About to give up.

32.4k TheAceOwl  9.0 years ago

You know, I've put a lot of effort into my craft these last few months. Yet after 30-50 downloads, no one will up-vote or even comment about it. I would like to see more comments about my vehicles please, I'm getting tired of spending hours of these and then a lot of people down load it and say nothing. This needs to change, fast. If it doesn't then I might just not play or upload anymore. So PLEASE, I want to know what you think. And PLEASE look at other planes in my line, i have a lot of vehicles that are great designs yet did not get any attention what so ever.

    This community is a little stingy with upvotes. Probably at least in part because hundreds of airplanes are uploaded each day. Most communities have more viewers than publishers, but we're the other way around. Everyone wants to create and share their creations. That's really great, but it also means everyone is more interested in creating than trying other people's creations. Also, after you fly a hundred or so airplanes, they all start to look and fly about the same way, so there's a bit of a jaded factor here too. Hope this helps.

    first, please calm down. take your time before you read the next line

    #

    okay,assume that u are calm and can take another peer's word.
    Then you can picture a innovation without engineers. what would that be?
    I am slow so I came up ideas and I wait till many of them fit toghther then why don't I do this? well to cumulate is a hard job and building easier.I am not even trying to put doubts about your ability. But your route of argument is wrong. I can simply say that I will upload some of my longest-surviving aircrafts to show that I have details and I add them slowly. but I will say it another way. don't judge peers by their vice. I didn't judge you by your planes I just said that they are not what you can do if you put all your strengths to it for that I am sure u can read it again and see if you can find any sarcastic or superialities.
    IMHO, I wasn't trying to say that you are not as good as me.I wasn;t saying your creations are shits so I don't understand why you have to be so negative on me. What I was saying was some suggestions that you can take as shit or wind I don't care but don't be that rude thanks.
    Phoenix Zis.

    @phoenixzis i dont judge by numbers, i judge by creation and dear, you cant say that mine arnt that detailed when yours arn't that sparkly either. If you hadn't noticed, Ill tell you what I do. I innovate. I couldnt give two shits about detail, they are my creations and I have pumped out so many different types that I often have to scroll down my list just to remember what i have mad. Yeah I know they are a bit plane, but I make up for that in the different kinda of ways I can make them. And at the scale I build, its a bit hard to put much detail into them.

    and really the more work inside sth the better voting it will get. Download sth form the good guys and learn from them. and also, you might not care about listening to some one who is 195 at this moment--well , that is not even a fraction of yours.

    Talking about download, I got a IRBM spent a weekend on it and got 91 downs and got 2 ups so downs aren't ups and aren't points. If somebody downs your plane you are good to catch eyes. I only down what I think is good and I am not sure if this applies everywhere. about your planes....you can paint them differently , for a start. serious colorings are more prone to catch eyes... you can use different shades for color, I mean gray and black are similar but if you use them together, Boom, got the effect. I don't care about the points is a over statements but I never feel afraid to talk to @ Delphinus or others with large points and I don't think points decide how good you build. one can get points for nth by getting a competition( almost 1000 points if you get about 30 successors) .I DON'T WANT TO MAKE YOU ANGRY OR SAD but your planes ....they are tunned but a bit more work can go into them.....colorings, details.......and my way to add them is that I first look up all the real planes that are in this category and then I look at all their different cockpits pictures and 3d cutaways to memorize what they need to function. Then I go for a mock up market research-- what it had to be, how fast, how agile . then I draw the simple schematics and try to imagine what a real plane will need--radiators,(cooling) radio antenna, air speed instruments and gizmo lights, all those things have a technical significant. you can't pull a shape in SP without planning and designing. or they will be truly unrealistic . you can find that I don't do replicas. I CAN'T . I am not skilled at replicating stuffs and so on. I dream to be a aviation engineer so I really took this game seriously. But I think the ability to make up planes are not so rare . making a plane that can fly in the real world and inside this game is really sublime. So even in SP we stick to some age-old designing rules.

    I just build and upload, then just watch if anyone downloads it or not. If anyone downloads my plane that is be my prize. Upvote is good but not the ultimate goal. I think number of download is.

    I believe your planes need more pzazz. Just doing an all gray look is not going to entice the large majority of users who are more interested on cool looks than historical accuracy. :3

    @ronyseptian17 I do sometimes, I just rather not since adding bits onto the plane creates drag.

    For@TheOwlAce.. Maybe you should add some details into your planes.It will make your plane more interesting.But your planes are interesting too without detail

    @TheOwlAce if your planes are being downloaded, you are fine. Your planes are catching the eye of somebody. It must be good enough, if somebody thinks they should spend some time with it. Downloads count towards a plane's popularity.

    @AgDynamics Im had tried to do that but I simply dont like it. I know my planes are simple and unnoticeable but I do research into them to see what would be the best way to make them at my scale.
