[RELEASED] IniBuilds Messerschmitt Bf 108 Taifun

As always, nothing shown in previews is final until release, but we thank you for the feedback on the liveries; though I would like to counter the idea that our livery painter for them is “lazy”, and highlight that sometimes people just make mistakes :slight_smile:

To the readers on this thread, please be kind in your comments - you can criticize without being rude or disrespectful. “Lazy” is a terrible characteristic without any consideration at all to what the actual situation might be for the manufacturer.

Additionally - comments like that are now Voice of the Customer. You can contact Inibuilds direclty to make your Customer Feedback - please DO NOT post it here. Once again, the MSFS forums are provided for GENERAL DISCUSSION of Third Party Offerings, not Technical Support or Customer Feedback.

Let’s kindly get this conversation back on the rails. Thanks.

Has there been a price announcement?

Sorry about that. You are right of course. Since I have seen too much substandard stuff in the last years, I was a little too quick to take up that remark without thinking :frowning:

Hello Guys,

The model / textures you see in the trailer / pre-release is not the release model.

This mirror issue is not present on the release candidate.

Many thanks,
Ells.

Thanks. Do you have a release date yet?

Thank You for replay! Cant wait :slight_smile:

Would this be a simultaneous PC/Xbox release ? Or limited to PC due to WASM ( for time being )

Yeah, when posting on the Internets in general, not just here, it’s always good to run it through a “how would the person I’m talking about feel if they see this?” filter. Even if you have feedback, that feedback’s going to be much better received if it’s posted with a considerate tone.

Glad to hear the mirroring isn’t happening, given all the fantastic historic liveries folks can create here.

Has anyone found pics of the Bf-108 that the US operated in Europe pre-WW2? I think it might be the yellow 108 at the top of this page, but not sure.

IniBuilds just published the introduction video to the Taifun. If the P-40 is anything to go by, the 108 should be available over the next few days =)

Looks good. But I think it has one too many landing lights. And there’s that typo on the German turn and slip indicator that still hasn’t been fixed.

It‘s quite possible Messerschmitt built the plane with one or two landing lights according to customer wishes. So that‘s not an issue for me.

The mislabeld turn indicator is annoying but most likely easily fixed, so lets hope they‘ll get it done. Otherwise I‘ll change the texture myself and upload a mod.

Hello,
Did you test this model in VR too? Everything is ok? The scale of cockpit is ok too?

I think those tests are important before release, if you need me, just write me PM.

I also mentioned that in the video comments. The typo has already been fixed shortly after the video was recorded and they wanted to check on the landing light =)

What is the crank thing on the middle of the dash

Fully agree! And they have released some of the best looking planes in the sim in record time!

That’s the prop control.

PC/Xbox on Marketplace at the same time.
Will be available from iniStore first though as has to go through Marketplace ingestion.

@CommanderTin
There are different planes with singular and dual landing lights, our reference has both.
And decals have been fixed.

@rafikst She’s amazing in VR!! I have the quest 2 and really enjoyed it.

@VoraciousJet We call it the coffee grinder, essentially prop RPM control

Good news and thx for reply about VR.
Will it only be distributed via Marketplace? As I know some developers are waiting few weeks (or even months) to see his addon in Marketplace. :frowning:
