forget adding new planes for a bit, update current ones.

I think what Greebo says is true about new models generating more interest, and maybe the best compromise is to create a new model variant when updating the old skin/cockpit art - e.g., release the P-40N when updating the '40B and '40E; the Ki.100 when the Ki.61 is updated (Ki.100 benig a re-engined version of the Ki.61); the Yak-3 when updating the Yak series.

update the KI67

but see i thin kyou guys should be focusing on the updated textures for the old war horses. i myself fly Ki-67s and i would love to see and updated Ki-67 texture res.

update the KI67

I remember when the Ki-67 was added, i thought it was a pretty decent model, and it's got about 5 separate bitmaps for the interior, no reason why it shouldn't look bloody good inside. I've not done much by way of IJA skins or interiors but could have a go, or there might be other skinners who would. Would a reskin help?

right now i dont wanna see new aircraft or new ships or GVs, i wanna see an overhaul of the aircraft that need updated textures,

If it's textures you want, then i guess i'm offering to do that, or you could ask in the custom skins forum and might get someone with more experience to do it. Do you have a particular Ki-67 in mind?

omg what i mean is do like what they did to the A6M5b, update it. i want HTC to update all the older aircraft. not new skins not new aircraft but updated aircraft.

ahh, you want new 3d models, not textures.

Well, i guess that is a little less work for HTC than adding new aircraft, cos it doesn't need a new flight model, etc. However, for the person doing the 3D modelling it's pretty much the same amount of work whether they're updating an old aircraft or making an entirely new one. Therefore I can see why it's more appealing all round to add new aircraft. The whines seem to be a little louder for that as well.

(In the meantime, reskinning could make a big difference to some of the ugly ducklings, and it is something the community can do.)

The plane that needs the most updating is the B26....Its so ugly but its such a good bomber. A pretty bomber makes it even better

Easy Tyrannis, its day one for the B-29, it will have bugs.  Should have been here for the graphics change and the Beta testing of the graphics.  That was a hoot, but HTC worked very hard and everything was ironed out quickly.

So sit back and relax.

Tyrannis got PNG'd?
