Thinking of the improvements on the Goose, Jens B. Kristensen's flying boats would be great subjects for the same treatment. Especially the ones that connected Oz with Europe would fit in nicely with the magnificent FTX stuff!

A complete reworking I hope. It would be pointless to make the exterior look fantastic without doing the VC as well. What they did to the Mooney was breathtaking so hopefully this will be along the same lines.

What they did to the Mooney..? I must have missed that. If it looks half as good as the screenshots of the Goose here, it'll be fantastic, so where do I get the overhauled Mooney? I went to the downloads section of the OzX site, but have yet to find it.

The work on the Grumman looks amazing!
 
Nice to have some high res textures for the Goose, good work guys! I'm more excited about the new bumpmapping than anything else.
 
Good evening Captains,

I am humbled by such a positive reaction to our project and given Pam's enthusiastic intro I hope the final product lives up to our expectations.

Steve (Gizmo)'s done a top shelf job :applause:and Pam... well you all know the caliber for Pam's work. :medals: There is still quite a bit more work to be done and so its probably going to be a couple more weeks I suppose before this project see's the light of day.

If your interested in furhter updates, please come and visit us over at Aussiex.

Cheers

EDIT: In response to some of the comments regarding the VC, I thought I would post some WIP shots for the panels I am working on.

No.. Thats their artwork. See what i meant when i said it was insane??? ( and they think i'm good. Oy Gevalt )
Notice that second hole on the co-pilots side?? that's some of butch's magic. It doesnt exist in the model..
 
Could you guys consider killing the 3d knobs on the radios? I really REALLY want to put the RXP GNS430 and some other gauges in there but the knobs are stopping me. I'm sure others would like this as well.

Looks wonderful! :medals:
 
Hey all

Thanks for the kind words they do help drive us along ;)

Ive no idea whats on the chopping block after this i dont think anyone has thought that far ;)

As the goose has a set of _night textures i thought id spend sometime baking out some illuminations for them,as you'll see there not perfect (some shadows get messed up or mirror due to the way the UV space is mapped/mirrored) and this is just a quick test pic but i think its worth spending sometime tweaking up i'll try and get somemore pic up once i make more progress

They can't fix the 3d knobs, this is just a texture job. The model isn't editable, and Microsoft only included the DC-3 model in the SDK. But I agree, looks absolutely fantastic.

I was under the assumption all the default models were part of the SDK. Hehe... oh well. I guess I'll keep using my popup 430.
