F-84E Thunderjets of the 68th FBG... Blue - 525th FBS Red - 526th FBS Yellow - 527th FBS C/O aircraft - MultiColored

Very old stuff sent to me by wpnssgt.......

For those of you saw the movie: remember the word "The Roach" used after dropping the 40mm grenade on the VC? I uttered the same phrase here, since at 2 miles every Gun & SAM in Iceland started firing. If you don't, here's the link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f96p-IhcZhQ

Mirage VI

as for color picker, i said it felt like that happened. but i did also say i would be corrected if i was wrong! i have had some conversations in the past were the other sides arguement was a scanned pic, rather than a hex value or color chip or anything else that doesnt have as much wiggle room as an old picture. as for the rest, all i can say is that time moves on and you've been very up and down in showing up around here the last few years, more so down with the released mods. i do know i am usually pleasantly suprised when i see you have a post in the WIP or Screenshot threads. and if GKABS and his team are getting your max files, that is seriously awesome. you, BPAO, ravenclaw, eburger, and several others did do very awesome work at teh beginning of this, in the SF1 days and earlier. stuff that really does still hold up decently today. yes, there are better models and skins, because there are better software, tools and computers today than 20 years ago. just look at teh lodviewer as one example. alot of the work done in the past is somewhat hampered by its success, not many newer modders want to spend their time on those because their still pretty good and why reinvent the wheel if its not squeaking?

I found the boat this time....

Well, the Viggen model available here is a team work between some member of the Scandinavian Front team, including Ravenclaw and myself. It's not based in the same source file that the DAT model is based , is a new model with a LOT of improvements if we compare it with the DAT model. Teh model, like all the final Scandinavian front pack, is a BETA since some of the members abandon the project and the leader, JOnathan decided to release as it to provide the CA people a mod with planes that until then were only available in DAT site. I think I still have the source files, but right now I don't have time to work on it I will try to find the original models and release them in a separate pack, but they are last in a long line of models (F3d, LAvi, NAmmer, CH-47,A3D,A2D,A7M, IowaBB, FREEM, B-32,HE-277,JU-388... so it could take more than the usual two weeks

last Phantoms in USAFE....

Catching the Thirdwire..

(While not particularly WW2, the bird is!) "crusing for the give someone a brusing"

Really...? What is the point of posting a screenshot from another commercial game model...I guess to get likes for unjust credit... Didn't you already get called out here: Anyway, obligatory silly screenie - down on the farm making an honest living.

Another advance:

@ Daddyairplanes, You are right, I've been more and more pissed off over the last 12 months or so but it all stems from the same basic thing & that is the overwriting of someone else's work, sure, if you dont agree with the colours,decals fonts or whatever of a particular model, then certainly go ahead and make your own, that's why I've uploaded so many templates over the years, I've wanted folks to do their own thing and upload them for us all to use but I did'nt intend them to replace my original work like has been done too many times. I was hoping for multiple uploads of the same skin in different users versions of what they feel the best colours etc are, it's called freedom of choice. And that's exactly how it used to be done, we all had respect for each others work, there was no need to try to "compete" as it seems now. In the F-15 thread you basically said that I'd used a colour picker on a photo to get a colour reference, LOL, Trust me I've never done that! But I've done just about every else, fs numbers, hex values & god knows what else. (try skinning on a monitor calibrated for photography work, that will really mess with your head) But I can state for a fact that if lets say five of us used exactly the same Hex values or fs colour chip on a skin, at least one of us would say that the colour looked a little "off", not wholly wrong but just now how they would have chosen it to look....hence the need for more of this variety as apposed to the ego pushed version of things we've been seeing just lately. Also what I dont want to happen here is for folks to think that there is a rift between me and you, because in my view there is not. You know why I decided to stop uploading any more work, but seeing as you've done a huge amount of work on the MF factory Boeing 707 and C-135 series of birds I'm going to use you as an example but users please be aware that this happens all over the downloads. My statement is how would you feel if tomorrow I re-released a full on remodelled and remapped version of 707's & C-135's and did it so that ALL of your hard work was to be overwritten as it's junk/crap less "historically accurate" Like I said DA this is'nt aimed at you personally there's a few offenders on here and they know who they are. But lets move on, my health is screwing me over a bit more just lately as some of you know, but with the recent announcement from Gkabs to take a look at redoing some of the older models we've been in contact with a view of me supplying some of the many max files I have sitting on various drives for him and his team to work their magic on so hopefully we'll be seeing new not a re-hash of my poor old 20 year old attempts. Btw any of you want to make custom brushes etc for the likes of nostep/nopush marks weathering or anything it's really easy to do just ask.......just think of all those little yellow marks on JASDF planes......loads easier than copying layers.

Well done Mark, glad you're on the job of figuring this stuff out and I admire your patience. I don't fully understand the different behaviors either but a big problem throughout my research has been the differences between video cards, drivers and how the game assigns various graphics routines to them. So what you see is not necessarily what others see and it's self-evident when people don't experience any problems with their setups or used wrappers, to not further experiment and stick with what's working until they run into problems.

well, if the Phantoms in the shot wont have sharks mouths, i guess the Vipers damn well will have em......

eh... but if you have two PCs - on one you can play a campaign on the other make mods

a new A-6 family would be massively appreciated by many here. hell, i think TK woulld have made 20x the money he hoped to make with a SF2 Win10 had he made pits for his intruders as DLCs

Thunderbolts............Swedish Style. Turning on Final to the Dispersal Point Good to be back...........

Somewhere in the South Atlantic

for you, this is a semi interesting shot on an airfield. for me, it was Wednesday...

exactly what I think too. Not only the F-15s, also the (original TMF) F-16s.

F-5E Tiger II, Republic of China, better known as Taiwan.

Which were made from my originals.......lol, it's amazing just how much of this old stuff is being reused over and over. I dont have a problem with it, but it's about time some-one did a "complete" redraw of of all these old birds.

those skins were made with viper63s templates, i would give him credit for 50% of how mine are. there were some corrections, and some improvements over the original but the permission's out there if he wants to touch his up. as a modder i will understand perfectly if he choses to maintain what he did (i often do the same with my own mods vs somebody else's of the same thing)

late to the party, but still made it

The info box in the corner shows KIAS. If you enable debug output with DisplayDebug=true in HUDDATA.INI, then you get a lot of additional infos, including KTAS. You can circle with ALT-D through the various display modes. I assume that TK implemented a model of the standard atmosphere that gives the air density at any given altitude and from there IAS is calculated.
