Funny thing...I was there today also. Again. Over Onekotan-to.

Did you try to report to customer service? I had some issues with max and w7 around 6-7 years ago they solved this quite fast. Since then no single problem.

How u are doing scale? By object or throug vertex selection ?

Thanks. I can't seem to find which unit the MiG-31s came from. For instance, Wiki says that 865 IAP based at Yelizovo was equipped with MiG-31s only from 1985. But Wikipedia can't be trusted on such matters. Su-15 instead ? 865th IAP.

And whose fault is this? Guess - things could look different if the Soviet Union would develop their aircraft carriers/fleet arm more.. .

I agree that it could be great if someone would like to rebuild/refresh/build new real historic aircraft. But other thing is; if a modder wants to do his own way models - let it be. There is a place for everything. But definitely, we like historic flyers here more.

View File AV-8B Night Attack Harrier II - SF2. ver.2018 AV-8B Night Attack Harrier II. This is my humble rework of old AV-8B. Basic modding skills are required to run this mod. (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) Fake pilot is needed to run this mod. It is designed for and works only in SF2 series. Around 2 years ago - January 2016 - KillerBee approach me with the possibility of updating bobrock's harrier. An working on Night Attack version. After some time, we had prepared the updated file ready for upload. Small changes here and there corrected few things. And great skins by Killerbee. And then KillerBee disappeared from CA forum. Honestly, up to now, I have no contact with him. last - 4th May 2016. So harrier stayed on drive waiting for his comeback. But .... I couldn't resist...And iI started to mod this again. Since I had no KB skin templates I had to do all new skins...and more. So now I am here...My standard AV-8B Harrier is already available for download and now its night Attack model. New cockpit and a whole set of new skins and decals on whole remodeled 'old' Harrier. - there is no single part of an original model that hasn't be touched/remodeled etc. First of all...If you want to count rivets...Do not. Many things could be done other way....but I did it my way. So you have to bear with it. All skins are in 4096x4096 format. So you can easily resize down. Generally, it is just a few skins. Decals are based on my and KillerBee research. All serials are correct for the Night Attack version of Harrier II. Not always (but mostly) correct for a unit/year of service etc. But as always aircraft are rotating between units so its hard to track them down really. Animations: 1= canopy open - close 4= refueling probe - beware of a speed limit 3= night vision mode - not really helping but it is there - inside and outside animation. ************************************************************************************ Included optional data file where gun pod is still gunpod but always loaded via weaponstation-7 so additional slot for chosing loadout is available - usefull with asymetrical loadouts (on station 2 and 6). AAQ-28 can be loaded only on station number 5 and centerline - in real - centerline come to use later and some units (VMAT) also moded wiring for use on other pylons. Nut in this mod only station 5 and 4 can carry AAQ-28. ECM also activates RWR on digital display indicator - even if ECM pod is not loaded. If you have my AV-8B Harrier already - some files are same so simply overwrite. I think I did not put equalizer sound file now. It is same as in previous day Harrier. for proper sound work you should add these lines into soundlist.ini SoundFilexxx=xxxx SoundFileXXX=USMComm_1 [USMComm_1] Priority=NORMAL 3DSound=FALSE NumBuffers=1 Looped=TRUE FrequencyControl=FALSE ************************************************************************************ Credits. Me - whole sort of strange things - model-re-model, new cockpit, skins, decals, ini files etc. Ravenclaw - BRU-42 ITER models. AAQ-28 Pod- I don't remember who made this model - alll credits to him and thank you. 331Killerbee - ideas, good words, research primary work on skins and decals, work on ini files, loadouts, effects etc. Crusaders - help with avionics ini. bobrock- original first version of the standard model - Thank you and thanks to KillerBee. Thanks to a lot of people who helped me with this mod...Stratos, Crusader, Geary, gurru, Soulfreak,76.IAP-Blackbird, and others. Thank you all CA users. Yes, I know its huge - but I couldn't make it smaller. Be sure to download all parts and optionally. Enjoy. I enjoyed it much when making this pack. Expect unexpected. Report bugs. Suggest changes.

You have to upload this set within two weeks... What I like in this game... that at time to time someones hard work and passion will pop up on a flight line.

shader map 3 is software I am using. Just create clean - white skin with black lines rivets and all elements that you want to 'bump' Remember no dirt, stains weathering etc should be applied on this skin. Open shaderMap start new project and program will create bump map for you - then adjust the intensity and of edges..then save and you have your first bump map. Also, remember you can do bump map only to models that have bumps assigned in 3d max.
