Title: Shadow Six PE8 movie
Post by: TX-Zen on September 07, 2003, 12:54:14 pm
Gentlemen,

Please take a look at this thread:

http://forums.ubi.com/messages/message_view-topic.asp?name=us_il2sturmovik_gd&id=yznxp

ShadowSix is requesting volunteers for his upcoming movie about a PE8 raid on Berlin in the closing months of the war. I thought perhaps some of you might be interested in contributing to his next film.

TX members PM me for the password, the game will be hosted in the UBI game lobby. For our welcome guests, I would direct you to contact ShadowSix directly if you are interested.

I strongly encourage TX to lend as much support as possible to ShadowSix's project.

TX-Zen

Well we piled in last night and after a practice run got some footage of 7 PE8's taking off. I liked the tight single file formation on the runway, we looked good all together. Thanks for letting us be part of the movie ShadowSix, I enjoyed it. Salute!/me burns photos of that little crash incident with ButcherBird17 then sneaks away. TX-ZenBlack 6

Hehehehehe Zen,I couldnt see a thing, all that dust in me eyes. I thought you started your run, LOLI did like the dancing Pe8's though, I was very impressed with that, very funny to watch. Six sent me over the tracks, and they turned out real nice.  I'd like ta see those pics if if you did get any, like to use it as a desktop pic LOLButcherbird17

Hey Butcher , can ya send me the tracks ? Id like to see them too and Ill pass them to the rest of the guys if they want them.Thanks I enjoyed flyin the bomber lineup the other night too. Was fun , but just like everyone else Im sure , I really wish they'd put the Pe8 cockpit view in there. Kind of different flyin out of cockpit to say the least. I dont fly these often anyway , so it was alot of fun to me.S~Cya up there...TX-ShadowWhite 3

Hiya Shadow,Sure i'll send em too ya. Hook up with me at ubi lobby and i'll send them thru there alot easier and faster. They turned out pretty good.I dont know if Six got a hold of any of TX squad, but he would like for you guys to join us again so he can get some tracks of the pe8's dropping there bomb loads. I think he'd like to do this, this weekend some time dont know for sure the day or time but i'll find out and post it here. ~S~ AllButcherbird17

Hiya guys,Thanks all who participated the other nite on the ubi server for our pe8 flight.  The tracks turned out very good and I just love seeing those pe8's lined up for take-off!Butcherbird17 is right--I would like to do a 'bomb drop' mission together.  It will basically be the same drill--takeoff, forming up, and dropping our 'loads'.  I suggest using the 12x250 or 40x100 loadout options, since this was an indiscriminate raid on the city of Berlin IRL.I would like to do this mission on Sunday nite, Sept. 14 around 9pm on ubi.com.  Further details later.  Just would like to know if this would be a good time for all of use to form up.  If not then, Monday night would be ok too.Also, any of you can get the pe8 tracks from me as well.  Thanks Butcher.Thanks again--Stalin would be proud!  (Can't you just picture him with that smile on his face?!)--ShadowSix

I would be more than happy to help - but i am afraid I am not very good at flying outside the plane, so i don;t want to mess up the film for you .  If you just need an extra man though - i will be more than happy to help out
