Military AI Works

I haven't forgotten.

These pics are using models that don't contain the latest texture fixes, but give you a good idea.

An "E" and "D", I like the E's, one color .

Fantastic!
May we ask Nick to mount reflective canopies as well?

Here's a 'C' thats I've been trying to get right for a long time now.

Not finished but the hard part is done.

Wow Kev I bow to your brilliance mate, fabulous.

Rip, yes I will try and do the reflective canopy but I need to wait till the weekend and have a play, I'll have to liase with Kev about the texture placing too. But Im up for that. And Kev I'll have a complete model for you by the weekend, with all the mods for textures.

Nick

OK an update here on this one. Pending a test by Mike on the FDE I will be releasing the C/D models on the ftp share site sometime this weekend (probably saturday) Once I have got the texture files from Kev from my hotmail account.

Nick

OK Gents, here we go. The NBAI F-15 C/D model has been posted onto the FTP sharing directory for those who want to go ahead and use it to start making their packages. This is going to be roughly 2 weeks ahead of the main release, as I wont be able to release it until I get back from Germany mid-June. There is a paintkit in there from Kevin, so again, as with the F-22 Im not going to be able to do repaints, but we are very happy for anyone to do their own. Indeed if you look in the C model there is already a Lakenheath paint in there by Ian McCartney. The model also now features the reflective canopy by Kev.
So have fun and hope it meets everyones expectations.

Where's the ftp directory or is that for the MAIW guys only?

yes, that site is for staff and contributors only, it won't be long packages are already in progress using the new Raptors and Eagles

Expect an updated C/D paintkit and the E sometime today.
Will post on the share site.

Weapons texture for the E not yet complete.

HOLD THAT - Just checked the new models, theres something screwy with the rear end again.
Will have to get pics and email them to Nick.

That's what I figured, no worries, look forward to seeing the model and whatever packages you guys are working on, I know they'll be fantastic as always!

VERY nice looking model!! I hope I can use this plane in Dan Bourque's ANG packages. I never put in the F-15's that came with those packages cause it really slowed down my framerates.

Guys,

Please note, the Eagle "D" doesnt have the "refl_texture.bmp" texture in the texture folder.

It needs it if the reflective canopy is going to work. Please copy the texture from the C texture folder and put it in the D texture folder.

Sorry for the oversight.

Nick

Nick, are you doing an A and B model? I've found out that 133 Sqn IDF is made up of all versions except the 'I' variant.

John

He is doing an A/B model as stated in the readme!

Old IT habit, never read the manual

John

RTFM we call it in IT...

Barry

I used to say that to my customers, I also told them to make back ups regularly. Something else I don't do either.

John

One thing that has cropped up in a PM to me recently guys is that the USAF Fire Extinguishers Yellow and not Red.

The colour of the fire extinguisher on the F-15 model can be changed. There is a small block of colour on the paintkit which is where the extinguisher gets its colour. I did this because the extinguishers I saw while at Nellis were not only Yellow, but some were red.

Hope this helps.

Nick

I don't know if the Eagle was to be released yet to general public, but I downloaded them already, and I can say that it's awsome. Great work Nick. I'm busting my mind in how many ways it can be used to populate the skies.
Cheers, Lewis:)

I wonder what colour the IDF ones are? I guess red but they may be camo green seeing as they are in military hot-spot (so to speak). Anyone got any photos of an IDF line up?
