  2. normally i believe rolling radius has something to do with this. [NoseGear] SystemType=LANDING_GEAR .... .... RollingRadius=0.41 CastoringWheel=TRUE CastoringNodeName=NLGCastor but in your case, wait until the ramp concrete has set before parking seriously though, someone else will likely chime in with better info. but i recall this for minorly sunken tires, and iirc even to fix helos blowing up at mission start.
  3. GKABS, while it seems a pain i do ask that you reconsider on the cockpit windows. there are some amongst us (more than just me ) that like flying the big birds in game. to paraphrase someone in another thread, "sometimes its more fun trying to do you mission and avoid the defenses than blasting away". the regular windows i would understand and they can paint in without immersion loss. but a painted in cockpit window is a bit much, even for an AI only plane. that said, will you be doing a CFM powered version also? that brings in several other aircraft like the E-6, and Boeing iirc was doing that for most foriegn customers after the Saudis requested it on their E-3s, and KE-3s (which is a tanker based on the 707-320 airframe rather than the KC-135)
  4. Two-Seater Tuesdays

  6. just some cool in game shots while checking....
  7. James, as gp advice ultimately you should get all of them as each contributes a little something to the experience. but i understand budgets too, it took me about 4 years or so to get to full 5+2 merged (5 games and 2 expansion packs). taht said, get what is most interesting to you by era or need first, then the others as able. but then above and beyond the stock games is the thousands of mods here, and the ability to make your own if you dont like what you see.
  8. i've seen that somewhere before..... but pretty sure you all havent seen this be awfully nice if they were on the way to Sarejevo (hint hint nudge nudge)
  9. trim and peek, trim and peek.............. thank you (for the millionth time) Mue! can be a pain with only oblique shots of the top......
  10. dont know if we have a AIM-92 Stinger (most likely with Apache if we do), but that would be a better fit than Sidewinder mandatory screenies, but didnt you have something similar working? (i dont mean the prop jobs )

  13. the particular airframe appears to be privately owned. as such some license may have been taken with markings (if the camo wasnt a clue) the bit about 106 Sqn IDFAF logo adds questions, not answers as the pic is a good match for a modern, clean version of that .

  19. now its clearer. not being a modeller i was a little lost. i can do much with jpg once its done, how you guys get soo much as a blank texture to work on is cloudier for me at v2k: ok im lost. mil version of 777?
  20. it would be appreciated, esp for the early 90s timeframe (when most of my modding takes place). there is a C-130H-30 coming soon, and France and Kuwait are top of the list for that model, but i know France also had 3 non stretch H models as well. serials would esp. be a big help are the serial showing up in game? this started for another project (under wraps for a few more weeks) and a photo from dstorm.eu showed a KC there without refuel pods acting as regular transport. That version had all listed, this version that is currently H only should be ini restricted to just teh H serials (C-130H first then KC-130H in the numberlist). that way, when the KC-130H is ready, i can just use the same decal folder. also, is the wing number a recent change? all source pics i referenced were 31-xx. but i did not search much past 1994 given the scope of my project EDIT: pics on airliners.net and dstorm.eu show how i have it on there before 1994, then the 50 series after 1994. will do a little more digging, but barring a great revelation it will likely stay teh same as the mod is Euro Herks in the 80s. thank you tho for the input and spot checking just means i'll have to do another sub folder for post 94 main references for general knowledge were airliners.net, airbritianpics.co.uk and c-130.net as well as World Air Power Journal Vol 18
