I noticed he modified my tornado model and made an F.3. I can't say I'm very happy about the fact that neither my name, nor sundowner's name appear anywhere in any of the credits. However I do want a copy of my model back, so if anyone has it please let me know.

Cheers

AD,

I just checked the GR/IDS models and compared them to the F3 model. The mappings don't match by any degree.

The OUT files are also very different in terms of bmps, hierarchies, etc.

Can you be specific as to what you see that makes you believe the F3 model is derived from your work?

FC

I know it's mine because I built it.

Actually you're wrong there. The mappings for most parts are identical, take a look at for example the airbrake and you'll see it's the same shape/angle/size. However they've been moved onto 3 new sheets with a different arrangement is all.

Anyway I'm really not that bothered about permissions, I just want a copy of my original model back from Bobrock or anyone else that has it, because I no longer have a copy.

Cheers

Hello AD, sorry to disappoint you, but the F.3 model is 100% original in any of its parts, airbrakes, wings, fuselage... whatever.
I think I know for sure because I did the model from scratch, as I ALWAYS do(the different screenname on this board is actually a bit misleading, but you can get in touch with me on CAce forums if you like).

The fact that many parts "look" the same it's because, well, they ARE the same on the real plane, why should I have made them different?

I don't have your original GR/IDS model, best of luck finding it

We'll just have to agree to disagree there.

Can someone please send me my tornado model.

Dave- I have this still on my backup if you need it. Got the Hunter and the SU-17 as well. Probably others as well.
