Pics of FLE root lights I think it would be a good addition to the model if someone could figure out how to get them working. I know it would be just eye candy, but it would also bump up the realism to F-15. If I had the skills (which by the way I don’t) to help this suggestion out, I would be all over it. Here are some links to a few pictures that show the FLE wig root lights in action. And there are lost of cool pics of F-15’s too …and other aircraft. I would have posted them, but I’m getting low on image space… Inlarge for better detail http://www.af.mil/shared/media/photodb/photos/060614-F-8260H-310.JPG http://www.af.mil/shared/media/photodb/photos/060614-F-8260H-302.JPG http://www.af.mil/shared/media/photodb/photos/060614-F-8260H-327.JPG http://www.af.mil/shared/media/photodb/photos/040914-F-0000C-003.jpg http://www.af.mil/shared/media/photodb/photos/030326-F-9528H-007.jpg http://www.af.mil/shared/media/photodb/photos/990329-F-2171A-017.jpg

Wlamis F-15, new fuel tank mod and all of Teka Teka's mods! They are sweeeeet! Just wish someone would come up with a mod so I can put my name on my AC during MP...lol

The one I have is a great tool, I know this one will be even better!

Well my thinking was that maybe it could be coded into the landing gear when it's down. Or somthing like that.

Hope it's that easy to fly in the game...lol

root lights Walmis, I know that you have been working long and hard with this fabulous model. I was watching an old war motivation video (aircraft, bombs and music) in my office when something popped up in the video. An F-15 was taking off; I noticed that on the forward leading edge of the wing roots were red lights. I have seen them in game (red patches) and just thought they were part of the paint scheme. Is it possible to turn them into working lights in the game?

Or maybe the maintenance worker (who knows nothing about Russian jets) they got to install them………..put them on backwards…lol Or it’s an SU-7 crop duster.

Truly and utterly outstanding work GA! I think we should come up with a “LockOn movie award” and give it to him…again great work!

Just did the "up-date", Wow! too easy...I wish all up-dates could come this fast and easy. Great job walmis!

Hell I would just happy if someone could tell me how to stop my X45 from sounding like two pigs under a blanket fighting for a piece of slop. It sticks and growls at me, sometimes I think it’s possessed. Along time ago someone had made a mod for it, the replacement parts were made of metal. Any way, I’m open for suggestion other then buying a new stick…I love my four five.

anomaly Ok, I know Walmis is very busy, so I will ask the masses. My inquiry refers to my post on page 31 of this thread (see photo). I have this dark portion under the right wing; I have uninstalled and reinstalled the file many times. At first I thought this anomaly might be due to a lighting affect or maybe some residual skin code or conflicting code in Loman. So again I uninstalled the file to include all mods in Loman then reinstalled the F-15 file with no mods and again the same anomaly. It appears on every skin that is included with the file (even the black 169th pattern) and appears on all mod skins (the only mod skin I use is the 44th skin). Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome

new issue Ok, I uninstalled the old one, put the new one in and POOF! I lost the second IDF skins (cammo and spear) now I just have the default one. And I have this dark portion showing up. I thought it might be a lighting affect but don’t think so.

one skin Walmis, Just did MP and there was only one IDF AF skin.

Walmis, When I put the .rar package in Modman it went through the install process again but stated that an F15 file already exist...not sure which file it was, I just clicked ok. It did say something about meinit.xml file but not sure if it said "Parsing" I was not paying attention very well at that time...sorry.

fixed some how Ok. So I took the .rar file and used Modman in conjunction with what the installer did....and "poof" I have the missing textures I was missing. Thanks for your suggestion “Supper Kung Fu”

help I need a little help from the experts, I’ve installed the new model and this is what I’m coming up with. Can someone please help me correct this? P.s. Wilmis, great job with this!!

