumsy lump of metal which looks like the foot of a horse, but whit a finger-thick edge for catching the cable.

And a great museum suggestion for anyone...
the famous Deutsches Museum in Munich has a special aircraft department in a village called Oberschleisheim. they have some freak german VTOL experimental aircraft, and a nice lineup of a USAF F-4, NVA MiG-23 and MiG-21, and a lot of light gliders
 

Russian planes: IL-76 (all standard length ones),  Tu-154 and Il-62, Tu-134 and An-24RV&&&&AI flightplans and repaints can be found here
