Here is another FM revision for the D.Va this time, made by gavagai, from RoF Forums: I have prepared gavagai's Mod to be used not only in QC, in easy to enable JSGME format. Alb D.Va 680kg 190hp_gavagai.7z Please download again, I have revised the file due to folder naming error (D.V instead of D.Va) if you got the original file it will change the D.V FM...

WOFF: Screenshots and Videos

Nice skin, Olham! sporting your ghost greyish lilac... Remember the headache it gave us trying to configure that hue? I have done some work myself on the type, mostly correcting things Arto missed or misinterpreted, in his new, fabulous D.V-D.Va template. I have reworked some details of the old template I will sent them to you, if you want. Here is what I have done so far on the default D.V skin (by Arto) (after his given permission) 1. Added missing bolts to the fuselage below cockpit. 2. Removed from the starbord side the rigging instructions sheet. (could be on either side, most commonly port, but not in both) 3. Changed the nose Idflieg and factory placards with proper Johannisthal ones (Arto was using OAW type) on the nose and added them on the wings as well. 4. Added bases to the strut braces. 5. Removed the wing root rigging loop base to it's proper position. (now corresponds to the actuall rigging of the 3d model as well) 6. Removed the default "Nicht auftreten!" inscrtiption and replaced in proper position. 7. Added the wing pulley inspection hatch on the upper wing and missing sets of bolts in the surrounding area. (pulley hatch doesn't look perfect... too much stretching up there...) Also changed colour to the portrayed Teves & Braun radiator (should be left bare metal instead of painted in primer colour). Few things still left to do, for example the upper wing cross on the right side is a bit misplaced (should be shifted a bit to the wingtip)... but it's kind of tricky to do now and no one will notice the difference. It would be great if we had basic layered templates to start from like in RoF. -

Aris cloud Mod looks spectacular but I realised, from using it and it's also clearly demonstrated on your screens Adger, that I can easily pick out repeating patterns of cloud shapes... Something that couldn't do with default WOFF clouds (at least so easily). -

What mods do you have planned?
elephant replied to DukeIronHand's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
I want to remake the Albatros D.III skins. IMHO, they are not in the high standard the D.V-s are, mostly based on outdated data. I have done some retouching in small details to the excellent D.V-s as well, but for the D.III-s I'm afraid I have to work from scratch... Here is what I have done so far on the default D.V skin (by Arto) (after his given permission) 1. Added missing bolts to the fuselage below cockpit. 2. Removed from the starbord side the rigging instructions sheet. (could be on either side, most commonly port, but not in both) 3.

Experimenting with SweetFX, fiddling around with Para-Bellum's settings (a little les bloom, a bit of bleach). With SweetFX, everything look like they have more "volume", don't you think? Merry Christmas! -
What's your first WOFF campaign(s) going to be?
elephant replied to DukeIronHand's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
I want to fly my favorite Albatros D.V and summer 1917 is the right time. Actually, I have started several Careers ( Jasta 16b, Jasta 32b, Jasta 6) but WOFF 's proven damn hard to master! (It's not only the deadly AI, you have to count the random mechanical failures as well) I keep getting killed-captured after a few days in service... -

Surprise at landing - what a debut flight
elephant replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
I was wondering where have you been? Is it surprise that I had the very same first steps in WOFF? Only difference I wanted to fly the new D.V and chosen a Summer of 1917 starting date. I was posted to Jasta 16b led by Otto Kissenberth. My first ever confirmed kill in WOFF, was a claim with no witnesses from my squad mates. I got seperated during a dogfight, opened the TAC trying to find them back and saw an order under it: "Descent and run to the nearest friendly airfield - (name I don't recall)" So I headed there. When arrived I saw AAA fire from the airfield ground defence. It was a lone N.23 which I duly downed. In the claim form, I wrote the incident and name of the airfield (not being sure even about the spelling) I didn't believe that the claim would be ever confirmed but it did! I was awarded a Goblet for it too. Sadly a couple of days later I got killed when my engine failed on take off... So sad but on the other hand so realistic! -
Question for our historians...

The wanted to eliminate every possibility for the eye (from distance) to confuse it with a cockade. -
I made a recolouring attempt on an England tile to see how it looks. What to you think? Crude?

It's in my to do list, as soon as I find some time... I asked the same question in SimHQ: The terrain looks fantastic! I wonder, souldn't the weat fields in spring be kind of light greenish? Answer by Polovski: Some of the finest flight sim scenery out there. One day we'll have the mouse in your tent, steam from you tea, and someone will say mmm "would cheap frontline WW1 tea really produce that much steam?"

I had no problems whatsoever, download or installation wise... My only problem is that it's 3.00 in the morning...

Anyone knows when the Skins Addon will be available?
-
If you add the 24,99 $ for the skin pack, seems quite expensive...but worthwhile. The D/L site says who have authorisation for 10 downloads. PS: There is also a small update (WOFF v 1.1) available at the Downoads page of the WOFF site:

I don't have your templates Diego...I was talking about mine. I give credit to the people I borrowed elements from, including you. When I was talking about templates I meant extracting some skins out from, not distributing, anyway. -

elephant replied to ianh755's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Hi Ian, I can't help you about the ID of the creator of this pilot, but back in the days I had made a bunch of more detailed Israeli pilot skins... After a while it became a joint project with X-Ray, alas never to be completed and released. I think I have kept the templates somewhere. Are you interested? http://combatace.com/topic/55090-israeli-daf-pilots-by-elephant-wip-update/ -
