Default Open Falcon

This mod is excellent. Just installed it recently to see how the BMS version of Falcon is going. (As opposed to the Allied Force Engine)

Open Falcon has come a long way from the sp3, sp4, BMS, Free Falcon packs. Its very easy to install (compared to the dance from the previous mods and comes with a one click updater) In order to use this mod you will need the original Falcon 4.0 CD by Microprose. (Not Allied Force)

Here are a few videos of it:

OpenFalcon General


OpenFalcon MFD/FLIR

Thanks for the links Tiki,

I also gave OF 4.7 a try. Must say how impressed I was with the level of improvements so far. Way beyond BMS / SP4....

By the Way does anyone know whether the Reverse Thrust is moddeled / implemented in any of the Falcon4.0 iterations?

I seemd to have read somewhere that OF includes the reverse thrust (tapping the k key twice) simulates RT?

I was not sure if this was even applicabnle in RL F16? But it would be a nice touch, just as Tornado has the reversable cowels which augments RT.

Nothing to add, sorry Sparrowhawk.

What ever happened to " Ticklegod" or was that "Tackygoo" Neal will remember this.

He was a longtime contributer here.

Hope all is well with him.
