Hudson 0 Posted December 19, 2003 I wonder if we can use a custom animation for the gears, or it has to retract to front always?I can add folding wings to Su-33 easily, I just have to cut it between flaps and ailerons I guess ... You can use custom animations on just about anything, the Su27 family does have some pretty fancy landing gear though in real life. The animations might get a little crazy if you want the gear to move as it does in real life. Might be better to just move it one direction since this is your first addon. Not anything to fancy. If you do decide to split the wings dont forget that the Su27 family dosent use a aileron and flap system on the wings like most aircraft, the two are combined... Quote[/b] ]By the way, I would like to know why people dont add gunner to two-seat fighters, or prevent gunner optics to pan around? Is it immpossible to make gunner lase targets and release some LGB on them? or anybody didnt give it a try yet??? We spent 3 months just splitting the user actions between pilot and gunner, adding that 2nd man in the cockpit really complicates the scripting at times.

m21man 0 Posted December 19, 2003 Quote[/b] ]The pic I linked to wasnt the best pic to show the weapons used. We are planning on only 2 different loadout versions. One naval and one mixed AA/AG. We allready have R27, R77, R73, Kh-31, RBK-250, KAB-500, and ZAB-500 munitions on the aircraft and working, even the napalm ( fun stuff  ) Here is a better angle showing the weapons... That is a huge number of weapons for one aircraft . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waffendennis 0 Posted December 19, 2003 A little update I am working on the model now and Blackace is doing to cockpit. What I did now on the model is: 1: Rescaled it to the right and real lifr size because when i imported it the plane was to small. 2: Puted the Window textures on it 3: Placed the pilot lod 4: Named some sections like: Clan Wing and so on Well check them out here: Pic1 Pic2 I need to add some textures to it. Oh... And dont watch the quality it's just a quick made pick thats saved in the bad jpg file type. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackAce 0 Posted December 19, 2003 Thanks for the replies and Thanks to Hellfish6 moving topic to proper area, and cleaning up my mess anyways, Here are some additional photos featuring updated texture and decals... (and an additional camouflag...) now I have to add gears and improve cockpit instruments... www.geocities.com/blackacelead/Su30-1.jpg www.geocities.com/blackacelead/Su30-2.jpg www.geocities.com/blackacelead/Su30-3.jpg *You know the drill I guess I thought that Gunner in planes would be working like Gunner in helicopters... however it would be great if anyone can code something like that...

BlackAce 0 Posted December 19, 2003 RIGHT ON TIME ! I will upload new textures and decals (dont worry decals are on seperate meshes, so you dont need to do additional work unless you remember the scale of new model) By the way, it seems smaller than it should be, this is a two-seat Flanker, anyways new model has seats so you can adjust it to proper scale I guess... I hope you didnt experience any problems with mesh...

Crowley 0 Posted December 19, 2003 The quality of work on these looks really good, but the models look quite chubby compared to the real thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackAce 0 Posted December 19, 2003 Yes model isnt that good, reason is I didnt model it to be a high-poly model at first and it isnt very effective when you brush it up to make it seem better. Model quality&poly count should be planned from start, So there isnt much to do, however improving texture quality further would make it better I guess...

Consigliere 0 Posted December 21, 2003 I hope the Russian Air Force adopt more camo schemes for the Platypus, seeing that as well as a maritime strike aircraft, it is a ground attack aircraft, and that blue just doesn't really work for that role Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfish6 7 Posted December 21, 2003 Though I'm really looking forward to the SU-34, this topic is about Blackace's models. Silesian, could you please post any future pics in a new topic (maybe we can get a discussion thread about your team's addon going that way) specifically for the SU-34? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackAce 0 Posted December 21, 2003 BlackAce, ACE, ACE anyways, Su-34 is looking GREAT! but what about cockpit? About camouflags, I have 3 camouflags for now but I can create infinite color schemes, each one costs me a minute for now I have a Grey, Forest, and a custom camo. Brown, Dark Yellow, Dark Red... But I think I will also add Desert and Naval camouflags, which will cost me 2 minutes I love Paintshop Pro... By the way, at the moment Im working on Su-30 cockpit and found some new material for it, some in-work shots www.geocities.com/blackacelead/Co01.jpg www.geocities.com/blackacelead/Co01.jpg www.geocities.com/blackacelead/Su30.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trenchfeet 0 Posted December 21, 2003 if you want to look at another side to the setup and scripting of planes head over to my site and download the p51 http://www.tacticalblunder.com/~trenchfeet/ and also go to Brattys and get his corsairs. Tho they are ww2 planes i think the config files cover everything about how a plane should be set up. (- the moden weapons systems) It will also show you how to add custom sounds and animations. Also the custom gear scripts are there if you haven't done that yet. Bratty also developed the wheel anim scripts im sure if you ask him nicely he will let you use them, if you want to good luck nice plane! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SILESIAN 0 Posted December 21, 2003 I hope the Russian Air Force adopt more for the Platypus, seeing that as well as a maritime strike aircraft, it is a ground aircraft, and that blue just doesn't really work for that role Ask the Russians why they use that blue/green camo schemes in ground attack versions.

BlackAce 0 Posted December 22, 2003 Cockpit work has been finished. I will just add a control stick but before I have to align it to pilots hand and also seats have to be textured, anyways here are the pictures, www.geocities.com/blackacelead/Su30_Detail_1 www.geocities.com/blackacelead/Su30_Detail_2 nothing great, but I think it is quite okay for now...
