Alex150201 894 Posted January 16, 2017 Just now, road runner said: it wasn't just about the CH-46 crashing though was it? Man the video was about a CH-46 trying to land on a ship but fails and it crashes into the water. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
road runner 4344 Posted January 16, 2017 it was a compilation of crashes My guess It was deemed to be more "off topic", so it was removed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

da12thMonkey 1943 Posted January 21, 2017 7 hours ago, flanders25 said: Thats in fact one of the bugs holding a release back, as mentioned earlier. Issue could be that your door texture has an alpha channel that shouldn't be there. Texture needs a proper _co.tga suffix before converting to _co.paa. This '_co' in the filenamemakes the BIS tools save them as a 24bit texture with no alpha channel. _ca.tga/_ca.paa suffix will save as 32bit with alpha, and often if you have no suffix at all the tools will opt to make the .paa 32bit from some formats. Textures that do need alphas, (such as window glass) should be separate from the fuselage textures so you can save them as 32bit _ca.tga while keeping the fuselage as 24bit _co.tga If the above two conditions are in place and the problem still persists, you can try setting forceNotAlpha = 1 as a named property in the model's Geometry LOD. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eggbeast 3684 Posted January 21, 2017 another step in fixing this, which worked on NI's H21c was to select the main textures and ctrl shift home (bring to top), then repeat for the decals, rotor blur (if part of the main model) and finally window glass. this means glass is on top, with rotor blur next, then decals and below them the main textures. if you add new components to the model, (e.g. a 50 cal) be sure to repeat this process, to ensure the new parts go below the main textured parts in face ordering. fixes the problem for us 100% of the time. i'm guessing this step wouldn't be necessary if you followed monkeys advice as there wouldn't be any "confusion" about transparency going on in your texture pack.

When the aircraft is not flying, correct, you can walk throughout the cabin. As far as I am aware, an engine limitation would not allow us or anyone to make the aircraft walk able while in the air. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eggbeast 3684 Posted March 5, 2017 we had to strip out all our roadways in chinook and mi-8 etc as the ship would not start its engines if spawned flying - it thought it was on the ground lol. so if your ships start with AI in them in the air, does the roadway not cause this? ifso, i'd love to know how you managed it. i gave up after a lost week trying. congrats on your enlistment - enjoy the pepper spray and gas in basic lol 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
