MODEL
Highly detailed model, fully animated
Highly detailed 3D cockpit, fully animated and working
Frame rate friendly in single and multiplayer, it comes in two versions:
- 'SOLO' for single player use
- 'UBUNTU' optimised for multiplayer (available on SSW support forum)
Complete 3D-lights systems both internal and external, no flaws on low visibility
TEXTURES
Complete multinational liveries set in different tone and aging
Bump, speculars applied
A complete paintkit will soon be available for painters
SYSTEMS
Almost all real systems have been modelled and working as the real thing
Flight dynamics modelled 99% close to the real aircraft; fully tested and validated by qualified real-world F-104 pilots
Fully functional and close to real NASARR R-15, A/G and A/A mode with:
- STT (Single track target)
- LOCK-ON
- ATTACK
- GROUND MAP PENCIL
- GROUND MAP SPOILER
- CONTOUR MAP
- TERRAIN AVOIDANCE
Aerodynamic pitch up, inertia coupling and BLC system reproduced
Payload drop actually changes aircraft weight, balance and drag as well
Inertial navigator Litton LN-3 fully implemented
Dual timer bombing system
Special weapon delivery system
Conventional weapon system, rocket launch, AA missiles launch system - requires vACMI
DDI (DYNAMIC DRAG INDEX)
The SSW F/RF-104G uses the Dynamic Drag Index concept; i.e. when you load/drop external loads not only is the GW changed but also the drag coefficient is affected and the model aerodynamics change accordingly. This is particularly important in the F-104 where external loads affect greatly the dynamic behaviour of the model.
Every specific model has its own internal layout with custom gauges (e.g. Dutch and German Zippers have their own altimeter etc.).
Also note that the internal layout will change into sub-versions depending on the ordnance you're carrying.
SOUND SET
A custom sound set has been developed from scratch, using live recording to give you a full immersion into the Zipper environment. If you are a Zipper fan,you will enjoy staying outside and 'playing' with the throttle, listening to it's unique voice.
RELEASE NOTES
The Sim Skunk Works FRF-104G came in two basic versions:
'SOLO' suitable for solo flights with bump and speculars map with all FSX-specific texturing features
'UBUNTU' optimised for multiplayer without some texturing effects to enhance the FPS friendship.
Even if the SOLO model is FPS- friendly it should not be used in a multiplayer environment for two reasons:
1. It can be demanding on resources and affect your FPS when more than 4-6 players are present.
2. Weapon load-out can be inconsistent between different players.
The UBUNTU model overrides both the above limitations.
USER BENEFITS
The model comes with complete docs including:
Three pilot checklists (normal, emergency,weapon procedures)
Zipper hints (a doc that help the pilot to use it effectively)
NASAR R15A simple user guide
Original 700-page Flight Manual in PDF format (upon request)
User support help desk
Reviews
"This aircraft does for fighter aircraft and the fighter pilot convention of simmers, what PMDG does for the airliner fraternity... I can only say that this is positively one of the finest FSX add-ons I have ever come across... It is clear that careful attention to detail was paid by the developers." AVSIM (Gold Star Award)
