F/A 18C HORNET FULL EDITION (Photoreal Cockpit & Photoreal Skin)

Awesome work

Hi,
Great work. Feels so realistic to fly next to a Hornet now in close formation. Awesome.
I know very little of the F-18, so I might be mistaken here, but I noticed 3 odd things about the skin. Maybe it’s correct, maybe it isn’t. Or maybe it’s wrong in BMS and has nothing to do with your skins, so I apologize beforehand
1. Top left I can see through the jet
2. I have either no canopy or the crew chief did one hell of a job to make it so clean and non reflecting
3. I thought those side panels closed or toughed the fuselage on the bottom part, but now I see a gap.
4. (no screenshot), the centerline fuel tank, the rear part floats in the air, I assume it should be touching the bottom part of the fuselage where it’s attached?Hi Focaldesign
I have no idea about transparent canopy. My canopy looks like the picture below.
I tried to show the body and engine connection detail images below.
There is no problem in joining the centerline fuel tank with the body. I think you mean the little piece seen in the image below.
Best regards.

Thx for the reply.
Canopy, no idea what I’m doing wrong.
Nr 2 & 3 ok, as I thought I don’t know much about the Hornet
Nr 4. Yes that’s what I mean. Is that back part supposed to be attached to the fuselage or not? -

ok thx for verifying.
Than I’ll try figure out what’s wrong with the canopy. -
not sure what happened but I do not see any changes. Is there a specific campaign to use for this skin?

Skins cover all campaigns, Tactical Engagements, Dogfight and Instant Action in the base Korea theater.

found that I had to overwrite all the campaign files too…
C:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Add-On Balkans\Terrdata\objects\KoreaObj

Add on theater files …. not ‘campaign’ files. Yes, each add on theater usually needs to be updated with preferred skins, sounds, etc.

I have not had time to shoot video, but I found it on Youtube. Thank you so much

Great work on your photo real Hornet, your effort is really remarkable.

As always awsome work man.

Hey, cool for using my video here. Thanks
Great job on the cockpit and now the external skin. Love flying with your F18 cockpit.
And I will be switching to your photo real skin for sure. -
Nice vid!
Enjoying the new skins! Great work:) How do you change the hud colour to that in the video?

@ SaturnV
SaturnV, thank you so much. I look forward to the other videos.:D@ Redeye82
You can select the color you want on HUD by pressing the Shift + Ctrl + Alt + C key combination. -
Excellent work, B, I tip my Stinger coffee mug to you;). I’ve always been partial to the VFA-113 skin. Looking at your cockpit has me seriously considering going back to the Hornet cockpit (currently using Viper 'pit)

Shasta, were you succesful, via this method, in getting it working in Balkans? I’m thinking of installing the new U3 Balkans theater

Update: I’m happy to report both installed easily into the new Balkans Theater. BTW, I put the dds files in the KoreaObj_hires_ folder

Hi Burak ;)……thank you so much for this wonderful wonderful mod; for an end user like me it is so inspiring discovering this beautiful bird more and more with textures wrapped in like yours.
H o p e f u l l y this mod also gives an increase in motivation for all the BMS Cracks and Developers giving more attention for further improvements and developments in the F/A-18C Hornet.
Honestly spoken: The Hornet is the most challenging bird in the hangar of BMS actually (–> e.g. not only regarding Carrier landing but also enery management during dogfight , etc…). It’s the perfect endorsement for the F-16’s, not to mention about their same roots in the lightweight fighter program https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Fighter_program#/media/File:YF-16_and_YF-17_in_flight.jpg

Best regard to all of you, Udet

Strange, I’ve installed the skin to default KTO, all dds files and all, but I can only have it on my F/A-18 only if I click “change skin” button a few times in a loadout menu. The rest of Hornets get vanilla skin.
What can be the issue?
