Well thanks to Jedi, the Ki-61 has an all new texture map and will be ready for schemes very soon. As soon as i figure out how to fix the lighting without killing the mapping it should be ready for another beta. It has all new gear to more historicly reflect the real Ki-61 but till i also figure why it crashes in OPS i can't work on DOFs or line it all up.

enjoy the image.

not yet, i may work on the new panel this week to go with the new release, but the whole cockpit/canopy needs to be reworked.

if the new panel makes it in the beta, i don't think it will have working guages.

Its actually really amazing that you ONLY get that frame rate.

You have 3 times the CPU I have running on a bus thats 2 times as fast.

2 times as fast ram

and 2 times as fast the video card.

K well for all that speed I guess you get about 2xs the frame rate.

Guess you could say its scales ok. except for the CPU part.

if your frame rates seem to peg and not go any higher, you may need to up the limit. when i first had everything setup it would only get 70. which was what i was getting on the 533 celery. i looked over the INI file and found this line

DesiredDisplayRate=70

i then changed it to

DesiredDisplayRate=130

and now i get 120 most of the time, unless there is about 16 planes then i get 70 again

Skins....Skins....did someone mention skins and tony in the same sentence ??

I'll be doing the skins as depicted at my sight under'alternative Japanese'skins(on the Bf109).

Have a look if ya want to avoid double up...but if ya are intending to do one of them then just drop me a line and I'll do another.

Razer, Please let me know if if you're intending to do some of these skins - I don't want to interfere with your project.

Cheers,

Guys, i've emailed a few of you, but if you want to do some schemes for the ki-61 i'll send over the current version. The mapping probably wont change (much) for the next release, But I am working hard to figure out how to fix the lighting. If anyone has any idea's please contact me A.S.A.F.P!

Next stop, new panel..

I can probably do something with the lighting Tony. I thought you might want the plane back to fiddle with, so I sent it "unpolished." I suspect I can fix some of the parts, but perhaps not all of them.

A HUGE favor if someone could do it would be to figure out why it won't work in OPS. The horizontal stabs need to be moved back a foot or so, and the landing gear parts need to be properly aligned. That's an all day task using just AC3D, but 5 minutes work with OPS...

yea, if i remember right, it's the left elevator thats causing the OPs problem. i think i told you right but that was how i was looking at it. Everytime i tried to import that part OPS would crash. i had to manually add it and when i did it crashed OPS. i forgot about it but everything i tried (making new part, or copying the other elevator) is stilled crashed.

Hey Tony,
I'd love to do some skins (checked out AGAS-5's proposed skins so I won't dupe them). Please e-mail the map.
I've got some more skins for the hanger... are you taking any WWI stuff or are they only for OP WWI site?
Thanks

Just thought i'd give a little update. Since i've been unable to track down the OPS crash problem, i'm going to start from scratch. I did this last night but OPS crashed before i could save it.

If should only take me a few hours to do this and i'm also going to try to line up the damage models a little better and maybe even update it some. Plus i'll try to add the new panel (which i hope will be some what done tonight)

Spanky here..

YUCK.

Man what a descrace. If your going to clutter your desktop with icons at least put them around the boarder so as not to cover the main focus of the pic.

OR

You could use litestep

Now this is a desktop.

BTW that bar on the left side hides when your not using it exactly like a start bar.

And every icon folds out to all kinds of them, Those would then be the shortcuts.

AND you can assign any pic you want to those shortcuts.

From left to right the ones at the top are
cacheman
winace
winrar
msconfig
recycle bin
control panel
litestep config
and shutdown menu
that whole thing and the last one on the list is the systems wharf


This shot shows the Start menu or in litestep terms. the Popup menu. Since it can do WAY more then the start menu in win9x

BTW with all this stuff you can totally customize all the images and such.
That popup uses bitmaps for the background colors not just a color you pick so it could be marble if you wanted.

Well, i did have all the icons around the outside of the screen, but i play a lot of Half-Life and if resizes the desktop to 640x480 for the menus. If it crashes (and it does a lot) it moves all the icons back to where they was. I just got tired of moving them back.

Off topic, Windows forgetting icon arrangements: Get EZ Desk. I think it's listed in Winfiles. If not I can dig up the link. It saves icon arrangements for each resolution. I've been using it for about four years.

Yes that is better I would have picked one of the Japanese girls from the game. LOL

But thats just me.

Another plus with that image is the black background doesn't clash so much with the icons.


Great too see that great plane back in the air man.

Can't wait for a good panel and some FM & DM improvments
