  1. @Muesli chill bro, i'm definitely not a courageous and magnanimous and not a keyboard warrior. but i agree with you on "dumbass" and anyway im glad you know about what's happening here. we do. i just want this to end, i apologize if i made you all angry. do what you guys think it's right.
  2. @Jimbib im not seeking financial help, im defending the freeware policies. its not only about me. it doesn't even matter how i'm here guys, All i wanted to do was to share some ideas and now i understand that the main problem is not even important for you guys at all.
  3. @Wrench yeah definitely "p". what else? what did you expect? at least i didn't make like 5 accounts to override the download limit and i always respected the mod authors like you and others, i even tried to make some mods yet i was not successful. if you like to report or ban or whatever, no problem at all, you're the boss man, and this platform is not gonna be usable or useful for me anymore. anyway this is getting far from the subject
  4. so what do you want me to do with it? i just told my reason to not donating or purchasing stuff and i said there are some users like me which we have limitations due to our regions. i'm just giving advises. which i think you guys proved that its not important at all. happy flights and landings. peace.
  5. logan4, don't change the subject man, i don't remember i said "i can do it". just mentioned that "i like to" because i like CA and their modders and been here for happy 2 years and the experience was fun. but as a user if i had a way to do so, i definitely would but there's no way for me to do it. and anyway, if nobody's donating anything or that much to the website dev team, its not my problem. payed content which they include freeware huh? so whats the point of "free plan" and freeware licenses AND freeware content overall quality? maybe CA have to focus more on other sims like DCS of BMS and increase it's activity to keep the community alive rather than loosing users. my advice is to have free plan with more limitations including speed limitations for downloads plus more ads rather than locking-up the whole place, just like other communities.
  6. very interesting!! so whats the point of having freeware "community" mods? i understand the problems of maintaining the website and the database but the fact is, its impossible for some of us to purchase a subscription because of our countries. for example i live in Middle East, Iran. there's no way for me to purchase a subscription at all ! although i really love to help and donate. so basically with all respect, from now this community (for SF series) is dead for me. and as long as there's no other alternatives to CA, so the game is dead for me. this is not whining Yakarov79 it's objection, it's something that people like you might never understand. anyway, with all respect to CA and mod authors and other modders, paying for freeware without having any other free plans is unacceptable. my advice is to set the download limit to 2 or 1 per day for each regular account as "free plan" with more download speed limit.
  7. LOD Exporter for Blender

    any plan for 2.8+ support?
  8. F-16 Cockpits with NVG

    hey what's up I didnt know where to ask ,so... can you make the hud just a little bit shorter on both types of viper huds? tbh i think they're very tall anyway, the model is sooooo good.
  9. Hey guys I'm telling these points to share some ideas of mine for things we can improve. ( I might be wrong at some points ) There are 2 factors that will make a flight sim to have a high populated community: 1.Graphics 2.Multiplayer At the first stage I think we should work on high res - high detail textures to bring HDR feeling and also some more creativity to bring some better lightings to the game. then we should make little changes to some .LOD models under license of original developers because for example for cockpit shadows we need to make the models to have no holes AND we should add some better reflections to some models and etc. right now, with editing only .ini files, the game is better than ever + having reshade will give you some fun times flyin' but that's not enough! then we should modernize the user interface of some parts like mission editor and etc. For multiplayer, there are some disabled stuff within the .ini files that makes you to ask " Why? " and I know y'all know about them. but with lot of coooo0o0odings and developing some 3rd party stuff we can just try. I mean there are some games like Skyrim or whatever which they don't have any multiplayer functionality but there are some mods to let players, play the game online with friends. and yes, it's very hard to do it for this game but I thinks it's not impossible or as I said before ,maybe I'm wrong. we should spend lot of times for the game and yes, I know that most of the mod makers which they have some cool and nice information about the game engine and other details, they're all offline since many years ago. I think we can revive the game and the community with these 2.
  10. Well while i was testing diffrent planes before everything, i noticed that the TMF Parani Saegheh ( Iranian V tailed F-5 ) plane, has cockpit shadows in alternate way! maybe that trick which TMF used for that plane should be helpful to fix this in my opinion the problem is like this: while we're in cockpit views, game can't detect the outer frame ( the plane fuselage and nose ) to make it cast shadow on cockpit 3D model! so that's why we see wrong shadows because light was passed through the outer frame instead of make the outer frame draw its shadow on the pit AND it seems like pit 3D models are some sort of transparent from outside so cockpit 3D model shadow casts from wrong side! I THINK if we make the external view model cast shadow on the internal view model, the problem is solved then I also noticed that there're some other options for LODs in Shadow section in .INI files but I still don't know much about them
  11. Hi everyone! after few miles of scrolling .INI files and testing everything on the game FINALY: " Cockpit Shadows " !! --! enabling process is same for each plane ! -- --! enabling process should apply on each plane you like to have cockpit shadows on 'em ! -- --! Be Advised !: This "Cockpit Shadows" has some little BUGs so we all should work on it together to make it better !-- It's better than nothing :D * Q: How to enable Cockpit Shadows? - A: All you need to do is to make a .INI file with the same name and right at the place your chosen plane cockpit 3D file ( .LOD ) is located. Example: !! [ Cockpit file are located at the folder with the same name (most of the times) ] !! SHO to Viper team F-16 BLK 30 to act like a test plane here the plane's Cockpit 3D model is the LOD file named " Cockpit_F-16C_B30.LOD " and above of that, our personally made .INI file; Now Inside the .INI file we should drop this : [Shadow] CastShadow=TRUE ShadowCastDist=5000 MaxVisibleDistance=800 ------------------------------------------------- * you are free to change the numbers ------------------------------------------------- here's an example file which you have to change it's name to the plane's cockpit file name ! plane's cockpit file name.INI *with this simple trick you can enable shadows for every .LOD file. feel free to ask. alexis99 thanks for that little help sorry for bad English :) hope ya'll enjoy! one love. plane's cockpit file name.INI
  12. You were right it's all about LODs I'm making a new Topic for it
  13. Guys!!! I FOUND A WAY !!! It has some bugs but IT'S WORKING !!!
  14. thank you guys! one love I also found a way to increase the clouds drawing distance in ENVIRONMENTSYSTEM.ini file but i'm still testing it well I didn't search for clouds drawing distance, I'm just testing it for fun. If there were no topics about it, I'll add one. right now i'm working on pit shadows and i found a very easy way to enable it, but configuration is some sort of manual for each plane but it works fine :D I'll write about it soon.
  15. Hi every one! Is there any way to increase visibility range / distance ? well i couldn't find any discussion about it using the search bar so, i'm sorry if i'm asking the topic for another time.
