I don't intend to cyber-ly bully anyone, but I need to write this. I was just informed that this kid, Spencer Lever, who has been stealing not just mine but others work... had uploaded my Hornet cockpit to http://www.3dcadbrowser.com/, which is sort of like Turbosquid where people can buy your models. This dude has been pretty brazen in his fascination with my model and converting it for sale or use in DCS (as DCS: F18C), or to be used with online stunt teams and the like. What's more annoying is that he had asked me quite a while to go to help him learn 3D modeling, as all he knew how to do at the time was modify existing models. With that knowledge and knowing that he has a penchant for taking other peoples' material, I did a quick search with his name and the website to see what else he might have "borrowed' from others. If anyone recognizes these models or happens to know the authors, PLEASE let me know so I can get them removed from the site!

He apparently took this guys money to do a mod for DCS, Jim Blim. He apparently tried to sell his work as well: I know he's also stolen a Hawk model, but I can't find any evidence of that anymore (was on his Facebook page). Anywho, there's not a whole lot that can be done to stop him. But I will spread the word to ensure other modelers or potential "customers" don't get burned by him. Also, if you're a modeler, try as best you can to keep tabs on your work (nearly impossible, to be sure). An awesome kid on Facebook informed me of this particular event. Jamal Ingram

Hehe, *waves to Sara* Looks like we had similar lines of thinking: Heya 747-Fan, Would you mind posting pics of the textures that are blurry? I think I may have a couple settings for you to try, ie. MipBias or changing the Image_Quality setting under Graphics. Jamal

Hello all, and Sara! My name is Jamal. i worked on the VC and a little bit of the exterior of the model. I had posted these settings on the coolsky forum for people suffering from screen flickering (or artifacting, same thing), but it "may" also help with blurry textures. Here are MY settings and the links I derived the information from. Some of these settings may need to be added to your FSX.CFG.

If anyone has any questions, please let me know, and I'll try my best to answer them. If this helps resolve your issues, or not, please let me know! Thank you, Jamal
