First Parasol's, now a few more monoplanes for the early war period Morane-Saulnier Type H Pfalz E.I (licence built Type H with some changes) Thanks again to v. Deutschmark (skins) & by peter01 (FM) for their amazing work. Get 'em at CombatAce

Something Italian this time: I'll keep posting progress shots on my site as I go.

This was mentioned over in the Thirdwire forum re the Pfalz E.III and E.IIIAO As released the tracers a slightly higher than the gunsight (peronal preference - I find it easier to aim). If you want them right in the cross-hair you'll need to make the following changes in the _data.ini [FlightControl] StallSpeed=16.75 CruiseSpeed=32.18 ClimbSpeed=30.55 CornerSpeed=28.59 MaxG=3.50 MaxSpeedSL=34.76 MachLimit=0.16 PitchDamper=0.60 RollDamper=0.00 YawDamper=0.00 GunBoresightAngle=-1.0 <---- add this line [internalGun1] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=7.92MM_SPANDAU_LMG08/15 InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN GunGroup=1 MuzzlePosition=0.0,1.65,0.16 LightPosition=0.0,1.65,0.16 AimAngles=0.0,0.0 ,0.0 <----- change to this 0.0,-1.0,0.0 MaxAmmo=400 EjectShells=TRUE EjectPosition=0.00,0.85,0.21 EjectVelocity=-1.6,0.0,0.0 MinExtentPosition=0.17,1.66,0.14 MaxExtentPosition=0.12,0.63,0.23 GunFireAnimationID=8 Synchronized=TRUE

That's an ugly little spud. I may have to add it to the list I've been a fan of the Camel since I was a kid so having that in-game is great.

No worries Bucky, you're the reason we ended up with 6 variants rather than just 1 (or at least 3). Thanks for all the comments guys. Glad you like them.

Thanks. Good catch. I'll fix those and update the pack. Edit to add:both packs have been corrected and updated

Here they are. After a lot of work by the team, I'm proud to announce the release of the Morane-Saulnier Type L/Pfalz E.III Packs Available at CombatAce as soon as the upload is done. A huge thanks v. Deutschmark (skins) & peter01 (FM) Each pack contains three variants: Fighter Observation (O) Two-seater, rear gun Armed Observation (AO) Two-seater, forward firing & rear guns *Note the FM"s for the Two-seaters should be considered Beta's. I did some minor tweaks of peter01's work for the initial release. Final ones will be forthcoming soon. All aircraft are good for both Normal & Hard FM's & all are equipped for ground attack. Skinners - included is a set of base templates for you guys to use. All aircraft use the same mapping for the major components so skins are fully interchangeable. More skins soon from v. Deutschmark Have fun with them. Cheers Laton

Early war flyers should be having a bit of fun in the next few days.......

Hi guys, I'm testing the waters with the other modders out there about the idea of making and distributing a "Parts Pack" of 3dmax files for download. Along the lines of wheels, guns, engines, props, crew. All mapped and ready to go. Just to make thing progress a bit faster in the modelling stage. Hopefully it will encourage new modellers to get involved if they can use "off-the-shelf' parts for their first few models. A few issues about recognising the original builder in a readme file will need to be sorted but I don't think that there is anything insurmountable. Any interest?

Bucky, good catch. Some research indicates that: (takes breath) the Pfalz E.III was the armed version of the Pfalz E.II which was in turn the up-engined version of the Pfalz A.1 which was the licence built Type L. Hence a Pfalz E.III is in the works with a single Spandau in place of the Vickers. Which makes for some interesting dogfights

And a few more. This is a place-holder skin so I could check mapping for errors in-game (and found a few :blush2: ), probably won't be part of the release.

Bucky, Fine idea, I'll do that modification once the Type L is released

Progress: Mapping is pretty much done. and the first set has gone off to v. Deutschmark peter01 (author of the revised Fokker E.III/E.IV etc FM's) has kindly agreed to take a crack at the FM as soon as I sort out the boxes/collision points and get a few details for him. Damage nodes up after that.

I have to say its something I hadn't got around to thinking about - but I don't see why not. Putting the deflectors themselves on is a pretty simple job.

Coming along - I'g got to add rigging around the tail and adjust the pit area a little. Long weekend coming up so I'll be trying to get it mapped. The prop shown is a place holder - thats now been replaced with one of the correct shape & size.

Hi guys, Next up from me - one of the single seat "parasol" fighters for you early-war types Cheers edit to add: v. Deutschmark will be supplying skins for this one as well.
