Really nice. Too bad it goes 5 miles an hour.

I also noticed you can't fly very high, like 91 blocks high from the 0 coord. (sea level) Kept running out of gaps to fly though. It would make airports too risky over high areas. Still made it about 3000 units flying for a day which is pretty nice. Also I steadily descend when I use shift, is that intentional? Mod itself by the way is amazing, can't way to see future tweaks. The handling reminds me of SNES Pilotwings, extra for that.

I love this mod but there are some issues:
1) It's too easy to craft, we all have Iron sticks and wood lying around so why not make it that the plane is made out of iron ingots and sticks and diamond in the propeller?


so its like this

say for the propeller:
[] []
[] []
[]

and the wings:


[]


the tail:


[] []
[] []

and the final plane is the same :tongue.gif:

2) We need a higher altitude, seriously whenever I fly I have trees pop up in my way and I either have to go around them or try to change direction because I can't fly over them!!!

3) Make it so how we take off can be toggled say a few different modes like:
- Helicopter Mode
We take off going straight up but flying is normal.
- Normal Mode
How the planes are now/will be in the future.
- Realistic Mode
Planes need quite a bit of a run up and take a bit longer to slow down.

4) Also have it toggled so we can choose to (if we crash) recover all the plane bits (like now) or have to remake the whole thing OR like with the boat how we only get some resources back (obviously the diamond would be retrievable)

PLEASE consider these!

The thing about the biplane what if your exploring with one and crash it with no diamonds? I suppose you could just die and respawn or bring some.

Thank you for this awesome mod. This mod is especially important for virtual pilots who play minecraft (like me). I have built myself a runway, taxiway and a hanger(see attachments) I shall add a tower later. After flying this aircraft for and hour, i wonder if you could improve the steering. Taxiing is a pain in the ass right now. Thanks for your hard work.

EDIT: sorry the quota for attachments has exceeded=can't share screenshots :sad.gif:

finaly an epic flying mod. Godd job but as others have said a bit more height would be nice it doesn't feel like im flying over my world when i can't even fly over my castle.

i keep getting the dam black screen what am i doing wrong?

i installed everything and deleted meta file.

PLZ Help ive been trying to figure this out for hours.

What other planes will be in the mod? There should be a cargo plane!!!

how do I play in multiplayer mode? when I create the parts of the plane inside the server, it is impossible to remove from inside the crafting table ;SS

The mod isn't compatible with multiplayer yet.

I really love this mod. it makes traveling much easier. there are only 2 suggestions i would make:
1. Let the plane turn while on the ground.
2. increase the flying height ceiling. there are some parts of the map that are higher than the ceiling and makes me wreck all the time.

I second this motion. I can't turn in my hanger (and since my it faces west and placed planes face north, I can't take off out of it) and I can't land in my hanger either.
I built my hanger in V1, and the max hight was REDUCED in V2.

WHY is there a hight limit and WHY would it be REDUCED instead of INCREASED!? I CAN'T FLY OVER TREES!

Freaking awesome mod but,
1. Let the plane turn while on the ground.
2. increase the flying height ceiling.

Other than that, epic!

Did you just copy and paste that from two posts before yours?!

Im having the same problem as that other guy, I downloaded everything correctly but I keep getting the black screen. What version of Modloader do I need to use?

its pretty cool but :/ its way to hard to turn left and right

Try using A and D to turn, and mouse to climb.

Just want to remind you, this is still very much in the early stages of development, and jamioflan said that he IS planing on adding more planes at some point, with the biplane as the simplest, slowest, etc. Once he works out the bugs, he is hoping to add more planes which will require more expensive materials but which are better all around. Just give him time to smooth out everything and he should be able to get it added. So please refrain from bothering him and let him work out what he has so far. When he's satisfied with what he has, he will work on the bigger and better planes.
