Snoopy Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 Booooo, the world needs to see my nose art. :D Besides, it might distract them just long enough so they lawn dart. :smilewink: LOL...as we know from internally having each pilot have their own nose would make the skin file extremly huge..... v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website | v303rd Fighter Group Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Aye, not to mention the hours of placing the jets. Although in all seriousness (unusual for me I know), depending on the number of Sqns with custom skins, and how many have individual custom skins it might end up being possible if only a handful of Sqns have individual pilot skins. It's something that'll be worth looking at as time goes on and things become more solid.

Snoopy Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 Here is an example of what I'm doing. The center object is the target, the buses circle the distance for scoring criteria. All will be explained in the SOP. By doing it this way it will be clear to the judges where the BDU, Rocket, or TP rounds hit. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website | v303rd Fighter Group Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

july865 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Now, if we are talking about SOI's and not SOP's, then ok. these are essentially JUST the rules and methods of adoption to comply with the rules, in which case if this competition is what i think it is (having had a fairly in depth convo with paul the other night on TS, i'm confident i know exactly) the SOI's should be no longer than a few pages. just out of curiosity, was there a meeting with squad leaders that we had missed?

Snoopy Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 Just a quick update... -Eddie has created a DSMS file that will include all weapons profiles for the competition so you wont' have to sit and do that while on the ramp. -Initial stages of testing the mission have begun, as soon as we work out the "kinks" both the mission and SOP will be released. -As soon as they are released I'll schedule a meeting for COs (or a rep) from each vSquadron, mainly to clarify any confusion caused by the SOP and iron out any early details. -The target for the actual competition will be May 2012. This will give vSquadrons time to fly and become familial the mission, weapons delivery methods, and safe escape maneuvers (SEM), conduct internal competitions (if they so choose) to identify their 4 participating members. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website | v303rd Fighter Group Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chromium Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 A question for something that I miss (maybe): What days of the week it's going to be planned the Hawgsmoke? It's a weekend activity or a multi-evenings activity? Thanks, Lore Author of DSMC, mod to enable scenario persistency and save updated miz file Stable version & site: https://dsmcfordcs.wordpress.com/ Openbeta: https://github.com/Chromium18/DSMC The thing is, helicopters are different from planes. An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.

chromium Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I really think it would be great (especially for fraps footage and pictures) if each participating vSquadron's ACFT skin was included. Our Skin is already available on Users' files, It's included in the 21° Gruppo Tigre Skinpack, that also include Kamov skins. All the skins are in portable format, so you may simply dowload the pack, open the zip file and copy the A10 skin where you want: no other work is necessary. But, if you prefer, I'm sure that we could prepare a dedicated skin before April: Let me know :) Author of DSMC, mod to enable scenario persistency and save updated miz file Stable version & site: https://dsmcfordcs.wordpress.com/ Openbeta: https://github.com/Chromium18/DSMC The thing is, helicopters are different from planes.
