"Fixed" the fuel tank texture. I'm going to try and make a seperate model (via hex editor and texture, if you don't mind Typhoid): EDIT: Well some checks anyways, and it looks like you can't have two types (to be able to select between various skins) so I guess when I do release it (looking like next week for sure, it's getting more and more finished). I'll have to just include the edited stuff.

SA-7. But I've done a couple combat landings in a C-130 so I know what the experience is like though we didnt get shot at (Balad). But I've been simming for.... 8 to 10 years and I've done quite a bit, so there's still no concise answer why I would need any more flap settings than what's already what's around. I think that's my point. I figure a "combat" flap setting is a relic of WWII and not something thats applicable to jets and I'm wondering how much is enough before you start re-inventing the wheel, in which case doesn't need to happen.

Politics, pure and simple man, alof ot the people I know don't like the Super Hornet, as in some cases (most) it's not a proper replacement for the Tomcat. Well I agree and disagree on that point. As an active duty member in the US Army, I have to deal with whatever they issue me, so I think some have to admit time moves on, and so should alot of people. Not to say that the Tomcat was a crappy plane, it's one of (and still very much is) one of my favs, just that the SH is still a good looking plane, and nothing wrong with admiring beauty. Another thing, the model in the screenshots and the wireframe are two different things, I'm trying to get the wireframe to replace what's in the screenies.

Well I at least got the new tanks in WoE. However the plane, heretofore nicknamed as "No Name Plane": I've followed some of the basic stuff from Thirdwire, and tried just exporting the aircraft itself, but it's crashing. Is it because of poly count or? Granted there may not be much enthusiasm towards the No Name Plane, but heck, I spent eighty bucks, so if anything, I'll use it and be done with it really.

Thanks, with Le Missioneur you have to select "Must take off from airfield" and select:

And still we wait for more, but I'm still sticking with LOMAC.

Okay, slow down and re-explain it in a more slower, concise format, please.

I just reinstalled Max 3.1 and I'm getting quite a long error string when I open 3DS Max up, and just wondering what could be the issue... Error I get attached...

Well I did happen to have come across it after all... Apparently it was in the many zips he sent me. As you can see, it's crap, and just needed some more TLC from whoever made it. So I got the model from TurboSquid, and if there are some tutorials (it's MAX2, so I got MAX3.1) I could use, I'd like to know, or I'll PM the model I bought. SH.zip

Maybe, but my source points towards BIS, they've been messing with it for a while, so only the future can tell.

Yeah a good friend of mine said that Game 2 isn't finished yet. I figure given the track record so far, we'll be seeing ads for Game 4 before it works out.

I'm just wondering where you can unzip an ".ipb" file...

Why would you need more than three setting anyways?

Sorry, I'm trying to takeoff from the carrier so I can learn how to trap in WoE.

Yeah this is Typhoid's F-14D (that's what he named it) and so yeah it needs alot of additions that I can't add. And for the most part if the one in the works (supposedly) has the same mapping, or whatever, I'll transfer it to the appropriate model.

I've started with Le Missioneur and wanted to just learn how to land on carriers, nothing fancy, so I set up the ships and aircraft. Now when I started I was above the carrier, and no power. Something I need to do?

Wha's killing these shots is the tanks, any way to fix this problem?

Well I had bought the above, so.....

looking good!

lol USAFMTL, bite me xrearl: I agree, it's coming along good now, course I got a boatload of ref pics...

More weathering and details. Funny thing is, I started to actually have more appreciation for my own work. The Tomcat just doesn't look right clean all the time:

Well the only route I can possibly think of getting an SH in WoE is me biting down and buying a model at TurboSquid. Of course it requires asking for permission, but more than likely, it'd be okay, least I hope. It's quite a penny in .max format, but if there;s somebody who's willing to get it into WoE we can do that project I guess. Any takers? http://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/Index.cfm/ID/228791

Yes they are, but the artwork via Google can be accessible by F-14D Lions Head artwork, so I just made the title via the artwork, not so much the unit, since this was an old paint scheme.

Try the mirror link, I get the same issues myself...

Hehe true enough, and with the much appreciated help of USAFMTL, I've got some more goodies to play around with to improve the skin, so in a few days I should have a better looking skin
