crazyeddie Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Anyone ever considered changing the Russian An 26B into something else, I have no skills in that direction but I would love to see something like the OV-10 Bronco or the C 7 Caribou in the game. The flight characteristics for the An 26 are close enough to allow it I know, I just dont know how to do it.
SuperKungFu Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 one would have to create a new 3d model of the bronco or the caribou and replace the An-26 model. We can only replace models, we do not have the power to add a completely new aircraft. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
crazyeddie Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 Just making the point, we get a new A10, a new F15, a new F5, planes we already have. No problem and no criticism of those, what is being created is first class. It would be nice to see more new types, like ADA's Jaguar for example. The existing types clearly do limit the options when it comes to something new and that must be very discouraging for the model builders out there. I guess I am going to have to teach myself some new skills to get this idea off the ground.
Azrayen Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Hi If you add new types of planes, you'll have to make (lots of) compromises. Example : The AdA Mirage 2000 replace the original MiG-29. Then : - The Mirage flies like a MiG (flight model, fuel, engine power, avionics) - We had to swap some weapons (The MICA EM is a reshaped R-77) - The A/B cones & contrails aren't at the right place on the Mirage shape. - ... and some more items. If you can live with those limitations, you can build (or asked for) a compatible 3D model of the desired plane. Then do its mapping. Then animate it with LockOn arguments. Then export it as a .lom shape usable by the sim. I just dont know how to do it. - See "the bible" here => http://lockon.co.uk/index.php?end_pos=545&scr=default&lang=en - Consider also the 3D room of the current forums, and dedicated websites such as http://www.lockon-models.com/ Cheers :) Az'
Jack Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I only just need a MiG-29UB 3D modell for Lock On..... 1 [sIGPIC]http://www.forum.lockon.ru/signaturepics/sigpic49854_1.gif[/sIGPIC]

New F-5E, J-7, F-8FN and Super Etendard are on their way into the AdA Mod by the way... :smartass: Hub. - [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
