  1. I did a quick test and I think it solved the shadow issue! Never thought of that. You learn something new every day. Thanks a lot!
  2. I tried that, but it didn't work. Like Gunrunner said...the problem was the spelling mistake....NoJettision=TRUE works fine! Still trying to figure out the optimal setup for the new Skyhawk Pylons/Rails.....6 weaponstationgroups are definitely to few :P Thanks guys!
  3. Hey mue, first of all, let me thank you for a priceless and well-thought tool, that saved a lot of time for me and others! While working with it, 4 small things came to mind, which may be useful additions. - background color of the mainwindow changeable. If the loaded model's skin is of bright or white-color it is sometimes difficult to see things on the white background. - rotation by 180deg for the 3 "View .. Plane"-buttons, maybe by holding a key while clicking on it. ATM there is top-, back and right side-view, So bottom-, frontal- and left-side view would be added by that. - sortable MaterialID-table (left side, middle) by clicking on the columnheader, either sorted by MaterialID or by Filename. This would make it easier to find the files a model uses if 2 or more MaterialIDs use the same file. - a 2nd Reload-button on the toolbar. I often use a higher zoomvalue to paint details and in that case I hide the 3 left side windows (Nodes, Materials, Animations), to get a bigger mainwindow. But for reloading, to see the changes, I have to unhide the left side, to reach the reload-button. None of these ideas are essential, but more of a nice to have. So if considered not useful or to difficult to implement....no problem at all! You're still a hero for many people, including myself! :)
  4. Hey there, I lately played around with EODisplayFLags and did a small list of the effects/displays for myself , but certain values are still missing or I didn't find any obvious effect for them. So to not reinvent the wheel...is there a list available that has information about the different values usable? If not, I can post the infos I gathered so far.
  5. Some more Mikes 1971: first A-4Ms delivered to VMA-324 Devildogs 1979: some HighVis VMA-211 Wake Island Avengers 1980: early LowVis camo from VMA-214 Black Sheep new ARBS-Nose
  6. I'm not fully understanding your issue, but you can open .eml-files with notepad to find the actual content of the email (somewhere in the middle). Otherwise Windows Live Mail opens them too (At least on Windows 7). If nothing works for you, I guess finding a person you trust, that uses a Microsoft email program could import it and then resent/print it for you.
  7. Sorry to revive this old thread, but seems like, the weight for your LAU-10 twin pods is wrong. Currently it's the same as the weight for the triple-pods.
  8. Thanks for your help. The first link is a very nice source for information in general! I found another picture of VMA-331 with the first version of low-vis camo (with big insignia). Just 1 plane so far, but I think, I'll include it.
  9. Good work, thanks! All files are working for me with Photoshop CC 2015.
  10. Thanks, works great! I tried that earlier, but overlooked the spelling mistake...
  11. Hey there, is it possible to make a rocketpod non-jettisonable? I searched the forum, but couln't find anything regarding rocketpods...just fueltanks. As a workaround I have to set up some missile as 1-shot rocketpods (Sidewinder, Shrike, Bullpup and Maverick), which works so far. My only problem here is, that these can be jettisoned, but shouldn't.
  12. Hey there, as seen in the Screenshots-Thread I'm currently working on a USMC A-4M skyhawk II pack, based on dtmdragons unreleased Skyhawk II pack. Since finding all needed information about details like colors for markings, patches and so on is often timeconsuming and difficult, maybe some of you can help me out here with information. I started with low-vis skins for several squadrons and at the moment there are: - VMA-131 Diamondbacks (1990) - VMA-142 Flying Gators (1990) - VMA-211 Wake Island Avengers (1988) - VMA-214 Black Sheep (1986) - VMA-214 Black Sheep (1988) - VMA-311 Tomcats (1987) - VMA-223 Bulldogs (ca. 1982-84) Progress goes well, but it seems to be rather difficult to find sources/pictures for the "low-vis" years in general. The above are more or less ok, with many missing BuNos filled in with ones from different years. I would like to add some more skins, so if any of you has information about the following, please contact me. - How many planes had all these squadrons? - Atm I have 21 for each, except 15 for VMA-131 - I simply didn't find more fitting BuNos. - VMA-331 Bumblebees - I only found 1 picture from 1982 which shows a low-vis scooter, all others (even from 1982, if correct) show HighVis colors. Since VMA-331 used A-4Ms until 1983, were all planes repainted before the end of usage or just some? - VMA-223 Bulldogs had some sort of patch just aft of the Intake-Warning in white or light gray. Has anyone a picture of it? My mainsources for information are A4skyhawk.org and goNavy.jp-Websites, Naval Fighters 55 book by Steve Ginter and the Scooter!-Book, aswell as Google in general. Thanks! P.S. I also take all information available for HighVis camos aswell!
  13. A lot of gray VMA-131 Diamondbacks VMA-142 Flying Gators VMA-211 Wake Island Avengers VMA-214 Black Sheep VMA-311 Tomcats
  14. These inis are already in the latest cockpit-repaint (v1.2). I did many of them for that cockpitupdate and additionally added the ones where the repaint is still to be done (A to C+L) to complete this ini-update for all variants available. Have fun. :)
  15. I updated the pack and it now includes repaints for all A-4E/E_Ahit, F/F_Ahit, G, H_Ahit and K cockpits, aswell as updated cockpit.inis. Have fun!
  16. YES...I'll wait a hundred years for you to finish this! I have the Flight Manuals for A-4E/F/G and early A-4M in case you need them for further information.
  17. I will sent you the pack, when I'm back home next weekend. I also can do some USMC-skins if you like. VMA-311 HighVis (around 1978/79) is finished and I have some references for VMA-331 HighVis (1980). I will also sent you the A-4KU-skins I did recently. Mandatory screenshot Malaysian A-4PTM Cockpit
  18. Already in the data.ini. But the problem here is, that you can see the original windshield in external view behind the modded one.
  19. The A-4M comes from stuff Dan (dtmdragon) sent me some time ago, containing all Skyhawk II (A-4AR, A-4KU, brazilian AF-1, A-4N). Seems like, he never released this package, as I could find only the Israeli A-4N as seperate pack --> http://combatace.com/files/file/14606-a-4n-ahit-pack-for-sf2/ in the donwload-area. As there isn't a proper A-4M/N, all models are based on A-4F, F74 and H73 with a Kfir-cockpit. Unfortunately the windshield is part of the nose, so it cannot be removed like the canopy. Dans workaround was to paint it black, which works well, but if you look close enough, of course you see it. Nevertheless nice work he has done there. I hope this helps.
  20. Small, but mighty - some desert action!
  21. Some more "Tomcats" EDIT: Of course VMA-311 Tomcats are a MARINES-squadron rather than a NAVY-one....Sorry for such a mistake and thanks Killerbee for mentioning it!
  22. I'd say let the exporter-developer decide which program to use...the easiest to create exporter (if one can say this) it will be. The only prerequisite would be, that the program has to be free. Otherwise I'd vote for Blender, but can live with any decision.
