I've been talking to SkateZilla about me possibly getting a team for a Super Hornet since Coretex is dragging serious ass on it. I got the requirements and honestly a Falcon has crossed the mind but then again the F4 guys would have aneurysms once that was ever announced. "WHAT!?!?!?!? IT'S NOT BETTER THAN OURS!" I mean even at the Flaming Cliffs level it still would be enough to keep people happy. The Su-25T while nowhere near capable, does have enough functionality tor it to be flown and operate a targeting pod even with that lower level of capability compared to a 6DOF jet.

I didn't release it because you requested it. So if you want me to I can, but I sent you the link so you could download it last week.

Still stuck with some personal issues. I want to do another What If for the -25T, based on the "Peanut" scheme for that aircraft. Sometime though...

Coretex is doing the E for DCS, and the VRS Super Bug isn't "combat" or as high fidelity as any real combat sim, but overall its going to be done... sometime (DCS F/A-18E).

To install extract the folder to the DCSWorld\Bazar\Liveries\Su-25 and in the Su-25 Payload Scheme (set for Russia by default) and select “European 1” Click here to download this file

Okay... I was a Valued Member earlier today, now Senior Member, and now Elite... weird but not complaining either. Managed to get the nose area sorted out (4096 x 2048!!!!) to a decent condition given the different mapping:

Okay more work on the tail area, adapting it for the specific frame as opposed to the -25T:

Okay more work, and showing the difference in mapping as opposed to the -25T:

And beginning work on the Su-25. So far it's easier due to the general similarities between the 25T and the reg'lar Su-25.

No problem man, and cool

I've had some personal issues come up which not bad, is distracting me from doing any kind of modding in general. So I'm just planning on riding out the change until I can refocus back, which more or less will be tomorrow or so. It's been a very interesting weekend so tomorrow I hope to get back to the European 1 Su-25.

For those who have downloaded the above, I noticed an issue with the "true" and "false" statements with the description.lua for these entries as they need to be set to true (as in below): {"su25t-gear-metal", 0, "SU39-PAINT7-USAFFT", true}, {"Su-25t-gear-steel", 0, "SU39-PAINT7-USAFFT", true}, {"Su-25t-gear-rubber", 0, "SU39-PAINT7-USAFFT", true},

I use Shadow Play and it's been fairly reliable in the past. I tried FRAPS but it kept not working with Movie Maker that Shadow Play is my choice.

Yeah because I rarely get an FPS hit (I don't go ultra but I like my jets as high as possible, they ALL have to look good ) with SF2 and quite frankly could use more tweaking but overall still good enough for producer work

serverandenforcer did some work on the FM as I'm NOT in any way an FM guru, I'm more of a texture artist than just FM stuff. As for performance hit? It could be the two 2048 x 2048 textures for the aircraft as well as other smaller textures as well. You may have to resize them to 1024 x 1024 and see how that goes. But that means it's more like a VRAM issue as opposed to anything else. Or you may want to check or downgrade your Anti-aliasing as well per your card settings. Maybe your Anistropic filtering is a bit high? If so dumb it down a bit and see how that goes. I usually leave it to the application and so far I have really good framerates but doesn't look like shit either as far as for screenshots and the like.

Actually some of my better engagements were during missions, not "scripted" sets that I do for a more focused evaluation.

I think it's just the fact that I like stuff to look good. As the Super Hornet is concerned I like the jet a lot and therefore feel that it was too low poly in my mind. But I run SF2, DCS, and rarely FSX, and Arma 3 with decent (maybe too good) framerates. And my ASUS is two years old and I had guys last year in my clan bitching about low FPS with a certain mission, which amazed me but that's that. Overall I like quality models and that's pretty much it. A lot of my gunwork in Arma 3 is reasonable for the game and yet highly detailed enough to look like that weapon without going overboard and not kill the FPS either. I was talking to a guy and he showed me a gun model that was 350MB(!!!) and he was wondering why it worked. If I remember the SH was like... 20,000? It's been a long time since I knew the figures but overall while there are parts that could use some tweaking and enhancement overall its cool as it is. Ravenclaw's stuff? Man his stuff runs highly detailed (sometimes insanely detailed) but its also not much of a hit on the polys. May want to look at optimizing your card or getting a new one as well.

Okay I've been cornfused... Okay you can't use SF2 tanks in WoX because methinks you want the custom tank images in WoX? It's not going to happen since the game engine doesn't support it and can't be done man.

File Name: Su-25T USAF 74th FS (FT) File Submitter: EricJ File Submitted: 05 January 2015 File Category: SU-25T Skins Su-25T USAF 74th FS, (FT) While the Su-25T as a whole is a very capable combat jet within its own right, the aircraft will never be as capable as the A-10A or A-10C currently. However it does look good in a splash of European 1 and represents a fictional rendition of the aircraft in the 74th Fighter Squadron, 23rd Fighter Group, the “Flying Tigers”. To install this skin simply cut and paste the folder into the Bazar/Liveries/Su-25T folder and in the Payload Editor, select “USAF 74th FS (FT)” and go fly. And for those with the appropriate mod can use this also for the USA side. Click here to download this file

Okay what you need to do is look at the format for the SF2 tanks and mirror it, name it differently, then edit that aircraft's specific data_ini. and add that name so the game knows to look for that model. Personally I have no clue why you're so hot to use older model versions of the same tank in SF2? I mean the cool thing about the SF2 version is you can do custom tanks with custom insignia and stuff, but it literally is the same model in SF2.

After knocking out some request work managed to tweak the tail a bit: The checker is a bit high but overall I like how this one turned out.

I think you're just not realizing the name you should be looking for: F-18E/F/G 480 Gallon Tank Open the game, and go through the pylons and you should see that name above as the "Name" for the tanks.

No worries

That sucks man, I used to use the FLY 5 stick... and the damn thing broke just sitting there, out of two one key broke. Novel concept for the deployed Soldier but seriously the Logitech has never failed me... Nice shots too! And enjoy sitting on that seat man, guess it's a South African thing
