He means the upper part where it meets the fuselage, it's flat when it's actually angled down.

Qual shot

True, but this is the actual cockpit lighting recolored and adjusted to 360 degrees around the cockpit.

Yes Wrench, the "8" is the SA-8, and the "Z" is the Gun Dish.

On a hunch a few days ago I figured at least a cheap NVG system for cockpits. Using the actual cockpit light and setting it to a green color I got the below. It's not totally perfect and could obviously use the benefit of a shader but allows better flying at night: LightRange=4.0 LightInnerConeAngle=360 LightOuterConeAngle=360 LightAngles=0.0,10.0,0.0 DiffuseLightFactor=0.7 NightLightOn=0.25 NightLightColor=0.0,1.0,0.0,0.7

Nice

can't tell from a perspective shot

Screen resolution settings sometimes screw up pics... from the model renders looks okay to me.

Mine too

File Name: Dutch Apache (301 Squadron) File Submitter: EricJ File Submitted: 03 November 2011 File Updated: 03 November 2011 File Category: SF2 Series Add On Skins A skin for Dels' AH-64D specifically but can be used on his AH-64A as well. Simply drop the folders where they need to be and go fly. Note this is the skin only. Click here to download this file

Managed to find a good enough font for the Dutch Apache skin, will upload later on.

I don't care either way to be honest with you.

MSPaint isn't the program to get stuff like that in-game. Programs like GIMP (which is FREE) or Adobe Photoshop (which isn't, and very expensive, CS4 cost me 700 bucks). On the cheap scale Paint Shop Pro or even Adobe Photoshop Eseentials, which can give you decent skins.

Returning to base

Just a note PureBlue, I'm the commander of the Abe Lincoln, which has these squadrons: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier_Air_Wing_Two SidDogg is commanding CVW-5: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier_Air_Wing_Five

Here's the completed skin. Not going to upload it for public distribution since in reality it is a request. Tank is digital (though the screenshot doesn't show it) but can be replaced with another one of course. Also attached in PSD format is the layers I used. It's optimized for the F version and the base image (from ~polydakt on Deviantart.com) is also there. VFA-2CODigital.7z Digital.7z

No problem

Primary Role for VFA-2 is Strike and CAP, as well as Recon. I'm gonna have to wait until the Abraham shows up then I can do SEAD as well.

For some reason the Flogger is just an interesting aircraft
