UllyB 1,206 Posted April 27, 2021 (edited) The modified cockpit (some parts repainted etc) I chose so far for it. I will also include a custom version of the plane with personal settings (textures, decals, engine visual effects etc), as the ones you see in these pictures.

UllyB 1,206 Posted May 2, 2021 When I saw the word "Wraith" I remembered the Wraith from Heroes of Might & Magic series, though that Agressor F-16 looks nice. We'll see. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JosefK 911 Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) For the first time @UllyB I'm stumped on roundels. What air forces are the first two w/ the Bangladeshi? Good to see Myanmar and Laos as WIP! Edited May 12, 2021 by JosefK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UllyB 1,206 Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) Because the SF2 engine allows it and because I want to offer you a complete experience with these skins, I decided to make TALISMAN ECM skins for every skin , to match the color. Otherwise it would have look weird (black on a blue skin etc). I hope you will like it. I am working at that for the moment, tomorrow I will come up with some shots to see the visual effect of the color match. Of course, in the end everyone takes what it sees fit for his/her taste. I wanted to give a hand and come forward into anyone wishes to have matching colors for skins and those slick ECM made for YAK-130, doing the job they would've done to change everything to match. Here's the easiest way to do it just for the people who are not familiarized tweaking these kind of things: You "split" the YAK-130 for each country (make sure in aircraft's dataini file you have this: Export=FALSE) and in each loadout.ini file you add the appropiate ECM pod name. For countries that have more than one skin and you want to see (let's say you have 2 skins like in Myamar for example) them all (the ECM skins for each I mean), you use this trick: you put for the first aircraft skin StartDeafult=1 in its ini and TextureSet.ini files and for the second you choose a year when you want to appear, from that day onward, and set StartDefaut=XXXX (the year) in its ini and textureSet.ini files. Also you should have modify , in LOADOUT.INI file of the aircraft like these lines as it follows (I set, for the second skin the year 2034; Notice the slightly CHANGED name for the second skin ECM pod): You , also need, for the second aircraft skin, to add the DefaultFor=.......... parameter (STRIKE, CAS etc). the names must match the names give from dataini file of the aircraft and NOT the ones given in LOADOUT.INI file!!! (CAS and not ATTACK!), otherwise it will default to the default skin , which, obviously , wont't match the ECM pod skin for that airraft skin you want. However I will upload all the files you need in order to work exactly as was supposed to, so you don't have to worry or complicate yourselves. :) Edited May 20, 2021 by UllyB 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
