Now you're an expert Gimper as well as an Anorak planespotter!
You'll never look at a Citation the same way again...
Did I hear Nunner volunteer to do a FP for these???
Yes guilty as charged...in fact I have started already,must've volunteered after
a few too many sherberts on my birthday !

The Gulf 200 is such an odd a/c really,to me it looks more like a cross between a Challenger,Westwind 2 and
a Gulf 100. Suppose the thing to do is get it in the air and then if one of our model builder friend builds one then
simply repaint and use it. To be honest and you've done a great job it just looks like a G2TT......ish.
By the way I am working through plans for all the paints as we speak.

Yep, that's about all we can do. The front end is pretty close, the back end, wellCharl wrote:QUOTE (Charl @ Nov 6 2008, 08:10 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Coming along nicely - perhaps I shall have a go at N805M Hawker 800XP Network Jets (Auckland)
Great, thanx Charl. I'll put your name against it in the top post so noone else starts on that.
I'm gonna move onto the two Mustangs, ZK-MUS and N2243W, have found another model which looks easier/more flexible to paint than the Chuck Dome one
ps - as I paint each one I'm approaching photographers on airliners.net to see if we can use a low res copy of their pic of each one of these planes. So far the three I've contacted have been very oblidging and happy for us to use their picture as long as we acknowlegde them as the owner.Deans repaints: http://www.deeknow.com/

Hey Charl,
Do you have a complete list of where these a/c are based, I assume most NZAA ?
Also for purposes of the GNZLAP concept, numbering the a/c ?

Nunner, I put the locations of each aircraft in brackets after their owner/operator in the first post to this thread, including input from CharlLast edited by deeknow on Thu Nov 06, 2008 10:56 am, edited 1 time in total.Deans repaints: http://www.deeknow.com/

It's Deeknow's show, I don't suppose it matters what you number 'em, there are not that many a/c..

...any tips as to how the aircraft.cfg file can be tweaked to lessen the impact when used as AI? Does removing the panel and sound folders from the aircraft directory help?
Quick work!
My XP800 is proving to be probably more than I am capable of...I have sent off a begging letter to Steve Jenks for help!
Yes, remove panel and sound folders as they have no use.
Make sure textures are DXT3.
And see here for a consistent aircraft.cfg setup.Last edited by Charl on Fri Nov 07, 2008 8:25 am, edited 1 time in total.

Hey PD, yep, have you seen the 1st post to this thread? Their Mustang is listed there.
The paint scheme is the same, just the colours are different, I'll be doin that over the weekend some timeLast edited by deeknow on Fri Nov 07, 2008 8:08 pm, edited 1 time in total.Deans repaints: http://www.deeknow.com/

Nice job on the Hawker, looks like a sweetly detailed AI model. As you say Charl, no model for the Global Express, altho I think I did find a pic of it here for sale, may only be a representative photo tho, no rego marks on the aircraft.
So hows about we knock up a package now and incorporate the GlobalExpress in it at a future date?
I'll IM you my email address and if you could zip up your textures and fire them to me I'll test all the aircraft together against the flightplans Nunner has created and sent me.
I was wondering if we shouldnt make up some three-letter airline/parking codes (as per your post over here) for the aircraft.cfg files so people can place them in AFCAD files, we've already got one for Air National but how about something like these for the rest?
AAC - Auckland Air Charter
AAL - Acernus Aero Limited
LOW - Lowe Corp
NBR - National Business Review
NET - Network Jets
PAJ - Pacific Jets
RNK - Rank
The other thing is do we distribute the models with the textures, some like the Dee Waldron ones are free to distribute, or do youz think its easier just to provide filenames and let folks hunt them down for themselves?Last edited by deeknow on Sun Nov 09, 2008 5:31 pm, edited 1 time in total.Deans repaints: http://www.deeknow.com/
