Looking for a little help

[MaverickMike]

Ok I have two questions. Any help would be appreciated.

 

1. Just wondering whether any of you guys know of a desert skin for the phantom fgr.2 (RAF)

 

2. Im planning on putting HMS Ark Royal into SF2. Is there a second gen version available or will i need to convert it myself. If this is the case do i simply follow the instructions in KB for converting ground objects or will there be more to it because its a carrier?

 

What im planning to do is to edit the 72 campaign (the recently uploaded desert 3 version) so that the RAF phantoms are based on the Ark royal in the straights of dhimar instead of the airfield.

 

Thanks in advance

ok no known desert skin for RAF Phantoms. The RAF would not have flown off the ARK Royal but in 72 the Ark was still flying FG1's in Navy Blue. as for placing the carrier i got some help from Wrench on that will shoot you a link to the post at lunch.

Thanks for the reply. I cant seem to find any FG.1s so im going to use the fgr.2s instead. As for the link thanks but I already know how to place the carrier etc. Just not sure if converting it will work using the knowledge base.

 

I will try and give it a go a bit later on

 

Thanks again

I took this screenshot about two years ago and the skin is by Coyote

 

And this is where the skin is from

I also think that SidDogg did a few for USAF Phantoms at about this time last year and it's easy enough to cut and paste the Spey nozzles onto the relevant bitmap to convert it to fit the Third Wire F-4M.

Excellent. Thats just what im looking for

 

Thanks spinners!

the Knowledge base will tell you how to convert planes or ground objects over its so easy i can do it i had to post about carriers because the accompanying photos of ini edits are missing. i hope that helps you

 

@ spinners Sweet skin!

@ spinners Sweet skin!

 

Thanks. But, as mentioned, the skin is by Coyote not me. I just added the decals.
