Vietnam & ODS with SP2 ?

[Snake Man]

Widowmaker da UI guru is currently hard at work to get Operation Desert Storm fully compatible with the new beautiful SP2 UI and theater switcher.

When Desert Storm setup is completed, Vietnam will soon follow (much sooner as we have ODS as reference to work on). After that I surely will fix up the very UnOfficial Afghanistan.

So... by little more waiting you can surely get cool Vietnam and ODS theater packages from these pages and with little luck you'll find dl link for Afghanistan theater too.

Lets hope everything goes by our plans

Talking of finding a link and all, what happened to "Terrain HQ"?
It was a good idea to keep all the projects 'united' in a home page.

Shinobi, you ready to support ODS/Vnam stuff?

BTW, i heard EW can help adding all skins into upcoming F4skin patch 4.2. Maybe Theater skin pack concept, and our previous skin files can be intergrated in this new skin patch? and linked to UI theater switching?

Well we can do that kind of page here, no problems. But is the Terrain HQ really gone?

That sounds good snakeman, sp2 is a professional piece of work. Best of all it works great on my lousy P3-750-Voodoo3 system, but i am due for an upgrade,soon.

Hey CCC,

Sure I am!
I was desperate with hat Su-27 stuff, but now i have the templates done!
I just need to make some small ajustments, but it doesn't take my whole time anymore!
If you need help with Vnam/ODS - Here I am!

And hey! If you could send me by mail an updated list of "needed" textures for your LODs, i could restart working on 'em!
I'd like to have the LOD's also, but i can download them individually.

And Snakeman, I don't know if it's gone, but my link doesn't work anymore!
In fact, I deleted the bookmark, because it was always going 404! LOL
I'd be glad if you could update me.

And if it's really gone, it would be a good idea to keep it up and running under PMC 'domains'!

Keep up the good work you all, "buddys".

ok, you got SP2 installer 60mb? i think you have LodEditor right? check those missile/bombs/pods first. As i requested before, they need better, authentic skins.

[SHINOBI]

Well i'm still downloading SP2.
It's such a big thing to download...

I'll check those ones.
I got a nice pic of Martel, man!
I can make even the camera, if you modify it a little...

Just post a new "New 3D toy ##" and we'll talk about it better!

I dont know the code for theatres, but can they be switched with the theatre or is it the old method? and yes ccc i am making the new skin package.

[ccc]

After second thought, EW, i think you can go ahead and add all theater skin packs into F4skinpatch4.2, but sort them in default a/c(or ground vehicle) folders.

The switching of whole theater-specific skins could be done by a singel f4p file.

BTW, i've some billboard textures for ODS..hope them wont irriate Islamic people or Amerika

[Ender Wiggin]

i hadnt planned on adding them, but if u want me too, then where are they?

[ccc]

spyder's site,
www.siteofshadow.de

[Ender Wiggin]

which one(s) do you want to add.

[ccc]

ALL

just kidding, add Vnam and ODS first.
note: there could be duplications.

[Widowmaker]

complete object files can be switched

so basically Snakeman can patch up the objectfiles and deliver them them within
the installer... no f4patch needed to swith between skins

same holds trye for almost alll expects of the sim

[Widowmaker]

Tiling does not require high skills, its rather easy when you get familiar with the tile-set.

Email me to nospam and I'll have you going in no time.

Thanks, we really appreciate any help.

hey hhheagle... You dont need a graphics editor to tile (and I will argue ANY day of the week, those packages kick adobe's butt... I use photoshop everyday... GIMP is cool tho...)

If you do want to do a bit of tiling, first read the tiling tutorials on PMC (http://www.pmctactical.org/f4/terraintutorial.php), then give Snake Man a quick email... You'll find his email address on the site somwhere... Then u'll be assigned a region and you can tile away to your hearts content...
