Cool photos! Link does not work on my end, it returns the dreaded 404 error. Anyone can confirm?

Me neither, I have no access to the modders' repository. Which are the requisites? Anyway, I don't think Baltika's WIP is there. We would need his explicit consent to proceed upon his work, too.

Great skins! Thanks for sharing, 1977Frenchie! I was wondering, when was the low-viz scheme introduced exactly? I was looking for info, the best I found was that the change between hi-viz and low-viz happened during the 80s.

Being Italian, I would like to help on any WIPs of the Balkan theater. In the past, some tried to recreate such terrain, but were limited by the tools available at the time (working on heightmaps was a nightmare). Today, we have more powerful tools, new techniques (Stary's discovery of 250m heightmaps comes to my mind) and so on. The most advanced WIP I recall is Baltika's. I am wondering if there are others as well.

Very sorry to hear this. I upgraded to the latest build voluntarily and I didn't have any major issues (except one which broke mostly all Adobe Photoshop products, and neither companies are willing to solve the matter). It's very strange that you cannot go back to the previous build. Usually, after such big updates, there is always a Windows.old folder which contains everything needed for a full restore to the previous build. I really don't know what might have happened.

Ace Combat 7 Skies Unknown - E3 2017 Trailer
Menrva replied to Menrva's topic in General Flight Sim Discussion
Yep, they are using the Unreal Engine 4, it was about time they decided to make a PC release too. For all of you who are interested, here are two gameplay demos, the first with commentary from the AC director himself, Kazutoki Kono. For the second video, keep in mind that the dubbing is still a work in progress, I think; there are some translation mistakes (noticeable also in the E3 trailer). -
Super Hornet shoots down Syrian Su-22

Little sh*t hit the fan; Russia has confirmed that it will view US-led coalition aircraft as targets, from now on: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-40329036 Another article regarding today's rarity of air-to-air kills: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-40327934 -
Thanks Stary! It's also thanks to your discovery that it looks so pretty. The terrain uses a fresh new heightmap created with DEM files, so altitudes are pretty accurate to the Real World. The same can be said for the Iraq/Iran terrain I made, it was my first attempt, the one I am most proud of. -
-
Ditto that. Wish you and your family the best, 76.IAP-Blackbird.

Exactly. It took me three years to develop the Iran/Iraq terrain. I am grateful to all of those who waited for it. I put so much effort into it, and I am a little afraid some people don't even notice it. Other incredible, great modders around here have provided the community with outstanding stuff, all for free. They say, to share is to care. Also, let's not forget, patience is a virtue.

Me too, I like reading aviation related news. Man, I can't believe it. Who needs Ace Combat's fictional aircraft fortresses? We are getting closer to such fiction.
-
Wow, nice! Thank you, gerwin, I really like your work. Your 3D models (including airbases) and TFDtool are masterpieces.
-
Good to see you're back, viper63a! Thanks for sharing this nice package! -
Nice addition indeed! Maybe one day we will see an updated ODS campaign package with my accurate terrain remake. I keep on dreaming.

"Ripping Falcon" here, reporting for duty! I prefer owls over falcons, though, LOL!

Where the frak? Pipper/Gunsight/HUD thingy gone... :-(
Menrva replied to Muesli's topic in General Discussion
It once happened to me a long of time ago, but I don't remember exactly how I fixed it. Check if you have a custom AIRCRAFTOBJECT.ini inside the Objects folder, and remove it. As far as I remember, once I messed around with some custom .ini files from Stary, and I got that bug. -
I released a standalone, updated terrain (which hopefully will receive another update later this month): http://combatace.com/files/file/16395-iraq-western-asia-1980-2003/ The campaign files must be edited so that the new terrain can be used.
-
Yes, that's the one, thanks mate!
-
Damn, now I remember. The version I was telling about was actually a video from YouTube. I might be able to find it again. Thanks, Skyviper!
-
Yeah, an old one. IIRC, the version I read had the Spanish in place of the Canadians. Still funny though.

I am planning updates to my old terrains and some new terrain releases, and I was wondering if I could find a way to make better looking planning maps, very similar to the stock SF ones. Spectre8750 managed to make some of them for other custom terrains, such as this: http://combatace.com/topic/75208-alternate-kaw-terrain-v3-planning-map-set/. Does anybody have any suggestions or the perfect, secret recipe? Thanks in advance.
