Title: new skins
Post by: Pooface on June 05, 2005, 06:05:49 AM
i think it is time we concentrated less on dora's, 51's and 38's

we have lots of skins for lots of planes, but only the defaults for others. its a bit of a shame really, things like lancs, spit1's, 14's, b26's, and loads more. could we all work together, and get some pictures for each other, and knock out some new skins for the outcasts? if we all work together, we should be able to do it fairly quickly, and revive some the dusty early war planes, sitting bored in the hangar. i wonder whether anyone else feels my pain :( :lol

how about it tho?

some of the planes  are left out because  there are too many problems  with the skin e mirroring,streatching and such like,some are left out because there  are  not  any different  skins  no major camo changes  just diferent  squadron numbers and letters.
 there  are  a few b26s  on the go soe will be in soon i hope but most of the rest there isnt  anything  sutable  to use  for  a skin.

  well thats  my thoughts

Pooface - The current old planes are getting remodelled, to see the difference look at the cockpits of the P38s (new model) compared to say the Spits (old model)
Once we get more of the old AH2 planes converted over, you'll see more. Old texture layouts are not compatible with the new model texture layouts.
It would help if HT would give us an idea in what order re-models were being done, not a timetable just the order.
Would hate to do a skin only to find out the plane was the next one to be remodelled.

kev dude, im not stoopid:lol

i find this really annoying, because to keep it a secret, which is admitedly quite exciting, hitech has us all thinking. maybe htc staff could put up a rough plan for remodels and the time frame, because at the rate we're going, its going to be years before the plane set is completely redone. THIS, is my only quarrel with HTC and their amazing game, the information:(

bit of a shame really. i do see what you mean though, if only we had a timetable for the remodels

Sorry Pooface, wasn't implying that, just didn't know if you knew about the 'new' models.

Timeframe wouldn't bother me, but the order in which they are being done would be really helpful.
