Sabertooth Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Racer and myself decided it would be easier to have just one thread to track down instead of three. He will be posting updates for the F-14D Tomcat, F-18 Super Hornet F and new US Carrier all in this thread. So stay tuned for future updates. I leave you with the latest posted pic and also go to Virtual Navy Ops for more info.:thumbup: http://www.virtualnavairops.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=9 2 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrumTx Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Looking Excellent!!!! Remember the 346 Fire Fighters, Medics & Police who died on 9-11....... Selective memory is a wonderful thing, especially when certain posts simply disappear into the ether never to be seen again, unless I have a copy of the original post copied and pasted into word documents and saved .... just in case :) Am I an abusive idiot ?

Alfa Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Looks impressive :) Did you convert the carrier model to lom and try it in Lock-on though?......it looks very "heavy"(number of polygons) :) . JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Troooper Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I hope it will be optimized like the stabs of the Tomcat. :):) Dreams come true. A.K.A Csocso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabertooth Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 Alfa, as far as I know from Racer no work has begun on the Carrier. All models in that picture are from meshfactory as were purchased by Racer, EricJ and myself. Racer I am sure will shave the poly's down the best he can as he is doing the same right now for the Tomcat. And Trooper, I am sure it will, Racer is diving headstrong into this project, and really showing off his talents. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabertooth Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 And a update for everyone::thumbup: F-14 is coming together nicely. Also he has brought the SuperHornet up to speed with the Tomcat as he is working on both to make sure everything is still fresh in his mind. Also get them out a little quicker. :thumbup: And your SUPER HORNET!!! And a quote from Racer: "Moving right along guys. Doing these in tandom is clearly the way to go. It is still fresh in my head what I did on one and can quickly tranfer this over to the other. F-18F Hornet Super Bug Update: Total Poly Count thus far: 1720 I have now completed the model up to the same point as the F-14D model. I am also attaching the texture file as we will be doing this the same way as the F-14D. May the best texture win. On to the F-14D Wings next." Looking forward to posting future updates. :pilotfly: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabertooth Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 Will do Trooper. :thumbup: Glad to hear that everyone is supportive of the talent behind this project. Also, spoke to EricJ today and he will be texturing both aircraft. A ton of support behind Virtual Navy Ops. In the form of Racer doing the models and EricJ doing the textures. And we would like to that the community for the great support behind this massive project. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laud Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Great project guys!! What about EricJ creating a template so more skinners could bring in their work based upon that? Keep goin'!

snowbird2 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Hey Alfa, Oh for sure they are all 3 very fat with poly's and don't stand a chance in the game without being trimmed down. But have you heard the saying "How do you eat an elephant"? One bite at a time........:smilewink: My main goal here is to trim down and clean them up and lay down the texture maps for Eric to hammer out. The long term goal would be to have all 3 in a single mod. Short term, one plane in at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabertooth Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 Thanks for the kind words everyone. And yes we are hoping this will change the Naval aspect of Lockon for everyone.:pilotfly: :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
159th_Viper Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 With so much being done by the Talented Community within the strict parameters that LockOn imposes, I am always amazed at the next development - something which I thought would not be possible having due regard to the amount of work/additions already contributed :) To All the Talented Individuals in the LockOn Community and in particular the members behind the Virtual Navy Ops developments, turning an already Great Simulation into something special that caters for all tastes, however diverse........

Yeah I figured as much - thats why I asked ;) . Racer I am sure will shave the poly's down the best he can as he is doing the same right now for the Tomcat. I am sure, but as far as the "Ike" is concerned, I think he needs to swap the shaver for a chain saw :D JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowbird2 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Maybe a big 10' logger's chain saw. :lol: Believe me, I am under no illusion of what it will take to get these into the game. I alway like a good challange....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I can see you know your stuff - I was just a little worried whether you realised the level of work involved with the shaving there :) .
