Jankees; you are truly a master.

I agree...I was flying this lovely aircraft last night in Jankees' ZD-L "Soebang" paint, and I took some time while in cruise (9000 ft, mixture weak, 2200 rpm, radiator temp well below critical, I'm relieved to say...) to take an outside look at his paint. The little details are fantastic -- lube streaks, paint chips, wear on the leading edges of the airframe -- just perfect.

Thanks for the work on our behalf! :salute:
 
What is a painting save size of the rule?

32bit? or 24bit? DXt3 or DXt5 etc.

Please help me!

Thank you!

no problem.

And most of the honours go to Martin Catney, who made the textures in the first place, and the paintkit too. Me, I just add the letters, noseart etc, most of it is Martin's work, really.
 
A2A Spit repaint save problem

Hi SADT,

Such was not yet!
This bird will catch me!
I need help!
The finished painting what format to save?
Step to step
Photoshop:
-32bit or 24bit?
DXTbmp:
-DXT3 or DXT5?
Crazy already!

Thank you!

Lovely, lovely plane. I feel as though I'm missing out though, not as much fun when everything does what it should be doing!

I agree with this. Once all of the systems are sorted out, it's a wondeful flightsimulation with nothing else to do. Meaning that it was fairly easy to master as flight sims go and there is nothing to shoot down! Guess I'll try some crosswinds.

Zsolt, in general I always save DDS format textures is DDS DTX5 format. I don't have this model (yet?), but I assume the textures are in DDS format.
Non-DDS extended textures I always save in DTX3 format as DTX5 gave me problems.

In general 32 bits textures will require a powerful PC, 32 bits in combination with 2048x2048 will require an extreme powerful PC.

I hope this answers your question,
Huub

Sir,<o:p></o:p>

It has been brought to our attention that you have been personally responsible for the wrecking of Rolls Royce Merlin III engines at a rate that is approaching our national output per day.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
We must therefore ask you to attend our location soonest in order that we may understand your flying practises. This is so that we may adapt the Merlin III engine and make it more suited to operational service.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>

We strongly recommend that you attend this factory via the public service transport system as we feel we will not have enough engines in our stores to warrant flying the distance between our locations.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>

Your faithfully<o:p></o:p>

SEEMS TO ME ,ONCE THE SYSTEMS ARE PRETTY MUCH FIGURED OUT,WHICH AIN'T GOING TO HAPPEN IN A DAY FOR ANYBODY THEN IT'S TIME TO DO MANY HOURS OF GOOD FLYING.
 
I know I gotta quit eating mexican before I go flying. Wooohooo. Last couple of flights I fogged the glass up so bad I couldnt see a thing. Ahhh the smell of 100 octane and burritoes.

Lewis, your products are exceptional and I own a bunch of them. This one has some very nice special effects, but I did not find it particularly challenging as a flying simulation. Maybe some kind of in-flight emergency is needed, or a mission? Maybe it's because it's a famous combat plane in a non-combat simulator? Right now I'd rank your Accusim B-17 and B-377 as the best so far. They seem fussier, with more engine and flight management required at the controls.
