RealFlight 1.2 + 1.2b, Realistic BtRL like physics
Using Beyond the Red Line and Sushi's velocity mod as a template, I added inertia to all the FS2 fighters, so they:

  • move much faster (Sushi's velocity mod!)
  • Handle like the BtRL ships, more "Realistic"

Recent Changes

1.1:
  • came up with a nice name
  • Glide enabled on all fighters, the Artemis D.H. the Bakha, and that other vesudan medium manouvrable bomber.
  • The Artemis D.H now really handles better then its normal counterpart.
  • SCP only now (thanks to $Glide and modular table!).
1.2:
  • Bombers suffer from inertia much more now (first they almost didn't)

1.2B (fork)
  • Artemis D.H. now the same as the original artemis again
  • Glide completely removed

RealFlight 1.1 old
RealFlight 1.2
RealFlight 1.2B (B Versions do not have $Glide added to the fighters and some of the bombers, for the rest, they are identical to their same version number counterpart)

I went to savefile because hosting provider has problems with uploading

The same mod for the FSPort

Re: Release (kinda): Inertia on all fighters
I like it!  Especially the $Damp settings.

Two things:
May I recommend adding Glide: YES to all the fighters?  :)
Consider doing these as tbm instead of tbl?  That way it is easier to adapt to mods.  Plus you don't have to include all the ships you haven't changed.

Re: Release (kinda): Inertia on all fighters
Should we coordinate better this MOD? There's another thread about a similar subject, created by Nico. We don't want to have two separate things running...

SCP only?

Re: Release (kinda): Inertia on all fighters
Well Nico's thread is about Sushi's velocity mod and this mod is inspired by it... Sushi's is probably not going to be updated, this one is.  Different threads, different mods, similar topics. ;)

IMO inertia with higher $Damp values doesn't work quite right on non-SCP.  Tends to fishtail more than drift.  Plus I don't think retail had lateral thrusters (without the Descent cheat at least).  So if you want non-SCP get the Sushi's velocity mod.

Re: RealFlight 1.1, Realistic BtRL like physics
Hmm. With this mod the AI is pasting my (or rather my convoy's) ass in the Into The Maelstrom mission (the Colossus fuel convoy escort). The bombers manage to pull off two salvo launches before I manage to frag them. Pretty cool otherwise.

Re: RealFlight 1.1, Realistic BtRL like physics
Do you have BtRL? Everything is explained there. And be sure you're using this MOD(check it, open the Launcher).

Actually it did. Watch the Mara's very closely next time you play. :)

But due to the esoteric key settings and the fact that few people noticed it most people think that thrusters are a new feature. :)

True, what I meant was actual controls for the lateral thrusters... or did it have those too and I was also one of those people that didn't notice it?  ;)

I'm sure I read something about them...maybe in a "get yourself started" section?
