Crashmo Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 New to modding and skinning Devrim, both you and Ricardo are doing a fantastic job. They are works of art. I am new to the hobby of making all sorts of adjustments to these files. So my question may have been answered already. I have only spent hours searching these threads, not months. When you make mods to pits, instruments, systems, mirrors, etc., do you start with a layered file like .psd for Photoshop? If so, where do you find those? The only thing available are the skins templates that cover the major exterior. I know all of the .bmp and .dds files are in the program, but these are a single layer and cannot be extruded into their once original layered properties. Do you convert the .dds files into a .bmp and then work on top of them, building your own layers in Photoshop? Thanks for any help/advise. Keep modeling. :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 As long as we're fixing switches, can we fix the INU UPDATE switch to have the correct labels? The up position should be labeled "I-251", since in that position the I-251 "Shkval" is used to mark the fixpoint. The bottom position should be labeled "OFLY", since in that position, the helicopter must overfly the fix point. "INU UPDATE" describes what the switch does, but not what each position does.

Actually these questions are for RICARDO who is the first creator of cockpit mod. But if I write something, I may say that -yes- I convert RICARDO's .dds files to .bmp and editing them via Photoshop. In time, some layers are being created by me and I keep editing them for new cockpit views. As far as I know, there's no any cockpit template to edit/create new cockpits. I think RICARDO does create his own graphics for cockpit mods. As long as we're fixing switches, can we fix the INU UPDATE switch to have the correct labels?

Oh yes, I think this (or similar one) was argued before. You're right. May be the attached file can work for now. That was a quick work. Later I can make it better.

The bottom position should be labeled "OFLY", since in that position, the helicopter must overfly the fix point. "INU UPDATE" describes what the switch does, but not what each position does. I would like to know if it's possible to show the difference "before & after" in sceenshots of the INU Update ? I possess the G-Blue pit of Devrim and I do not see this bug, please can you show me one screenshot with "before and after" ? PS: I'm very sorry for my poor Englis, best regards.

Stretch Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Hey Devrim, thanks as always for the continued work on this mod. It's still my favorite cockpit mod by far =) While researching an ABRIS function, I came across this little gem. Based on what that guy says, the TLG and TLF (telegraph and telephone) modes are swapped: the up position is telegraph mode (filters out the base signal) and the down position is telephone mode. I can't seem to find much information on these two broadcast modes via google. Perhaps a real-life pilot/NDB expert can shed some light on this. Anyway, if that guy is correct, it'd be a simple fix, right? OK, I checked it out, here's what I found: - In the Russian and American textures, the TLF position is the top position. - This real-life manual for the ARK-22 ( http://aviadocs.net/RLE/Mi-26T/Cd3/system/ark22/APK22-1.pdf ) shows that TLF is the top position (p. 78). - In the top (TLF) position, I hear only unsquelched static. In the bottom (TLG) position, I hear a carrier wave and the Morse code station identifier. - Section 1.3.2 of that manual describes the operation of the switch. Do we have a native Russian speaker who can translate? As best I can tell, it says that the TLF position is used to listen to AM ADF radio stations, and the TLG position is used to listen to FM ADF radio stations. The Ka-50 sim manual implies that all ADF stations in the sim are FM. - Note that section 1.3.2 says this switch is only used for LISTENING to the morse code identifier. The ADF, in compass mode, will provide a bearing to the station regardless of switch position. So, if I'm correct -- and PLEASE have a native speaker verify -- then probably the best names for the switch positions are "AM" and "FM", with "AM" being the top position.

And of course that's slightly a different approach. Thanks Stretch. I would re-work on that area to change them as "AM" and "FM". But some may want to see the labels as possible as closer to the original terms. Let's see... I can do it how people decide. :joystick: Intel i7-14700@5.6GHz | MSI RTX4080 Super SuprimX | Corsair V. 32GB@6400MHz. | Samsung 1TB 990 PRO SSD (Win10Homex64) Samsung G5 32" + Samsung 18" + 2x8"TFT Displays | Saitek X-55 Rhino & Rudder | TM MFD Cougars | Logitech G13, G230, G510, PZ55 & Farming Sim Panel | TIR5 >>MY MODS<< | Discord: Devrim#1068 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
