This is not happening.....

Well, I think Im giving up on this Mod attempt for new aircraft, have most of the models done and skinning will soon be underway. thats not a problem.

Cloning and exporting to SH3 is nightmare, Ive played with pack 3D - seen how the current SH3 aircraft models are structured - sliced up in to sections each part an .Obj file, I have no Idea how to place guns and ordinance where I want them, I have no Idea what all these 'nodes' are, and thats only the begining of my troubles.

Its all way over my head, I cant even begin to understand any of it, Ive tried and played around with it for days now - and Im no better off than when I started, i cant take it anymore. the only way I would learn, is if somebody took me though it all step by step, and that sure aint gonna happen.

.

I will finnish doing the models anyway.
Im really sorry i cant make these planes in to a mod, I really have given it my best shot. I must have been crazy to think I could pull this off on my own.

I will be happy to hand the finnished models over to any expirenced modder who is willing to follow this though. Any takers???

(B-17 and Halifax still being worked on)

Just hang in there..we were all Mod beginers of this game when it came out, just takes time and patience, i'm sure someone on the forums will help you out as much as possible.

Know how you feel mate
Had a spitfire model that I could do nothing with
The only people I know who have had success with aircraft are Sergbuto and the Russian forum

meh, well i cant speak Russian, and I already 'kind of asked' Sergbuto - I dont think hes really that interested.
So i geuss thats that.
A while ago the devs offered to add cutom models to sh3 via the official boards, dont think anyone took them up on it - I doubt the the offer is still going.
