Ditch3r Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 I took a long break from Lock On, and I must say, it's good to be back. I can not believe the number of new mods and skins available. This community is one of the best!!! Anyway on to my post. Upon my return I could not find an updated texture for the Russian style runways. Maybe I just missed it, but I decided to embark upon creating my own. I have almost finished the summer textures and wanted to share them here. Please leave me any comments or suggestions so that I can improve upon them! Once I finish up the summer pack I will work on the other seasons as well. I did not photoshop any of the files. I only resized them. :) You can also go to http://eh-guild.com/downloads/lockon/ to view all my screenshots. https://www.youtube.com/@ditch3rgames
Ditch3r Posted September 28, 2007 Author Posted September 28, 2007 Ok, Need some help now. I have created a Summer and Spring Texture set, but I can not get them to install. I change the .cdds file in the Modman add-on maker, but it seems to ignore it. Can anyone please tell me how to create a package for all the seasons? I have extracted the different season files, edited them and told Modman where to put them but it doesn't seem to work. :cry: I made an add-on if any of you want to download it and pick it apart. Download the package here... Removed Link until package is complete... Forgot to mention. It will install one of the two, usually the spring textures, if this helps at all. ..... Upon further investigation, it does not matter where I tell Mod-Man to put the files they always go to the spring .cdds file. I guess the only work around would be to make separate packs for each season and leave it up to the user to install which over one is wanted. So with this I will work on finalizing a pack and see if I can get it to work. https://www.youtube.com/@ditch3rgames
Ditch3r Posted October 2, 2007 Author Posted October 2, 2007 Thank you all, I have hit a hick-up... I had to install Vista on my system and ran into some file errors, but I hope to get back on these textures before the end of the week. :) 1 https://www.youtube.com/@ditch3rgames
Vekkinho Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 Ditcher, Your mod also changes Terrain textures during summer and spring, right?!! Well, I use HOT SUMMER MOD and installing your mod along might cause some interference because both mods use LandTexturesSumBMP.cdds and LandTexturesSumTGA.cdds files. I really like Your runway and taxiway textures but I'd like to keep using HOT SUMMER PACK LandTexturesSumBMP.cdds and LandTexturesSumTGA.cdds files for terrain. So, can You please make a mod that modifies only runway and taxiway textures, leaving out terrain files or at least advise which files are to be installed partially thru MoDMaN if one wants to install RW and TW textures only! Please! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Please! Actually I will not be importing the files directly to the .cdds files with my release so you will be fine. :thumbup: I am planning on just releasing the four different seasons as four different packs. This way I can make High resolution ones that look even better. :) My knowledge on the .cdds system is not that good, so it is better this way :smilewink: Oh, and I didn't edit any terrain textures, so it wouldn't effect your current set up anyway. The only files modified are the actual runway and taxiway textures. The terrain textures you see in my screenshots are from a different mod. https://www.youtube.com/@ditch3rgames
Vekkinho Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 Cool, so I can install the mod available from the link you've posted and now removed or should I wait 'til it's all finished?! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Ditch3r Posted October 3, 2007 Author Posted October 3, 2007 I removed the link because that file was nothing but trouble. I am planning on having a summer pack released by the end of the week though, barring any problems :lol: https://www.youtube.com/@ditch3rgames
