Alb D.IIL Scheller Jasta 19

---

This skin set depicts Albatros D.II D.1729/16 which was flown with Jasta 19 by a pilot named Scheller, first name unknown. Scheller was credited with four victories, which makes his partial identification a bit more interesting. If you have more information about this plane or pilot, pleease let me know.

 

This is one of the later versions of the D.II with the central wing mounted radiator. The D.IIL designation is used in the game, but was not used in 1917 by the Germans.

 

The files attached include all files necessary to load and fly the Alb D.IIL, including hangar and loading screens.

 

Thanks to Gambit168 for making his skin set available as a template, to BortdaFarm for the original model, and to Southside Bucky for advice for improvements. I have included a cockpit adaptation of the Albatross D3 model from the First Eagles Expansion pack. The cockpit mod will not work unless you have the expansion pack. If you do not have the expansion pack yet, you can still use this skin. All you need to do is go into the AlbDIIL.ini file and modify the lines which now look like this:

 

//CockpitDataFile=AlbatrosDIIL_cockpit.ini

CockpitDataFile=AlbatrosD3_cockpit.ini

 

To look like this

 

CockpitDataFile=AlbatrosDIIL_cockpit.ini

//CockpitDataFile=AlbatrosD3_cockpit.ini

 

Alternatively you can download the full cockpit mod from CA.

 

The FM by Peter01 is intended for use without the April 08 patch.

 

In addition to the skins, there a sound file which was recorded from a running Mercedes engine. If you prefer the original sound, simply change the lines in the data.ini file which refer to "PropLoopMercedes" to "PropLoop".

 

As usual, place the skin folder in the AlbDIIL folder and select it in the loadout screen to fly the skin.

 

This skin set is part of a series presented to acknowledge the dedication and continuing hard work of Peter01 who has given us outstanding flight models for so many other aircraft for First Eagles. Without his work, this model and many others would be just pretty pictures.
