View Full Version : Unit: Bristol Beaufighter (British WW2 plane)
aaglo May 21, 2003, 12:21 AM Hi again! :D
So, this was done yesterday. It is a British WW2 plane, used especially as a torpedo plane (but now I realize I didn'd make the torpedo attack... DOH!) :mad:
Well, after all I think this plane looks quite good.

NEW!
You can download the new torpedo attack files by Smoking Mirror (thanks!) in the post n:o 14 in this thread.
Here's an ingame preview of the plane:
aaglo May 21, 2003, 12:22 AM And here's a portrait of this plane.
Mawfia1 May 21, 2003, 12:25 AM It looks good...I get a dead link when i click on the text though!
aaglo May 21, 2003, 12:47 AM Fixed. It was a typo (one capital letter too many... )
zulu9812 May 21, 2003, 01:27 AM Do you think you could make a torpedo attack? That'd be pretty unique :goodjob:
Risbinroch May 21, 2003, 01:46 AM Will look abit stupid with a torpedo against land units or cities though...
Great lookin' plane!! The colors are great!!
aaglo May 21, 2003, 01:58 AM And I don't even know how the torpedo attack works. Does the plane drop the torpedo, and the torpedo then propels itself into the target?
That would look funny against the land units... :D
Smoking mirror May 21, 2003, 02:06 AM If you use the Cruse missile death flic, and just set a long delay say 6-7 frames, by extending the animation then moving everything along the storyboard, then use Stephs multi unit story board editor to make the explosion happen at the edge of the enemy units square....
Actualy, I'll do that tonight for inclusion with my generic 1930s bomber, it could look like a torpedo or timedelayed bomb attack depending on the target.
aaglo May 21, 2003, 02:10 AM Okay, I will pretend that I understood exactly what you just said, and wait for what you come up with :lol:
Ville May 21, 2003, 07:19 AM Looks great!
Will use it
kittenOFchaos May 21, 2003, 01:10 PM It appears to have American markings...
Still, I shouldn't complain as it looks like yet another good unit from Aaglo :)
CivGeneral May 21, 2003, 05:17 PM aaglo - Looks good :). I am also wondering. Could you do a B-24 Liberator :).
aaglo May 23, 2003, 12:17 AM I just noticed, that the BristolLarge.pcx has wrong background colour index (255) which makes it transparent, and thus MAGENTA in the civilopedia. Here are the new ones ;)
The same problem is also atleast in the B-29, Me-110's, He-111 bomber and Turtleship. And propably in the Gloster gladiator too... :(
Here's the new pcx-file ;)
aaglo May 27, 2003, 12:27 AM Okay, I made the torpedo attack by Smoking Mirror (thanks!) available to this fighter.
I edited the torpattack.flc a bit - I shifted the positioning of the drop and the explosion, because the explosion was a bit far behind in the original. I hope you're not offended by this, SM ;)
I think, when a bomber/fighter is bombing, the bomber/fighter moves, but the bomb.flc is static. Atleast I think it is so... ;)
Vuldacon Jun 04, 2003, 07:22 AM You Really do Excellent work with aircraft aaglo. Very Cool.
Ukas Jun 05, 2003, 12:30 AM Wot? All these air units already done? :eek:
You are working miracles, like some Nazaretian guy 2000 years ago, but faster. You are really are all what they said about Ceausescu. :worshp:
aaglo Jun 05, 2003, 12:32 AM Ukas,
Obviously you have been away for a while :lol:
The people say that Ceausescu is dead.... should I be afraid now :lol:
Hunter Jun 05, 2003, 02:08 PM Great job I plan on useing it as a light bomber with leathal Sea Bombard. :)
