Spit V Trop

[jocko417]

Seriously hoping this one has the normal fuselage, not the skewed one... makes skinning it a lot easier.

Hehe, see the squad in my sig? Doncha know I keep a Mk Vc up my sleeve at all times? Mmmm, 4x20mm...

[VF101_Sgt.Snif]

Is it gonna be flyable in 3.05m?
or in 4.0m???

[KRISTORF]

3.05 is defunced mate, straight to 4.0

[VF101_Sgt.Snif]

rgr m8, thank's.

though I heard something that it might be needed to pay to get the 4.0m version, is it right?

[VW-IceFire]

Jocko...the modeler tells us that its based on Nymes Spitfire VIII/Seafire III model. Which means it probably doesn't have the skewed fuselage of the other type.

Infact, I think there is already a void ready for it.

[LeadSpitter_]

I really hope they plan on adding a better skin then that for being in the game.

[VF101_Sgt.Snif]

heck with the skin! just add it into game!
skin later add now http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

though I heard something that 4.0m is gonna be on pay or something like that.

I`m working on better default skins for Mk.Vc right now. (those hard coded in the game I mean)

Definately not...you heard very wrong http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I'm glad to hear that better default skins will be in. That one is not very good. If possible...roundels on the skin would be good (see the Corsair Mark II/IV in any European map).

[VF101_Sgt.Snif]

rgr thank's m8, good to hear.
heck I hope the new version will work on my piece of sh**

I feel your pain every time I see those RAF markings. I decided to do both RAAF and RAF skins with roundels painted right on skin so only letters have to be added by game. But what will the development team do with it is a question.

Before I took the opportunity to change those previous skins (I don`t want to blame the skinner, but there are some well known awesome skinners out here to do the job better), there were 2 versions. One for 4 hispanos in desert RAF colors with and without flash fin and another 2 hispanos verion with RAAF foliage green over dark earth (+ RAAF flash fin). This is what I already did except I prepare another pack with roundels painted. What they choose is not up to me.

Here some WIP screenies to do some corrections if needed:

Skin on which the default RAAF skin is based on:

As you see, camouflage goes over the sides of the aboukir filter.

It needs some work (antenne mast, cockpit...)

You did all the Mk.VIIIs already. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif Write ma an email on lubrik *et* gmail.com, I did small psd where the aboukir filter is located on the void, if you;re interested. As Slavas Spitfire expert you could post few sentences about the work above.

Ahh, I`m sorry. It`s nice to have 2 versions, everyone has another style. I wrote yesterday I did desert skin based on Barnhams plane...

Hints?

[SeaNorris]

Yep. Realease the Template hehe.

[KRISTORF]

Nice scheme Robo.

SeaNorris, the void was released previosly and can be made into a template easy enough. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

[SeaNorris]

I am not to good at that.

[VF101_Sgt.Snif]

umm, another question...

Is the 4x20mm spitfire gonna be added as AI or flyable when 4.0m comes out??

and btw, I really like the new british markings m8, they look really like the real ones, good work m8.
Over and Out.

[Robo.]

I don`t plan to "release" the template as there is only one chaotic 120MB big psd file. I don`t have time to merge it and make it usable. The plane is dream to skin when compared to the Mk.Vb.

and yes, the plane will be flyable.

[Grisha7]

Love those new Spits Robo, excellent work http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/25.gif Waiting for this patch is like being a kid waiting for Christmas all over again...

[KRISTORF]

I started on MkVc, done 4 schemes so far, frob is fine tuning them with no Vc to fly on.

[Sockeye45]

Bump.... lookin' forward to this addition http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

hints? if i told you my secrets i'd have to kill you http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif they look really good to me.

[VW-IceFire]

Too bad the Mark VIII didn't get quite as much attention to camo details. This looks great if they are the defaults.

[9th_simplex]

can't wait - can'T wait....

http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

btw.. MY Med. MkVIII skins have the air intake in camo as well http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Ok.. we had this before but i am still unsure..
The sins are looking great and seem not be disorted like MkVb,IX now. Do they have skin files like the Seafire and MkVIII? Please don'T tell me they have those awfull ones...

[Robo.]

Yes, it`s confirmed - these will be the game defaults. At the SimHQ thread posted somewhere above are some more pics.

I sent the versions with roundels painted directly on the skin and it`s quite sure these will be chosen. Except RAAF camouflage, genric malta defender default scheme (based on blue Beurlings spitfire) and generic RAF desert scheme (based on the Barnhams one) will be probably present in game. But as I said, it`s not in my hands.

MaxL - thanks. Your secrets? What secrets can you have in painting skins. (SAY TO ME SAY TO ME SAY TO ME) http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif In general, the style used is quite similar to yours, mate.

simplex - the Mk.Vc skin folder is already present in PF since instalation or later patch. Looking at the void you can see it`s the newer one and not the awful Gibbage (?) mapping. Dream to skin if I can say so.

Mr. IceFire - I had not better look at the Mk.VIII, but there could still be some time to add better defaults into the patch. The question is, if "they" will do it, because the quality is not that bad. Maybe, if there are some big mistakes in the camos, it could be replaced by some cool Mk.8s done by ace skinners around here...
