My next terrain project
daddyairplanes replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
i dont have the bit in messenger anymore, but the frontman for YAP-RW figured out a way to do decals on statics. i forget the specifics but the general idea was that he made them as ships rather than airfield objects last i saw he had different numbers on C-17s on the ramp but that was the extent. could be useful in the same fashion that my tga based airliner skins are (when they are whats parked on ramp) for airliners, tankers and cargo planes (the last two rarely deploying as a whole unit in theater) again thank you. wasnt trying to start nothin, but i did put some time in on that one there, working with Ed from the beginning on it. heworked me out on skin and tga placement, and i reciprocated with model fix requests! -

daddyairplanes replied to toot's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
input from the skinner side of house you will get better skins if you have several textures rather than all on one. it doesnt need to be a dozen or even TKs usual 5, but loading all on one means you are making everything smaller to fit on one space. yeah you could go big (2048 or 4096 px)but if you did that why not break things up (say a fuselage/tail grouping and a wings. engines/ various parts grouping) for more detail. sorry, i do not know how you would do that in blender (barely got the hang of it in Maya) but end user wise, all on one can be a pain for anything outside of a weapon or small ground vehicle -

Your favourite aircraft to fly. And why?
daddyairplanes replied to Mr_Tayto's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
depends on what im working on, some are quite fun to fly while others are pigs that im putting lipstick on in general, i do prefer the air to ground and support mission sets, and typically fly the jets best suited to that (A-10s, A-7s, F-4s and the range of heavies) -

heavy duty scientific wildass guess time the Kadena RFs went to Taegu in 1989, being stationed there for one year before the 15th TRS disbanded the squadron stayed the 15th TRS, and took all the aircraft that were at Kadena .but changed units from the 18th Tac Fighter WING to the 460th Tac Recon GROUP this is based off of book reseach and two (yes only two) pics. so the GU skin will be highly.... suppositional. not what if but not as spot on as i like either. one of two pics i can base off of -
how to make 4096 x 4096 textures
daddyairplanes replied to ravenclaw_007's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
in win10, i've never had any issue with using GIMP and yours (or yakarov's) 4096 temps. and im using the same graphics as your gaming system i would suggest trying one of the free programs for your upscaling at least. that way if you hate GIMP or PaintNet you're not out any money. -
This Day in History Screenshot Thread

10 May 1972, one of the busiest of the air war over North Vietnam with the commencement of Operation Linebacker 11 VPAF fighters would be shot down that day (including 3 by Showtime 100 crew of Cunningham and Driscoll, becoming the only USN aces of the war) vs 2 Phantoms each from the Navy and USAF (including Showtime 100, downed by a SAM after its third kill) -
