Hey Porco!

 

I love this skin, Really great job with it!

 

It would be really cool to see a version of this as 91-0405.

 

"405" seems to have much more prominant/bright gray markings ontop of the Have Glass base colour which to my eyes look much better, I like the contrast. ;).

Or even a Gray radome Jet such as 91-0391

Anyway, just suggestions, I'm loving fly the skin as is, but since you've already done a lot of the hard work with the tail graphic and the Have Glass roughmets it would be cool to see these variations. :D

 

Great Job!

Awesome skin - love it!

 

As a side note, I didn't know what "Have Glass" was, so I found a little tidbit about it:

 

"Have Glass is the code name for a series of RCS reduction measures for the F-16 fighter. Its primary aspect is the addition of an indium-tin-oxide layer to the gold tinted cockpit canopy. This is reflective to radar frequencies, while it may seem odd, adding a radar reflective coating actually reduces the plane's visibility to radar. An ordinary canopy would let radar signals straight through where they would strike the many edges and corners inside and bounce back strongly to the source, the reflective layer dissipates these signals instead. Overall, Have Glass reduces an F-16's RCS (radar-cross section) by some 15 percent."

Superb work!

Thanks for sharing this with us!

I'm glad you've altered/corrected the rough met layer.

I know ED's F16 texture is not final and I also hope the artist will try to get an overall rendering closer to the real thing as it tends to be too shiny in the current state.

(even if this one is specifically made for the Have Glass tech)

 

Also thanks to rrohde for showing me this thread ;)

 

Beautiful livery @PorcoRosso86!

I’m new to this. How do I go about installing this after download?

After the downloading extract the folder and put it on C:\Users\USERNAME\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Liveries\F-16C_50

If the folder "Liveries" and "F-16C_50" doesn't exist create them

That's a great idea; I'll do for sure ( when I've a bit of free time!

Thanks a lot dude! I tried to do my best to doing an effect as close the real life as possible

Thanks for the info dude!

I've found the same (but maybe complete) explanation here. The pic from near is truly amazing!

Looking great PR!

 

Any chance of seeing versions of those other two aircraft (91-0391 and 91-0405) at some point? Would be great to see some more variations based on this great scheme.

Update to include or suppress Bort # features added by ED today?

 

Porcorosso86, beautiful work. Today's ED update added bort #'s. Will you be updating the Have Glass skin to either incorporate or suppress that feature, so we can continue using it?

 

Appreciate your time and talent!
