Anyone know where the source of these sketches come from?
>>544372213gekoloniseerd or however it's spelledYou've probably seen the drawing of Delphnius #2 on the RU wiki.Seeing as how both drawings call the bottom view 'Under", and seeing as how the signature is probably that of an artist that speaks a language with an alphabet,I am compelled to guess that these drawings are fanart from a Slavic/non-native-Anglophone fan.

>>544386946ACE COMBAT 3 REMAKE TOMORROW TRUST
the link for the pre-patched Ace Combat 3 by Project Nemo is brokenbest replacement I could findhttps://retrogametalk.com/repository/psx-iso/ace-combat-3-electrosphere-english-patched-2/
>>544387184trust the plan Qaces
>>544379951>Only appeared in one game as a enemy NPC but never playable.
>>544387184I'd settle for a simple HD 60FPS remaster of AC3, since remakes tend to run the risk of losing some aspects of the art direction in the transition. You can look at MGS Delta and the new Halo CE to see what I mean.

>>544405251Yeah that level gets you a few times from the opening of the tunnel being to dark to the surprise bitches for the base attack.If you crash in the final part of the tunnel the the crash cam goes out of bounds and you can see most of the level map from the outside.
>>544372213>>544378717Nope. These sketches most likely belong to Atsushi Takeuchi, an art designer for AC3 Electrosphere. The 'font' he uses to write out Delphinus is the same as this non-AC3 work he did, here.
>>544409232The R series shares design elements with the MalevolenceWell thats awesome.

>>544441051Yes a plen
Looking at those recent videos of planes flying inside the storm, well that be a cool place to have a final boss fight in.
>>544456090Oh? we have some for this hurricane posted? I've watched a few from an earlier one this season but haven't seen any for today hurricane.
this nigga is real now
>>544459248She's been real for many many years.
>>544456661Well the video was posted recently so I assumed it was recent too but now that you mention it I guess I didn't bother to check when it was taken.
>>544456661It feels like 'inside the eye of the storm' footage has become a regular occurrence nowadays. https://youtu.be/nSo6WW7bb4U?si=-iPG9kIbjc118niD
>>544462481I found one posted 18 hours ago on the AP's YT channel. The views from the P-3 its still very amazing & impressive to see.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_LIuonLTiQLonger versionhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGftISJruFYDon't forget your viewing music set it to loophttps://youtu.be/Blb2N-798xIOP did a good job in song selection today it fits nicely with the video.Just think last night one of them was flying into it . So that crew got to see look up and see a clear sea of stars from inside the eye of the hurricane.
Thought I had missed this shot but got it exactly as I wanted it.
>>544471561She was infinity I wonder if they'll ever put her back in? Being a homegrown JP plane should make it easy as ok you can use her again.
>>544472240Hopefully. I'm sure PA is itching to have it and GCAP for the new game.
>>544471561Why's the cockpit so big?
>>544484203Looks like the wso seat is being taken up by equipment of some kind.
>>544401504just give me the ps1 version but with wide screen support i dont even care at this point
>>544415090Oh, shit, that IS the Malevolence isn't it?
>>544484203Is the cockpit big or is the plane small?
>>544494337Kind of both really.

The audio crunchiness of the latest SOUNDS IN THE COCKPIT is period-appropriate to all of the Gulf War footage (and, anachronistically, the 2003 Invasion of Iraq footage) we've had seared into our minds

>>544502024PC port any day now.
>>544502024it's so bizarre that gt7 can have "so much support" while simultaneously adding so little that even basic discourse of it can't get supported at all.
>>544518013i read an article about the development of gran turismo games recentlykaz said he slept under his desk most of the time and only left the office about 4 times a year until they finished developing GT1look at kaz now - whenever you see him, he's jerking off at some rich people car event like concours d'elegancehe doesn't care about gran turismo anymore
>>544518673Dude made it, why even bother with the games at that point? It's sad, but that's how it is with people like him. Though I do wonder if people at PA have that same euphoric "I made it Mom" mindset when aerospace companies like BAE invited them to their hangars.
>>544519473why bother indeed...
>>544506797The last major war before that game was made was the Gulf War so its completely expected it works as intended.>Gulf War footage we've had seared into our mindsA little modding and some added VHS effects allows you to see it even in AC7
>>544519473The difference with Kono and Kaz is that Kono isn't attending Epstein parties with Lockheed Martin executives to talk to them about bringing the X-02 to life as some sort of vanity project. Looking at you, Vision Gran Turismo.
>>544520770Or without mods just the right skin, mission, and viewpoint to create the same feel.
>>544520770Should add night vision view with a barrage of tracers from anti-aircraft guns lighting up everything.
>>544521832If you have the F-117 add on mod you could do that with the intro to Last Hope.

