[+Julhelm 266]

Very nice!

[HrntFixr 4]

Thanks for a fun model Julhelm!!!

 

Question for you.... I don't have a radar ... did I miss something?

 

Uploading this now.... Shark's mouth kestrel

[Silverbolt 104]

my favourite is the "sidewinders"

[+Julhelm 266]

There is no radar on the Kestrel. I suppose you could add a radar with TWS/ACM to mimic passive RWR combined with IRST as seen in F-19.

[HrntFixr 4]

Hmmmm .... now thats an idea!

[Viggen 643]

I like these Air Force ones.

 

I don't mean to be an "I want! I want!" but could you do me a favor and make one in the colors of the 102nd FW of the Massachusetts ANG?

You mean as in a pretty bird or a low vis? Also got to see if I have a decal sheet for Mass ANG.

[Viggen 643]

Pretty Bird. Like the F-106 on the link below but with the MA tailcode if possible.

Edit: forgot the MA on the tail

Like this?

You'll get a kick out of the pilot name on the canopy rail.

[Viggen 643]

Oh hell! That's my name! Thanks man! I owe you.

What ever happened to Sag's Canada Kestrel?

[Viggen 643]

What ever happened to Sag's Canada Kestrel?

 

 

No idea. I was hopeing he would have released it to.

 

And HrntFixr, I've run into a problem How might I fix this? It is on all Kestrel skins.

Check you don't have a folder in a folder.

 

With my skins you just unzip them to the objects/aircraft/Kestrel folder and go flying.

If you still have it after you check that, post a screen of your aircraft folder so i can take a look.

[Viggen 643]

Yeah, still got the problem.

 

[TurtleHawk 6]

HrntFxr,

 

All of these skins are just too cool! Thanks a lot.

 

Now, if there was a campaign to fly the Kestrel in...

 

Maybe I'll try to swap the Kestrel for an AV-8, in the Harrier Campaign. Afraid I'll pork the Harrier Campaign, tho'.

 

Sorry, don't mean to hijack the thread.

[+suhsjake 11]

I think it only happens when you have a misnamed skin. The model works, so do the decals, so the file name should be kestrel.bmp. Might want to check that.

 

Hope that helps.

 

Also if you want the AF numbers on the tail, here's a little text edit to the decals.

 

[DecalXXX]

MeshName=TailFin

DecalLevel=2

DecalFacing=Right

FilenameFormat=F4TailNum

Position=-3.6,0.83

Scale=0.85

DecalMaxLOD=3

 

[DecalXXX]

MeshName=TailFin

DecalLevel=2

DecalFacing=Left

FilenameFormat=F4TailNum

Position=-3.6,0.83

Scale=0.85

DecalMaxLOD=3

 

You can play around with the numbers to get the right fit for you. Also heres a data edit for the tail, in the kestrel_data.ini. Search for [VertTail] twice and you should get this data entry:

 

[VertTail]

ParentComponentName=Fuselage

ModelNodeName=VertTail <--------------- Change to TailFin

DestroyedNodeName=

ShowFromCockpit=TRUE

DetachWhenDestroyed=TRUE

.......

 

Enjoy those fixes.

Do all your kestrel's do it or just the new ones?

 

Your folder looks right to me.

 

If it does it to all of your planes, your missing something in the original aircraft folder.
