Fog Missions; Always up for more SEAD missions. Thanks, Long time no see ? Good to have you back, Regards,

homework OK you got me. I got some reading to do. Regards,

Limited # of skins su-25 Yeh, I was wondering about that. I remember the "Fictional Skins" add-on for the su-25T. We just inserted two CDDS files into LockOn\Bazar\World folder. Then edit the Meinit.xml file in LockOn\ME folder. All according to instructions from ED ad Chizh I believe. The thing is we now have a "CLSID Generator" given by Alfa in the 3D models discussion area. Can't we use this to increase the number of planes for any Aircraft ? Or is this not possible ? Regards,

Likable, That plane has got a lot of personality. I really dig the greenhouse (conservatory) style windows Truely a classic. Nice Pics ! Regards,

Credits for skins, Please note the above individules who are the creators of the skins in the CDDS skinpack I have put on this thread. Once again sorry I did not make a detailed list of the Skin makers and of course "Cosmonaut" for his excelent CDDS Tutorial inclided in the download. I hope no one is offended; I do not mean to steal anyones thunder, only make an easy to install CDDS skinpack for the su-25. Next time I will make a detailed list of credits. Put that down to [lessons learned] Regards,

Engines Unbelievable, The detail we are comming to just in this sim is astounding to me. I am getting too old for this. But I really like it !!! BEAUTIFUL WORK I wonder when we will start to get all 3D panels and access doors ?

I have created a SkinPack for su-25 in CDDS fileform. It has ten skins though only 9 are used. They are all the great new 2048X2048 skins that have come out since Mechanist and STAR_80 SkinPack came out. This CDDS file is easy to install. Just put the CDDS file into your LockOn\Bazar\World folder. Then add the instruction as follows to your LockOn\Config\graphics.cfg file. [common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\su25-skins-upgrade.cdds";] Add this instruction using Notepad++ or any such editor. Add the instruction into the graphics.cfg file at same point below. common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\walmisWeapons.cdds"; highFolder = ".\\Bazar\\TempTextures\\"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\Su-25T_Fictional_USAF.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\SU-25T_black.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\LandTexturesBMP.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\LandTexturesTGA.cdds"; spring = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\LandTexturesSprBMP.cdds"; spring = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\LandTexturesSprTGA.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\LandTexturesSumBMP.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\LandTexturesSumTGA.cdds"; autumn = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\LandTexturesAutBMP.cdds"; autumn = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\LandTexturesAutTGA.cdds"; winter = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\LandTexturesWinBMP.cdds"; winter = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\LandTexturesWinTGA.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\Terrain\\Surface\\High\\MapTexturesBMP.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\Effects\\EffectTexturesTGA.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\f4eII-skins-upgrade.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\su-30-skins-upgrade.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\FA-18-Skins-Upgrade.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\su25-skins-upgrade.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\F14-skins-upgrade.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\su17-skins-upgrade.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\AI-skins-upgrade.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\TexturesBMP_weapons.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\WorldTexturesTGA2.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\WorldTexturesTGA.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\WorldTexturesBMP2.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\WorldTexturesBMP.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\WorldTexturesBMP1.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\ShipTexturesBMP.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\ShipTexturesTGA.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\CockpitsTexturesBMP.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\CockpitsTexturesTGA.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\Effects\\effects.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\Cockpit-SU25T-TexturesBMP.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\Cockpit-SU25T-TexturesTGA.cdds"; common = ".\\Bazar\\World\\WorldTexturesTGA1.cdds"; You can follow the instructions in the section four of the included CDDS Tutorial in the download. After that you will have 9 beautiful new birds to fly. And since they are in CDDS format they should not Rob you of any FPS either. sorry I did not make a list of the skin creators but if you are interested you can easly find their individule files between LockOn\ru and LockOn\files web sites. download link : http://media6.filewind.com/g.php?filepath=3202 ENJOY!

ModMan 6.0 SkyPat, BIG THANK YOU !!

working reply Weta, I get the same problem on my tracks. When I record the track I have a good missile attack or bomb attack. But when I play back the track my attack is off target and sometimes my plane crashes also. I don't know what is the cause ? Maybe mission has too many active units ? I hav'nt tried to do a very simple mission yet ? Or maybe it's the map ? I am using moded Teka Teka map. Regards,