>>544551992Yeah, AMRAAM VDFR. It was only a prototype though.
>>544553486>It was only a prototype thoughShame, seems like it'd probably be useful.
>>544518673There is still an undeniable quality to Gran TurismoGT Sport still felt like a quality experience whatever you'd be doing in the game, and GT7's attention to detail still very much sets it apart in terms of identityWhat GT is lacking is proper game designers to bring back the game to actually being fun, and replayable, making use of its weird and varied content in terms of cars it has now.
I'm feeling it, this TGA is it.
>>544522216Last Cope
>>544564709lollmao, even
>>544569086This time for sure...
You just know those pilots had to love filming for this.
in awe of the size of this lad
>>544591163Now you see why Tomcat could only mount four on her belly.
I HAVE SO FAR TO GO
>>544592039The real question is why could it only mount 4 sparrows in it's belly despite there being space for at least like 6.
>>544607473Those aren't smaller missiles either she couldn't fit anymore. Just like the phoenix 6 is the limit 4 in belly with 2 more on the outside.
So umm when did duckstation get a freecam function?
Its a little hard to use half the time when you turn it on it wants to fly off until you hit reset enough for it to stay in place.If you move the camera in a way to look at part of the plane that isn't rendered you get this, Notice how the A-4 looks like its missing part of itself
But if you just move the camera to a new spot where everything is rendered its not bad as the camera now locks in the new place you put it.
And lets you take shots you couldn't do in 1 or 2 due to you have no camera functions till 3If this function has been in for a while well I haven't set any hotkeys in a long time
Yeah it does not like the camera being in places it isn't supposed to be at. But it is fun to mess around with it. However these maps are so small in how much they render at any time you exit out in no time and can't get back until you reset the camera.
>>544608729I would consider a Sparrow smaller than a Phoenix and not by just a little.
>>544607473>>544616410The Sparrow has half the mass, and a bit over half the diameter of the Phoenix, but the total wingspan is only 3.5 inches smaller, and because the missiles sit differently on the plane the Sparrow is actually wider in practice. This is why they had to be staggered, instead of sitting side by side like the Phoenixes.
>>544610063 we can finally take decent screenshots of AC2's planes and scenery. Hell AC3 as well. I always thought this would be a mod, not an emulator thing.
>>544616410She's skinnier but still a large missile
>>544634927Word of advice map the freecam to your keyboard not your controller. The controller likes to send the camera off at full speed as soon as you let it loose.Tried out 1 the game works different the entire plane is rendered no matter how you look at it. Where as AC 2 is only what you see from the default camera position is rendered everything else is invisible. So 2 won't work out as well as you want it too.I have learned some things about 1 some I already knew since the 90's like your plane has no landing gear. But I didn't know the power circles aren't connected to the overlay they sit in a fixed spot in the world. Just like the shoot down smoke isn't connected to the plane you shot down its a trick. Its really a flat image that appears at the players nose.
>>544650410Plane selection with a different view
Now I can get a good look at the missiles they used in 1. Odd looking missile they are
Or if you want you can change your FOV while in 3rd person for a new feel on the game.
>>544621446>>544647673I think semi actives look better than active radar missiles, doubt they perform better but they had their charm.
>>544610063How do I use this freecam? There were some things in Armored Core 1 I would've liked to have taken a look from another perspective.
>>544664294Settings>Hotkeys scroll down you'll see a section called freecam you will need to assign keys to itAgain do not use the controller for this use the keyboard for freecam and don't use the number pad as some of those keys are already preset to controller settings use any part of the keyboard you haven't or is already mapped.This mode can be used while the game is playing or paused it won't matter letting you make a shot while playing from a different viewpoint.
>>544665418I might finally be able to see those power armor dudes in 1.
Candy plane
Trying out the freecam on 3.....its even more picky and strange than how 2 behaved. They had to do a lot of tricks to make these games look as good as they did with the hardware they had to work with.Tried to move the camera around to get a shot of me with the transport this happened
But I was able to get Rena in the pic with Aurora with just minimal issues to Aurora engines
You can do something with it but to get shots you want will require some practice on how the freecam interacts with the game.
But hey you can do those replays shots at will now.Did not know this but when you pause the game the track target and right stick camera movement still works so you might be able to use that in trying to see what your looking for.
Disconnecting the camera during replay gives some better shots but like replay its going to be a bit random in how well this works.
Freecam in 3 is fun but going to be a bit limited in what you can do due to how the game was made. But as you find what does and doesn't work you can do fun stuffLike plane booty shots
But I did discover something that is very funWhat if I move the camera near the nose of the plane?I haven't tried it yet but think about doing Tunnel Vision with the camera parked on your planes nose like this.
what if the planes had legs
>>544676751a new age is upon us.AC3bros can't stop winningI'll be playing around with this free cam very soon

