    Hi mook!. As far I know, there is no way to "editing" an .lod file. Once you export your 3D model to this format, you are not able to really modify the geometry (except some minor changes using an hex editor). Of course I´m not an modeller, so If anyone knows any way to do this ,I apologize :sorry:

    Some time ago, I read from Flying Toaster (In SimHQ) that the F-20 Tigershark is in the "list". When?, I don´t know, but surely a long time. However, is nice to know that a superb modeler (MF F-15A,F/A-18...) has this beauty in sight! (By the way... I too would love to fly in the Tigershark with Shin´s skin) :good:

     

    Bye!

    :crazy::crazy: WOOW!!

    foxmonter, eres el amo!. I´ve saw Robotech-Macross since my childhood, and always loved the VF-1!! (I even keep a toy model). I´ve following your work here and in simhq, and I was atonished. Plus, I would tried to make an "cannon fodder" skin (the brown one) and now I discover you already got it!. THANK YOU a lot for all your work!. :clapping::clapping:

     

    About the gunpod..., Have you tried to buid it not as a weapon but as a part of the model?. OK, we lose the chance of loading it, but this is a very usual weapon (if not the most) in the VF-1.

     

    Bye!!

     

    PD: The thrust vector nozzles controlled by pitch is possible in this game, isn´t?. the MIG-29OVT by scrapper has this feature, but as long the original model has no animated thrust vectoring nozzles the effect obiously is not 100% correct. But scrapper shown that thrust vectoring+controlled by pitch+afterburner is possible. I´m sure the VF-1 would be an terrific opponent in dogfight!

    Two of Mirage Factory main modelers are Flying Toaster and BPAO. Here:

    you can see the AMAZING model of F-14B made by Flying Toaster. The thread started some time ago (May 2006), its seem than the 3d model is done, but an aircraft for SF requires a lot of extra work. The good news is that Column5 posted there he hopes we will see the F-14 in the first quarter of 07. Maybe a little later, but quality usually requires time! :rolleyes:

     

    Bye!

     

    PD:Sorry about my poor English!

    Hi Gux, first of all congratulations for this wonderful work !! :clapping::clapping: (both, plane and pit) .

    Sorry if I am giving you codes that you already have tried, but in Mirage Factory´s F-18 pit appears these lines:

     

    [Tachometer1]

    Type=TACHOMETER

    CounterNodeFormat=RPM_L_dig%d

    MovementType=ANALOG_COUNTER

    ItemNumber=1

    Scale=100

     

    [Tachometer2]

    Type=TACHOMETER

    CounterNodeFormat=RPM_R_dig%d

    MovementType=ANALOG_COUNTER

    ItemNumber=2

    Scale=100

    -------------------------------------------------------------

    [EngineTemp1]

    Type=EXHAUST_GAS_TEMPERATURE_INDICATOR

    CounterNodeFormat=T4_L_dig%d

    MovementType=ANALOG_COUNTER

    ItemNumber=1

     

    [EngineTemp2]

    Type=EXHAUST_GAS_TEMPERATURE_INDICATOR

    CounterNodeFormat=T4_R_dig%d

    MovementType=ANALOG_COUNTER

    ItemNumber=2

     

     

    (obiously, Gripen has only one engine, so...)

     

    By the way, some questions/suggestions:

    -where are you going to place the RWR?.

    -Have you considered to include a course heading, compass,etc.. in the left MFD?. I´ve seen a picture of a different status of this MFD (thought you lose the engine data, grrr... :blush: )

     

    post-10409-1170009899_thumb.jpg

     

    -In MF F-18, when you change from AA,AG and NAV modes, some date changes too on the center console (airspeed, true speed...). This fact allows to "emulate" a little of the spirit of a MFD.There is some way to change, for example, the map of the center MFD(Navigation mode) for another status(AA or AG)?

     

    Thanks a lot and good luck!!

    Hi everyone!!

