Re: Name change to Retexture of the GTF Ezechiel
The model needs to be reconverted anyway, is suffers from horrible smoothing errors, especially evident in the pics with shine/env mapping.

The new maps kick ass though :yes:

Thanks for letting me know. But doing all that is currently out of my league. Your welcome to go for it however!  :D

Re: Name change to Retexture of the GTF Ezechiel
Everyone,
I'm nearly completed with this project and just need someone who has the time to take a look at the CG model and fix the gap on the side and the other gaps on the weapons pods (thanks Trashman for pointing that out)
Also, to add in Trashmans Squadron plates to the side (I have his .pof model too for this).

Once I get the new .pof model back from you, I'll make final adjustments to the Texture, shine, normal and glow maps and upload them ASAP. I will include several different schemes like the ones you have seen in this thread, plus more you have not seen.

If anyone wishes to tackle this, post here and I'll upload the files.

Thanks to all who helped me on this journey from start to finish!  :D

I'll take a look at fixing the model. No guarantees tough...
PCS2 has been acting wonky with the Ezechiel model before, when I made the insignia. Kept spouting errors like crazy. The mesh is messed up.  I'll see what can be done about it :P

Re: Name change to Retexture of the GTF Ezechiel
I think I fix0red it. It had more missing faces than I initially though, but it's done.
New insignias added, old insignias removed.

Try it out

Re: Name change to Retexture of the GTF Ezechiel
Wow, you did great fixing the model errors (that I remember and can see)! And I truly Thank you for that!

However, in the POF editor, I see the tercoc01 is showing black and the glass entry is missing in the list. Thanks for getting rid of the Numwhite01, but was your Squadron insignia entry suppose to be included?
Also, I tried to add them into the POF editor, but they don't do anything as in not associated with the glass, the cockpit, etc. I went back to the original I have and when you click on the texture glass or any of the other ones, the associated part shows in wire frame. How do I fix that?

My apologies if I sound like I'm being a pest about this Trashman.

Trying out the window thingy I hope this works and thanks for the info about this too Galemp. :)



As you can see, another scheme for a campaign I have been wanting to do for sometime now. Since I'm busy with TotT, this campaign will sit on the back burner for awhile.  ;)

Re: Name change to Retexture of the GTF Ezechiel
Nice, but the spectacular maps still need alpha reduction...

 
Re: Name change to Retexture of the GTF Ezechiel
Thanks for that!,

I know it's too shiny at the moment. I'm playing with the shine map making adjustments with different filters and so to see what works, what effect happens with the combinations of filters I use. So far nothing great to write about.  :)

Re: Name change to Retexture of the GTF Ezechiel
Honestly, I liked it better white/teal...that's just me though.

Re: Name change to Retexture of the GTF Ezechiel
The white and teal is still there. I'm just making many different versions as I do believe just like today's Naval squadrons, they are not all the same. It will give the user options to choose what they wish to fly with. :)

tercoc01 showing black? Ahouldnt's happen.
Galss entry should also be in there. I can check and re-convert, it's no problem.

As far as number01, I removed it. My squadron insignia is insluded yes. It's on the same place the old one was, only it bigger and can be better seen....and actually works.
 In case you didn't know, squad logo is addded to the insignia in FRED, and doesn't normally show up.

Thanks for letting me know about the squadron logo and how it's loaded in. :)
