Please make version with back cargo door and gunpods removed as Polish fly it over Afghanistan:)

[GeKoN842]

Mainstay could you make slovak digital skin ?

[Mainstay]

@Sokolus Is the green good or need it be darker or lighter?

 

[PeroperoDokkiri]

I'd say a little bit darker and tiny bit more saturated. Also not so shinny? Can't wait to fly it;)

[sokolus]

Could be little bit darker. All combat helicopters in the Polish army are painted with RAL 6031.

 

What do You think abut this one ? :)

 

[Skulleader]

Hello guys ;)

 

WOW so many incredible repaints :clap_2:

 

I've added the "exhaust heat signature reducer" to the "Czech Dark", here two photos of the real Mi-8, One screenshot of my Mi-8 and the incredible repaint of Upuaut.

This repaint is very real, the real Mi-8 and the Upuaut Mi-8 are almost the same, great work !!!

How did you add that? (Not even started skinning/modding the MI-8 yet)

[Blaze]

A line in the description.lua.

[Offlinepilot]

A line in the description.lua.

 

.and the line is? (sorry for being a newbie in .lua's)

[Blaze]

It's already in there. A custom_arg line, just change the value.

Hi,

 

 

 

Thank you very much for your hard work

[Skulleader]

Hello,

 

Oosp I'm very sorry for the delay of my answer, for add or remove the "exhaust heat signature reducer" it's very easy.

 

You must edit with Notepad++ the file named "description.LUA" of your repaint and you can found to the line #160

 

custom_args =

{

[457] = 1.0, -- EVU off

}

VERY IMPORTANT:

With 0.0 You add the "exhaust heat signature reducer"

With 1.0 you remove the "exhaust heat signature reducer"

 

If you can't found these lines or if your manipulation is no good please send me a message here...

 

Bye and good evening. Skull

Would you know how to remove the weapon pylons like NRG-Vampire did?

He's not too keen on sharing his find :cry::cry:

...probably you must know the arguments, as for the exhaust cooler

[NRG-Vampire]

...probably you must know the arguments, as for the exhaust cooler

 

sorry guys - for pylon removing you must use arg number [215] and arg number [225]

[Mainstay]

Mainstay could you make slovak digital skin ?

 

Maybe later at the moment busy with a few others

[Suchacz]

sorry guys - for pylon removing you must use arg number [215] and arg number [225]

After adding the args those holding rods are still there, pls can you write us all the arguments? Or is there any way for us to explore them by ourselves?

Hi,

 

I am working on the Slovakia Mi now.

 

 

[Skulleader]

[215] and arg number [225]

Thanks for your two arguments, I've tested the new arguments:

[1] to

[240] but for the moment whitout the same result that you...

 

With a lot of patience I hope found the arguments of the other 3D elements:

 

Cabin armour plating

Gearbox armour plating

Cargo doors

Dust protectors

Hoist

Total Hardpoints

Linkage rods

 

For me it's like the Huey, it's necessary to have one "Military Version" and one "Slick Version" for the civilian Mi-8...

 

Thanks, Skull.

 

EDIT:

WOW Upuaut, again a great repaints. I'm so excited ^^

Great job! Thank You for this repaint, but i would ask, if You can do the two things:

 

1) black area behind the exhaust

2) tactical number and stripes
