    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

It looks better and better, congratulations !! :jump:
The only things I don't like are the canopy and the engine intakes.
The canopy looks like there's not reflection at all, FS98 style. But you said already it looked better ingame than in the screenshots, so I will wait until I see the final version.
The engine intakes are too clear. They need a bit of shadowing, like ambiant occlusion.
 
I have since altered the intake colour, so that will make a difference. As for the glass, I am playing with the settings to see if i can get more shine on it.
 
Hi,

Looking at this project with great interest. My last fling with an FS Tonka was the one of Lago's so it has been a while.
Are you able to bake in some shading on the textures? It always enhances the overall 3D feel and realism. A layer as such would be great for a repaint kit as well.

Thanks
 
all the textures are currently layered PSD's so a paintkit will be available for people to add extra dirt
 
I wasn't talking about dirt, I was talking about "baked in shading" rendered in the 3D program, but never mind.

Thanks
 
OMFG!!!!

If this is to be payware then:

There are some major probs with the Cockpit and Canopy that need looking at.

If it's freeware and accessable then:

By eck! Nice one and thank you very much!
 
you obviously have not read the tread, it is FREEWARE as always from us. we have put months into this build, and it will be released for free, so you will get what you get. But for free you are getting a payware product
