Jace11 Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 Hi, pretty new here... Used to play Lock On in the 1.02 days but left it cause of instability and graphics bugs on my old card (more the cards fault than the game) and enjoyed playing online on the s77th servers etc.. Recently I have baught Lock On gold flaming cliffs and have enjoyed all the mods you guys have put up. Plus, I have made a few of my own too, however I don't use ModMan or Loman I just add textures to temp textures or make a fresh cdds file etc. Unfortunatley I haven't got the internet at home at the moment so i'll upload some small mods for you at the weekend when I have to pop into work. Nothing special, a new 2048x2048 res main menu mod, an R-27R texture and maybe a few other things too. Also I have enjoyed the Groundpounders mod with better tree textures, but it was a problem in that the same trees are used in summer, autumn, spring and winter. I have found a way round this. Make a cdds for the summer trees then add a line in the graphics config file common=//bazar etc pointing to your new tree cdds file. As long as you have the winter and autumn textures above it, it means you get the high res trees in summer while in autumn and winter you get gold and white respectively. I even tried hue changes on the green trees to make them look autumnal and it is easy to do, and then you can add them too so you get different trees for each season.
Jace11 Posted February 18, 2008 Author Posted February 18, 2008 Here is my little mod pack, it contains new R-27 textures, new main menu screen 2048x2048 + clock, some missions, new fainter wingtip vapour trails. I don't use modman /loman etc so its just a rar file with bits in the correct folders for extraction... Pick and choose what you want, the menu screen looks nice in my opinion and the doubled res reduces that squashed look, the R-27 texture is similar to the stock version, but I doubled the res for this and edited the metallic parts etc. The wingtip trails are something some guys requested in another forum... Also my Encyclopedia mod, just tidied up the descriptions a little and tried to standardise stuff. Nothing major. The missions are my own, (except the emergency landing one, just a stock mission edited slightly). Nice briefings but the maps do not show threats only your planes and awacs, you have to react to things as the mission unfolds. In particular I like the Rezky mission, the simple small Mig-29 missions and the F-15C intercepts, the A10A CAS mission isn't bad either... Tips, I find the Rezky mission and the Mig-29 v F-16C missions hard, in both cases you are outnumbered, however in both cases, careful maneuvering can get you a flanking position on the enemy flights. The F-15C vs Su-27 (2 v 4) mission is extremely hard since they nerfed the AMRAAM, suggest you wait for the Mirage support arriving from the north..

BrumTx Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Would be nice to see some screen shots of everything thats included with this mod, if possible Remember the 346 Fire Fighters, Medics & Police who died on 9-11....... Selective memory is a wonderful thing, especially when certain posts simply disappear into the ether never to be seen again, unless I have a copy of the original post copied and pasted into word documents and saved .... just in case :) Am I an abusive idiot ? Due to physical incapacity my Wife types my post's for me
