cant find it in lockon files?:(:(

OMG!... THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL!! (Rep like crazy!) Can we add them to the A-10A also!! Please please????

will dual core do any good on BlackShark?

no its 3d!

ok guys.. latest update.. Unwrapping is almost finished.. only these parts left.. antennas. inside cockpit gears Its 4 layers (files) of skin.1 for each wing, 1 for main body and stabs, 1 for the rest.. No deformations in texture on nose or any other important part.. here are some shots To Mitch.. I can give you at this state then i can update the skin files and lom while you started to do the wings and body and etc... or i can give you when every part is unwrapped.. you choose what is best for you :) Cheers Yeni.

oh..after unwrap..

DM?

LOL.. now i feel safe :)

:thumbup:

there is a new version of the pluging around here somewhere its english and no "export failure" massage..

:cry::cry::cry::cry: I am soooo jealous... This is soooo beutiful... I wanna use it.. I wanna put it under my pillow..

Thank you dice :).. i was really in doubt about that... and what a bird :) And about the square holes.. Thanks again..I wasnt sure about them ... Guys.. unwrap is almost over.. my plan is to give the bird to mitch for skining tomorrow night.. I hope i can finish it tomorrow.. Deadman.. friends?

wow.. you are great.. you can upload anywhere you want.. not important for me.. i can dowload it from..anywhere rapidshare maybe?.. its got a free of charge uploader.. it works well..

in max.. the bar on the right side "hierarchy" tab (third from left) "link info" button

maybe the rotation x,y,z is locked?

To Deadman.. I didnt say that?!?! Did i say that?.. Calm down... I know you mentioned Dice, i remember it.. i just said i wish he was here before.. thats all..didnt mean any offence and for sure i was not trying to mislead anyone.. that was a harsh word.. 4 ppl tested this thing inside and out.. wasted their times..And all the guys at the community contributed with photos and ideas..And the model get a greenlight.. Maybe its got flaws, maybe some parts that should have been there are missing, maybe there are some parts there that shouldnt be.. But its done..This can take forever you know, Putting every bit and bolt and detail in a 3d model..They didnt build the real a-10 in 1.5 month, they spend years and years. To Community Ppl shouldnt forget that this is a GAME, the a-10 in the game is with almost no detail, and we are playing with it and having fun. This is a better one by lightyears, so no need to be angry or sad or anything..Dice's knowlage is much more on this craft than any of us..I respect that and understand it.. But i respect the tester affort also.. They said go.. its a go..Modelling is done..As i said in the begining of this project. If anyone didnt like what we did, than please dont use it.. (i just wanted to states these facts out for future. Becouse i know its going to be "This is wrong, this is not right" critics about the model, and i dont care) To Dice.. Wow .. thanks for the answers.. about the question 2. My question is this.. When they are extracted. Does the back of them rise too?.. When we sstand infront of the wings, and look inside the extracted slat.. can we see the sky from the other side :) question 2 cheers. Yeniceri

It might have been a good idea 2 weeks before.. 4 ppl tested deeply, and i have been unwrapping it for almost 2.5 weeks now.. Point of modelling is past.. I wish dice was here 3 weeks before.. :(

Woah.. Thats great.. Welcome.. First question.. what are the rwr antennas look like?. in pictures some of them are round and some are cornered... Wich one is the one we should use? Second question the little AOA wings at the body wing intersection slats.... when they open, do the back of them open also?.. Third question There are some square holes near the body of the aircraft.. are they empty or do we need to fill them..(and what are they?) Fourth question Do they still use the GPS bowl thingy right behind the cockpit? (Alpha testers found out ist not used anymore.. just wanted to double check) And final question Are cockpit glasses always 2 color?..(Dark brownish in front, blue in main glass) well thats about it :) Thanks in advance Dice..

WB Deadman :).. Alpha test phase is over.. unwrapping now..

i hope my english will be enough for this :).. Skin files are paints or colors of many different parts of models on a single surface. You cannot just attach the image surface to the model.. you need to address the colors or shapes on the surface to the model.. Take pilots texture for example.. it looks like this When you want to use it to skin a 3d pilot model, you have to adress the face to the 3d face, arm to the 3d arm, legs to the 3d legs, etc. Sometimes those 3d models can be moduler.. Addressing every indivisual part is called mapping. But sometimes models are just one big pile of polys, then you need to select each poly and address the specific part of the image to that poly, that is called unwrapping.. PS. -sorry i am a bad teacher.. i hope i managed to give you an idea of unwrapping -Now imagine this on an aircraft :)

thanx bro.. i hope so

for giving you an idea of what is being unwrapped... this is just the cockpit and front gear.. :) :) :)

not started yet.. unwrap is killing me lol!

np ;)

well actually... We cant use the old pilot.. It is impossible to use some parts of the stock model and remodel the rest.. They all in the same file and you can export to that type, but you cannot import.. And i agree, you dont see the pilot that much.. But i believe that, little details makes a difference... cheers Yeniceri
