Mig-21 bis for LockOn

[beczl]

All depends on your wish to cooperate with Coyote.

Not approved by him = no chance to include 3D model officially.

I already try to contact him twice, but he has no answer for my PM. :huh: (I sent the last one 9days ago)

I hope it will be released as download from Your website before an unofficial addon by ED :)

This is long awaited MOD and as You know there was few attempts before but i dont think anyone got as far as You.

Yeah I know, I waited for a long time for a Mig-21 in LockOn too, and when I recognise to nobody can do it, i decide I'll do it. :thumbup:

 

Remember about templates for skins as this aircraft was used by so many countries it will be perfect object for skin artists.

:thumbup:

 

It's already planned. The Mig-21 will have a 2048x2048 texture, and I'll release a template for an artists of course.

That was exactly my feeling when started to model the Gripen ! Why waiting for a mod if you can do it yourself ?:music_whistling:

[JaNk0]

God Bless People like you guys! :P

[Vekkinho]

Thanks guys. :thumbup:

P.S.: All parts marked yellow will be animate.

 

Nose cone too?!

[beczl]

Nose cone too?!

Yes. of course! :-) And the engine convergent variable nozzle too.

 

The plane pass through some flight/animation test today. All animation in place and finished except cone and engine.

Thanks. Vekkinho. I already found this. :-)

 

I have another issue about main gear animation:

 

Everything looks like good even I try to assign an argument77 as main gear rotate animation to the main gear. The gear warped, and bounced everywhere.

 

See this start in 1:00: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvBcP9Fc5oI

 

Any help is appritiated.

I've bounced into this wheel problems a few times, but then in max. What I did to fix it was to make a helper object and linked the wheel to this object. THen I animated the helper object to do the animation, and that fixed it. Also remember to have one animation key for each 90*, so one for 0, one for 90*, one for 180, and 270 and finally 360. Otherwise the rotation wont show properly in lockon. Hope this helps:thumbup:
