Bump to notify that ver 1.1 has been uploaded wrench kevin stein

not that I've ever seen.... The way I've done mine (in regards to SF2), is extract all the menu screens from the MenuData.cat -iirc-, and then start building NEW layers of the various 'thingys' directly OVER the existing parts.. the blackboard, any seperator lines, etc and so forth. Then, you can change the background, via another layer to whatever you want in the SF2 downloads section, although this won't help 1st Gens since the hot spots are in a different places, you'll find my menu screen templates. At the least, it'll give you an idea or starting point to see how its done. http://combatace.com/files/file/10944-sf2-series-menu-screen-templates/ like I said, these are SF2 only, but can work as a 'teaching tool' wrench kevin stein

Probably Ace Combat... wrench kevin stein

"We have found the enemy fleet....dasvidanya, comrades!" When I took the shot, I actualy heard Yogi Bear's voice in my head!!! (well, along with all the others!!) damn things are almost impossible to kill ... all 4 of my Skystreaks and Sidwiders - spoofed half of them, hit with the gun (which jammed half way through), and the bugger just kept on flying! Gonna start arming my Tornado's with Genies!!! (no, not really) wrench kevin stein

So, does that me we're all buying for him??? Happy Birthday Eric!!! wrench kevin stein

Happy Birthday Enrico!!! Have a GREAT one!!! wrench kevin stein

Why, hello there Mr. Bear! wrench kevin stein

well, with any luck the revamped Libya terrain will be out by the weekend, giving the Turkey's a better sandbox to play in. Just need more Libyan birds for them to shoot down!!! (now, if I could only fix the 'leaking mountains...') wrench kevin stein

I feel your pain ... having had to do 300 decals for my ETO "What If..." B-29, and nearly that many for the historical PTO version It's a real bummer when you KNOW someting should work, and then it dosn't. Been there, got the scars! wrench kevin stein

WRONG!!!! Never, never, a thousand time NEVER EVER change the operation years in the aircraft's data ini, unless creating a country-specific version that ONLY fits within a certain years grouping This is the thread in the KB you want: http://combatace.com/topic/38609-adjusting-the-games-start-year/ wrench kevin stein

you have the WW2 nations ini, in the ETO (and PTO!) installs?? Adjusted start dates in the options.ini and singlemission ini??? of course -dumb question!!- you have luftwaffe birds installed in your ETO set up? wrench kevin stein

Brother, you're FAR braver than I am ... I'm an acrophope!!! Never get me on one of them contraptions!!! wrench kevin stein

make sure you have the latest DX9 loaded too ... I had to do that on this new machine when I reinsalled the 1stGens. DX10 don't work on them, and dosne't seem to mind having it's older sister hanging around <grin> wrench kevin stein

I have a lot of those books ... even though I can't read the langauge, the pictures are GREAT!!! That's AD's Oscar Ki-43 (actually a Ki-43-Ia). My craptastic template is for Wolf's (Ki-43-I) I never finished re-building AD's Oscar template. It's yours if you want it! here's the Zekes template, complete with all the bits I used for all my skins. Just give credit to Volksjager, who did one or 2 of hte original skins, and me for the template. mapping is teh same for the A6M2 and A6M5. You'll see the added bit fro the later 4-wing gun versions, even though we don't ahve the extra gun barrels. wrench kevin stein

looks like mesh flaws. I wouldn't use them; the only way to fix that would be to rebuild those meshes in MAX, and create a new LOD. Doubt that'll happpen can you repaint the hubs on 6.bmp? looks like all the wheels use the same mapping.. wrench kevin stein

Can't find the screenie of the 'fixed' version, but picutre in your mind metalic black gun barrels... assuming use of my desert air force 213 squadron skin (change the pointer as necessary), here are the decals.ini entries, renumber as needed.

I've fixed a LOT of issues like that with a simple decal. wrench

decals on the cannon barrels. those sections of the LOD are unmapped. give me a few, as I'll hae to find the bits (the tga, and decals ini, let alone where I put the PTO instal...) wrench kevin stein

Did you put the modified ini (IsrealME.ini) into the mods folder ... Terrains/IsrealME. You'll have to create the IsrealME terrain folder just for that ini Desert dosen't use it, neither does GermanyCE VietnamSEA does, so you'll need to do the same thing with it wrench kevin stein

win95/98 compatibility mode set on the 08 WepEditor? as, check the loadout ini, make sure it's pointing to the correctly named tank wrench kevin stein

You want the template for AD's Zeke? (how do you think I made MY skins! Homegrown templates!) BTW, don't know if you know this, but the Pearl Harbor and Midway Kate skins for DATs B5N are at my site only. The rest should be here (Zeke, Val, George, Oscars, etc) If it's DAT, its at my site, if its from Wolf or AD, it's here Never did anything with the Jill or Nick; never found the time. My Oscar template ain't all that great.... wrench kevin stein edit -again- simmer's paint shop has a IJ markings/numbers template that has the correct font for the IJN tail numbers.

I know on the Zeke's it was used to help 'hide' the oil stains and other engine blow back. But I've hardly seen it on IJAAF aircarft, mostly just IJN r5: specificly, its an A6M2, most likely Type 21, as used for the first 2 years (well, after the USA entry) into the war. Had been used by IJN units over Southern China mid-late 41, after that they were needed "elsewhere" raven: Tinian (sp?) group markings? wrench kevin stein edit: had to find the damn books...

Yes, you'll have to do ALL the stock terrains. Add-on terrains (all that I"m aware of), don't have the 'fixed dates' line. Yet wrench kevin stein
