Some company.... at least thats not porn...lol

Practice for D-Day somewhere over UK credit to Yakarov and others,especially Logan for assistance finally working correctly..

Somthing like this maybe?... 😁

A companion....yoke was proving a bore as it went through the clipboard...but it seems in the DC series you ould lock the yoke,so I have limited its movement for copilot version...will have pilot...and one with co pilot...looking at pic...might put left hand on the levers(red) and other holding clipboard up a bit higher so it misses the yoke. btw this is from Freeware FSX Dc-3 HCAA model...most of it I remade anyways...all gauges buttons lights.panel ..some of the other parts etc...its about 40% rebuilt

I wish.. ..unfortunately only a small fraction of that time was spent on the model; the remainder of the time was taken up by my trying to survive this10-year long financial crisis!! Fret not; once I've finished the Mk7 and Mk10 ejection seats required by some of the Greek F-5a(s), it will be released! Regards, Sophocles

View File VF-92 "Silver Kings" (1965) A new historical skin and decals for F-4B Phantom. VF-92 squadron (including CAG plane) in 1965 Made on Sundowner great templates and update, following RustyKurnas input.

Will have .. I' currently modelling the Mk.7 BRQ-7 (probably more accurate would be the IRQ-7.. then comes the 10 (and yes; it was used on the Tornado!!) That will make it 3 different types of ejection seat!

I use things such as RN_Desert and others to control both timeframe and geographic fencing for planes. For instance in my all inclusive install that's how I make sure I don't get CF-5 showing up in Bering Strait (because BS is only open to Canada_NORAD and the CF-5 only belongs to Canada_Europe) or CF-101 showing up in Germany (because of course, Gemany only accepts Canada_Europe and the CF-101 is only used by Canada_NORAD). It also allows me to have theater specific squadrons/skins (making sure no Atlantic Fleet Tomcat squadron ends up in the Pacific and vice-versa unless it makes sense for the scenario). But yep that should never, ever be your first solution, insanity lies that way. Good thing I already was.

OK, good luck - and as Russ says send to us via PM if you want a different perspective on things.. And Russ is right, your final modifier should really be editable mesh and the recommended way to export properly is to collapse the entire stack to editable mesh.

Well if you XFormed it and it had errors in it you're basically stuck as you can't really undo that - if the orig mesh has issues and you Xform it will definitely make your problem worse. Before Xform, go back to your original mesh and ensure you don't have issues such as open edges, unwelded verts, double-faces that kind of thing. Then I would suggest converting the wheel to editable mesh (not editable poly as there is a difference) - and see if that works. Or just upload your max file or just the wheel or whatever if you want and I'm sure between one of us we can take a quick look.

Ther's and error in the Decals.ini, wrong positions, I made a quick correction, worked for me. Aniway, in the download section you find much better skin,both USAF and VNAF Try this DECALS.INI

Id Tte 8th of May the right date to post an image of a german phantom ?

Daily Screenshot Challenge - Day 6 Theme - Soviet-Afghan War An IRIAF RF-4E manoeuvres hard to avoid the intercepting MiG-23s after crossing the Afghan-Iranian border to snoop on the massing Soviet forces...

You have new Mk.10 seats ??? Veery good ;-)

sadly no only on the max file or if you hack the LOD back into 3d max like some did in the WoX times!

Daily Screenshot Challenge - Day 5 Theme - Soviet-Afghan War 27th December 1979, Soviet forces, assault the Tadzh-Bek Palace on the outskirts of Kabul as part of the coup de main to take out president Amin and cement the invasion of Afghanistan... Afghan defences at the palace consisted of infantry and several tanks.. Leading the Soviet force is the elite Spetsnaz group Grom ('Thunder') The Thunder team is supported by BMP-1s, BTR-60s and ZSU-23-4s

el mar en realidad es un rió y esta es el tono de color correcto

you too mate for some help too....now just add co-pilot and done...got one somewhere that should look the biz.. just need now a dedicated Dc-3

It's 1980 and you're just in time to see a Royal Moroccan Air Force Mirage 5FM depart for the Dolly Parton Training Range.

or just paint the parts on a new layer and swap over on the texture those mesh areas

I had this problem....what it was....I copied a part and didnt reset is so it was actually flipped ...after resset xform and convert to mesh ,then flip normals.it was ok

did you try to assign different material for wheels ? wheels are editable poly or mesh?

