SuperKungFu Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 (edited) Alright here you go guys, the Sim-mod A-10 skin template by rockwelder, deadman, and ruggbutt is ready to be released. We know we originally promised to release it with the model, but there was a last min change in detail and it dramatically made the plane look a lot better. A lot of work has gone into this template so hope you guys make good use of it. I expect to see some cool looking skins out there! Here are the download links for the template: http://www.virtual-jabog32.de/index.php?section=downloads&subcat=13&file=926&lang=en&PHPSESSID=3048d90f67bcec582e9e212f1cadc6bd http://www.megaupload.com/?d=KKA3Z3CL http://iplaster.net/rugg/simmod_a10_template.zip More Mirrors such as LockOnFiles would be up shortly.

SuperKungFu Posted August 24, 2008 Author Posted August 24, 2008 Most A-10s are in the standard color grey, but to get you boys start thinking in the right direction, here’s a couple of other real A-10 color schemes that were thought of. Some of them were actually made. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

SuperKungFu Posted August 25, 2008 Author Posted August 25, 2008 Rugg included quite a lot of nose art that you can toggle through photoshop [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
SuperKungFu Posted September 1, 2008 Author Posted September 1, 2008 A couple tips since I see a couple people are trying out with the template: On default, when you open some of these psd files in photoshop, for example, the Hogbody, if you show the shark mouth, it looks like there's another layer of the mouth behind the main one, just uncheck it the secondary layer to show the proper one. There's are a view things not shown such as some decas or rivets, its up to you to check them on or off. But the main thing I want to talk about is the Hogextra.psd. I highly recommend some of you to use a cdds browers and extract one of the Hogextras from the a10-bmp.cdds file that was included in the SIM-MOD A-10. There you would find some details that you could use. For example, some of the panels (the black rectangles) in the template are blank, you could go under the drop-down menu labeled detail and see some of the old textures we had. Or use the extracted bmp files from the stock skins and rip it out from there. Gears are also (by default) white, you might want to add some details. A MAIN NOTE: i believe the gun face that was included in the hogextra template doesn't match up with the gun holes. I would recommend you to turn it off under the decals drop down menu. As for the wings, i see some details missing like the interior of the airbrake or the airbrakes itself. You could use the stock skins to get the details or make a better one. Hope these tips help.
