ziiip 1 Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) Thanks dudes, that long polycount wiki article should be very useful. But I am still going to need to model those in order to create a normal map for the LP model, right? Btw I am at 9K polycount and theres not a lot to do left, so I could just keep these for this one, right? Edited April 9, 2011 by ziiip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PuFu 4600 Posted April 9, 2011 Thanks dudes, that long polycount wiki article should be very useful. glad you find it useful But I am still going to need to model those in order to create a normal map for the LP model, right? yes, but as floaters! Btw I am at 9K polycount and theres not a lot to do left, so I could just keep these for this one, right? yeah, but why would you? Add geometry around the parts that are gonna be visible. The pad is not in the list ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ziiip 1 Posted April 9, 2011 Thanka Pufu, I dont know how to do normal maps at all (article to be read) but that technique already look elegant. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slatts 1978 Posted April 17, 2011 just wondering is it possible for a harrier to carry a 4x rack of hellfires like that on the ah-1z? i know they can carry a rack of brimstones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rksl-rock 1301 Posted April 17, 2011 just wonderingis it possible for a harrier to carry a 4x rack of hellfires like that on the ah-1z? i know they can carry a rack of brimstones In the real world no. The racks are not designed for fast jets and are high drag. And the missile's software isn't fixed wing friendly. Hence the development of the Brimstone which - I am told but have been unable to verify - can be fired up to Mach 0.9. Something about targeting "lag" in layman's terms. Understandably there isn't much real/practical info available publically. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slatts 1978 Posted April 17, 2011 (edited) so brimstones are a better choice :) cheers rock EDIT: also anyone know the name of this pattern, also wondered who used it http://pcmedia.ign.com/pc/image/article/690/690626/battlefield-2-euro-force-20060222100028202_640w.jpg Edited April 17, 2011 by Slatts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CameronMcDonald 146 Posted April 24, 2011 Oh hell no, that's not DPCU. Greener, darker splotches, much smaller pattern size, more bunnies. If anything, I'd be searching for "shoddy textures." It looks like a terrible version of 3 colour desert, or one of those random European camos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max power 21 Posted April 24, 2011 Since it's 3d art you can't be guaranteed that it's an actual camouflage swatch. The pattern looks very large regardless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sabre 244 Posted April 25, 2011 Like da12th said it's a mixture of Norwegian camouflages. Or atleast it'll be the closest thing to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jester_Darrak 10 Posted June 7, 2011 I am looking for the specific airfoil of the C-160 Transall transport plane. Would be great if anyone knows it or can find it. Please send a PM if you (think you) found/got it. Regards, Jester Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

max power 21 Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) Wrong plane Max. He wanted the C160 Transall LOL. Apparently I have to work on my reading comprehension skills. Thanks, Rock. edit: Here's another aerofoil reference. Unfortunately, the Transall isn't on there. It does have quite a few other aircraft, though. So many that I was quite surprised the Transall wasn't listed. http://www.ae.illinois.edu/m-selig/ads/aircraft.html Edited June 7, 2011 by Max Power Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
