Files ( dds ) inside the folder: Liveries\SA342M\Ukraine Army

 

{"2k_body", 0, "2k_test_body", false}; work

{"2k_legs", 0, "2k_legs.dds", false}; work

{"2k_test_helmet", 0, "2k_test_helmet.dds", false}; no work.

UK fictional Desert - Unmarked, as in no serial numbers

Will probably dirty her up at some point.

 

Empire Test Pilot School - unmarked.

Will do the other versions after the hello kitty livery.

 

Please download and check to see if I have missed anything or where I can improve on them..

{"2k_test_helmet", 0, "2k_test_helmet.dds", false}; no work.

Try this:

    {"2k_pilothelmet",0,""2k_test_helmet.dds",false},
   {"2k_wsohelmettexture",0,""2k_test_helmet.dds",false},

 

What you can do is open the EDM file (e.g. sa342M.edm) in a hex editor and then look for the default filename (e.g. 2k_test_helmet). When the search comes up, you'll see the Mat name just before it.

This isn't exactly Hello Kitty, but it is the Black Veal Squadron!

 

 

 

A close up of the pilot and WSO

 

And a glimpse of the back of the helmets sporting the DFA on the wire box. Yes, that is cattle in a tornado. :D

awesome job with the pilots! Commander looks a little less creepy.

Did I read somewhere that polychop were looking into doing british flight suits for the pilots of the UK gazelle?

[Keshman]

Try this:.......

Many thanks! Now it works :)

LOL, it must be the lighting. i didn't touch the faces. :D

[joey45]

Hey Polychop, could you add the Cabbage heads I mean the Royal Marines Gazelle as they operated them as well... It's the same camo pattern so no need to make a new one, just replace Army with Royal Marines on the boom...

As soon as finished and tested by the 229th i'll upload it on the user's files.

 

:thumbup:

 

Any chance you could let us know when it gets uploaded please?

[Doum76]

Sad, i only have Photoshop CS 5.5, and there is an effect done in the PSD, possibly done by a more recent version and when i open the file, it ask to either keep layers or flatten, the prob seems to come mainly from the rivets layers, maybe a layer effet or something, because when i open and keep layers, rivets doesn't appears and i would need to adjust each layers to make them appear and i don't know what layers blending you guys used. :( So i made my fictionnal Skin starting from Israeli AF and photo touch-up eveything to chance colors and add RCAF markings.

 

EDIT: Can anyone please write down the exact string to add in the description file for the pilots change (legs, body, helmet etc...)

Try like this:

 

{"2k_body", 0, "2k_test_body", false};

{"2k_legs", 0, "2k_legs.dds", false};

{"2k_pilothelmet",0, "2k_test_helmet.dds",false};

{"2k_wsohelmettexture",0, "2k_test_helmet.dds",false};

{"2K_WSO_bat_cables", 0, "2k_bat_n_more_test.dds", false};

{"2k_bat_pilot", 0, "2k_bat_n_more_test.dds", false};

 

For me, it works for a flight form and helmets + picture back on the helmet.

P.S. Earlier me here helped "Home Fries".

Thanks alot! Did work, now i am trying with the hand and vest, will see if it works, and how did you edit the flightsuit/body to get rid of the camos but keeping all the stiches?

 

EDIT: So far all worked, found out a Hex Editor for Notepad++ and Home Fries tricks to open the model in Hex does help :)) If anyone wants to use the strings to change all what is linked to the pilots, feel free, just take out the « SA342_Canada_RCAF_ » at the beginning of all file names and you get the exact file names found in the default Gazelle skins.

 

Here's some screenshots of the final so far, will be uploading a V2 on the file sections including the pilots skin.

I have a very simple coloring flight suit, without stitches.

 

 

My version of Photoshop when is first opened PSD file does not show a texture of lines and rivets ...

The picture as it is and as it should be.

 

 

Sorry, I do not know how to write more correctly! :(

Thanks for your reply, you wrote it all clear. :)) I thought you were able to get your hands on the Photoshop Files with layers for the pilot uniform :)

[flyingscotsman]

You gotta post the Hello Kitty, a wee lassie will be dissapointed otherwise, and you never know you might have to get a Lady Penelope request. lol

You do realise there may be some ex marines watching this!:)

That skin would be awesome too, had the Marines assistance in Belize, and did a course in the highlands with them. Great people, Dad was a Commando,(Original) they took the mick no end for me being a crabfat but nothing but respect for my Dad. Hats off to all

I just did a test for the flightsuite, i'm trying to make one with digital camo as our soldiers have, but i'm lossing details as i pt the texture over in the DDS, but i went in the bump DDS file, and took the RED channel as shadow and the green chanel as highlight, and but them over the texture, it adds a bit more details, let me know what you think, on right side, texture over normal and left side, with shadow and highlights added. and the result it makes.
