Black Cats in the Movies

Hi,
Thought you might find this interesting - USN film about the Black Cats.

It plays very jerkily on my setup - hopefully you all have better luck.

Claws for the Cat

Hi,
Thanks to the Cap'n for releasing the source code along with his new Catalina.

I decided to add some claws to the Black Cat. Here is a model with 4 50 mm machine guns in the nose and that new fangled RADAR to help find those Japanese freighters in the dark.

It is the first thing that I have ever actually managed to make in FSDS (that looks like something) so I am feeling a little proud of myself (even tho Stiz and the Cap'n did 99.999% of the work).

No DP yet but if people are interested I will upload the mdl (and source). Be warned it isn't multi res - so hunt alone!

A couple of shots. Getting ready at dusk and then heading out on the prowl.
Gavin

I'm rather surprised that no one has made an attempt to multi-res the source files yet.

 

[kelticheart]

A good day to everybody!

First of all, a big

THANK YOU !!!

to Crashaz, Stiz and the VN team for this splendid bird!!!

I am sorry I continue to be quite absent from this forum, since I am working heavy mornings in school getting up everyday at 6 a.m. and back past 2 p.m. then after a quick meal, I work on me house.

I did not expect the many troubles I discovered during the renovation and the difficoulty in founding people capable of doing a good job like floor ceramic tiles laying. But the work is moving on, if not at the pace I would like it.

Just to let you know me heart is still here at SOH, I found the time to do alternative prop textures for this beautiful PBY, as you can see from the attached screenies...:d

I also did a GG-style gauge-controlled exhaust effect before remembering that only one effect can be handled by GG gauges.

I figured it's better having the bowspray effect than flames out of the exhaust pipes, at least that's how I installed mine. Oh, well...

At any rate, I will include the effect in my upload together with dp entries for a continous exhaust effect, so that everyone will have several effect choices.

I am expecting to upload the files by this weekend.

Cheers!
