Hi!

I was wondering if someone can create this french classic.

Thank you in advance!

Hi Aizawa_Yasuhira,

thank You for the nice words.

Actually, I do not have any to-do list of models. As soon as one model is finished and I feel like starting a new one, I take a look around to see what might be interesting and missing in the game. The Farman Goliath would be interesting and I have eyed it a little aready, but unfortunately it suffers from insufficient documentation. To build an aircraft, I need as good a blueprint as possible. What I found on the Farman yet is this picture that shows the general layout and dimensions but lacks strongly in details and structure. It does not show construction details on the fuselage like its material (the forward fuselage may be from wood, steel tubes with fabric cover or other), where the wing spars and ribs are located, where the fuel tanks sit, how the doors look, it omits details from the cockpit and the cabin and so on. Only with a heap of pictures might it become somewhat useful.

Compare the above picure to this one. A picture of this quality can immediately be taken as a template, only some pictures of the flight deck, engine details and cabin are required on top.

Already many models that I would have found interesting have had to be cancelled due to this - this is a major obstacle to building models unfortunately.

For now, I´ll finish the B247, and then we´ll see what may come next

Nachtrag: Hier ist noch ein Bild von heute. Das Fahrwerk ist installiert - es ist eine Konstruktion aus den 1920ern, die mit heutigen Systemen nicht viel zu tun hat. Bei diesem Modell wird es eher angeklappt als vollständig eingezogen. Deswegen gibt es auch keinen richtigen Fahrwerksschacht, sondern nur kleine Ausschnitte, in denen die Beine etwas versinken. Von den Rädern schaut die untere Hälfte aus der Struktur raus: wenn das Fahrwerk einmal steckenbleiben und nicht ausfahren sollte, kann man die Maschine so trotzdem ohne größere Beschädigungen landen.

Als nächstes kommt die Kabineneinrichtung dran.

I think this will help. It has a bit more detail.

Ni hao xia ! Wo bu shuo pu tong hua, this is why I will respond to You in English.

The TPF1 seaplanes are already sitting on my hard disk in a converted, expanded and strongly revised set. But there are no proper docks yet fitting their timeframe, making a release kind of pointless. At some time, I might get to reworking the TPF1 ones for 2, but if and when this project will be started, I don't know yet.

Hi!

Hugedragon YK pier is functional although it's set to start in 1965 but I believe that "as is" , it could have the start date changed to 1920.

Hi!

first off all, congratulations for your excellent mods. They have improved my game allot.

But there is one thing that I see in your videos and searched everywhere without success.

The windmills!

I Found a windmill mod for TF 1 and tried to convert it with the mod converter but failed. But you have them so they exist.

Did you converted the TF1 mod, build it or got it somewhere?

Thank you for your time!

Hi!

I was thinking that in the early aviation chapter, there is a big gap in early north american airplanes in Transport Fever 2.

I also think that the Ford Trimotor is a good representative of an interwar airplane for an american scenario.

Its an aircraft that still has some existing models for reference, so there are good sources to create a model.

So if a skilled modder would like to pick up the idea, I would like to see it in the game.

Thank you in advance.

The airplane was built from 1926 to 1933, Had 3 Curtiss-Wright radial engines or 3 P&W Wasp engines.

It was used in airlines from all across the globe and in some air forces as a military transport.

It could carry 11 passengers and 3 crew in real life.

It produced a maximum speed of 212 km/h

Here I found a link to the aircraft manual if someone is interested in it.

There are a lot of tutorials, unfortunately mostly in german. English ones probably also exists, but I don't have any links.

I have a very limited knowledge of german but should be able to use Google translator and fill in the gaps from a machine translation.

Thank you very much!

Hi!

Im playing Transport Fever 2 with mods for a While.

I Enjoy starting the games in the earliest time possible (1800 with mods) and I always fond that it lacks Ox carts that where some of the most important cargo transports in Europe, until the beginning of the 20th century (some survived into the eighties)

I believe that It would have to carry more than a horse wagon but would be somewhat slower.

Now, this is a double request because I would love that somebody would create the mod but I also want to start modding (and I have some modding ideas, especially for XIX century stuff) so, if someone would direct me for a good tutorial about creating mod in TPF2, I would be grateful.

Thank you in advance!

Hi!

First off all, I want to congratulate you for your work.

Second, I want to ask if you have any plans to adapt some great planes that you made for TPF 1 like the Airbus A340.

I. tried to convert it but I´m stuck. I have searched for relevant documentation but I don´t know what I'm doing wrong.

So I thought about dropping the suggestion because I think they fill a big gap in the game.

Thank you again for your great mods!