    I´m almost 100% sure than requering for help to RedCrown is a total waste of time. Instead, I change the WAV files (there are 3, but I´ve not internet and I don´t remember their names exactly!!) in the speech folder, and replace them for 3 archives of my favourite music!. Now, every time I hit TAB+7+1 I don´t expect too much help, thought I get my hears satisfied!! (Ups, sorry my bad english...) :sorry:

     

    Bye! :ok:

    Hi bernard, very interesting reply, I must admit than maybe I´ve been expected too much for the actual avionic of the game :sorry:

    Maybe the open character of this sim (AND the tons of add-ons availables) make us too exigent about the future-possibles features avalaibles.But i think that the newest SP has made us happy not only for the new clouds but for the new radar and HUD modes.

     

    PD:By the way, isn´t a new official patch in progress? :good:

     

    PD2:Keep dreaming, maybe, the majority of these features will be avalaible on 2007:Wings over the Gulf!!

    :spiteful: (hey I´m joking, don´t ask me for release date HA,HA!)

     

    PD3:Sorry my bad english!!

    Hey reb, this is only an Mirage Factory F-15A with an Navigation Pod in the centerline station. I´ve also modified a little the TVfilter archive (from the cockpit folder). Is really cool hunting MIG´s in dogfight, with radar switched off and using only IR´s and guns. This is the reason I would like to make a TV camera (build in) for the Tomcat (In real life it has one, Isn´t?).

     

    Bye my friends!! :ok:

    Hey Sky Captain, I´m refering to the IR Image option than appear in Navigation/Laser Designator pods when you are using the latest weapon editor.

    In the aircraftdata.ini I´ve tried:

     

    [NOSE]

    ...........

    ...........

     

    SystemName[011]=TVCAM

     

    ...........

    ...........

     

    [TVCAM]

    ReferenceName=ARR-50 (For a test)

    SystemType=NAVIGATION

    CameraFOV=12.500000

    CameraPosition=0.000000,0.125000,0.000000

    CameraYaw=0.000000

    CameraPitch=0.000000

    CameraRoll=0.000000

    SightTexture=avq23sight1.tga

    EODisplayFlags=268500992

     

    but I didn´t get it works! :dntknw:

     

    Bye!!

    Hi guys! , I´m playing a little with the navigation pod (modding a little the TVfilter) and is cool and funny!

    (specially turning off the radar and using IR´s, and later seeing how your enemy launch flares and explodes! :crazy: ). Well. I´ve tried to make an "build in" (sorry my english) TV camera for using it at the F-14 (using as reference the Laser Designator of the A-10, which belong to the aircraft) but I didn´t get it.

    Some suggestions?

     

     

    PD:I am almost sure that there is no way to get an TV camera AND a radar working at the same time (It would be cool thought).

     

    PD2:There is a way to get REAL nigh vision for the cameras? (On the Weapons Editor I´ve seen an options called IR, but I think that it didn´t work properly)

     

    Bye!! :good:

    agent036, this is the F-8E Crusader with Shin Kazama´s skin by Ferrit. you cand find the plane here:

     

    http://www.column5.us/aircraft.shtml

     

    (scroll down)

     

    I´m finishing my pilot of Shin Kazama, but of firstly it needs an orange suit (OVA) and maybe a blue one (from the TV). Of course , I need to get the permision from the 3d model´s author to post it!. :sorry:

     

    Here are some pics from the OVA (I think this is better in many points than the TV serie) .See you later!! :ok:

    Hey, Hey my friends!!. I´m working on a few pilot´s skins based in Area88 (the Ova).Shin is almost done (with his helmet AND face),Micky is in boxes, and there are some pilots in progressing (Guyen, Greg...)

    I´ve heard that somebody is working in the F20 aircraft, so I am waiting the release to try the Shin´s skin.

    I´ll post some shots of Kazama (me :spiteful: ) ASAP in the members screenshots gallery (sorry, but i have not internet, and the files are on my personal HD!!).

     

    See you in Aslan!! :good:
