Workin' on Hunter FR.10 mod I noted that RCN camera (as for ex. in Yak-27R, Yak-28R etc.) doesn't work after June patch.

Sob.

Very good idea Kevin!

I have only to say that I have some Austrian skins (and not only) in the makings (very slowly - not an high priority job) on my HD.

Paul

I'm very sorry (I don't like make packs and upload ...).

Here the missed sounds: Sounds.rar

But please don't rename Lightning foldre or numbers will not work .....

After almost a day finally the F.1 big skin pack is pending for approval ...

The skins are ugraded with all decals except numbers on the skin as Carlo likes.

Here a preview.

As F.1s were in service on TTF squadrons since 1973 I changed data/userlists.ini.

Alex took me the 'real' RR Avon voice and a 74th Sq. loading screen was included.

As my work goes on with F.1A, I have to tank Tk for 5/11 patch new features.

Paul

Only to watch this beauty I made a kamikaze like quick mission

No hope to hit !

Take a trySu-7BM Vs New Jersey.rar

Bravi Ragazzi!!!!! :clapping: :clapping:

This one of my favorite aircraft series. Super!

Can wait for the next one (maybe the "U").

Paolo

Some updates ...

F.1A No. 111 Sq.

F.1 145 ghost Sq. 226 OCU

F.1 TFF Leuchars

F.1 TFF Wattisham

... to be continued.

Thank You ALL guys!

 

Lightning was effectively very impressive plane with high visibilty colors...

 

Coupi.

I think so, too.

Tk made for us every type and version. So we have a plenty of models to paint ....

nice work paulo

 

what did the patch change for skinning ???? and what are the new features ???? and will the skins still work on sf2 games that are not patched with the 5/11 patch

Umut is right: new numbering and new bump maps.

If You extract a lightinig skin folder You can see better than I try to explain.

So texture.ini files need to be edited, but working on new jpg files is the new job for silver/colored planes.

No idea if this will work on previous patches or custom planes (but I think not).

I'm learnig and trying.

We will be in touch.

Paul

The new 5/11 patch changed many things in skinning adding some new outstanding features, so with some WIP to remake I decided to start a new skinnnig job using new standards, these are first squadrons

F.1 74° Sq.

F.1 60° MU

F.1 AFDS

F.1A 56° Sq.

F.2A 92° Sq.

N.B. some squadron patches are from Spinners, little edited by me.

More to come.

Paul

Fantastic!

I love that dayglo, Paulo!

I'm proud of it, mate!

Made in England.

I haven't try any full install mod yet but if they haven't old cat packs maybe they could work (as with previous patch) simply changing the old exe file with new renamed one.

With cat pack we could try (waitng new tools) opening them.

with 7 or 800 skins to that do .... oi vey!!

 

remember folks, the "000" decal is actualy the FIRST one, so like Paulo said, add 1 to the last number for the block size!

 

any differences in teh shadow, for you post-patch users?? *just curious, as I'n not patching unitl the new extractor comes out!)

The shadows that not show after previous patch (like old Yak-28 serie) seem ok.

Hi Kevin.

An ancient beauty comes back! 5 stars for me, mate.

Last patch users unite and try this adding the last 4 lines properly edited (see below) in each TextureSet.ini skin:

[TextureSet]

Name=890 NAS

Nation=RoyalNavy

Squadron=890NAS

Specular=0.300000

Glossiness=0.750000

Reflection=0.000000

DecalNumberRandomize=TRUE <-----------------add these lines

DecalNumberBlockSize=13 <--------------- how many decals you have for each skin (quick tip: add +1 to the last decal number of each set)

DecalNumberStart=0 <--------------- start decal number (0)

DecalNumberEnd=12 <---------------- last decal number (X)

No more numberless planes!

Paul

Well the very good news are that some old shadows show up again (I experimented the old Yak-28 serie)

Another one is the new decal shuffle (we can delete "." at the bottom of all numbers files and if we are good no more unnumberd plane in fly)

A bad (I hope solved soon by TK in person with new modding tools he promise) is that I wasn't able to extract default stuff with previous cat extractor.

Another very bad thing (for me only) is the new sharkmouted Hunter ... because last week I spent a night in making it by my own (sob!)

Good night bros (TK, too)

P.

Well an amazing video ... a plane styled in CCCP but RR powered: a quite perfect blend!

Here some WP skins screens

Little help needed.

Hunter FGA.9 1° TWU Brawdy

Any idea as the wings were painted in red? I can't find an upper/down pic/photo ...

I made like this but not sure ....

Please help.

This of any use ? (from a book by Francis Mason)

 

Houdoe,

 

Derk

Houdoe, too!

Paul

FAW.2, 893 Squadron, with Sundowner's skin (also his are NOW being used in the FAW.1. Ant reminded me that he'd done some hirez skins 'way back when. They look sooooo good!)

kevin stein

Oh yes, Kevin. These Sea Vixen seem very good. What about a SF-2 all squadrons upgrade?

Paul

Thank You for the decals Carlo

I was looking for FR.10 performance data, but I haven't found much .... anybody could help us?

Paul

NB The shark mouth is painted (not a decal) and deformed on nose shape to be coorect ...
