  1. Well, it is much easier to build up a new model than extract and work on an old lod. Just to be clear. Yes, we can 'hack' models from the game. Not going to name tools anyway. But it is crap, and not worth the effort.
  2. I. When you will start modeling then you will know how it works. Start with the front panel and then..suddenly you want to do every single screw and switch. And believe me from point of view person who made one or two pits. This is the best part of aircraft modeling. Countless hours spent over the manuals and bazylion pictures for reference - this is fun, educational fun. The only comparable part of modeling is researching serial numbers - the second thing that we love to do. The ultimate lesson of history. And in the end, after all the hard work you put in you will feel absolutely fulfilled. Even if many users do not give a damn if a switch is in the right position (or if there is a switch at all). Even if it is hard to see appreciation from the end users. (a very common thing for the last few years). Still, we going to do 'the thing' our way.
  3. Not sure if that matters in the game at all since we are flying. But I can work on it. Simple ini edit or simple ini edit and weapon model. and special for you Czech built T-55AM2
  4. I will make it with clean - unpainted rubber just for you. Just in case. I know that there is no point in painting it...but still, it was also observed with paint. One in Kubinka Museum has it painted. One in Polish Museum in Warsaw has it painted. Many in the Czech Republic I observed were unpainted. and AMV one painted one untouched rubber. The best thing is in many scale model kits those side skirts come made of metal... And a way to recognize the version on a blurry picture. All early T-72 Urals with 80-105-20 glacis armor has 4. Ural-1 produced between 1975-79 with 60-105-50 armor has 3 anti-ricochet bars. And 2 bars on T-72A and on export Object 172M-1-E5 and E6 - to put it simply T-72M1 (16-60-105-50 glacis armor)
  5. yes, I know. But it can also be painted, right? In fact, steel-reinforced (Interwoven textile)
  6. all quiet on the eastern front... T-55AM, T-55AMV, 9K52
  7. generally, there is a safety limit when you can deploy airbrakes. When, during flight, dive, etc speed exceeds the limit, hydraulic system kicks in and will close the airbrakes.
  8. tell me I am wrong...but looks like Dassault M2000 D and N combined are winning by one point... come on ...Let us make Dassault great again! But honestly, I would vote for Su-22 or ...KC-10 <--- do not take it so seriously
  9. maybe it is possible. We just need to be more creative... TK's ultimate goal - make all those lazy gamers more creative...
  10. Why not use templates...you can make any color you want..
  11. I know that it is too late...but from point of view of 3d model - S-2 tracker / E-1 Tracer also Mirage 2000N/D should not compete against each other. 3d guy having S-2 can pop up E-1 or C-1 easily too - then you have 3 new aircraft. Same situation in the 2000 N/D spot. And now you can see that 2000N has 12 votes while 2000D has 11 and both are losing to some wannabe fighter. While could have strong 23 points...And from 3d model / ini file, there is not much of a difference. but just my 2 peso to discusion. Let us make Dassault great again!
  12. well, I have been doing the same thing...
  13. just a tip...you might not want to waste votes on tandem Jag or Mohawk...just saying...
  14. this is the new AH-1G...not been published yet. Still have to do a thing or two...
  15. And how this is going to help? It is fun to have a wish list...but it is only fun. the cockpit will not make itself suddenly... Research time. This is not like you will google "xyz cockpit" and have ready everything. Manuals, hundreds of photos and you still will have a shitload of work. I think years ago someone asked about creating a research group - to take part of the workload from the modeler. Suppose it did not work out either. Maybe one day... as for now generally, 3d guys here are on their own... But believe me, research in this matter is hard. As I said - it is not about googling cockpit photos. the best thing about making a working cockpit is - that in the end after all this hard work you will feel rewarded. So...yes we need a cockpit for this and that..but whining about it...will not make it happen...
  16. drag chute must be part of the model properly linked in a hierarchy and be part of the visible component in data.ini. the new cockpit is not a problem - usually, the time needed to build one is. Generally, building a cockpit is much easier than an aircraft model - it just takes much more time. Same thing about double cockpits. Either it is a backseater, side-seater, or even can have three positions. The thing is you need time to build one.
  17. nah...I will just continue to do what I was doing. I am not a 3d artist so I will keep messing around.
  18. Amen. And I repeat myself again, at this point that we have plenty of goodies in the game. I prefer quality rather than quantity. I do not want 69 new aircraft I would rather have one but delicious. And honestly, If I do not have a cockpit for mod I do not install the mod -(with few exceptions for some heavies..and if it is for the red side) but this is my approach.
  19. Ha! I am not alone. Every seaplane looks mean. we will get there...
  20. Yes, Tracker is a good choice. Maybe we need a new KC-10. ....joke that only one will understand. AJ Savage..... Martin's Marlin, Mariner, Mars Caribou. TAV-8B is 99.9% done a long time ago...I am waiting for inspiration for the remaining 0.1%
