or use an existing cockpit that already HAS the moving map display (like the A-7, iirc)

just to clarify something that many of you have mentioned: the source file(s) in question ARE freeware .. they were created by Cocas from scratch; I have all of them in my possession. But due to the usual Real Life ™ issues, he'd been "overcome by events", and is no longer in a position to carry on the work. The single model in question has already been exported, and is in game. It just needs a certain amount of refinement, clean up and the creation of distance lods (always a BIG help!) This IS the basic reason this discussion has been started. Carry on ...

Nyghtfall sent me his Firehog...and it really looks GREAT!! I repositioned the tank higher to make it look more like part of the airframe. Might still move it up a tad

I should think we need them! the Abrams we have now dates from 2008-ish. and your Patriots are much more detailed then those we now have

repainted Badger. it almost has that USAF "Arctic Scheme" look!!! Figuring out marking is next ...

the major question is: are there templates for Bucc?? Cause it's obviously gonna need a new paint job!! allen: you did the CDF OV10 didn't you?? Can you shoot that to me?

well, with a modified paint job.... still WIP, as I have to build the template

on the original DAT, iirc, Gramps. -------- here's an odd question: does it feel strange using one of your creations to shoot down another of your creations?? That's something that's always bothered me!!

Andover CC.2

I LIKE it!! Nicely skinned. You're using the stock 3w Hog? I take you've already faked in the "retardant bay" in the data ini? If you want, send it my way and I'll add it to the collection. I take you've seen the International Rescue Scooter in the 'What If.. screenshots thread? I put the IFR probe back simply because "they deploy worldwide", and it can be used for single-point refueling. The tanks are "fixed in place" and hold 300 gallons of retardant (one shot each) Works nice! What I'm having problems with are finding European and (former) Eastern Block aircraft. Other than the Beagle FF ... waiting for Veltro's new IL-76 to be finished, and so forth. France uses a number of former S-2 Trackers, which are not available.

here's Zur's Hellcat (a -5, without the back window), viewed in MAX. Almost all animations are there excepting the canopy. It's even skinned. (as a tga! would probably need redoing to jpg) It would be GREAT if someone could finish this. UV maps generated would be good, as would cutting the back window for the -3.

Something for the "Civil Mod". I haven't been able to get the theme music out of my head for 2 days!!!! (have to re-do the number decals on the Scooter to match the Galaxy, however)

it also depends if you're playing in SF2:NA. There have been many sound issues noted ONLY in the NA mods folders. The same sound in SF2, 2V, 2E, and 2I all play normally

How odd that so few people have reported this problem, when it's more than likely something fouled up on YOUR end. Basic diagnostic procedure that I had pounded into my head is thus: Common to one, or common to all?? If it you have more than one mods folder, you've not stated that it's doing it on ALL of them. Have you tested this?? Have you added a mod recently that may have an outdate or just plane wrong ini of some kind?? You've also given us exceeding little to go on .. things we'd need to know like OS? graphics card? which terrain? what things recently added? How about we try this --- cut out the affected mods folder -- just rename it. Hit the exe and allow a NEW one to be rebuilt. Don't add a thing to it, just fly a few mission stock. Report your back with your findings

the cockpit lod is most likely in Unicode, which is unreadable by 1stGens. In short, it wont work. Time to Evolve to SF2

no. delete EVERYTHING from the original and use ONLY the new stuff. It's all much better enjoy it brudda!

no. The 3M we have is easily down converted to the non-missile equipped -2 (and there's one skin already for it) Most -2s were USMC, and not really carrier ready. Unless someone starts fresh, I don't remember if Zur was ever doing the -4

Only CBI Lightning unit, 33rd FG, 58th, 59th, 60th & 459th FS**. converted from P-40s to P-38s from 11/44 ** transferred from 80th FG 5/45, but was activated 9/43 in theatre (Chittagong) with Lightnings

CL: I just check the Fury V2 download zip here at CA, and 333 is most definitely included. In fact, the pack is a bit heavy due to me forgetting to remove some of the old bitmap skins. Checking the main ini, VMF-333 is the last one listed. Please check again in game, if you would, and the folders themselves. It shows up for me!

the diagnostic procedures they taught us in (wrench bender school) always asks the 1st question: what did you change before the issue occurred? to me, it more sounds like an data ini issue than an aircraft lod issue. Did you copy/paste the weapons sections from one aircraft to another, and perhaps overwrote the originals with something that didn't match those positions? No 2 lods, expecially from different model makers, will usually have the same exact positions for things. But as it now working, it's all good !!

CL, this one?? I've got it my install. It wasn't included in the "newish" pak?? well, I can always upload it!!

dumb ass me!! I was looking in Aircraft!! See what happens when you old!! ??? I have all of the skins installed (looking at the aircraft's folder), but they weren't part of the pack. Paulo's work is OUTSTANDING!! ---------- Here's the FJ-3M pak (it's under F-86 Sabre) http://combatace.com/files/file/14053-sf2-naa-fj-3m-fury-ver2/

I swear I did an SF2 update for Skippy's Wyvern...but can't find it in the downloads. Maybe I never finished it??? Yes, Stary, that would be Zur's partly finished 86H. I have his F6F Hellcat max files, too. But it needs a LOT of reworking....sadly New Seahawks are definitely needed, if only to be reworked with folding wings for proper CV parking. Wish we could get buny's max files...which probably don't exist anymore

only the Iowas can be returned to service -- and that would take a long time (maybe 1 year or more, iirc). the others are too 'far gone' as museums to even be considered for refits
