Kerbo 416 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 (edited) Hello all, The Mirage F1 is one of the cold war modules I fly the most, however I had an issue with the textures as I felt that they were too flat and pixelated. thus I took it upon myself to redo the textures as best I can. this is still very WIP but the list of improvements and work left to do can be seen below. in the meantime here are a few WIP images. This work is done in a more general fashion then my usual liveries in the hopes that I can provide a template in the end for users to create their own liveries with the new textures, the camos and the lines are the same from the original template provided by Aergas but heavily modified, while the labels have not been modified. Enjoy~ List of Improvements: Entirely New Roughmets to give the aircraft depth and detail Entirely New Normal maps (possibly in 8k if storage space permits) to remove the pixelated lines and add, depth detail and realism Entirely New Weathering which includes oil leaks, panel wear, and paint wear integrated with the Roughmet Heavily modified Panels and rivets to remove the pixels around the panels and reduce the strength to something that is more comparable to real life List of WIP items that need to be completed: Removal of seams and other errors Underside weathering Horizantal stab. weathering + RMs Improve normals, especially on the fuselage Apply changes to other variants (EE, BE) Here are some images and comparison gifs: Comparison GIFs Ingame Screenshots: Edited February 15 by Kerbo 416 28 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lengro Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Very nice work, really looking forward to try it out, both this one and the upcoming from the developers! One thing though, I think the underside should be aluminium and not light grey for this particular skin? I asked about this some time ago: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked about this some time ago: you are probably right, I think it's silver paint. but RN the focus isn't on the livery so much as it is on the textures in general.
