Good luck, Sea King has probably 100 millions of rivets. Remember, everytime you miss, you must start again ;-)

Simple rule. Do it the best you can, or leave it for others .

welcome, to the wonderful world of eyecandy..... still it can be fun if you have mission editor to set a tanker on an hour long orbit as sonme point along your route, form up and pretend to tank

fantastic details!!

did some changes to the texter didn't like the way it looked so I started a new attempt? need more work ;)

Hello everyone, Just to let everyone know, I am discontinuing the Dhimar vs. Paran project. Instead, I am working on an entirely new project that creates two new fictional nations from an alternative world. That way, I can write the new story afresh instead of expanding an existing nations. It does not feel right replacing everything that an author of SF2 has written initially about Dhimar and Paran. UPDATE: The information is posted at the 2nd page.

@Wrench Thanks for the info. Downloading.

Change the terrain and set airbase size to SMALL on plane's DATA.INI.

I have all the TinTin books, and the encyclopedia........Could sort of say I'm a fan lol

Have you played it yet ?......I hope they do X-Wing too

on Auto land, the aircraft is too low and hits the back of the carrier then straightens up on the deck. Is this a known fact, or can it be fixed ? also, i still haven't figured out how to populate the deck with personnel and equipment

are the names entered exactly as the folder names and aircraft names in the campaign ini?? Just checking ...

Regarding populating the deck with personnel and equipment, you may have been looking at screenshots of YAP carriers that have these built into the model.

Look for "King Ottokar's Scepte" we find countries like Syldavia, and in the " Calculus Affair" we have the likes of Borduria and there are many other countries that are looseley based on Eastern Bloc nations, google Tintin, and it should give you a potted history. Herge used a lot of real life aircraft in his stories too, so there are some interesting colour schemes for 1930 - 1950 ish, Spitfires Mosquitos, Arados BF109's etc as well as a lot of Civilian types too.......very interesting and could be rather fun to do.

Well Poland was only in the Warsaw Pact because they got screwed in WWI and II, they have really always sided with the West, also after the fall of the Iron Curtain, most of the oldSoviet Equipment was retained, and in some cases still is, therefore for a !western" oriented power or Country to be using Lims, Iskras etc is not totally out of the bounds of reality. A lot of the old Warpac nations still do retain old Soviet equipment, helicopters in particular, because, let us be honest, the Russians build beautiful and effective Helo's . So. depending on when you are going to set the scenario, the Poles could be on either side of the curtain so to speak. If you look at the equipment knocking around in both the Middle East, ( PARAN/DHIMAR) there is a mix of both modern european stuff, South American kit ( Brazillian mainly) and US produced aircraft, the F16 being rather commonly equipping all sorts of nations. However if it wer me doing the revamp, I would actually cut down on the amount of US kit, except for maybe Phantoms, and the earlier stuff, like the Century series, one could have a scenario in fact where both sides are actually using the same, or similar equipment, Mirage vs Mirage for example............The possibilities are boundless, and I would be tempted to make it as diverse and "different" as possible.

"You just bought a light to additional new ideas. You are genius! This is what I decided from now on. The feedback are appreciated as always. " Yes as a Brit, it sometimes irritates me sometimes, that people seem to forget that there is a very successful and prolific Aerospace industry outside of the US and Russia, and those aircraft, which are every bit as good as, and in a lot of cases better than, US/Soviet offerings. Also I agree with Kev's ( Wrench) suggestion about the Canadian built Sabres. plus, in my humble opinion, they actually look better than the vanilla ones from the Good old US of A. Oh yeah, dont forget that the Polish also produced Migs under licence too. . its a whole world of choice , I had thought about doing this myself, except with 2 new nations, based more in the European or Baltic areas, the Countries of Elbonia, and Slobogia. Also there is the ones from the Tin Tin series too, that one could play with.....Food for thought.

I am not into whatifs. But i guess some suggestions can be useful. Israel - depends on which year - guess no earlier then the late 80s can start exporting technology. Before, like the 60s-70s, they had their own struggles. Sweden - as a neutral country they will be hesitant or bounded by treaties to export military equipment (guess small arms, utility, and armored vehicles are ok , no aircraft) Finland similar situation as Sweden. Argentina? - depends on which year - maybe in the late 80s they can start exporting. Before - only Pucara - even to both countries to spice a thing. France and its influence and products should be available to both sides.

Why do you have to think along the US/Soviet line, try using things like Mirage, or some British stuff, also Fiat Ginas etc. Just because they are antagonists, does not stand to reason that the "bad" guys are equipped with Soviet/Chinese kit. and the "good" guys use good old Uncle Sam hardware. Mix it up a bit and make it interesting, Oh and dont Forget SAAB's too.

CTD can occur when the engine can't create a mission because the range of the available planes are too short or no valid plane/unit for a mission role required for the mission generated for the player can be found. Either it can't find a valid objective for the player flight or can't create a target/intercept flight for opposing force. With some terrain that happens more often in campaign than single mission because the engine has to respect the rules of the campaign meaning it has less options regarding which base to operate from, which target to use and so on. That is often a problem with jet planes from the 50's and early 60's as they often have particularly short legs. I usually artificially increase the range of the planes that can be concerned, an alternative is to change the available mission types to exclude those requiring other flights (player STRIKE doesn't require an enemy INTERCEPT apparently but player INTERCEPT requires an enemy STRIKE duh, player ESCORT requires an ally STRIKE, player SWEEP requires an enemy CAP (but I don't think a player CAP requires an enemy SWEEP), player CAS/ARMED RECON requires available enemy ground targets and so on...). I'm thinking of this especially because it is a test campaign with only a few units, meaning the engine has a very limited choice of enemy units to assign as target and it might not have one in range (or capable of the mission countering the one assigned to the player).

Yup, as for only simple blueprints and photos GKABS did just amazing job. Hat off .

thoughts on interceptors: the F-102 and -106 were nuclear capable interceptors. the -102s only exported to two NATO allies, i believe to get both to behave within the framework of the Charter (didnt work) the 106 was assigned to the air defense of the Continental US. the only operational deployment they undertook was to Korea after the Pueblo incident for about a year. ther were also a couple of few week excercises to Europe. otherwise strictly homeland defense, so also not a likely candidate for export (not htat Convair didnt try) i think the F-104 would be a more likely candidate for export to Dhimar given teh politics of the time, although i like the inclusion of the Lightning as i always saw the DhAF as a alternate version fo the RSAF, but with an actual self reliance rather than the way the Saudis did business

Thank you, Adger! Chaps like you give me the will to go on (modding)! With the worst of the cloud flashing in BHaH2 gone, I am now working on an update to the Optional Cloud Mod. After that, maybe a damage mod, with particular attention to wings and engines.

Best wishes for the 100th anniversary of the chinese communist party.

it really has a LOT of flaws in it ... props are fucked up (fast and slow are not aligned to the axis), some other things I don't remember I'll look it over again, see what I think. below, remember these images are VERY old, dating from 2016. Yeah, that's HOW long this bird has been sitting around

Anyway, when you finally will count them, my defeat will be spectacular .

Wow, fast progress!

Thank you gentlemen for your kind words, and I am happy to make someone request come true.

in another thread, there was some discussion on decals. you know, you can have quite a bit of fun with them. things that folks never even notice, because they're in plane sight. I do this a LOT. Example below

estos últimos días regrese al tedioso trabajo de textura y cargar algunos azulejos de las islas, es un trabajo aburrido muy lento y con muchas pruebas y errores pero el resultado es muy bueno, acá algunas imágenes, pero todavía tengo mucho tiempo para terminarlo.
