[NineLine]

Took you guys long enough :) Nice skin ;)

[gabuzomeu]

Progressing, the central tank uv mapping comes from Hell!

Almost good to go, until we have other photos. I'll upload tomorrow,

You should be able to fight Mig-28s in no time. This is how it starts:

and how it should end: back home.

Updated,

I hope we find more images of this bird in the year to come, as atm it is mostly guesswork.

Shine it does (a bit)

Gotta change the insignia on the pilot. He’s wearing Lt bars.

… and they are oriented 90 degrees off as well for Lt insignia. :music_whistling:

[gabuzomeu]

And a Captain would wear Eagles on the shoulders?

(Obviously I’m not familiar with US ranks... our captains wear 3 bars and are just above Leutnant)

Tip, Use Paths to Generate Smooth Lines, it will save you the problem of the Stair Step Edges.

Correct. Navy O-6 (Captain) is same rank as Army/Air Force O-6 (Colonel).

 

A Navy Lieutenant or Army/Air Force Captain wears "railroad tracks".

Flag patch is also backwards as well. The stars are always towards the chest.

[gabuzomeu]

Thaks Nealius, I will correct

This is the wayit was on the DCS original file

Huh, never noticed on other skins. That's odd because the flag is always supposed to look like the person wearing it is carrying it into battle rather than running away.

[gabuzomeu]

Hopefully this should take a second to fix!

Greetings Top Gun 2 fans.

 

I've corrected the "Captain Mitchell" rank issue, fixed the backwards flag and added the patch Cruise is wearing in the official movie poster.

 

Read the readme for instructions.

Navy wings are gold. That's all. I just cleaned up the nametag. Feel free to use my nametag, flag and O-6 (Capt) rank with your helmet. Maybe we can re-colorize other aspects of the flight gear as well.

 

I think a lot of people don't know that Junior Officer rank aligns vertical on the shoulder, not sideways or horizontal. Field Grade Officer rank is the opposite.