View File FAA Skyrays It is little-known history* that in the late 1950s, their Lordships of the Admiralty recognised that the Supermarine Scimitar was an unmitigated failure. As an American observer noted at the time, only the British could build a jet fighter with 22,000lbs thrust, that still remained stubbornly subsonic. Not only was its performance rather disappointing (British understatement?), the Scimitar was extremely unreliable. At one point it required 1000 maintenance hours per flying hour, and over 50% of the Scimitar fleet was lost in accidents. Its best contribution to the Fleet, was as a Ground Instructional Airframe (which is where the author first saw one, at RNAS Arbroath in the late 1960s). In an act of some desperation, therefore, in 1958 the Admiralty cancelled the remaining 50% of Scimitar production, and instead discreetly obtained 40 F4D-1 Skyrays from US Navy stocks. Capt Eric (“Winkle”) Brown was highly influential in this decision. A navy test pilot with the world record for carrier take-offs and landings (2,407 and 2,271 respectively), and an objectively strong advocate of American naval ac designs, his advice on procuring the Skyray was decisive. (Besides, he was a Scotsman. From the right side of the country)(ie the East Coast - did I mention that I'm from Arbroath?). Modified to carry the British Firestreak IR missile, and also to perform the light strike/attack role, the F4D-1 thus entered RN service as the Skyray F1. These ac proved to be particularly useful on the smaller British carriers, Victorious, Centaur and Hermes. For example, in Hermes, the Skyray allowed 892 Sqn to deploy a full 12-ac sqn, instead of the originally-mooted 8-ac Sea Vixen "sqn-lite". This had the serendipitious additional social advantage of eliminating all the Sea Vixen coal-hole observers from the Wardroom. Later in their career, 20 RN Skyrays were modified to FAW2 standard. This entailed replacing the original AN/APQ-50A radar with a lightweight version of the Lightning's AI23 "Airpass" radar, installing compatibility for both the Red Top all-aspect IR missile and the US Bullpup AGM, and replacing the original 4 x Colt 20mm cannon with a harder-hitting package of 4 x ADEN 30mm cannon (albeit with halved ammunition loads). Deployed in HMS Victorious in 1965 during the Malaysian Confrontation, one of these Skyray FAW2’s shared with an RAF Javelin in the double kill of 2 Indonesian C-130B’s, caught in the act of attempting to infiltrate Indonesion paratroopers into Borneo. The RN’s Skyrays were finally retired with the decommissioning of HMS Eagle in 1972. Their last service was to familiarise a generation of FAA pilots with USN ac types, in preparation for the introduction of the superlative F-4K Phantom (another Winkle Brown protogé). *Alternative history. The reader is encouraged to decipher what is fact, and what is fiction above. For it is not all the latter.. :) Installation: the usual, simply download and unzip the "Objects" folder, and drop it into your SF2 mod directory of preference. Always always always backup your original stuff before trying out new mods like this. Credits: this mod is based on the SF2 Skyray 1.1 mod, which I think is the work of Julhelm and NeverEnough. Regret not sure to whom credit is due for the Firestreak, Red Top and Bullpup missiles, and the SNEB Can, so if I missed you out, sorry, but I tip my hat to you! Legal Stuff: all the usual disclaimers, ie use at own risk, always always always backup your original stuff before trying out new mods like this (bears repeating). Plus this mod is consistent with both Queen's Regulations for the Royal Navy, and the Official Secrets Act.

Dear friends! We would like to congratulate you on the very important holiday - 75th Anniversary of the Victory in Europe! On this day 75 years ago the hard and long road to peace, that cost millions of lives, has finally come to its end at the European theater of the world war. The people of all nations got a second chance to live. Let's remember the heroic deeds of our ancestors and be thankful to them - even though that today's crisis and problems are significant, they can't be compared to the gravity of the situation and the hardships of those years of war. The life that was given to us by the heroic deed of our ancestors continues. Coincidentally, this is a small anniversary for our project, which is entirely dedicated to the World War II events, as well - you're reading its 250th Developers Blog. Our work on the sim also continues - in 2 or 3 weeks we plan to release the next update 4.006. It will bring not only the new player controllable machines - Yak-9 and Yak-9T Collector Planes and SU-152 assault gun for Tank Crew - but also the fundamental changes in the graphics engine: the renderer will be switched to Deferred Shading. At the moment this update is already in the beta testing and our team is working on debugging and finalizing it. The changelist will be a long one once again, it already includes more than 50 changes in different areas of the sim. To illustrate what these renderer changes add to the visuals, we want to show you the in-game screenshots of Yak-9T, which is a good aircraft to display the new graphical capabilities: Another pic we want to show you the WIP model of the early war German pilot which will be used in BoM, BoS and BoK timeframes. It's going to appear in the project a bit later, but it won't be a long wait:

All working now big thanks to helpers especially Logan cheers guys

A Blast from the Past....