>>544684721Given the games 90's cyberpunk style and theme........That would have worked out just fine and been in tone with the game itself
>>544679834Look forward to seeing what you can do
>>544404637> Create something futuristic> "Why?"> Many years later> "Ahead of it's time!"Unironically, many such cases
>>544530986Say that again
>>544708845Your not wrong usually its a case of the tech needed to make such a design useful is many decades into the future and might not even exist beyond its most basic of forms if at all.Take Tail sitters a dead end tech tree for planes in the past until the 2020's when you learn a tail sitter is a great design for drones Or of course the good old YB-49. Built 4 decades before its design was needed
AC 7 could've used a couple more DLCs
>>544716075Yes it could have

>>544695408My first test is in
>>544773703I've been meaning to take a screenie like this since January when I asked grok to generate some aerial shots. Just needed a free cam and hopefully minimal glitching.

I need more lasers.

That Lancaster totally had that F-14 on it's sights.

>>544844919What are they saying?
Did anyone post about the Hornet thing that happened the other day?
>>544847770What Hornet thing? Another crash?
>>544852105Yeah, the one where they lost a Hornet and also some helicopter if memory serves me right.
The next game will include the F-100 because the devs want to please me specifically.
>>544832664My screenies were taken by adjusting the free camera and then pressing R3 so world doesnt vanish altogether. But mostly it's just the sun being picky about which camera angles are ok.About my resolution I use 585x480 which is the original for the menu screens but it's still higher than whatever the mission themselves use.

>>544919453Room's open, get in.
I like naval planes more than I do normal ones.
The Falken's alright but the Addler's where it's at and I'm saddened being cut meant it didn't earn a particularly iconic place in the franchise.
>>544955108Its to bad it didn't make it would have been fun to use in 5. It could show up in 8 we have a lot of missing ADF planes after all.
all this drone shit
Tried to get the camera set between the two cockpits but it just won't do it this was the best I could get.
Fixing the camera to a new point on your plane has odd things happen to everything in the game. Notice how far apart the missile is from its smoke trail.
Buddies why is the 103 looking at me like that?
>>544961525Something's off with Anduril but I'm not sure if it's me being biased.
While messing around with the freecam I noticed that this could be flown into. Never really paid it any attention until now but I had to fly under it.
>>544964159I don't make a habit of trusting arms companies that name themselves for Lord of the Rings. Tolkien would've kicked their asses.
>>544968998The only thing left is some Silicon Valley schmuck calling their new defense company Sauron or Maiar or something.

I want to play AC7 multiplayer with my ultrawide triple monitor setup, but there is literally zero data about this. Does anybody here not give a shit about getting banned in multiplayer? I'd love if somebody could patch their AC7 with Steamless and try to get into multiplayer to see what happens. Anybody have experience with this? The ultrawide fix full blown modifies the .exe and does shit that anti-cheat normally doesn't like, but like I said there's nothing online about this whatsoever so I have no clue. No reports of successfully playing multiplayer and also no reports of getting banned.
>>545148810Update: multiplayer works with the ultrawide patch perfectly
>>545148810I don't think AC7 even has anticheat, and if it does it's not very strict.
>>545148810allegedly you used to get banned for using FOV cheats in multiplayerbut blatant cheaters are on multiplayer every day, there was no real anticheat and there were only ban lists that were manually done by community moderators (which, isn't a thing anymore)

>>545156027>>545159554The last time Bamco publically banned anyone was years ago, and even then serial cheaters were back within a day after each ban list update via the family sharing feature.

>>544370886Ace Combat 3 has stuck with me in ways the other games have not

Revamped website with even more hammering in of the overarching Strangereal canon incl. detailed explanations of AC3 and its locations on the current official map really make me think we're getting AC8 news this year. I'm injecting pure hopium into my veins rn.
