Cera Bell 412EP

So... you fix old paints by moving upper section in bell_ext_2_T.dds 38pixels to the right. But they didn't bother updating their bump maps to correspond new diffuse maps, so you'll get misaligned bumps:sleep:.


Oh no - really? Think I might have to go back to version 1
 
I've just uploaded a fix patch for my Cessna Corporation repaint including the correct bump and spec maps to FlightSim and HoverControl. Should be online soon.

Gentleman i need a little help - what is the difference between the old and the new bell_ext_2_T.dds ? OK, it is moved 38 Pixels to the right but what is the
sense for it - in my opinion it looks much better at the old version - with the new one, you have a few rivets and bolts in the "nowhere" (1) and others been missed (2).

At the moment i did not rework my textures and stay with the older model-file installed.

These two posts should explain why the model had to be remapped:

EDIT: I see your point re (1). There are even more issues that were not addressed at all (e.g. rpm gauges, vc lights, etc.). Seems like they concentrated on FDE and rushed the rest for no good reason. Still, this is hands down the best payware helicopter in the market.
 
Ahh - many thanks Kavehpd for pointing me to that. But as i say above, in my humble opinion the "older" look better.
 
I agree total with you Kavephd - indeed, the best Payware Helicopter - hope they sort out the rest (think they will do :icon_lol:), in the meantime i can live very good with the old model and the old paints that you and all the other painters have done.
After finishing my Air Greenland Repaint for the ND AS332-L2 i could`nt resist and start one for the Bell 412 - still W.I.P ........ . As you can see at the Pic below - she handles like a dream - hovering over the water is very easy with the new FDE.

Can anyone help in my effort to get a green tint for the eyebrow windows on this awesome bird?
 
Hello atomichead - unfortunately it seems not be possible to change the color of the eyebrow windows - all windows use the same texture. Maybe a future update
make this possible (if CeraSim has plan one).
