F-4 Phantom

It will my friend… It will… just trying to findout the way to make the slats. I will see i have an idea all i want is to test it if it is possible.
What is the problem with slats?
-
The model i have is the late version or “the slatted” after block 41 i think. EJ KAI is unslatted. Meaning it haves leading edge flaps not slats like C/D had. It will take time to figure out how to reconstrut them.the inner ones are easy. The outter are the difficult but i guess as always i will find it… lol. Oh and by the way. The Aim-9 rails will eventually come off. In A-G weapon loadouts there is a problem. For example if yu have a pair of bombs or Mavericks in the inner pylon the fins are touching the rails. and when you have aim-9’s also there is more complicated Sorry for that but its the sad truth. All models will remain at 9 slots as the default ones. And its actually easier for those who doesnt know how to use very good the editor or f4browse cause the “dance” to edit the slots its not so easy and to some modded theaters sometimes f4browse witch was (for me at least) easier than the editor doesnt read the .fed file…

@Radium : I think i got it…. Still needs work… If you can and you have some good pictures of how the Lefs in KAI are(Meaning they have as C/D double inboard LEFs or Single?) can you send me so i can get the way they work.
And i need to fill some gaps

I am not sure I understood what you meant with LEF…
Does it help?
Cheers,

Yes. I did also a research and all EJ Kai or not with the Lefs are like this so they have 1 inboard in each wing. LEF: leading edge flap. Hehehe. Ok as u saw the first step has done now i have to continue.

Thank you so much for your efforts!

Thank you so much for your efforts!
Thanks also. Need a lot of cuting/welding/scratch designing to look ok but im there. I will do it and beside that skin i can make 1-2 more… Cause the yellow line on the spine doesnt look too good and i dont know how this can be corrected. I will see though

Jan If you seeing this. How can i make the pilots visor to look a bit transparent? I did by lowering the opacity and adding a color but i dont like the result so much. Is there a catch ?

Use transparent poly’s (type 21) for the visor and a texture that has less than 100% opacity.

A second option is pType25 and playing with the color transparencies listed in the colors.htm file that comes with LodEditor.

Yes, but the options in color (mostly light gray and dark blue/green) and transparency level to choose from is much much less (112/255, 153/255 with 0 as 100% transparent and 255 as non transparent). For me poly 25 for colored glass is something I used in the Open Falcon days…

You guys wouldn’t happen to know how I can change the smoke-colored canopies in FF to clear. Tried changing w/ Batch Node Proc to pType 25 but I can’t figure-out what type to change from and nothing seems to change if I leave as default value -1 and change to 25…

Change the poly color of “glass” canopy (batch node proc). It’s probably color 753 at the moment. Change the color into something with a similar transparency (102) (see what colors you can use in the colors.htm file in the LE folder).

Ill try that. Any good walkaround page for the F-4 to make the stencils? I found a page in Cybermodelers site but most of the aircraft have the minimum sets or not at all. Therefore i need it just for reference as i allready ordered the “AUP under the skin” Book so probably i will see most of the stencils most of the greek Phantoms cover the 100% of the stencil data of a phantom

Use photo’s… These sites have a lot of reference material.

This thread is turning into an epic resource in terms of editing and implementation of new models and textures into Falcon/BMS.
Thanks for all the contributions guys!!!

Well i have to ask for things i dont know right? I thank all the people that are helping me and i promise that i will reward them with a good model.

Absolutely man, in addition you’re creating a great reference for people who will have to deal with these issues in the future. One of them, hopefully, being me with that dusty Turkey.

The project isnt dead… I just work on the new skin for Ikaros and also some details for the AUP. In the Ikaros theater will be a high poly model of the Aup and the Terminator so cause of the high detailed model i have to make a good skin. Jan thanks for the references but didnt find too many stancils that i could use for the greek Phantoms therefore for other liveries i will use them All stencils in the Aup is hand made besides the rescue signs and the ejection seat triangles.
Still working on the skin so many areas arent skinned yet
By the way i would like to say Thanks to Eagle Aviation and their phantastic (hehehehe) publication of the Phantom under the skin book. Great reference and very detailed -
