Well guys, that's fixed that... All I need do now, is write up the readme. This bird still has a little bit of a 'bobble' in level fllight, with plays havoc with the rockets, but that's just beyond me. It still works, though!! Expect this sometime tommorrow! And thank you gentlemen, I made a nuub mistake Wrench kevin stein

That would be used for your textureset ini; the part of the text added to the main ini that tells the skin what to do. Out of curiosity, IS there a textureset.ini with the skin??? Even if you add it to the F-4B.ini, you may still need one in the skin folder. What I need to see is there a decals.ini. That's what tells the game engine where, and what kind of, marking to add to the skin. Wrench kevin stein

I'll give that a try!! What I think I was thinking, was the distance from center of the model....not thinking that it's a seperte piece. note to self: remember basic decaling --- coords are from CENTER of mesh, not gobal model. Heck, I'll try anything just to finish this off!!! Ken, is this one any better??? Late-model J without rocket pods. Still need some better pictures for finish skinning it and the early J WITH pods... Wrench kevin stein

Good for you Kaizer!! As you requested, I edited you post to remove the picture link. If more people were as respectful as you towards others work, we'd have a lot less problems I thank you!!! Wrench Kevin Stein

Nice pilot skin!!! (this would be a lot easier if I could find my hex editor screen shot I made for the 'how to repaint a pilot' tutorial I never finished...) Most pilot figures have 4 files: Pilot**.bmp Pilot**.ini Pilot**.lod Pilot**_lod002.lod Personally, I've never seen the Falcon pilot figure...it' almost like it's built into the aircraft lod, but I could be wrong. Back to the subject at hand.... To get it to work, you need to use your hex editor, and search for "bmp". Now, the real trick, is in making sure YOUR pilot skin has the same amount of digits (the name length CANNOT exceed the original. That is... say the lod calls for Pilot07.bmp....that's 10 digits in length, including the file type suffix. So you only have 7 real places to work with. So, you just rename the pilot bmp to match, but keeping it identifiable. In your case, I'd use Pilt225.bmp. Back into the hex editor, you do a search again for the 'bmp'. Normally, each lod has 3 instances for it. You just re-type the new bmp name OVER ONLY THE FIRST SECTION OF BMP NAME, leaving the .bmp part alone. Now, since doing this would delete the original F-16 pilot, you do a "save as..." for each lod, and then you can rename it. NOW, you can use the full name, Pilot225. You do this for each pilot lod. Then you simply edit the ini to reflect the new lod names. Then, save the ini as Pilt225.ini . Then take all 4 (or in this case there seems to be 3 lods -- don't forget to edit them all), and toss the whole mess into the /objects/aircraft folder, as you normally do. You don't need to worry about the OUT file, that's generated when the lods are create in MAX, and has no bearing on this (unless you want to plot out decal positions for shoulder patches???) Then edit you're Falcon's data it to accept the new pilot: PilotModelName=Pilt225 ----------------- }{moderator mode ON }{ Now, there IS a problem with your skin: It's based off Diego's Sage Green, and he has pulled ALL his late model pilot skins, save a VERY few, from general usage. So, speaking as a CA Moderator, I'd reccomend NOT releasing this for the general public, but keep it for your own use. This will avoid a nasty scene for all parties involved. This goes for everyone -- you can do what you want in YOUR own games, but unpermissioned mods, and mods of items removed by their authors CANNOT be uploaded or shared on this or any other site. Please respect the author's wishes. }{moderator mode OFF}{ ------------- Wrench Kevin Stein

can you post the decals ini??? Wrench kevin stein

FOBS???? I'd also like to amend the previous statement on the Kytushas....we also have working SSMs on the ships, as well as land based (ie: Silkworms) Wrench kevin stein

Douglas B-66B Destroyer (by bunayp) Basically, the problem lies in the max diameter and max length specs in the bomb bay.

Oh, great, now I just have to figgur out where to put them.... Google Earth ain't gonna be much help now (not like DS and Iran/Iraq!!) where did I put that url for the Nike sites listing...... Here's what I did for WoE's Germany Map: Reusing the 'truck depot' parking lot Capun, how about some parked C-47s??? Can't go after "The Thing" with them, or search for John Wayne on his 'Island in the Sky'... Wrench kevin stein

I have the fix for it...also I'm updating the skins so they have new, individual serial and buzz numbers. 84th BS is nearly done, just having a small decal issue on the nose...as in too many for the mesh.

