Sure you can PM me. At the moment, we only have HMLA(T) 303 with the Z. So, as for now the art will be limited to that squadron.

Looks great!

My son and I recently got back into flying EECH MP over our LAN and the Viper is my son's favorite helicopter.

Looks good. Nice to see what's coming up.

On a side note - how difficult is it to create a cockpit? I've got some developer experience and was thinking of having a go at a Blackhawk cockpit to replace the Apache one that's used.

I've requested access to the source code, or at least I hope I've requested it right, but not got it yet.

Do you have LightWave or access to it?

I have been learning it on the fly with a lot of help from a friend..

A cockpit would be a challenge for a first time project..but,,,no reason not to try..

The problem I'm having with this one is,,no good 3 view drawings of the new Viper cockpit to work with...
The photos I've seen on this pit all seem to be different...

I've also been working on some animated helo wheels,,,

I'll see about getting some access to Lightwave. In the past I've used 3DSMax, and used ProEngineer at Uni when I was doing my degree, so it shouldn't be too hard to get my head round.

I've got ideas for improvements, but it'll be a steep learning curve and probably take quite a while.

I'd seen your rotating wheels a while ago - they look good. After seeing the Hind suspension, I was thinking it would be nice to have working suspension on a few other helos. Maybe steerable tail wheels too. Ah who knows, I could go on with lots of ideas.

Hey dfang you can answer me, whether it is at all possible to add more"slots" bmp textures in the cockpit Hokum?(check screen)
Is it even possible, and if so, how much time it may take? not much time, if it work for long hours? And what tools need to do this?

Is this a new Havoc cockpit in the pipeline?? Looks good if it is. I've been thinking of trying to make some cockpit improvements - just getting my head round the source code.

*********************************************************************************************************************************
Yes it can be done with a good amount of work,,,what textures do you want to install in those places?

You will need LightWave to make the panels,,then surface and texture them..

I'll take a look at that cockpit when I get time and let you know more about the difficulty involved...
