'Rising Sun' It'll be the same as YAP, meaning packages of item, missions, terrains, aircrft/ground objects. Supposed to cover the war from Pearl Harbor to The Surrender. They been advertising it for nearly a year over at SHQ wrench kevin stein

ok, about 10 minutes work ... took Mike's F-4D Loran V.3, did a little tweeking the decals ini, converted the towel rack to a pilot seat, used the stock F-4D_67, and it's skins, Mike's decals, etc (btw, I DID create it as a new plane, F-4D_LORAN, just to be safe as I'm a great believer in CYA!!) Love the decals! The pilot tags on the canopy, aircraft number INSIDE the gear door!! WOOT!! .. too cool!! No issues that I can see! Left the loadouts stock The only thing I'd really do, is resking it, and add the slimers tothe skin template, and remove those as decals. But it works PERFECT just like this! wrench kevin stein

well, control/I will it shut it off, and resart. AFAIK, there's no plans for TK in implement the 'blip switch' wrench kevin stein

that can be a problem if the code letters are part of the stripe (like how TK does them - one right, one left) wrench kevin stein

I thinks I like the grays better meself!!! wrench kevin stein

is that MAX render, Mike?? Looks AWESOME! If they're seperate aircraft (ie: newish), they should drop it with minimal muss and fuss! wrench kevin stein

Excuse me ... but when I went to school, the next number in sequence after 2099 was 2100, NOT 3000. IIRC, FastCargo might have mentioned that in YOUR other thread?? wrench kevin stein

<cought> Fake Pilot <cough> use the F-4D_67, add the rack via aforementioned method. You'll have to extract the skins from the ObjectData006 (don't forget the drop tanks!) Do the decals ini dance, etc. Shouldn't be too hard ... I'll give it alook when I have a chance ... in "2 weeks" wrench kevin stein

allen: My paperback is the REEEELLLLLY old one, with the embosed Phantom. My hardback has just the title words. I don't recall if they never really said. Somewhere I do remember it mentioning camo -- can't remember if it was while at RAF Stonewood, or Rat A$$; although the 3-tone would be fairly good fit for the Gulf. Wouldn't be too difficult to redo in Gray. (which would match the Weasels when CJ Conlin shows up) Opinions needed ... given the time frame of late 80/early 90s ... maybe gray WOULD be better. Speaking of RAF Stonewood...fixed the decal issue. Dopey me has the right and left decals switched, so left is right and right is left and "Wrong Is Right" (if it dosen't happen on TV, it dosen't happen" wrench kevin stein

I'd thought about that, too. Orignally based at Alexandria West; what Code? AW? AX? Made the "ST" for those players that want them on the Germany/Europe map (can't use SW as that's Shaw) for RAF Stonewood, but they're not showing up for some reason. I may have the lettering backwards -- meaning left decals is actually the right side. Sill experimentating. The switch SHOULD be a simple edit of the decals to "name" the other taill/tailr decals (named TailL2, TailR2) summat like this: Although, on mine I use Level=0, since it's a dedicated skin, and the squadrons aren't listed in the SquadronList.ini Should be the same positioning for any other E as well. I'm using the _78, as the book describes the long-barreled version (after the Libyan Mig kill, when Locke's aircraft is being inspected .. the shot-off section of the housing, for the round exploding in the muzzle) wrench kevin stein

I'd say that worked .... now, just need to do up a read me, and the tail badges for Stonewood...(just in case someone wants to fly in Europe, you know?) wrench kevin stein

thanks guys!! GREAT news for the Triple Nickel!!! wrench kevin stein

I want to get the guys to start releasing aircraft for Indo-Pak soon; the terrain is complete Iran/Iraq??? "2 weeks" KAW? who knows ... major progress in being made on new birds, now that the prop issue has been fixed. wrench kevin stein EDIT: forgot the data ini!! Back up original, then just drop this in

sorry to be late Jeff!! Happy Burpday!! wrench kevin stein

The Warbirds.... (gotta LOVE Ant's templates!!)

Air Force that's looks pretty much what I'm looking for!!! Thanks Raven! Now, it's a simple repaint of the fin tga .... and a full wing will soon be done. (seen screenshot thread for sample) btw, anyone know the mesh name for the RHAW bump on the aft edge of fin? Decals don' seem to want to appear on it looked at stock decals ini, and the LOD with my handy-dandy hex editor....or is it NOT supposed to be painted? wrench kevin stein

aren't those set in MAX??? Or is it ini-adjustable??? Damn, I wish I know more about 3d stuff!! wrench kevin stein

there's a line missing on the reverse of that bill.. It's supposed to say "In G*d We Trust" and below the ONE "All Others Cash Only" wrench kevin stein

well, there IS a keystroke to 'turn off the cockpit'. It's sort of a cheat, but... wrench kevin stein

do you still want the SF2-updated Persian Guld data ini? wrench kevin stein

Easter Egg

EPIC!!! wrench kevin stein

forgot to mention... in the Formosa terrain targets upgrade I did, since it uses the same Gepard airbases ™, you can use those airfield inis, and get parked planes. ---- easiest thing to do...install SFP1, patch to 08, copy/paste the Desert.cat into the folder with the SF2 ones, then extract the terrain, throwing out EVERYTHING but the desert.ini desert_data.ini create a "Desert" folder in the /Terrains folder (might have to create THAT too) in whichever install you're using, drop the desert.ini and desert data ini in there. Then, you'll need to EDIT the statements for the shaders in the data ini, bringing up to DX10/SF2 standard. If/When you get to that point, let me know, and I'll shoot you one already done up. Problem solved (but, at some point you still might WANT to get SF2) Iran/Iraq is in final testig ... check the screenshot thread for previews wrench kevin stein

"All IF Well" ???? Is now when the dreaded Yeti/Sasquatch Invasion happens? I, for one, welcome our new hisurite Overlords...they give out snow-cones! wrench kevin stein (guess I better regrow my beard ... again)