NAV Route Yes it was nice to have. Good to have distances available while I study the ME map. I didn't print it out and tape it to my leg though. When I fly I jump back and forth from cockpit to map view for reference. I know some people think it's cheating but I like the "sut-U-awarness" it gives me. I think since we are cheated by limited "sensory-input" we should be able to use all the cheats we can muster. Beside I am not a fighter jock and as such I am not limited by any of that A...l Re....tive fighter boy nonsense :smilewink: Best Regards,

nomera file Deadman, Yes I know that the nomera file is for numbers and star for all su-25 airframes....but I want to control plane by plane... So why does the su-25.cmd and the nomera_su file come with this skin pack ???? Seems that the su-25.cmd file can be tweeked to grab different nomera file (different than game default) SOoooo I was wondering if this su-25.cmd file can be used to tweek individule planes nomera file usage ??? Hope this is clear :pilotfly: Regards,

su-25.cmd file ? Mechanist, Star_80, Could one of you explain the purpose of the su-25.cmd file included in this skin pack ? I was wondering if I should leave this file in my Bazar\world\shapes folder or take it out ? I was wondering if you made changes to this file how you did it ? I would like to change the way individule(su-25a) planes markings are applied to each aircraft, is this possible ? As you know some skins have numbers painted right on them, and these are very nice skins "czech frogfoot tankkiller" for one example. Regards, :pilotfly:

New mission for su-25a: This is a Convoy_Attack with NATO Vs Russian forces. Three ship consisting of 2Xsu-25t and 1Xsu-25a attacks NATO armor convoy moving to Razdolnoye airbase as reinforcement for established NATO base. Your three ship has to take out the convoy. The 25t's will attack with Vikhr's and you will drop bombs on them. Together your team should be able to wipe them out. All the airbases are heavily defended and SEAD missions will be executed by both sides. Your flight will begin ten minutes into the mission so that you may monitor the effect of the SEAD missions(f-10) and have good sit-U-awarness for the completion of your objective. Read the BRIEF for detaled instructions for the mission:

Operation Dragon DPS, Flew and appreciated your mission very much. I like the Emergency Landing Zone. I added Ground Vehicles around the ELZ for better feeling when landing on the highway. Appreciate all your detail and imigination. :pilotfly: Regards,

su2-25.cmd, edit ? Question for Cosmonaut, Deadman, Star_80 I noticed the su-25.cmd file was tweaked for the Loman install of the "Su-25A High-Res template preview skinpack" The Tweak allowed the Su-25's to be the only planes that used the nomora-su.tga file with the RED_DECALS inside. I looked on the internet for an editor that will allow me to edit the W_NT .cmd script file but I can't seem to find it ? Could someone clue me in ? Can we use this su-25.cmd file to tweak individule planes numbering and decal placement ? Best Regards,

CDDS Thread Deadman, Thanks that's the thread I was looking for; I searched CDDS but did'nt find this thread. Prob did'nt look hard enough.:pilotfly: Anyway thanks, got some work to do now! I've had Teka Teka's patch installed for a long time but never knew how to RE-SIZE the bitmap CDDS folders. Regards,

Install to su-25 CDDS folder Could you explain how to do it ? I also would really like to install this to CDDS not Bmp.

Forum: a place for civil discussion of topics of common interest This is a FORUM for LOMAC_FC_BS and any questions about forthcomming new releases are valid. I think Mr. EricJ ought to rethink his rude american style STFU response to a simple polite question by Weta43. I found it quite repulsive. I also remember that Beta #'s were being openly reffered to by the Beta Testers prior to the FC addon release. Regards,

Bahchisaraj Prison, 1Lt. Birdy, You are a very creative person. Appreciate your work very much. I am all over it ...... Thanks Much Regards,

Skins su-25A Enjoy your skins very much Thanks for your great ARTWORK Best Regards,

I changed the two last missions (uploaded by) 666th Birdy from A-10 missions to su-25T_Jurovka_army-base.mis and su-25_Sudak_fortress.mis These missions are originally created by the 666th Birdy himself but I changed them to su-25 and su-25T out of my preference for those two planes. Birdy has kindly agreed to have them posted here. Enjoy !

666th Birdy Birdy, I really enjoy the missions you make and the Mods you do. Thanks much for your work. I always change your missions to su-25 and 25T missons. Would you mind I upload them to the missions page ? Best Regards,

NV card settings One trick I've learned from nV cards is set the AA @ 2XQ instead of 4XAA. 2XQ is equivilant to 4XAA but higher frame rates. I am running a nV 6800GT AGP and I use 2XQAA and 8XAF Also Vertical sync_ ON and Triple buffering_ ON. Set Neg LOD_ CLAMP Everything else, all the optimizations_ OFF. Set card Image setting @_ High Quality You will be able to run with 100KM pre-laod and High Vis Range. Also like Disso says above you should be operate shadows_ full Use LOCFG to set clip ranges and objects density to medium settings. Also use FC GUI configurator 1.3.0 to set fog multiplier and shadow density to 0.40 each. I am going to get me one of them cards also, soon as I get my hands on some undesignated cash. Best Regards,

Mine hurtz too, The CAS missions with choppers and 25T and A-10 are going to rock so hard it's going to hurt. How long do we have to wait for this ? Waiting Hard.......

Hi Sleek, I have a computer very simular to yours but I have NV6800GT vid card. I see you have Gainward 7900GT AGP ? Did you get it just for LOMAC ? did it improve LOMAC performance ? Regards,
