That bomber seriously looks influenced from Evochron, I think Legends or some other one. It could just be me, but I do see a lot of similarities with some of the low to medium range craft you see flying or can fabricate.

A sound effort for both models and textures.  ;)

The Aetna wasn't in INFR1, so I don't know if this Evochron may have inspired it.

Well they'll probably have cockpits in them but won't be configured for cockpit view mode.

I'm 100% OK with that.

Same. I'm not so much into cockpit view, since it's set in the FS universe and the normal game only had a HUD, and that was good enough... just more on the ship model's cockpit itself ala MediaVPs.

That Aetna model is nice (I'm not sold on the new colour scheme, but hey we'll see what happens in time), but it felt kinda backward going back to a retail-ish look. Well to me anyway. :nervous: XD

Wow that was fast.

Uhh the "not having a cockpit in the model" part. It reminded me of retail... sort of. :nervous:

I think that's just FSKing's render. I'm quite sure the model itself has the cockpit.

Oh, really? Hm. So are there plans to add the cockpit back on?

Right on.

Say, does the EA use the same cockpit as the GTVA? That sounds like something that could add some variety.

At the moment they do yes. We don't really have the people to be doing things like making unique cockpits right now.

They can use the same cockpit, but I suggest pilot should have different textures [GTVA and EA uniforms are different].

Yeah that couldn't be too hard to do.

Well I had a couple of ideas to make EA cockpits unique, but those cockpits won't be touched until the other things are done.

Well a simple reskin of the cockpit texture or even just tweaking the hue could add some nice variety for a very cheap price.

You mean the HUD? An EA-specific version of it will almost certainly be used. :)