Sweet! DBS is one of my favorit maps... There's that new arctic Starfire skin I just released (with this in mind!), and I've almost got the D Scorpion arctic skin re-vamp ready, just having a small decal issue for the wing-tip rocket pods (as in the decals don't show up....) Will we be seeing Nike and HAWK batteries added??? I hope so!! If there's any stuff of mine you need, PLEASE use it!! Wrench kevin stein opps..forgot...Get ahold or Erik or Buff, and see if they can do for you like they did for us on the DS mod.

That person is called "the end user". The allows you, depening on the type of install you plan to use it in, make the choice of what to add. Obviously, I'm not going to add the Talos missile to my WW2 installs You know they're already in the pack, right???? My 19P/PM noses are just mods of those. Personally, I'd love to see it revamped...it's quite bloated with all the 'dummy' or training rounds. They alone must add over a hundred weapons types. Then, of course, there's all those nation-specific weapons to be found in the Loadout Thread in the knowledge base...I must have added a couple of dozen weapons for the "not US/Western and Soviet" users -- like Iran and India for example Plus upgrades or mods of existing weapons to 'improve' their capabilities (case in point: the S-5AA unguided rocked for the 17PF, and upcoming 17PF (SP-16) re-release. Or the tweeked Mighty Mouses (Mousi?) for the Scropion; or the 'jammer fix' for the aforementiond Mig noses and Skyhawk humps The list goes on.... But like Sony said, it 'proof of life' for the sim!

This will give you a nice skin, with the Arctic Red trim for those especially cold climates...such as found in Alaska or NW America. --- and let me tell, ya it really looks good against the snowy backgrounds!!! Historical accuracy is ONLY claimed on the first 4 serial & buzz numbers, as they were the only ones I had photos of. Also included is an updated data ini and the cockpit ini that will allow you to use the F-86D cockpit in your Starfire. The cockpit itself is NOT included, you'll have to copy over the cockpit folder from your Sabre-Dog. All inis and a few usefull bmps are provided, to make the switch over as easy as possible. This is Lexx_Luthor's fix, and all credit goes to him PLEASE!!!! read the enclosed readme for full, detailed, step-by-step instructions, and listing of credits. Enjoy!

Thanks Streak! The only thing I'm really having trouble with for the D (and the J I built off it), is a constant slow pitch up. Been tweeking the CG position, it seems to help, but I think Monty's old bird neds more help!! I just need better pictures for the J.....(both versions, with rocket pod tips and with fuel tanks) Wrench Kevin Stein

If you're talking about Edwards MTO map (for the easten Med) there's a major problem... Cyprus is probably on the other side of "The Wall". I can't remember if it's 10 or 50 km inside the map edges that are unsuable -- it may even be more like 100 km. You can add targets on the other side; I did it by mistake on the Darwin map, but you can't get there....you hit this invisible wall that you can't fly through, or around (something about the edges of the Discworld...the Great A'tuin don't want nobody to see him) If you look at hte planningmaps, and targets ini, there isn't anything over there, east of Greece. We might be able to add stuff in, what is it, Western Anatolia?? and maybe the far west end of Cyprus, but I honestly don't think it would work. Sorry to through a wet blanket on things... but it really looks like an entire new map would be needed, covering Turkey at least to the Bosporous, parts of Israel/Syria/Lebanon/Jordan, northern Egypt just to get the needed buffer zone for the areas needed. As to the 60% thingy, it's actualy 63%, or the difference between and mile and kilometer. Wrench kevin stein

File Name: MiG-19 New 1024x Natural Metal Skin File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 30 Nov 2007 File Category: Mig-19 MiG-19 Farmer New 1024x1024 Natural Metal Skin This is simply a re-do of the stock 3rd Wire MiG-19S Farmer-C skin into a larger, higher resolution unit. This is a simple replacement for you stock, itty-bitty ones. I call them 'semi-hirez', as they're only the 1024, which is a pretty good size for 98.6% of all the machines out there. All the panel and rivet lines have been redrawn, and it's painted a generic 'natural metal' color. Please see the enclosed readme for simple install instructions (nothing complicated this time!!! ) Enjoy! Wrench kevin stein Click here to download this file

