try opening the BMP file fr the skin with a photoshop program. if you dont have a dedicated program open it with Windows Paint. rotate it 180 degrees and save. then see if that works for you.

curious suhsjake where do you go for AT? i went to Bliss in may. that was an... interesting experience however it did get me back in the game. finished a project with Phantoms that had been in the works since 09. whodathunkit.. i did the decals for reserve units from Texas while training in TX!

i'll admit it, damn near pissed myself one time round midnight on Graf, had just passed that sign when MLRS rockets go off right in front of us. mind you i'm in a 5 ton with NODs on and got blinded then blinded again when i snapped the things off! nother time OPFOR Huey simulates Hind attack, and i swear i could see the pilots patch! Tornado's and F model Phantoms were a pretty regular sight too tho i never saw them that low myself.

ahh but in reference to my earlier post Mr Spinners..... what brand sponsors them? sadly with our congresses refusal to export Raptors AND the commander in chiefs insistence that 187 is perfectly enough AND the fact that lees means they cost more.... that might not be what if in 10 years time.

well sheesh and i was kidding about broken glass. if its request hour then with Stary's new tileset we need "convoys" of neutral Mercedes and BMWs, maybe an opel or two as well. to tool along the roads ya know. and some "caution low flying aircraft signs for near Graf and Hohenfels!

now that would be an effect to mod! breakin glass and number of angry phone calls to base in your stats at the end of the mission

however ObjectCat2 and lods will remain unreadable. thats a preventing sticky fingers issue, not an extractor issue.

i tend to get my fill of chicks in uniform (us and other countries) on deployment. curse the luck of alway deploying to airbases and its harder for me to get caught looking by mommyairplanes

come on now thats just silly. the fighters are sponsored by soft drink companies!

@ Ceasar the 102 doesnt have a gun, but the Six does! i forgot that while it is still designed for being a fast genie lobber, it actually handled very well esp in the later years. it was being considered by Gen Agan, head of ADC during Vietnam, to be deployed for escort duty up north! the "bubble" canopy, gunpod and ariel refuel capability are results of his desire to get into the game!

i freakin love Stary's new Germany.....

one thing i like about being on a laptop. it goes with me EVERYWHERE and i watch it like a hawk! cussed my daughter (yes i did) just for swiping a finger over the mouse and bringing it out of sleep while i was gettin lunch ready even. still sorry to hear bout your troubles.

with both the drawdown in American forces after the Gulf War and the reversal of fortunes for Pan American airlines, the DOD decided to subcontract out the operation of the E-3A fleet in 1992. Pan Am had just one stipulation on operated these aircraft....

Ceasar, thought the Voodoo was designed as a long range escort fighter it was a VERY unforgiving plane and liked to spin at too low an airspeed or high an AOA. and with its super high wing loading low airspeed was pretty high and high AOA was pretty low! its main two useful roles were as a one way nuclear bomber and recce bird, both down low and bbblazin fast. and i didn't typo blazin! Recce voodoos even went faster in vietnam than the Phantoms they were supposed to replace. but as a fight i believe its settled on role was actually as a Genie launcher. matter of fact on a side note most of the century series was built for one of two things.. speed or nuclear capability. missile were to make dogfighting obsolete. unfortuneatly Mikoyan didn't get the memo. and then we were needed to work on Saturday....

in ways mankind has learned from the two world wars. in those almost every available weapon hass been used and without any consideration for non combatants. the ultimate weapon has only been used twice, both in Aug 45. since then the thought of crossing the threshold and commiting suicide as a species has limited the vast scope of warfare. however mankind still has an innate aggressiveness that at national levels will lead to some form of conflict. in this day of instant media however the conduct of the warriors is held to closer scrutiny. as aggravating as that is for our soldiers in the current conflicts, it leads to restraint by the forces with greater destructive capacity. in its long convoluted way that is what can be learned from the Great War and WWII.

damn nice Stary. we like it at least... this one is for Spinners. playin with something else when i noticed this would work...

honestly like the man said. i decided to finish my Phantom mod which of course you have to load to see if things are right. once i started doing that i would tak some checks and decide to fly the mission. more underlying than the will to fly in game is everything else in RL going ok?

on several of the gunny pack mavericks they are called out but adding a number or leaving out a number or all small in one and all large in the data.inis. little tiny discrepencies that cause it to not read. i asked the question back in kandahar in 09 fixed it and honestly forgot about it until recently. but it was an issue with several of the later model mavericks in there. example ModelName=AGM65G2 but LOD FileName=AGM65G or AGM65g or AGM-65G you get the idea.

tried out Stary's new GermanyCE tonight.. and even got a pleasant suprise when two Fishbeds popped up in front of me. look at the Sparrows fired vs Migs downed!

i'm good with the skins. have the blank tail template for sundowners hi-rez set and workin on a decal package much like my Phantom package. hey what can i say, Wrench must've slipped subliminal messages that i will use decals1 cant wait to see the skins though, will add some flavor to my Viper mix til i get my project further along...

ok so i need to make em small, and pop two on either side of the center line. and tweak and startup and curse the misplacement. rinse wash repeat! as to the Sentry i know its generally found in NF series, who does it belong to? a NATO-OTAN skin shouldn't be to hard i think. Luxembourg serials....hmmmmm

honestly when he trusts us again. i wouldnt hold my breathe

ObjectCAT2 has the aircraft LODs in it and TK has locked it away from us. i guess someones been a s**thead with them and so he had to lock them up but no you wont get access to #2.

scratch what i previously wrote
