Hey,

 

I just wanted to report that some of the liveries for the B aren't accurately done and have some mirrored logos.

 

Jolly Rogers HiViz: Skull on left tail is mirrored. (Right tail is fine)

Jolly Rogers Last Ride: Skull on right tail is morrored. (Left tail is fine)

 

Im not 100% sure but I think the Grim Reapers LowViz right tail is showing a mirrored Reaper.

Could somebody please doublecheck?

 

I am not sure how much effort it is to mirror those logos on the liveries, but maybe we can expect the fix on the next patch.

Thanks for taking time.

 

The liveries for the A look so damn good. Please give the same love to the B

Again, Thanks and fly safe

I re-checked and I think you are right with the Grim Reaper.

But I think the Diamondbacks square with snake/world on left tail is also mirrored. But not sure about that.

 

But I totally agree about both Jolly Roger Skins.

HB's liverie artist was sleeping on this one 😉

 

Would it be possible to fix?

The black shadow line always comes from right-top down to the middle.

 

The Last Ride Livery Skull-logo is mirrored on right tail.

The left tail of the last Ride livery is correct.

 

This issue is also on the Jolly Rogers HiViz livery but now on the left tail:

Just the Logo on the left tail is mirrored. The right tail is correct.

 

Now lets come to the Grim Reapers livery:

I found those both real live pictures showing right and left tail:

On both sides the Scythe blade points behind the jet down the engines.

On our ingame livery, just theleft side shows this correctly.

The right side looks also mirrored like the Jolly Rogers Skulls.

Would be cool, if HB take a look at this.

I think its not much work, just flip the logo on three tails.

 

Stay healthy.

Not sure about the sleeping part. It took someone almost 2 years to spot it and report the mistake. 😉

Fixing these now.

Please keep the reports coming.

yes, thanks again ensamvarg.

But I think the Hotfix has a bug.

Mirroring issues are still the same.

Were the Diamondbacks skins touched also?

Have the Diamondbacks skins also mirroring issues?

Didn't noticed it.

While we're on it, almost all the B liveries have the stencil for the "Antenna Waveguide" underneath the starboard position light incorrectly mirrored.

i.e. VF-101 Dark

'VF-101 Red' is correct.

'VF-74 Adversary' and 'VF-24' are doubled and mirrored.

Just amazing quality control remedying this so quickly. Every HB product is a day one purchase from me. #proudF14owner. Merry Xmas. 

Actually, it's not good quality control at all or the mistakes wouldn't be there in the first place.  It's more that they are responsive to input and will correct when errors are highlighted (which is a good thing)... though, recently, there seems to be communication issues around what makes it into patches.  HB and ED need to sort this out as it comes across as a bit of a "sh_t show" with respect to owning the patch content along with some finger pointing around who's fault that is (which is not a good thing).

There are some oddities in the actual UVW mapping that might have led to this. Typically, the EXT 1 and 3 textures, which represent the Starboard side of the jet (jet's right from the cockpit). In the textures, these sides are "mirrored" or reversed in terms of text, numbers, etc. The EXT 1 and 4 representing the Port side are regular in the textures.

 

HOWEVER

 

For whatever reason, the leading edges where the glove vanes are are somehow flipped. On the EXT 3 you have to put the text regular, and on EXT 4 you have to reverse the text! So, I have a feeling that if those antenna are in the same portion of the model's UVWs as the glove vanes, that's probably why those are backwards. Or, rather the EXT 3 portion of the texture was not "flipped" like the rest of the Starboard side of the jet, and when @ensamvarg or his team did the stencils backwards as they normally would have on that side, they stayed backwards because the UVWs were not flipped. But somehow the UVWs for the wing vanes got reversed, or are drawing from the wrong sides of the jet, I don't know.

 

Further back there was an issue with the UVWs of one of those areas being incorrectly mirrored for both sides, so maybe this got caught up in that fix.