Ok...got the PM from Mab about the targets, got the so-called "Cyprus Campaign"...and looked them over. That original thing is unfortunately built around the stock SF desert map...viturally unusable for what's wanted. The only map even remotely close would be Gepard's Israel 2...but still lacks mainland Turkey. The only thing that may be able to be done, is have Turkish AF bases in Syria or Lebanon. I can add target areas, with no real problems...but I can't flatten the ground for an airfield. A Master Terrain Guru would be needed for that, I'm just an acolyte! Which means, of course, the entire campaign ini would need rebuilding from scratch, as NOTHING that exists now is usable. Wrench kevin stein

I forgot to mention, this was made with Major Lee's DBS mod in mind. Next Up: upgraded 75th FIS F-89D Scorpion, with WORKING A-A unguided rockets!!! It's a repaint of the original skin, with new decals and inis. Weapons editor work will be necessary, so get ready... Time Frame: Less than 2 weeks!! Wrench kevin stein

Along the lines of 'lighted radio towers'....how about lighting up the oil drilling towers??? And.... you know you can define someplace as a runway, even without the airfield, as in having the 'runway' as a terrain object.... Now, I'm wondering if we could do that in reverse....have an airfield set to non-usage; ie, as in the comment out sections "NumSquadrons=0" I do remember something like this being done in the orignal DRV map, and it had to be eliminated, due to planes trying to take off from inside warehouses and the like. Or....modifying the airfield ini, to remove references to aircraft, and just allow it to 'be' there, so the lights can come on. This could be something interestering to explore....have a lighted oil field and refinery complex would look pretty damn good in the Iran/Irag, DS, and those I added to the ANW series.... Just some thoughts I'm not sure how to impliment... Wrench kevin stein

Avionics Fix for F3H-2M "Demon" (by Fox Montor) This actually came about accidentely, as I was looking at this cockpit for possible use on some of the Red Air birds badly needing some kind of radar-equiped cockpit -- we're still lacking a decent twin-engined one, btw (other than my repainted Phantom pits) At any rate, I was testing the radar on intercept mission, and noticed there wasno way to lock up targets for the Sparrows!!! The radar was simply acting ONLY in search mode, even though TRACK was listed. So, after comparing it with some other contemporay aircraft, I made the following changes.... It should be noted here, that I claim NO historicaly accuracy for this fix -- it is simply done to allow the missiles to work. First off, backup your original F3H-2M_avionics.ini. The simplest way to do this is, is open it in notepad and do a "save as..." and re-title it "ori-F3H-2M_avionics ini" Now, reopen the original, and copy/paste ALL the data below OVER all the existing data: You'll also want to activate the audio-only rwr (which was in the original), by copy/pasting the "F-4J_RWR.bmp" into the /cabina folder. What I had discovered was the "TrackCapabilities=" section was blank!!! Without this, the game engine couldn't use the radar lock-on bits in the avionics dll, so you couldn't lock a target, making your Sparrow's worse than useless (well, moreso than normal! ) The addition of the "BORESIGHT" mode is a guess on my part, but it is available on all the other USN/USAF radar equiped fighters from the same era (F-86D, F-94, F-89, possibly early F-8s), to say nothing of the birds on the other side of the fence; in fact the 17PF/19P/19PM seemed to only have search and borsight mods for the RP-1 and RP-5s. Happy Hunting! Wrench kevin stein

1) convert bmp to jpg, and upload to the Gallery here or a) to a free picture hosting site -- using those HUGE bmps costs bandwidth...let's try and keep it resonable, please? 2) weren't Bullpups retired in early 1980s???? I'd personally go with Hellfire, to be closer to the Dreamland versions, adding the needed internal laser designator (and possibly in internal bay ala Hammerheads), but that's just me. Also, I seem to remember The Great and Powerful Zur saying he'd be doing a better armed version. Wrench kevin stein
