PSD's

Post by ranger822 » 2007-06-15 19:12:06

Molnibalage -

The Photoshop PSD's are meant for skinners - you can't do anything with them unless you have CorelDraw, Photoshop or some other graphics editor. Those are intended for others to use in other theaters "after" updating their databases to make use of the new models. Or, if someone wants to mod an existing skin in ITO.

I dont recommend that you try to use the skins in other non ITO databases, unless you know your way around F4Browse and LOD Editor. ITO models have been extensively modified both in terms of the ACDATA files, normal parents, etc - so you won't be able to just use the skin.

However, if you want to modify an existing skin in ITO - the PSD's are great for that - - just open the PSD - select the texture you want to modify and do what you want - resave the DDS image you want to replace. However, I think I pretty much covered most of the paintschemes and most of the signficant players in the IAF that participated in Six Days War, Yom Kippur War or Shlom Hagalil that can play a significant role in Falcon. There are some small things but quite honestly - they are probably not going to make an impact on the outcome of the campaign play. The beauty of ITO is that nearly all the IAF squadrons are there, at their appropriate airfields, within the reasonable limits of Falcon.

PSD's for the rest of the Phantoms

Post by ranger822 » 2008-01-07 14:29:42

I will be posting up some links for PSDs for the other Phantom variants soon. These will include all the Phantom variants not already uploaded at OpenSkins. These models should be available in next RV-Korea release as well as the RV-Israeli release. I contacted Zaggy to upload the PSDs there first - failing that I will just upload to Mediafire.com

Openskins

I talked with Zaggy, he indicated he may be able to provide me some admin access to Openskins to update the website and start posting up more skins and PSDs. I am currently waiting to hear from him on his final decision.

Admin access has been granted - I need to learn my way around the site and the process of updating. Hopefully, I will be the new pointman for Openskins!

Openskins

Post by ranger822 » 2008-02-11 13:29:20

Ranger is on his backsides - with Openskins at the moment. But, I vow to get it going. At the moment I am a little busy assisting with getting the Phantom upgrade into RV-Korea - it was omitted somehow in the last beta test version. There isn't much point in adding to Openskins until folks actually have the Phantoms to fly anyway. That comprises the bulk of my planned contribution to open skins at the moment. There are a few other things but those are lower priority.
