FYI
We have been granted full written permissions from Iris Simulations, to use/modify their A-7E model in order to make it bms-compatible. The final product will be included in later Ikaros theater versions as both a flyable plane and static feature, and as usual it will be also offered to bms devs in order to adopt this if required and acceptable.
More later.

Remember change nDof and nSwitch to 255 also skins to 7 (its 5 in the default) hit update. In my setup i have only 1 lod visible so i changed the nlod as well to 1 and distance to 1000 (lower lods hopefully will come) Current textures are 4096*4096 will post soon lower textures as well also in the zip i include new dat file that goes to sim folder. REMEMBER if you change the sim folder is multiplayer critical so take a backup!

Awesome! The Corsair II was such a cool looking bird.
-
THIS IS WAY COOL!!!
-
Thats pretty awesome, good luck and thanks in advance for your hard work.
-
Just have patience ppl… as way too much projects are open right now… But its on the “To Do List” 100%
-
Guys, your skills are simply essential !!!
Thank you so much from all the aviation lovers :bowd: -
Cool stuff. Would be Iris willing to share also their A10? That plane needs some love IMO
-
I wouldnt think so as it still payware…. A-7 on the other hand it was free to download
-
Nice! I hope the new Corsair version will not suffer from the “raised leg” problem the current model has (the rear gear / tires not touching the ground, but “levitating” above the surface).
Thanks!

No need too, there is another man here which has a new highly detailed Hog almost ready, but need to finish another dozen Viper models first…
-
How about an a$$-shot: the largest failing of the FF model was the nozzle-area sculpting.
-
You mean something like that? :
Still havent even started to work with the model i have unfinished business that i need to finish first and then i will move on to this one….

U have a point dear friend. Still though i havent started to work the model to reduce whatever i can. Ill try to do my best. I have some ideas i have to put to test some time and i think this model will be the labrat. Lol. So a little patience and we will see
-
Here is reduced to ~35k tris… Not bad i think… I might manage to reduce it more without major losses…
EDIT : And here how the LodEditor shows the model…. Not bad i think… What do u think ppl? Ok i cant reduce it more its starting to have losses and produce holes in the mesh… probably it will take some more tris as i have to add the aim-9 racks that they dont exist other than that personally i dont believe its that bad…

Nice model. With a pretty skin, it should be far above the one we have now in the DB…

@SEG:

Sure thing! And theOriginal 42k tris model even better as it is smoother… Anyway i will make ofcourse for Ikaros team the 42K and i keep this modification to lower poly for the BMS team if they want it
-
So im Back… No screenies yet. I had no connection in my vacations that i could easy use with my laptop so i couldnt do my research for the A-7 but now im back home and i will do. Also do some research to fix some minor issues on the mesh. Will be continue to inform ya guys

Welcome back, dear Manos.

Well, good for you! This is the sense of what ‘some well deserved rest’ really means, don’t you agree?
And thanks in advance for the news to come about the development of this project.
Can’t await to test this beauty too, if you will agree of course.With best regards,

Exactly. Just as per DeeJay proposal to another thread, there should be lod1/2/3 etc within bms poly limits in order to maybe be added to the official db, then we can have another high poly detail model lod1 as an alternative, stand alone download for anyone interested on this and his machine can afford it.