Thanks for you advice on movie making iVIPER21, and I will give it a try. I know that my questions are like beating a dead horse to some. I have had LockOn for over a year now and have supported and defended LockOn in some knock down discussions in HL. This (rendering tracks to AVI) has always been something I did not devote a lot of attention and time to, until I wanted to make a recruitment video for my squad (44thVFW). Now I have tried in the past to render tracks, even talked to Grey Ghost on this subject and he advised me to try and talk to some experts who do this. But I have found out through this thread that there is a screen (for rendering) that has never appeared when I have tried to render in the past. So the smoking gun is there, why when after I click on the render to AVI tool, button…etc do I not get that window to come up? I have tried short tracks, and long tracks no success with either. All that happens is my current window that I clicked the render to AVI locks up. Then I just close LockOn down and give up, get on TS and fly with my squad. That was then, I would like “ED” to give me some advice on this situation and would also like to know if there are any plans to add a section to the manual that would explain how the render tool, window, page works. Some of us are no that (me anyway) smart on this subject and need a good block of instructions.

WoW! I've never seen that render screen before. How come it wont come up for me when I try to render?

Well, I made a movie! To bad it was not a LO movie, it was one for my work. I used a tool to convert rm. files to mpg. then used Vegas 6 to edit, converted then the mpg. then used windows moviemaker for the final movie. Yes, it was a big file (116mb) for 8 minutes, put two MP3 tracks on it and many small video clips. If they can put a man on the moon, metal in a microwave, why can’t I convert a lockOn track to and AVI? Or find some tool to do it, because the render tool that comes with LO doesn’t work for me. I know the masses will tell me to use another type of video capture program but I would like to use the track I have.

Help... Ok, all that went over my head. Now let us just say I have looked at the Xvid tool, the settings (do not understand how to use them) and it all looks Greek to me. How do I get from point “A” to point “B” on making a track into something I can edit using Vegas 6? Is there not a program out there that will take a LockOn track and convert it? Or are my hopes and dreams of making a LO movie never to happen because I am not able to use the AVI tool that came with my game? Just looking for some help people.

Ok, my question for help is along the same line. I have tracks that I recorded, and then try to use the LockOn AVI tool, button and I have had no luck in converting the tracks. What happens is this; it will just lock up and do nothing. I know that or I think that Xvid has something to do with it. Any links or suggestion that would help me out would be greatly appreciated

question? Q: what can I use to change a track file to an AVI, or must this be done only within lockon.

Sweet! Thanks ED, and thanks to all the hrad work done by the Beta testers. Great job by all! S!

Is the S77th server possessed? *Just a note: * Myself and I think it was vodox (something like that) were on the S77th server (like I always am) last night (26 Aug 20005 21:30hrs/22:00hrs GOYA had just departed) and thats when some strange things started happening. I have flown on the S77th since I started flying LockOn. I enjoy the server and the competition from the S77th squad. I have much respect for the S77th! With that said, there were only two AC on the server, 1 red & 1 blue (me), blue had AWACS, red did not. No one had shot down any AWACS (which btw just popped-up) after 20-30 minutes red AWACS was gone blue still flying. This is where and when the strange stuff happened. An F-15 pop-up designated by AWACS as hostile, I was tracking an AC (vodox, zoomed all the way in waiting for fire permit) when he was hit out of the blue twice, and he asked me if I had shot him, I replied "nope", I had watched the whole thing and he was fighting something but there was no other AC but me. That same F-15 started locking me up once Vodox re-spawned, I knew which one was him and disregarded the other. He too was picking up this entity. Now, I don’t smoke weed (22yrs in the military) and I was not drinking (heavily anyway) at the time. If the S77th server is being possessed, I know a guy, who knows a guy, that lives next to a guy who’s cousin’s, sister’s, mother in-law’s neighbor can take care of this for a six-pack of Coors and 10 bux’s. I’ll keep it on the DL too. But it did happen. P.S. I'm not saying it was S77th GOYA, he has always been a straight shooter. S! GOYA

I'll stick with the F-15, and wait till ED adds the F-22...maybe in 1.5 or something.
