Nieport 24 Lewis v1.0 with 1 overhead Lewis and cockpit
 
Original N24 3D Model and clean skins by EmlD
FM by peter01
Ini file modification to N24_Lewis by Panama Red
29th Sqn. Skins and Decals by quack74
LeRhone9jb Sound by Nix
Testing by ojcar
 
This N24_Lewis was created so ojcar could use it in his FE2 Campaign Series.
 
The real RFC Nieuport 24 Lewis had a very short career on the Western Front before transfering to the Middle Eastern Front. Basicaly only one RFC squadron used it for any length of time on the Western Front, and that was the 29th Squadron from Nov 1917 to Feb 1918.
 
As a result, quack74 created this set of unique decals for all three flights of the RFC 29th Squadron. Included are two sets of skins, the default "dirty" set, and an alternate "clean" set for those who want a difference.
 
To install this package, do the following:
 
FE1:
Install the N24_Lewis folder to your
.../Aircrafts directory
Install LeRhone9jb.wav to Sounds directory
Install Gunsite01 into WeaponData.Dat
 
FE2:
Install the N24_Lewis folder to your
.../Aircrafts directory
Install N24_Lewis decals folder to your
.../Decals directory
Install LeRhone9jb.wav to Sounds directory
Install Gunsite01 folder into Weapons directory

Just a little rework of the previously uploaded MS.H in Russian markings, I have just tweaked the skins a little, and added decals instead of the pre printed insignia, just a personal preference.
I have included the sound files, and the decals needed for this aircraft.The only thing I would like to improve is the addition of a windscreen, as per the Pfalz EI , but that is beyond my abilities.
 
The only little Glitch I have encountered is the decal seems to show slightly on the wing tip, cant seem to solve that problem, but it isnt that bad anyhow. I tried to place the wing decals further inboard, but for some reason the Starboard wing doesnt accept this, but I dont think it looks too shabby.
 
just follow all the usual malarkey for installing to FE, or indeed just use the skins if you already have the A/C installed.
 
As I have said, this is just a tweak of the original skin, so all thanks to everyone who went before me in designing the A/C and for giving me the idea to tweak it !!!

A new Snipe

So you all have the wonderful F2B by the A-Team?
 
And the not least wonderful Peter01 FM for this bird?
 
Very well, I have tuned a little more the FM (more easy take off for the AI), and have added a virtual second Machine gun for the observer. You'll see only one Lewis (that's the way the model it's done), but be careful, because there are two Lewis firing at you (in the very same location). I also changed the POW in the cockpit, so it's much more easier firing the Vickers!
 
The original FM (F2Ba, the one without wing Lewis, historically more correct) is from a 275 Hp Falcon III engined, so I have decided to make both Falcon I (190Hp with only one Lewis) and Falcon II (220Hp) engined Bristols!!!!

So you all have the wonderful Pfalz DIII and DIIIa by the A-Team?
 
And the not least wonderful Peter01 FM for this bird?
 
Very well, I have tuned a little more the FM because I think it needed to be a little tuned down. The DIIIa in game was faster than an Albatros DVa (180Hp) (just the contrary to pilot
 
stories about it). No more!
The Pfalz D XII was the contrary case. It was a close competitor for the Fokker VII, but in game was slower than the old DIIIa, so it has a new FM as well.
I have made also an FM for the Roland DVIa, beacuse there is no Peter01 FM for this plane (I think so). It's fast and nimble, but doesn't climb very well. Probably needs more testing...
 
Besides, reading about the Mercedes DIII engine history I noticed that early Pfalz DIII had the Mercedes DIII engine and late Pfalz DIIIa had the Mercedes DIIIaü (180Hp), but this engine
 
was in service in March 1918 and the DIIIa were in the units in late 1917, so.....we were lacking an engine!
At the same time, Albatros DIII and DV were given the Mercedes DIIIa (170Hp), so I have made a 170 Hp Pfalz!

This is the last machine that Bort' built for 1st eagles that I'm aware of.
The S1 wasn't in the original upload because it hadn't been done untill
later, by which time the both of us had pretty much left the scene.
As Bortdafarms web page is long gone, I'm adding the S1 to the collection here at CombatACE.
