Today, after a long period of developing this baby, in cooperation with Qawa67, the new widescreen F-15E Strike Eagle cockpit v3.0 for Red Viper is released.

This is a separate product from the former F-15E cockpit v2.4, which is 2D only and for other Falcon 4.0 versions.

Splash screen:


This cockpit is made for 1600x1200 resolution (4:3) and autoscales down to lower resolutions.
The 3D cockpit can also be used in widescreen resolutions like 16:9/16:10 but the 2D cockpit will have black bars on the sides.

STP Aeyes adapte ton cockpit de F15E a Open Falcon

Hello Ayes.

It seems nice, but what about people who bought the previous version of your Strike Eagle cockpit. Do we have to pay another 13€ to benefit from the 3D pit in FF4?

Et bien oui, c'est absolument magnifique

Combien d'heures de travail cela représente-t-il ? (par curiosité)

Hi Jojo,

Yes, unlike the F-15C of which v3.0 was a free upgrade from v2.4 the F-15E v3.0 is considered a new and different product than the previous version.
Not only does it have a fully clickable high standard 3D cockpit, but also the 2D pit (from 2004) has had a major overhaul.
The amount of time invested in it was pretty big, including testing it took approximately 6 months.

Oui, à la différence du F-15C duquel v3.0 était une mise à niveau libre de v2.4 le F-15E v3.0 est considéré un nouveau et différent produit que la version précédente. Non seulement a-t-il un cockpit entièrement clickable du niveau élevé 3D, mais également le 2D puits (de 2004) a eu une révision importante. La quantité de temps investie dans elle était assez grande, y compris l'examiner a pris approximativement 6 mois.

salut a tous je deterre un peu le topic car je viens d'acheter ce pit ce week end et franchement ca carbure grave il est tres bien fait comme d habitude chez aeyes et pour voler sur autre chose que du f-16 sous rv c'est le joujou parfait, rien ne manque que ce soit au niveau visuel que fonctionnel du beau boulot
a essayer d'urgence pour ceux qui on rv , j'espere qu il sera compatible rv2
bon vol a tous

ça me rappelle un peu l'excellent cockpit de F-16 par Aeyes
que beaucoup avaient pour la version BMS (ça changeait déjà bien du cockpit de bases de Falcon4.0 )
qu'on a ensuite retrouvé de base
sur le projet -AF de LP .

on peut espérer la même chose avec RV2
(voir même croiser les doigts que le projet soit assez avancé ... afin que nos petits doigts ne soient plein d' arthrose pour taper sur le clavier quand ça sortira !!! )

merci aeyes maintenant je ne fait plus que du strike eagle , faut quand meme que j'arrive a le mettre en route ce foutu zinc c'est une vraie usine a gaz un switch dois m'echapper , rien a faire
