That was the first model I worked on but couldn't finish it. Finally with the experiance from other models I was able to. I'm not 100% happy with it but I think it's good enough. Anyway I better leave planes to Rabbit, White.

EDIT: Unit as a mod, little brighter, separate textures, new screenshot.

It's a great model sharick, just make the texture a bit brighter. And please don't leave planes to me

if I make another model it's probably going to be something different.

rupertlittlebea · Feb 28, 2006

actually, it is rather nice.

Sweet!
Now I just need to figure out how to replace the Jet Fighter in the regular game...

very nice, gonna send screenshot to my brother who is plane buff.

Hmm, you went with the politically correct Vertical Stabilizer emblem?

Any chance of doing a version with more historically correct emblems & markings?

This is a nice one for a "third unique unit" mod.

You really should tell me when you make a new unit!

And could you reskin it with the swastika (unless that black blob in the tail already is one)? Or can I import it into 3dsmax & edit the skin?

CurtSibling · Mar 2, 2006

Excellent work!

It could be a tad brighter, but works for a grim WW2 mood!

sharick · Mar 2, 2006

The emblem is historically correct (to small to see) but I left out some markings because I wanted to use them for teamcolor and I don't know how to do it yet. You can see for yourself - download max plugin and run SceneViewer.exe (BoundShape.nif file must be where the model is).

No new models for now. I'm tweaking the last ones. They will be loadable as a mod and will have separate .dds textures for anyone who want to change it. I also managed to to import a unique animation sequance to the game but it plays only once when the unit is created. This plugin is not 100% complete.

When is SDK coming out???????

Well, if you start holding your breath now you might *just* survive till it comes out.

Okay, I had to zoom in quite a bit, but you do have the swastika on the vertical stabilizer, which is correct.

One thing you could do for Team Coloring:
German Fighters at different periods had bands along the rear of the fuselage.

Example: http://www.ww2incolor.com/gallery/german-luftwaffe/aha

The bands signify different purposes, like dedicated Reich air defense units. For the Germans in Civ IV, a yellow band, IMO, would suit nicely.

Thanks for tip but I don't know how to solve it yet. If the model will be used in WW2 mod than it should have all the german markings of the period and no teamcolor because it'll be buildable by Germany only. If somebody wants to use it in different way I should remove all the german stuff and just add place for teamcolor.
Suggestions?

As for now I leave it as it is. Textures are separate now so feel free to change whatever you want.
