I grow sunflowers... That reduces my carbon footprint, but they release huge amounts of corrosive oxygen, causing steel to rust for miles around...

Some shade of magenta or pink...

Terrain Help
Major Lee replied to SidDogg's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Since you are painting the bmp directly, just paint flat spots where you want them... Airfields need a flat space; it doesn't matter if you paint them flat or the TE lays them. You are importing the 256 color TE pallette back in, aren't you?... ML... -

Air Race Terrain Concepts...
Major Lee posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
1: What would you prefer to see in an air race terrain: pylons or canyon like trenches? 2: Would you fly this online or solo on your PC? -

Thanks for the input. I have several ideas and will make some preliminary drawings of the map, incorporating the various ideas... -

Air Race Terrain Concepts...
Major Lee replied to Major Lee's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
My air race terrain is all hand painted with trenches of varying width and depth, and design layout... All tracks are not suitable for all aircraft... I am planning on setback AAA to keep planes "in the groove"... I am also planning on bridges to help reinforce the importance of staying "in the groove". -
Air Race Terrain Concepts...
Major Lee replied to Major Lee's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The more I think about it, the more I like the idea of lakes and water areas on the map... Perhaps a timed "race" from takeoff to carrier trap... hhmmmm... -
Air Race Terrain Concepts...
Major Lee replied to Major Lee's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Lakes would not be a problem, smaller rivers through canyonswould be more challenging. A body of water large enough for a carrier would simply mean making the map a bit larger... Step One: Already thought about it... (on-going process) Step Two: Alpha Concept Map (distributed for discussion) Step Three: Compile desired features and plan Alpha map 2... ( beginning this process...) -

Photoshop
Major Lee replied to Bulldog's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I also do the selection, select inverse... But, I do set a small amount of feathering, perhaps two to five pixels, for a nice smoothed edge... -
Photoshop
Major Lee replied to Bulldog's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I use Photoshop 5.5 for the TGA alpha layer capability for decals... Works very well. I use PhotoImpact 6 and 10 for my (so-called alleged) "painting"... -

A civilian idea...
Major Lee replied to pcpilot's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I guess we can all start making our own customized personal airshow and race skins for our favorite SF mounts... :yes: -
A civilian idea...
Major Lee replied to pcpilot's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Actually, one idea I talked about with TK waaayyy back was an air race scenario with tall columns and some kind of timer that trips when you enter the course and ends when you exit the other end... We do have the F8F, from Geo IIRC.... There are also Typhoon IIs and the P51 already in-game... An air race is do-able :yes: Making terrain pylons is also a possibility... -

Well, I can think of several military birds I would like to see in SF... As for the Grand Canyon, I think I have that laying around somewhere... :yes: Anybody want to trade the Grand Canyon for a P-47Q??? -
Lod Viewer
Major Lee replied to Jimbib's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
That would be cool... The ability to see and rotate an object in one little program... EAW had a nice object viewer... Please, some coder write one! -
