This is an experimental uniform modification for pilot/copilot character. The stock 3D model is used (Female_Casual and Male_Casual), so the jacket can not be zipped (need to fully change human model mesh and it's still outside my capability).
List of uniform models:
- Norsk Luftambulanse (Male)
- Norsk Luftambulanse (Female)
- French Gendarmerie Choucas 74 (Male)
- French Gendarmerie Choucas 74 (Female)
- French Sécurité Civile Dragon 74 (Male)
- French Sécurité Civile Dragon 74 (Female)
- German Bundeswehr SAR, Orange Fliegerkombi (Male)
- German Bundeswehr SAR, Orange Fliegerkombi (Female)
- German Bundeswehr SAR, Green Fliegerkombi (Male)
- German Bundeswehr SAR, Green Fliegerkombi (Female)
- ADAC Luftrettung (Male)
- ADAC Luftrettung (Female)
- Flight Sim Break SAR, fictional (Male)
- Flight Sim Break SAR, fictional (Female)
- Canadian Air Force SAR, Orange (Male)
- Canadian Air Force SAR, Orange (Female)
- Canadian Air Force SAR, Green (Male)
- Canadian Air Force SAR, Green (Female)
Not only the Albedo, I alter the Comp and Normal map but it's not perfect since I do it manually inside Photoshop. Also due to the stock UV Unwrapping sizing, even with 4K texture the patches is somewhat blurred, even though I use a good image source. Using too high resolution won't do any good since it's just eating away precious VRAM so I set it at 2K.
Best used with HPG H135 add-on helicopter and Norsk Luftambulanse livery already included. New payware H145 also works well with this model. Other liveries can be found inside flightsim.to. Hope you all like it ;)
Next step is creating a whole new 3D model mesh with animation and peripherals (Helmet, NVG, etc). When? I don't know yet since this is my spare time project and I still need to learn Blender :) If any of you want to help feel free to DM my Discord or mention me in HPG Discord channel.
Installation:
Simply extract the compressed file and copy the whole folder into Community folder.
(please re-check that there are two *.json files and SimObjects folder inside the main folder, and NOT double similar named folder after extracting, e.g : sukagalihsim-character-xxxxx/sukagalihsim-character-xxxxx because sim won't recognise this mod).
To uninstall this mod simply delete whole folder from Community.
Note: I strongly advise you to update the package to newest version, and just leave the v0.1 alone in the 'net until someone, somehow, found it again.
A realy nice MOD. I like it very well.
Tanks a lot.

How do I use it? I mean, how do I select which "character" I wanna use?

Hi, you can use it by going into Settings - General - Misc. There will be a pilot and copilot selection menu. You can choose them there

Is this good for H145 too?
3 years ago
Yup, but only for pilot. In 135 it's only copilot. A problem with SU5, nothing to do with this/other/default character packs and 135/145

Sorry - just one more enquiry. Could the uniforms be turned into "liveries", for others to generate new ones for different countries? Just a thought, so please forgive my ignorance.

Like a paint kit? It could be done, I can make a tutorial on how to do this sometimes in the future

can these be used in other aircraft? And would it be possible to put a co-pilot in the pilot's seat to improve the realism of external screen captures?
3 years ago
Of course these character could be used in other aircraft. Maybe it need another addon or some sort to make it appear on the seat. I haven't searched for a mod like that because I fly H135 most of the time, but I think I saw one in this site.
For H135 there's still a problem about making the pilot appear after MSFS update. Dave is still looking into it, unfortunately I can't do anything because enabling/disabling character is something that is written inside aircraft's code

Thank you for creating and sharing. I'm not sure what you mean exactly by "Next step is implementing this to male character and make it an extra model", but I would be happy to see the pilot on the right seat again. Maybe you can help to bring the pilot back into the cockpit.

Thanks for checking this out! What I mean by that is I'll implement this uniform to the male character, then changing the file structure so it'll appear as new characters not overwriting the stock one. Also I can't do anything about the pilot since it's something only Dave can do from dev side
