Hi, yes you are right, its a BAC Strikemaster widely used by the air forces of Botswana, Ecuador, Kenya, Kuwait, New Zealand, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Yemen and Sudan, and saw combat in Ecuador, Oman and South Yemen during its service life. It remains a mystery who sold it to Tonal...

Hi, the ship is an US ADMIRABLE CLASS minesweeper, built in the last days of ww2. Over thirty of these minesweepers were leased to Russia toward the end of World War Two and were never returned. (some of them were later sold to Tonal) Others saw action during Korea war, later some were sold to South Vietnam and at the last days of the vietnam war they were driven to Indonesia where they might be still in service as Patrol boats. Few of this class were sold for civil use, too. So this class can be used from all sides.

You scored three out of eight, there is no addon in the moment that is UV-mapped.

Hi, the overall idea for a campaign is that Tonali, the smaller island will be occupied (liberated) by rebell forces. There are rumors and / or hints, that the rebell force is supported by other countries. So Tonal government will declare a Maritime Exclusion Zone, to stop transports to Tonali. This will be intended as a weakening move against rebell supply and reinforcement positions from Africa to Tonali. The sub is not a nuke, it's a ex-german 206A class with a total length of 48.6m, a crew of 23 men and can operate in shallow water until 20m.

Yes, of course. And I have contacted him and hope for some input. On the other hand, this are addons I want to have for my tonal missions and some of them like Dragonfly, Do-28 Skyservant, Twin-Otter, Strikemaster, U-boat 206A class, and Admirable class were never mentioned anywhere in this forum that someone has started or finished them. This doesn,t belong to the Antonov An-2 and Fellow friendship.

Assuming that you neither have MAX or any other high end program and have already modelled the addon in O2, this is a possibility to get UV mapped textures on the addon. First we use O2 to save the basic mesh without any selections, names, textures in a new p3d. The we can use p3d2obj (on OFP info) to convert this in an obj file. On http://www.uvmapper.com/downloads.html is a small program called "UVMapper Classic for Windows" with this program we can generate an UV Map and safe both, the new obj and the uv texture as bmp (we can safe it as 1024x1024 for example) Now we can paint whatever we want on the UV texture with for example GIMP and save it as jpg and convert it with Texview to *.pac / *.Paa With for example 3D Exploration we can convert the Obj into an 3ds. Then we need anim8or to create a dummy 3ds Kdata and save it again as 3ds. Finally we can open O2 again and import the 3ds back to p3d, now UV mapped. If anyone knows an easier way or better UV mapping tool, please feel free to let me know Hope this helps.............................................................

Which addons and/or Mods should be finished first?
Shinkansen posted a topic in ADDONS & MODS: DISCUSSION
From time to time (and sometimes daily) I got requests to finish either ww1 or pacific war mod or pirates mod or some other addons. ww1 and pacific war mod and pirates mod have their own sides. Tonal supplements will be more modern airplanes like Antonov an-2 colt, Dragonfly, Strikemaster, Twin Otter and some ships that I started some time ago. -
Maybe some other useful addons are the - Stuka pack (wwiiec Filefront) - Fieseler Storch (wwiiec Filefront) - Henschel HS-123 Bratty Pacific division @ AtStWalker haven't seen for months that the Fallschirmjäger are available for download. Very nice package, I especially like the extra stuff included.

Which addons and/or Mods should be finished first?
Shinkansen replied to Shinkansen's topic in ADDONS & MODS: DISCUSSION
A hard to answer question, but if you want, you can work on the ww1 stuff, too -
Yeap, the idea of this topic is that you want to have UV mapped addons without access to any programs that cost money. Thanks for the hints for - blender - LithUnwrap As far as I have seen LithUnwrap has a lot of possibilities to create UV maps. But i ned more time playing around with this tool. The main difference between wings3d and uvmapper is that in wings3d the "brainstorming" must be done while selecting the faces to unfold them, while for UVMapper the "brainstorming" is what faces should be copied to the p3d file at the beginning.
-
yes, maybe, but if you want good textures, you need an excellent uvmapping. Absolutly no discussion about that and your addons clearly proofe this.

I would prefer the arms on the figure on the left. But its only me

Which addons and/or Mods should be finished first?
Shinkansen replied to Shinkansen's topic in ADDONS & MODS: DISCUSSION
First of all I want to thank everyone who voted in this poll. The result is rather clear. The first thing that should be finished will be a small supplement for Tonal containing some smaller ships and airplanes that I have started long ago for bushfire and other mods. I will open soon a new topic for this. After this ww1 somme and pirates mod will be on the list. Nothing simply meant doing nothing more in OFP until i will get ArmA somewhere in the next few years ( - without turning this into an ArmA discussion, but the banana video is showing nothing I want to spend more then 15 Euro for - ) Â Interesting to me there is no strong interest in a pacific war mod, thats okay pacific would be the biggest challenge. -
Hi, this is a good idea, but if you want to use paratroopers I would suggest something like normandy or battle of the bulge, for this most addons already exists and a normandy map or generic winter map can be used. Bridges and paratroopers can sometimes be a real pain in OFP. I think there were "Fallschirmjäger" in the INV44 demo
-
Okay I got the basic steps in wings3d to get an UV map. Maybe wings3d can produce better UV maps, but the other program I mentioned above is an easy "click and go" to create the map. @blackjack[VS] Thanks for the hint, I will try Blender, too.
-
you can use wings 3d (a free program with an excellent uvmapping tool) and after anim8tor to import the 3ds file in o2. p3d to obj (with p3d2ob) Â Hi, yes I have downloaded wings3d, too. But I got a little bit confused, what I have to do with the program. I have loaded the obj into wings3d and started the UV Editor Window. And what have I to do then? I looked into the tutorial and got confused, too
-
Hi, this model is really excellent! Very good work
-
Here are some unfinished files, that I made long ago and stopped somewhere in the middle. These Addons should work more or less in OFP but you shouldn't look on the details. In the moment I have not the programs necessary to finish the textures. If you like them and want to help me finish them, please feel free to contact me.

Addon on request, no cockpit http://rapidshare.de/files/33762999/mid_kmt.pbo.html
-
yes
-
yes
-
I have no idea about cockpit and interiors for this plane, but everything else can be finished... But the other An-2 you showed pictures is looking really good, any chance to contact someone who made that addon?
-
where can I download this pack?
-
Long ago I started this and some other stuff for Bushfire mod, never finished...
