Hi Renner, glad you back to skinning world!

nice job, i noted screenshots you, Basil and VW team brought to us, very impressive!

as for posting screenies.. i found i can't show pics in yahoogroup folders for long while that's why i post nothing in past months. so..

Say, with so many nice fishbed skins, i think UT guys should consider adjust mig21 lods to adapt more skin sets, rather leaving many duplicated parent records.

CCC, if you need hosting for pics I can help.

[Hunter]

hrenner, your skins are amazing!

YES.
a database bug. will be fixed in next SP.

Hi CCC,
Just to inform you.... the work on my MiG-21 goes on. I cancelled the last try of my silver MiG, it was only 512 and did it once more in 1024 resolution.
Just check the delphi forum for a picture: **NEW***Screenshot Of The Week [message 282]

BTW: Spike, check your mail

Holy..whats next--2048 bmp?!

[Jetfighter]

Ok, that's what I was afraid of. Skinners will start pumping up the resolution of their maps... that'll be a never-ending spiral...

Basil

[ccc]

no worries Basil. making larger texture is a hobby. simmers will pick the format fit their game rig -- everybody have to test the overall gfx performance once they got a new patch.

[hrenner]

Hi Basil,

I really don´t see such a spiral. At 1024 res there is a natural end - what you can´t make on 1024 you can´t do it in 2048 either.

A/C like the A-10 or the Viper which are mapped with more than one bmp should stay at 256 or 512; but A/C like the F-111 or MiG-21 you can do in 1024 - no or only small performance hit but much better overall look.

BTW I saw your Mirage Fleet - WOW
F4 is a never ending story

Best regards

Hi Harald

Ok, maybe it stops at 1024... but this would mean I'd have to redo everything again! Anyway, your MiG really looks great, it's worth the additional pixels
