• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

I wonder!

I was just trying to impart a bit of "constructive" instructional guidance... or criticism if you will...
Personally... I have pretty thick skin and am quite sure about what I know and don't know.... almost 30 years
of experience in the field of anesthesia - including working under warfare conditions in Viet Nam - taught me
that... especially... not to get "uptight" about criticism... just strive to do the my very best...

Some folk are very free with the latter.. but are hard-put to take it... the original representation did look like a
a corrugated zinc roof... no way out of that... doped fabric might leave a very shallow trough... but is essentially
smooth... even with the tape over the ribs - otherwise the frigging flying machine just does not fly...
And since I know of a way to correct it... I thought it might me appreciated to let other folks learn it...

I can always learn from someone else's comments (no matter how negatively they impact my actions)

One minor detail....

The good professor's striated aluminum skins are very, very adept to flying... the representation of the fabric wing that was the
subject under discussion is quite something else... those troughs look quite deep and wide... (thereby the reference to a
corrugated zinc roof... that would create eddy currents in airflow) whereas the striated aluminum skin like the Tante (auntie) are much closer together....
I am afraid there is a bit of mixing apples and oranges here.... no offense taken.... or given for that matter

I think it was bad lighting. Too much shadowing of the wrong areas. The roundle is the worst as it really gives the look of being wavy.

Though do be careful adding the glare. On the AC it can give the wrong look as well. There shouldn't be any shine on the Models Material so it could come off as a white spot. I don't know as I haven't seen it on it yet.

Hey CK,

Did it use it on all of the surfaces as the screenshot shows.

Is up!

I uploaded the Package: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...9564&catid=150
I have endeavored to keep as faithful as possible, aspects of this original work, during the conversion to CFS2.
I have tried adding levels of detail "LOD" without success due to the complexity of these models.
I want to publicly thank to Manuelle Villa, for your confidence in who subscribes to the task of conversion.
Thanks to Bertrand Pillot (beepee) for the conversion of the panels and gauges. He did a great job and this perhaps the most watched during the simulation.
Thanks to John Fortin (Bloodhawk) for convert the weapons for the Z506 and Z1007 series and his try add lods with me.
Thanks to M.Shupe , “Hairyspin” and “Allen” for supported me in the design forum. SIM-OUTHOUSE.COM
I worked on the conversion of visual models, converting textures, air, aircraft, dp and and other details in sound.
Installation: It is important that you copy and paste the textures files into the "comon files..." folder in all “texture.xx folders.
Copy and paste the files from the "gauges" folder in the same folder of CFS2 Gauges.
Files in weapons folder bring their own installation instructions.
Use the spoiler key to open the bombs bays.
Use the tailhook key to move the gunners.

About my work , no perfect, I did my best with the time and resources that I had.
Please enjoy the work and give the credit to M.Shupe and M.Villa
If there is something to be corrected (Mauelle and partners of this conversion) , i´ll edit and modify the package, for that is thread, but I dont want to delay the upload any more.

Thanks again.
Mario M. Misson
 
For Bloodhawk

Most of the plane skin was corrugated. Only the leading edges of the flying surfaces and a few other areas like around the windscreen used regular smooth aluminum sheeting. The corrugations were for added strength as it gave additional resistance to flexing (front to rear).
