This is fantastic great work!!! .. have you ever thought to do some planes that we can really exchange and use like .. Mirage 2000/Mirage 2000D high quality, SU25, rafale, Mig's ? That would actually be fantastic. Do you only do models for Lockon ?

You probably talking about this one.. 1C\Eagle Dynamics\Ka-50\Scripts\Aircrafts\Ka-50\Cockpit\Hint_localizer.lua

Yes that would be very helpful.. :) because checking what specific setting is changing and each time boot the game up... would take a long time ;) ..

Yes .. the problem is that Option.lua is not very precise.. while BS need some much more precise settings ala LO Btw: Evil check out this, It's very interesting and maybe some resolutions to be added into future releases. http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/23110283/m/5441008017

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do not use Notepad to edit "ANY" kind of files with BS.. It will corrupt and wont get you into the pit.. Luckly i backed up my install 3 or 4 duplicates of Black-Shark..!! This should be in "Red letters" and sticky not a faq in a thread.. EvilBivol-1's notes are useful... ;) thx

Arg!!! Nooooooo Thx i'm looking

you have to download the other files as well.. 800 something MB Do not unzip, place the both files into a folder .. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=34751

Well before i could make my own distance view by creating a new set of medium, high etc.. but now i cannot see my custom one in the option.. Any idea ? Thanks

Paying for Black Shark $24 or 49 $ is not a problem and it's well worth it.. Sometime when you pay 49$ for a small FSX addon make me feel robed ... to end up very disappointed .. Also if you want to make some nice gifts to sim friends, do them a favor buy them BS :) or a copy of Flaming CLiff .. ;)

Works great Server 2008-64 sustaining 95/100's fps on SLI. Need some tweaks on the SLI driver setup.

This is bad, if the pilot is faulty i hope something will be done against.

Btw do we have a Skin download host to client in BS ? A la IL2 ... If not ED Team get to work instead of roaming the forum .. hehehe ! ;)

What is important is to respect the lightness of the files, meaning the textures should look better with the same size or a tight bigger for modern video cards, you want everyone to feel good about using them with no FPS loss. Textures size is very important in Lockon. When you work on your textures work them at higher resolution and also with many layers as possible. Those textures now are 2 years old, I have no interest on doing Western style runways for the moment on Russian bases unless maybe with future maps. It would be interesting if some of us could get together and make the airbases with different artists style representing the real bases, someone could do one and the other painter an other, it would add so much personality to each base and map ( no funky ones, and there are many ). If ED would give us the possibility to add the painted lines ( Alpha ) on top of the textures tiles it would boost and facilitate the work for a mush better result. I respect very much the fact that you started from scratch and not pasting a picture. Work the tiles like you would for a "Plane skin"..add the weathering it will look great. The problem also is to find the right way to downsize the textures and respecting ED base setup tiles which is a pain. Some pics of many early tests I always wanted to do grass but never really could with the limitation that we have, imagine a texture with alpha channel not placed horizontally but vertical and create some kind of grass ( ultra small weight ) at the base runways taxi ways or parkings.. I wish ED could hear this and give us something to work with.. Taxi way landing.... bad!!!!! ;) Different Testing different styles also trying to make the blocks textures connections look ok. ( hard under Lockon ) Do we know this plane ? ;)

Here some pictures of some old textures for Lockon that can work well for BS with a bit of work. I never did release them for different reasons, those are entirely made by me. Is it worth to releasing my work ? I can make each base with different feeling and textures ( Russian ) I definitely can do much more , I could also make the correct traffic painted lines if i had the file or the tool for it but i don't so it's always limited as simple tiles. if no one really care it's not a big deal ;) . ~S

Tharos thanks for a good dose of hope, :) this is what kind of spirit we need :)

Well, This is the only Sim that you can actually enjoy hoovering for 2 hours and figuring out the Data link system... ;)

Looks good

Ofcourse!

Look at this very interesting Concept by Gozr i'm sure some could try it with BS and write up their findings.. http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/23110283/m/5441008017

Tango could you try 1280x1024 ? Make the water one down not at max the rest maxed.. In your texture in the nvidia make it performance. ( SLI "on" try forced Split and Alternate 1 to see if you get better results) The 7950GX2 is a bit special.

Here what i did on mine since i have to Zoom out a tight always before to start which was becoming annoying.. Go to snapviews.lua At the bottom of the page # 9 ( Ka-50 ) 13 is the number for the cockpit.. You can change your as your wishes Default is :Snap[9][13]["viewAngle"] = 89.777544238285 New is: :Snap[9][13]["viewAngle"] = 98.0 Which make the cockpit view a tight away. perfect ( CRT monitor ) Wide Screen may need different setting have fun.

all max just water a notch down. i get around 98 fps

The original looks better.. don't like too much those tiles.

The Russian DVD is a collectible idem ... ;)

I have both , DVD from them and the download version.. 2 weeks.
