@MAPA In simple terms I made it like this :
- I chose a fuselage part which I want to paint on
- I then bring in a hollow fuselage and copy the shape of the designated fuselage block (length, width, height, inclination, etc), then color that hollow fuselage in a different color
- Then I put the hollow fuselage in the same position of that fuselage block, until they clip inside one another, then make the hollow fuselage just a tiny bity bigger so that the 'clipping' effect doesn't appear
- I then simply change the shape of that hollow fuselage accordingly, utilizing fuselage cutting most of the time to get the desired shape, whilst making sure that the hollow fuselage doesn't 'sink' into the fuselage block but also not poke out too much, I then repeat this for every step of the painting
Sorry if it sounded convoluted, it's easier to understand while doing it, it's quite literally just like painting something
Edit : as for how I did this camouflage specifically I basically followed a blueprint
I used to have several fictional aircraft (and one weaponry) corporation 2 years ago, the biggest ones are Tavorsky and Kenworth, Kenworth is essentially the Western aircraft corporation (Boeing, Lockheed, Grumman, etc) whilst Tavorsky is the Eastern aircraft corporation (Mikoyan, Sukhoi, Ilyushin, etc), these two are based on the two biggest island, Wright for Tavorsky and Krakabloa for Kenworth, all they essentially do is to build military aircraft to constantly one up each other, I haven't continued their series as I found replica builds to be more enjoyable lol, the latest planes I've made for them are the Tavorsky T-50, basically a copy of the S-70 Okhotnik-B Drone but as a bomber, and the Kenworth K-14 Bugs, a crossover between the F-14 and the ducking XF-85 Goblin, though the best planes I've made for each side are the T-14-27-RV for Tavorsky, a copy of the Su-27, and the K-4 Water-C, a copy of the F-35
There are also other companies that exist during this period, such as Babylon, basically Iran Aircraft Manufacturing Industrial Company (HESA), that produces like 3 planes, one of them being a copy of the Qaher-313, then there's Zukaiku, a Chinese based aircraft corporation, with it's competitor being Takoyaki, as you'd expect a Japanese based corporation, and finally the sole weapons manufacturer, Sendjata Ksatria (SK), basically my own version of the Indonesian company PT Pindad, which produces tanks, ships, and some planes, I believed I made my first custom missile under this company
So yeah I guess now you learned something new today, I didn't upload these planes cause by the time I started uploading things here those planes were already a year old, however you can still see the K-14 and an earlier version of the T-14 in action on my Blinding Lights video at 2:15
Edit : TL;DR basically my own attempt at recreating aircraft development of mid to late Cold War, the lore is very shallow though as I didn't make any kind of sophisticated lore at the time
@BaconAircraft Well I've actually just found out what the issue was, it was the gyro installed on the missile, it was installed on a 45deg angle as a measure by me to stop the missile from just slamming into the ocean when on it's way to the carrier group, and for whatever reason when that rotated gyro was rotated 90deg it does... well this
Additional notes : I also couldn't press anything when the game goes black, that's why you can see me bring up the back button of my phone to actually pause the game as opposed to just clicking the pause button, seems like something's causing the game to lag so badly it freezes all other functions
Never thought I'd see one of, if not the first plane I've ever downloaded from the SP website be modernized with up-to-date features, it's like seeing a P-51 be armed with AiM-9X or something, very cool! Here's an upvote 👍
@AcePlayer yeah they're meant to be like that lmao, it's only effective against far out targets and even then it's only accurate on large targets (as the S-75 is designed to intercept)
I accidentally built this a little too big so I've downsized it a little using overload, if there's anything strange regarding the physics of this build that's probably why.
Just a quick notice, due to life stuff I would be less active than during June-August, this goes for both playing and posting, I will still post from time to time just less frequently (as if it was to begin with), but no worries I will stay here for the foreseeable future.
@SELWYN101 I believe that's caused by the wheels sinking into the ground causing the game to try to forcibly push it out causing that bouncing effect, perhaps you can try to increase the wheel's mass via XML as it worked for me when I built this tank and encountered the same problem
Well... Since because SP is an offline game that doesn't offer a service of any kind (like say transactions, server hosting, etc, it wouldn't be SP at that point) it itself wouldn't get blocked because it's not in the category, so it pretty much depends on the certification of the platform that had SimplePlanes (like Steam for example, and you know how that went), as for the website itself, well all websites falls under Google and since they have signed the PSE thing it's safe
Edit : idk much about law (Indonesian law to be exact) so sorry if this is wrong or unclear
Ah I believe that space is reserved for advertisements, that usually shows up when no ads are loaded or when the amount of ads is less than the available blanks spaces
Found this method out while messing around and I decided to make a video about it with absolutely nothing unusual happening in it especially at the end yeah nothing happens it's all normal ok guys
Personally, being on an older device (Snapdragon 660, 3gb ram 32gb storage) SP can be heavy to run after 460+ parts, and completely unplayable at 615 or more, other things that lagged the device out are long FT codes, image labels, and XML upscaled parts
@CallsignSkywalker Well... perhaps there's a way to turn an image into a code that is compatible with the coding language used by the label part and then just simply copy-pasting instead of going through the converter, however I have no idea how to do that and neither do I know if it'll work or not, other than that unfortunately there isn't a way to make a label image on mobile unfortunately
@CallsignSkywalker I used the IA Image Importer app for it, I simply saved the image of the flag and roundel from google, make their backgrounds transparent, and run them through the app. Also if you're using this method make sure the resolution isn't too high as it can freeze the editor every minute or so
Ah these usually have something to do with your internet connection, try switching from WiFi to cellular data or vice versa and see if the download speed changes

@UmbrellaCorporation Well... I bought it off of an online marketplace so it's sort of in-between
+1@UmbrellaCorporation Yea, Filmora9 to be exact
+1@Aarav Fair enough

@HigginsBlackBird Ok but no promises though, life got in the way most of the time but I'd try to get to it if I can.

Freck I just realized I wrote KPAF (Korean People's Air Force) instead of KPA (Korean People's Army) 💀💀💀
@OrionIndustries I used Filmora9 to edit the video, and ingame I used the FreeCam mod to take shots
Update : The tank is out
Thank you all so much for 100 followers, oh and here's a rare irl picture I found of the rear of this tank
This is a trailer for my 100 followers special post so yeah
Oh and the Hard-kill APS scene is staged (but the APS still works tho just only against AI missiles)
@xNotDumb it's Aeroclub2

@Rocketguy2079 Sure!, here you go mate

@SELWYN101 I'll think about it

+2@SpartanBallistics cool! thanks
+1@ProfessionalLander just add the input just after the main code, and don't forget to put said code in a bracket first
It should look somewhat like (Stab2/{elevation}) + {whatever input you'd like}
+1floor(smooth(input,1/x)), x is the delay in seconds, to invert this code replace floor with ceil

+3- There's 7 variants so far, A, B, C, D, NG, E, F
- Unsure but I think the NG is a technology demonstrator while the E is a more finalized version of the NG
- Yes, it only needed 500 meters of runway to takeoff and 600 meters to land, 400 and 500 with the older A and B models
