[RedStorm 0]

I don't think Satchel's around anymore *sigh*, that Apache skin was looking very promising

[The Jub-Jub Bird 1]

I can't get over how good those skins are...

....what do you mean Satchel is no longer around? Where is he?

...I want those skins....oh and is that the new island by OFP internals?

Hey, he didn't just do the chopper exterior either...he did the interior, the pilot, the XMS, the lot.

Where did you get that picture?

Such hi-res textures take a toll on the FPS. Since I always play with "setviewdistance 1200", I can imagine such super detailed textures would definitely have a price to pay for them.

[Mike_Beil 0]

Those are fekkin' amazing. Satchel, Come back!

[USSoldier11B 0]

Yes we want!!! You just had to show them off....you tease.

Question, how would i go about retexturing something?

i know its been asked before, about a hundred times but i dont get a lot of time to sit down and read the forums very often.

[BLARG_ATTACK! 0]

ok this is the plan... timmy find out were he lives.... once we do, spiderman6999 you get a m60 and cover us by the neighbors roof then i want 2 man entry teams on the front and backdoor Mike_Beil, advocatexxx, USSoldier11B, and The Jub-Jub Bird go in with shotguns and RedStorm cover the windows with a sniperriffle. I will go in by the chimmeny M|N|0N bring butter and greese just incase my fat ass gets stuck. shoot to kill and get the skin and whatever secret skins/ sound packs he is working on. Then i will get my mommy to be are get away driver. sound good?

oh thats just GREAT!!!!! i get teh bum boy job!!! i get tobe butter boy!!!! / me hopes he dont get stuck ... tho if he does i will just leave him there!

[Satchel 0]

LMAO! BLARG, that would be one pukka plan, you´ve just forgot to disable my car and cut telephone and power lines to my house, especially as i live in a region (close to a forest) where nobody would hear me scream..... on the other hand my barracks is just around 1,5km located from my house, if i´m fast enough and get unnoticed by your entry team out of the house, i may reach it, only problem would be that i cannot run very fast with my computer under the arm .

Now seriously, i havn´t found a way yet to get custom Nightvision goggles to work as addons in Flashpoint (to my best knowledge nobody has yet...), which is bad, as i have high quality original PNVS5 textures, as well as improved visuals when you would see through them.

I really would like to get them into the addon, then it would be 100% complete and i would be 100% satisfied.

In the other thread i wrote that the addon is tweaked currently for realism, means among other points that 1 Hellfire kills every vehicle you encounter in Flashpoint (except LST i guess). Note that a kill must not necessary result in immediate explosion, but even an M1 will be this damaged after a single hit, that it´s virtually inoperable.

I assume most people have addons that keep Flashpoints concept of gamebalance, the AH-64A i did will for sure greatly unbalance gameplay...

So should i keep the "realistic" values for release or change them instead for gamebalance? Personally it doesn´t matter for me (i want everthing as realistic as possible) as i´m not playing Flashpoint online currently, but what about those people that do and use other addons...gameplay or realism?

Here are 2 new shots btw:

<span style='font-size:15pt;line-height:100%'>Front View</span>

LOL.

hey Blarg I think you may have forgotten some explosives. Cant do something like that without explosions.

Great job by the way satchel

[Satchel 0]

It´s basically ready regarding texturing.

I´ll check back tomorrow afternoon for what you guys want, gamebalance or a more realistic weapon damage potential.

We have 0255 a.m. over here, i´m kinda tired and need to get some sleep now, had been on the comp nonstop for nearly 5 hours now.:)

Hey Satchel,

Maybe you would consider releasing both versions?

I don't play much anymore either but it's hard for me to imagine many situations where levels would benefit from an especially potent apache. Even so I'm sure it would have it's applications. So I guess my vote is for both versions, and if that's too much hassle then I vote for a balanced version. Considering the night vision. It sounds like it might still be a while off, so I would suggest releasing it for now and moving on to something else. Then when someone finally cracks the night vision you can go back and update it to take advantage. Just my two cents.

[JOEHADENUF~MOH~ 0]

looks great man!, truly a work of art. I’m just wondering,

I heard somewhere that Resistance is going to use the graphics engine

to it’s fullest(also in the area of textures.) Do you think it will have any new textures

to the degree of yours?

P.S, I am also a little foggy on how to retexture my own addons...

I’m not going to ask for much, seeing that your a busy man, but could you

point out any recommended or required soft where, that is needed to do so?

I would appreciate it

omfg stachel im sorry dude i didnt mean it, it was just a joke man pppllllzzz forgive me man i gott have that skin!!!!!!!! ppppllllzzzz ill be your b*tch for like 4 months pppzplZLLL!@!Z!Z!!!

[Mike_Beil 0]

Oh, That was mean. Tempt us more will ya

[Rage_Frost 0]

well for online play I would have to say gamebalance.

But what the hell man its your addon it look Golden "Sweet"!!!!

I don't care lol. Either way.

P.S. do you have other addons for download and if so where can we find these works of art.

[Garritos 0]

Go for the real one!!!! this is not a flight simulator, I dont see why the apache shouldnt be real world specs. Like Wright said "it's hard for me to imagine many situations where levels would benefit from an especially potent apache." I can see where this would unbalance multi-play but do you really play east vs west TDM with choppers?? the best solution would be release both, but if only one, release the real one.

PS what happened to the yellow-tinted glass??
