More progress, just have to do the tips and wing tanks, etc.

Using the stock pattern, and colors from @CarloVecchi

Sure why not? I don't have anything on the plate right now, other than uploading old skins

I mean probably, but don't you mean GBU-12?

Hmmm i'll see what I can do in the future then.

Flanker 2.51 was the sim to play, I mean it had precision strike capability with the Su-33 and so on. Anyway, reading the Mig-29A FAQ it states in one of the Questions: So unless there's publicly available data, we're not getting one in the near future, unless somebody knows where I can find a MIG-29K manual... I'll have to google it sometime then.

NineLine answered that on the first page

Is it possible to get the other bits in PSD available? Like the tanks and so on? (If they don't exist already) If so can somebody point them to me then?

Best at one night was three 500lb, but I'll take one though.

I don't recall inferring that, but no I don't.

Nice, thanks man.

I mean I don't care either way, FF or not, but I'm sure they could do something.

Well, then I'll have to rethink getting it then. I mean I still got the Flaming Cliffs version to play with, so there's that.

Will we be able to make more liveries, or will the model be encrypted?

Any chance for an OV-10D in the future?

Well they got a lot on their plate, so it may happen and maybe somebody will focus on that, or not. Unfortunately gotta wait and see. At least we can wish for it now.

I agree, I don't need (or really require) a full fedelity version, just something so I can fly around and shoot stuff, and fly around and stuff.

Pretty much, so unless (which I doubt they would), they would do such a thing, or come up with a plugin (if that's possible) for .edm, so they'd have to figure that out. I mean a program that they come up with would of course work, but I'm sure they're a bit busy as it is.

Substance Painter (I used Deeppaint with another simulator though, but that was like 2004 or 5 after Iraq, or before..) is a good program to use for skins, but I still stick with the ModelViewer workflow, which I'm sure everybody else does, it would save a lot of time ane work. Anyway if they modify ModelViewer to read encrypted files and allow for texture work, then they can protect their content whilst allowing for more content (skins at least) to be created, and it will allow them to keep their privacy and other legal issues, so I agree with you on that. Whether or not they do that remains to be seen of course, but it wouldn't be a bad idea and we all win too.

An L-39C SEA skin, uploading soon: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3344899/

I've done a few skins too and I mean is it a loss if the new MIG-29A is encrypted? In the long run no, but I'll be like "WTF?" and so on, so there's that. Overall I can't effect how it's handled, but I do hope they don't encrypt it, they'd be shooting themselves in the foot content-wise, given the amount of skins on the User Files in the first place. I mean that's a new model, new textures, new template, hopefully at least.

No problem, yours look good too, may check them out as well...

I mean that's a valid request, but let's see if they don't encrypt the module first, then we can talk about new liveries. I mean I'm angling for some Fictional ones, and a real world one, but given the F-5 issue, let's wait and see before we get too excited.
