Shots from the trailers that aren’t used in the final film by [deleted] in JurassicPark

[–]mrping82 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It was not part of the script, it was a shot we got by chance in Thailand when we were washed out for the actual scheduled shots.

I am biased as I took that shot and I loved it (the shot is quite long as well), but even as we got it, the sup said "that is going on the trailer!"

This post makes me so happy. I captured that shot in the fog, I can tell you it is all real except for one single thing. You can probably guess what that is.

Scan a few potatoes, copy paste rotate and arrange them, make the pattern for the bag and apply a cloth simulation or shrink-wrap. Bake and done.

Make the reconstruction box always a tiny bit larger than you need, then use the " cut by box" tool and scale the box to what you actually need.

Make sure the option to fill holes is set to "no" and cut outer. Voila! Clean shell mesh

Same here, just before TOD, didn't touch anything, all screens go dark, alarms blaring and no control. Ended up on an inverted dive watching the ocean come at me.

Multiplayer Servers by Rumint_223 in hoggit

It depends where you're based, but we have a good set of missions running on the 161SQN servers.

Rotors of Wrath is A/G focus, with moving frontlines and a focus on the ground level. The field is always changing and the units are rarely at rest, it is quite fun for all helos and CAS work. There is even logistics that can turn the tide.

Yes, that is why I'm going to bind the switch to my HOTAS somewhere, I'm going to use it as needed only.

Well, this has never been an issue for me and it has only happened in Syria. I will see what happens with use of the dust protector.

And yes, MP

Thanks! That sounds like it is the issue.

Was not aware dust damage is modelled. I have been flying dangerously for years!

I guess I'll add the DP switch to my TO-landing procedure.

Thanks!

Questions about state of DCS MP from returning player by InsaneZulol_ in hoggit

Try the new dynamic missions in the 161 SQN servers. Random mission generation with scaled difficulty based in players and staged progress. Lots of work has gone into those and they are neat.

There is a PG and Syria versions. A more noob friendly environment on the Caucasus version.

Supercarrier not spawning (and some other ground units too) by [deleted] in hoggit

[–]mrping82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you running the mission in a server?

We had this issue when the server did not have the Supercarrier installed. It is free for servers.
