Sunjah Posted January 6, 2009 Posted January 6, 2009 Is there a way to see them ahead of time? I don't do multiplayer, so that's not a problem, but as of now I am guessing what they will look like. I have begun to change them via mission editor, but would love to know what each looks like beforehand. Remember, on Nov. 4th, vote for Black Shark for President!!!
Sunjah Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 (edited) Fictional Digital Camouflage & Fictional DOSAAF not good. ( Ka-50 SkinPack by Mitch Janssen Mod LOF v1.zip from lockonfiles ) I get this now, too. I have tried using the Moose guy's files to have all at once (wouldn't work before that, either. This is driving me crazy. Now I can't seem to get these working. I downloaded all 4 packs I think Moose was talking about; Mitch2 & 3, the DOSAAF/Digital, and his Canadian 4-pack. Only 3 Canadians show up in-game on the list, and the only one I tried did not show up at all (invisible helo problem). Can anyone help? HELP!!! Please, for the love of the COMMIE BASTARD HORSE FOR PRESIDENT, someone help...:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry: Edited January 11, 2009 by Sunjah Remember, on Nov. 4th, vote for Black Shark for President!!!
CrazyD Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 I too like more skins options to pick from, and every time I've tried to install the great works of art from the community, i get everything from glowing golden helos to invisible helos, to helos with missing parts. I thank God or someone here who recommended saving the original Config/Bazaar/Script folders, cause its been just great deleting those botched folders and copying the originals back in. So now I've given up on new skins until this problem getting them installed has been settled. (and I'm really looking forward to using Blitz-Hawk's Canadian skin - got it working for the English version yet?)
NRG-Vampire Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Hey Guys !

soup55 Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Great Job!!! What do you charge for a custom job? Yep, I don't have the skills, and, would pay for a custom, personalized skin. You're doing some FINE work! Much thanks! :worthy: KSC [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] SOUP55:matrix:

I think some are in there though, such as desert2. I think I had to add by hand to the countries.lua so I could fly 4 aircraft; I know it was Turkey, Turkey1, I think Desert 2 and USMC. There is a gray one in there; I kind of wondered if some skins are used but names don't match. Only ever saw one Turkey skin listed, but two show up (Turkey & Turkey 1). I kind of wondered if one of them WAS the Dragon skin, etc., etc. Just a hunch, no proof yet, but several of them would seem to have matches (Black, Black 26, Desert 2, Apache Green, Dark Grey, Light Field). Now why they would name the "file" one thing, and then the in-game name differently, I have no clue. I did notice that several of the "names" in-game didn't match that list you have above, though. They had to have come from somewhere... Remember, on Nov. 4th, vote for Black Shark for President!!!
Sunjah Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 I went back and checked, and I think that is it. There are no skins for "Standard," "Standard {faded}," "Werewolf," "Turkey 1," etc. I went back and matched up each skin I have (30) that I can use, some with the name exact, some I matched up "Werewolf=Desert 3." There is no Werewolf skin, so it would make sense. I know there were 4 aircraft assigned to other countries. I added them to Russia and now I can use them. They were USMC Gray, Turkey, Turkey 1 (I think this IS Dragon) and Desert 2 (or maybe 1, but definitely a "desert"). Once I added them, they show up as choosable skins. Well, matching all I can use to fly with and the list in the file, only 3 came up unaccounted for. They were: Night, Dark Gray, Dark Dirty. I have a feeling they are probably associated to another country and so they don't appear on our lists. Of course, I could be wrong and "Dragon" is an unaccounted one and the Turkey 1 is actually "Night." I am pretty sure, though, aside from Mitch skins and a few others to add, that we have almost all of them from "in-game." Remember, on Nov. 4th, vote for Black Shark for President!!!
Sunjah Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Ka-50_Fictional_Dragon_Scheme Well, I did a search through the 4 files countries.lua, k-50.lua, ka-50.skins and graphics.cfg, and this sucker didn't show up anywhere. Unless it is embedded in something, I can't find it. My theory might be wrong, but it is the only one I have right now, so I'm sticking to it.

bumfire Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Did anyone get mitches skins to work ? as I got the missing textures that people were compliaing about and I followed mitches instructions to insert files to the letter, so has anyone managed to get his skins to work ?

Ulrich Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 (edited) Of course, I could be wrong and "Dragon" is an unaccounted one and the Turkey 1 is actually "Night." Dragon skin was not included in release version and even late betas. You may call it an experiment. Edited January 23, 2009 by Ulrich

Sunjah Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Hi Guys, Just thought I would have a look at this, and for some reason I have not got those lines, just the ones you see below. Timm I think he is talking about the entries in the "graphics.cfg" file. That is where I found the list. Whoever said this was a ridiculously complicated way to deal with skins, they get a gold star. I guess they had to do it this way, I could not imagine someone making this system on purpose. Remember, on Nov. 4th, vote for Black Shark for President!!!
Sunjah Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Look in Eagle Dynamics\Ka-50\Bazar\World\WorldTexturesBMP3.cdds Not really sure I understand. The *.bmp files are there for a lot of helicopter skins (I definitely saw "Black Shark," "Werewolf," "Black with yellow stripes {my personal favorite}," in there. They weren't named, though, so maybe "Desert3 = Werewolf." That is the connection I am not seeing anywhere, to prove or disprove this theory. Who knows? I have 30 I can use now, would love more, and hope there is a "Dragon" skin and a "Night Mission" skin. The more the better I always say! Remember, on Nov. 4th, vote for Black Shark for President!!!
antagonist Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Don't want to derail the thread but curiosity got the better of me. Is this a newer model KA-50 in the picture above? I'm guessing that the globe is a FLIR system and also that the Shkval is mounted higher in the nose to accommodate this? -- Murphy That's a Ka-50Sh, a newer model that improves on the original's less than optimal performance at night. Just got that from Wikipedia.
MarcPhoenix Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Hiya Mitch :) Do you want make your skins Modman compatible please ? TIA :D:pilotfly: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] History of the Black Shark 1, 2 Le sort du Requin Noir: 1, 2, 3.
Brach Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Hey Mitch, For those who are a bit less shavvy at all this modding stuff, would you be able to make a ModMan package of your skins? This would avoid all the manual editing of files and risks of things going wrong and stuff. Might be worth the time investment instead of having to explain to everyone how to edit files. Just a thought. ;) Great skins btw. :thumbup:
iRocco Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Is there a compilation of mitchs skins which are modman friendly? cant find anything on lockonfiles :(
Brach Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 Mitch, Are you out there still mate? You'd really do us a favour with a ModMan compatible package, since your skins really look very good. Any chance you will be able to do that?

Omdra Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Nice looking skins there m8, just fear that they might have ended up in the wrong place, as the "New KA-50 Skins" was originally used by Mitch to present his work.
ebabil Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 i have downloaded mitch's skins , how i can get these skins work ?

GreenGriffon Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 Nice skin, but again, this thread belongs to Mitch for advertising his own work. You might want to start your own thread for your stuff.
