Hi all,

Just one shot of the A2A Mustang



Enjoy

Wow...excellent detail...well done Stephane...

And it's a stunner! Great work

Looks like just one shot is all anyone would ever need!

DANG that is a sharp looking girl!

Wow it looked like a real one at first glance!

Aie caramba! Great shot! How did you get all the shine on the paint? Are you using Direct X 10?

Thanks a lot for these excellent comments, gentlemen

The shiny texture has been obtained thanks to some explanations found on the A2A website. The technique is quite simple in fact:

1- first, you need to download a package from avsim, made by the famous Bananabob (Rob Rivera, author of some excellent photorealistic repaints for a LOT of planes). The package contains an alternative texture for the environment map (what is appearing in the reflections of your planes):

Do not follow the installation instructions, unless you are willing to go for a global test...

2- In this package, you'll find two DDS textures.

3- Take the texture nammed "GlobalEnvTest.dds", and copy-paste it inside the texture folder of the repaint that you want to see shining.

4- Rename that DDS file "Env.dds".

5- Start your sim

WOW
Awesome shot, Stephane.

Stunning

It may be "just one" but what a one! Great screen.

Thanks a lot

I have to admit that I really love the shot I made, so much that it has now become my new desktop wallpaper.  8-)

WOW
Awesome shot, Stephane.

What he said.

Would it be possible to get an HR?
