MikeMikeJuliet Posted May 21 Posted May 21 Great to see modders adding some very welcome (and might I even say, crucially needed) cold war aircraft to the game! Even if "only" FC-level of complexity, the fact that this can be flown at all closes the gap we have right now between the early cold war and modern era jets on the redfor side. Great work so far! 3 DCS Finland | SF squadron
sa63114200 Posted May 26 Posted May 26 I am excited about this mod. I am ready to create an Iranian IRGC skin based on the following livery to complement my other skins (see: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3320065/). 5
VinntoreZ Posted May 31 Author Posted May 31 Updated (more like fixed lol) normalmaps with roughmets/speculars. For those that arent into 3d stuff - normals are textures that make flat surfaces look 3d, and roughmets and speculars are those controlling how rough or shiny is the surface. 29 3 ------------------------ VinntoreZ ------------------------- Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@vinntorez My Modding Discord: https://discord.com/invite/6yqcEngfE8 Support my work: https://buycoffee.to/vinntorez

KomandorAdam Posted June 1 Posted June 1 The model looks a hundred times better than the ED from LockOn. Do you 3D model it yourself or did you buy it?

Volator Posted June 2 Posted June 2 Great mod project! The positive reactions show how appreciated this is and how badly DCS needs a good Su-17/Su-22 module. All the best to you @VinntoreZ 1 1./JG71 "Richthofen" - Seven Eleven

For those that arent into 3d stuff - normals are textures that make flat surfaces look 3d, and roughmets and speculars are those controlling how rough or shiny is the surface. Before release, please improve the front landing gear model. It sits way too low here. The Su-22M4 on the ground has a rather characteristic silhouette, and the model unfortunately differs from the one we have in reality in this respect. Even under a heavy load, it should not sit as low as on the screenies. Btw. There is also a certain disturbance in the geometry of the canopy. How to call it - there is a bit too much glass and too little fuselage in this place. It is not a big problem and currently I can only base myself on these screenshots, but the fairing itself is too big in this place. At least that's how it looks. It would be nice to do it if possible.

YoYo Posted June 3 Posted June 3 (edited) As for proportions, it is visible here. The canopy seems too big for the rest and it is not perspective because it is visible in other screenshots. One of the worst editions of Su-22 paper models is the "Mały Modelarz" model from 1990 and 2003. It had very bad proportions in this place. Of course, your model is not as bad, but somehow it reminded me of that - http://www.kartonowki.pl/modele-galeria/model/3559,su-22-fitter-mm-2003. Very well, it was done in the Sniper's model (below) and there the proportions are correct. Sometimes the scan and transfer to 3D by machine can cause some disproportions, which are worth assessing by eye anyway. Real one: I think it's worth improving it because these aspects are quite visible, although I'm also a purist, so maybe not everyone will be bothered by it ;).

Thanks for those references, I will change the landing gear height. I don't plan on changing the fuselage dimensions, it would require redoing a lot of animations and other stuff, and the difference is barely visible. This was meant as a simple modding project, not 1:1 version of Su-22 in dcs. If you don't like it's proportion and dimensions then wait for Snipers Su-22 8 1 ------------------------ VinntoreZ ------------------------- Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@vinntorez My Modding Discord: https://discord.com/invite/6yqcEngfE8 Support my work: https://buycoffee.to/vinntorez

I know that interfering with the fuselage would also entail necessary changes in textures and also in the cockpit itself, and that's quite a lot of work. In any case, thanks for the willingness to change the front gear leg. As for the Sniper model - let's consider this project abandoned and we will 99.99% not see this model at all. Sniper is currently working on a paid Tornado project, so there's no chance of that. 1 Webmaster of http://www.yoyosims.pl Win 10 64, i9-13900 KF, RTX 5090 32Gb OC, RAM 64Gb Corsair Vengeance LED OC@3600MHz,, 3xSSD+3xSSD M.2 NVMe, Predator XB271HU res.2560x1440 27'' G-sync, Sound Blaster Z + 5.1, TiR5, [MSFS, P3Dv5, DCS, RoF, Condor2, IL-2 CoD/BoX] VR fly only: Meta Quest Pro
