Still one of my favourites and surprised in v3.4 so far looks great.

Great shots Gibo. Hope you hit the target.
I was wondering if the Eagle would work in P3D as I'm having a system built with v3.4 and Windows 10. What OS are you using?

Bill,

OS W10. The Strike Eagle looks stunning in P3d v3.4. I always had trouble with previous versions but this version installed via Migration Tool works great. The TV (Shift+1) will make the RHS DDI white and will stay white until you select another aircraft. With HDR ON the sim will ctd when a bomb impacts but bombs impact good with HDR OFF. Of course this is with my system and what I experience may not be the same with another.

Cheers,

gibo

After some more testing I have found ctd sometimes with A2G's on ground impact and A2A weapons on impact. I do not now believe that it has anything to do with HDR as I have had it on and watch A2G explosions. I haven't found any systems that do not work as yet. :D

I will keep trying to find what causes the weapon impacts to sometimes ctd?

Here is a video compilation of some test flights. Note the cockpit lighting and reflection at 00:14s. At the end of the video a MK84 is released on a WP on AUTO bombing mode however ctd on impact. I am certain that I had MK84's impact without issue previously. I haven't found any issues with the UFC as yet :D

I am looking at setting up a basic Tacpack mod to at least have NVG and Flares/CHAFF

After getting ctd on weapon impacts, MK82 & 84 have worked. I do not know what I have that is different. HDR is on.

MK84's here

I have got a basic Tacpack added to the aircraft. Keep in mind that the F15E with or without Tacpack is not supported by MILVIZ in Prepar3d so if you try it do so without MILVIZ support!

In the early part of the following video I am fired at by a Tacpack (TP) inserted SAM without a TP FLARE setup and I was hit :o

Later on I had TP Flares working and avoided the incoming missile either by firing Flares and/or diving low. The aircraft that I join formation with is a MILVIZ F15E inserted as a "Tanker".

Here is a short video with NVG, Flares and a hit from a SAM. I am trying to get Tacpack AIM9's working atm.

I fired the flares a little late in the following video and was hit by a SAM :oops:

Hi Gibo
I've installed the F15E into P3D V3.2!
Does it work with the new hotfix 2 as well?
I consider to update to 3.4...
Thanks a lot gibo, you've encouraged me to give the Milviz F15 a try in P3D and it is one of the greatest aircrafts in P3D! Absolutely stunning!


Greetings from germany.

Hi Bernd,

I haven't updated P3d v3.4 hotfix as yet. I can't see why the F15E would not work with it. I am holding off on the update until VRS have updated Tacpack to the latest Hotfix.

I agree with you about the F15E in P3d, absolutely stunning.

Cheers,

gibo

Hi gibo

Thanks for your reply!

I'll give it a try. If it won't work, I'll go back to 3.2.
I haven't got the Tacpack installed, so no worries about that!

Rock on,
Bernd
