I flattened out the wing rivets as per Helo's suggestion. Still lots to adjust.

Killer,

You obviously have lots of taste.

;)

Go here ...

http://www.nerb.ca/fi_skins/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

When you become a member and a regular in the on-line sessions we'll make the personal skins for you with name and number. Until then, enjoy the defaults.

Gah!

Over twelve hours to get this freaky l'il bug to THIS point. You'd think the guy who did the void would check his flippin' work a wee bit!

Image

I understand that the new beta patch fixes the overheating problem. I hope they fixed the missing propeller too.

Between the 3d modeler, the void artist, Oleg's wacky coders and me this freak is more hypothetical than it ever could possibly be in reality, but it looks cool and I'm not ready to do the IL-10 yet.

I just don' t get it.

Trial and error. Copy the void and try it out in the game. See where all the lines and stuff are and move them closer to the *right* spot, load up the void again, run the game, take twenty pics, check the new positions, move them closer to where they should go ...

over and over and over and over and over and over again.

It's just oodles of fun!

ehh
