Standard lockon F2 view example of what could be achieved with additional camera settings NB - The plane was at the same distance from the ship in both images (taken from the start of a saved mission - to get the second picture i had to use the F9 (ship) view then locate the plane in the view.

Anyway to change focal length? (without just using the in game zoom as thats just too simple) The effect I want is to have background options looking big yet in the distance.The idea is you would stand far back and zoom in as opposed to actually moving toward the object for zoom (as modelled in the game) and yes the picture WOULD look different using each method I understand I can probably change the field of view or something in the config but is there a way to set it up real time? or would anyone give me an idea of what to do to make a camera settings mod? IMHO an advanced camera mode would be nice for focal length and general focusing and shutter speed - plenty of times where i needed this - i understand this would be the last thing on ED's list but if someone could point me in the right direction of where to read up or give me a list of simple things to sort to help build the mod I'd help - unless someone already has or will make one? :P Thanks

Those images look horizontally stretched to me - might just be cause im slumped low in my chair but if not check your screen ratio is set to 1.6 in the config - im guessing your using 1440x900 yes?

...and in England we say 'Don't shoot the bear its politically incorrect' Is there a thread for this F14 model where discussions upon it are on topic without these proverbs no one uses? :P

Does it fly? if so the $21000 a plane they state near the bottom is a bargain

No idea who that is but he has a great sense of humour :D

Heh 2004? I haven't been with Lockon that long but I remember the release of your website. Was definitely good whilst it was there and kept it bookmarked. Glad you haven't left the community for good anywho, and thanks for the site whilst it was around :)

Great find favourite picture so far...

Here it is so far and yes that is meant to be worn paint and not my crappy painting skills :P based on this http://www.dfrc.nasa.gov/Gallery/Photo/F-15A/Large/EC80-12546.jpg and yeah I know the tail fin is wrong I'll make a new logo for that too!

Yeah I got it to work now - I ignored the step about creating a work folder directly in the C Drive (I just assumed there was no real reason for doing that :P) Thanks though

I'll give it a go again then baring that in mind - when you say a work folder in the C Drive you mean to say its listed under C:/workfolder without going into anything else yes?

The link didn't work even when I removed the space before the .com I found out the error I had was apparently because there are spaces in the file name and source as well as the CDDS savefile directory - the problem is I can't change some of the folders such as 'My Documents' - I tried using the desktop as a directory but that failed also.

Everytime I click the 'Build CDDS' option in the CDDSstudio the DOS window opens, I see several commands scroll down then the window closes - in the folder where the CDDS should be there is an empty error.txt file and a TexToDDs.txt saying - TexToDDs.exe -noise <Source Tga file> <Dest dds file> <alpha decrease by miplevel> TexToDDs.exe <InDir> <extention> <OutDir> TexToDDs.exe -complex <InDir> <extention> <CDDS FileName> TexToDDs.exe -dump <CDDS FileName> <OutDir> TexToDDs.exe -single FileName format mip outfilename TexToDDs.exe -xml <Project FileName> <CDDS FileName> Any idea what I did wrong?

I don't have teamspeak sorry - I did a search and have found a thread you made http://forum.lockon.ru/showthread.php?t=19735&highlight=create+texture Seems to be the thing I'm looking for so far. Should have searched before - thanks though!

Hey I'm trying to make a new skin for the F15 using ICE's template - having no problems using it. My only question is can some one point me in the direction of a guide for putting the skin in the game - just to test it out and see how things look not for release (not sure if i ever will :S) thanks

Ha is it just me or did the air commander man look like he was from thunderbirds? (about a minute through) Cool video - best scene is seeing those birds rip through the snow on take off :D

Psst. sign me up for the alpha release while these suckers wait... :P Will each of the 'feathers' around the exhaust move as they should IRL or will they just act like most other models do and morph into whatever thrust ratio is necessary?

If they'd landed there safely it would be an awesome place to explore

You get a few more planes as well. Not enough to make me reach for an extra 10pounds so I got the standard which I've ignored - prefer LOMAC so much more :P

One thing that gets me with a lot of the models in the game including the F15 (sorry walmis :P) is that the leading edge of the main wing is sharp - I swear it should be rounded - the Mig29 is nicely rounded. Surely with such a good model so far you wouldn't overlook this? I'll keep shun if I'm wrong or if the model is beyond editable stage.

I had that problem too - it was only the A10 and my explosion sounds had gone also. It was after i installed and old zzzspace sound pack - i downloaded a new one and things are fine. Hope you sort it out soon

Looks very intriguing - can;t wait to start making my own land battles with lots of extra equipment!

Sounds like my computer now i've bought more fans for it :S

Not worth asking Chizh about this?

Speed 350-450 in level flight - press the cobra button - then pull back on the stick fully - then go where you want from there really
