Still the Falcon 20....

Fabulous, Riu! Love the NASA paint. Tan flightsuits look great!.

Inside textures look way better - can't wait as this great project gets even better. Updated model looks better too, Ti!

Just thrilled - thanks all!

Thanks for your reply, Rui. I just saw the same/equivalent file in the FSX section. Will try this when I get home tonight.
Thanks again for your contributions on this lovely little jet.

Are in close contact with Rotorhub. I am currently working on materials and textures to make the models more realistic.

Now reflections have been reworked without adding specular or bump textures.

Here is a first example of the G-FRAP original and current state. WIP.

Oh wow Thomas, what a difference! :jump:
 
Both textures (fuse and wings) now have an alpha to show the reflections of environtment. Using fresnel and globalenv textures. Than I changed materials of model parts. Now it is possible to control chrome and reflexion display only with the alpha channel. I compiled the models for FSXA, working both in FSX and P3D all versions.

I just changed all the HU-25 Guardian versions I did - there will be an update, too. And I changed models a bit. It all have e.g. textured gear cases.

It looks very nice TiAr:applause:. If you have gmax, you can have the source files to work with as well.

Best regards

Falcon 200

The Falcon 200 exterior is done. I am looking into som minor VC changes, using Mario Noriega's Collins EFD 85 gauges. Fantastic gauges, all in XML vector code. But it is too early to say.

Falcon 20 nose gear hatch

Manecas pointed out that forward nose gear hatch is a single panel. It is now fixed. I have also asked Mario Noriega for help on the flight model. If he have the time, he will do some magic on the engine tables and do some tweaking. His Mercure can be flown by the numbers!!! If we are lucky, we will get some input from a guy who fly Cargo Falcons for a living. Several talented people is improving the Falcon, to my great pleasure.:applause:

Falcon 20G

Martial FERON is looking into adapting his repaints to this model. The window size is not 100% correct due to smoothing issues, but perhaps I will release it anyways.
There is a guy in the observer window. Manecas have made nice flightsuits to Bjoerns pilot figures.

Oh, new models are looking great. But the single nose gear panel was only in very early models in use. The HU-25 have a different, but also single one.

Anyway, I finished my work on materials and reflections. Did a new Cobham repaint G-FRAP of 2018. Changed exterior model now with actual antennas, sensors and modernisized underwing pods a bit.

she looks beautifull! :jump: But again, she always did!;)
 
Well, from several photos it shows that indeed the nose gear door was one large piece, fitting into the back one that attaches to the nose gear itself. Im happy with this small fix Arild, it looks the part now!;)

Thomas, one silly question too;

since Arild is busy making other variants, and since you can do your magic and change things a bit, could you "make" me a Falcon with only 4 windows on each side for a Portuguese Air Force repaint?

Pleeeaaase?

The aircraft I mean had a big cargo door and windows, I dont need to have an opening cargo door, just four windows, and I will "paint" a cargo door instead!;)
the normal door can be left as in the other models.

but it would be closer to the original.
thank you again,
rui

This is great news Thomas :jump::jump::jump:
can I ask you, will the cockpit windows and cabin windows have this ability too?
can we change the reflection on these using the alpha layer too?
when done,can you share these features with me so I can try and update my repaints later?
looking forward to these thank you again,
rc
 
Manecas, the four windows external model is aready done - I only have to redo some antennas and sensors, so I will do it - pease send me an emal via private message.

And yes, windows material settings can be modified, via the textures/alpha, too.

Thomas
 
Rui, did the job. Basic reflections as show on screen. If you like it more or less, make the alpha darker or lighter.
