Western's reworked template Boeing 727 (+ 747 wip) of Civil Aircraft Mod

[western_JPN]

I reworked the Boeing 727's template of Civil Aircraft Mod , original by Warlord64 .

 

New template's DL link is here in GIMP xcf format.

I retouch size of doors and move the positions of doors and windows.

It makes easier to draw historical airline liveries from photos.

When you want to draw color stripes around windows , the stripes have to be tilted 0.77 degrees.

 

I also retouch Normal map and Rough-Met textures to fit the new diffuse texture, and decided to pack those textures as 

zip file to be placed in Mods\ aircraft\ Civil Aircraft Mod\ Textures\ folder.

It works as decreasing Liveries folder space in 1/3 .

When you see strange checker blocks on the skins in DCS World, the "Boeing 727 Common Normal map / RoughMet Textures pack Rev3" is not installed / not set-up correctly.

As the results of my new template, those liveries are done.

Continental Airlines 1980s and USAF C-22s , United Airlines 1980-90, Hughes Airwest + PSA + Republic and Western 1970-80s skins.

Please feed back how about my new 727 skins or template.

 

                                                                

 

In 2022, I begin to rework also Boeing 747 template based on Warlord64's one and Minsky's new white skin + Normal - RoughMet textures.

The template is still wip, not published.

 

I moved whole the texture a bit to mirrored left side and right side correctly in 3D , stripes can be rendered without gaps on the nose or tail. Both sides windows and doors are positions on the same height in 3D. The cockpit shield is centered.

Normal map and RoughMet textures are also retouch to match the new diffuse texture.

I've published "Boeing 747 Common Normal map / RoughMet Textures pack Rev 2" as same as for Boeing 727.

[western_JPN]

My 1st post is edited.

 

Skins' Links of Continental 1980s (Rev2) and USAF C-22s (Rev2) are added.

Both are uploaded and updated just today.

 

United's sample is temporary deleted.

Now I try to retouch them again.

 

Template is not published yet, but I want to hear your requests about the template --- only blank white one is needed ? or some color stripes as sample are needed ?

[western_JPN]

 Continental Airlines 1980s and USAF C-22s are updated as Rev 3 with also updated "Boeing 727 Common Normal map / RoughMet Textures pack Rev3".

 

DL links are not changed from Rev 2.

[western_JPN]

My new GIMP xcf template is now available in User Files section and its DL link is in my 1st post.

Its GIMP sample screenshot is also there.

I changed the title of this topic referring Works In Progress Boeing 747's template.

I try to merge Warlord64's template and Minsky's white skin + new Normal map RoughMet textures.

[western_JPN]

I edited Boeing 747 template and RoughMet + Normal map textures again and named them as "Revision 2".

 

All uploaded files have been updated, now.

"Revision 2" skins and materials are not compatible to old "Revision 1" each other.

They have more historical size and positions about windows and doors, door under protectors.

Air ACT cargo and Magma Aviation are added new variants.

Garuda Indonesia's 2001 -400 has historical windows arrangement as its large galley is placed in starboard side and many windows are closed between R1 - R2 doors and its portside between L1 - L2 doors has full opened windows.
