Why do you think I keep putting Hot Dog Stands on all my terrains!!!???? IIRC on the MidWest USA terrain, there are even Hangar 'Hos (and their workplace)

If he's like the rest of us, I'd say pretty messed up! I'm actually using these right now. I am QUITE impressed with the work. Thanks Geary!

Happy Birthday USA!!!

no, I didn't. Email been the same for 20 years! It's all good, brother! Just finished downloading, and now moving the exe to 2 different externals for archiving!!

DAMN!! I plugged in the code I have (BLC 29) as I'd lost almost everything, email wise, in the December 2018 HD crash and it won't take it bummer. oh well, the Mrs said I could do it, so I am!

excellent work Russ. As said, don't rush through it! Fix whatever you think needs fixing; we ain't in not rush! my plan, once I have the base template, is a generic NM skin. Some of our other painters are FAR better than I for the three-tone SEA post 63 skins! (I'll be glad to make all the decals, though) If you need some reference books, I've a couple in the Library!

Gents, to see if it's a good price, worthy of spending our hard earned cash, just add up the cost fo the 5 games, 2 expansion packs and 29 DLCs Number don't lie, and I'm getting mine. I'll find 100 bucks somewhere

Exactly my thoughts ... as I said in the other thread, having only the original exes, and then having to scramble to find the patches to bring it current, I'd decieded to repurchase the ENTIRE series again. Now this comes out; and yes I'm probably even more broke-ass then most. But I will be finding the 100 bucks and investing it in this. This not only saves time, but overall saves a substantial bit of coin. It's a great bargin, and well worth it. IMHO

I'll wager you'll find that's true for a boatload of ships, too. (pun intended!!)

yawn... here we go again...

Still, I believe a worthwhile investment. After having had an HD crash last December, and having to rebuild from the original release exes, and then running around like a lunatic trying to collect all the patches, finding out you've lost a few DLC exes... yeah, 100 bucks US; be good to have the whole set archived for such emergencies

freeking hilarious!! Looks like a Meteor and Airacobra had a baby! definately be a post-44 bird, given jet tech of the day.

when I ran the animations in Mue's Viewer, it seemed REALLY odd the gears each had their own. this is great Russ!! Many thanks! I also found hiding in my KAW mods folder, Fast Cargo's (uncompleted) F-84B/C Thunderjets from 2010. Seem like they just need skinning & FM work

anyone else notice the TBD's parked on the US carrier? Even if only CGI might be the first time they've shown up in film since 1941's "Dive Bomber" (find it if you've never seen it -- it's in COLOR!!)

that did the trick. like I said, i don't know how to work this thing!! Russ I'll send the whole thing along to you in a day or so thanks!

View File SF2 P-47N Thunderbolt 36th FBS, KAW "What If" Skin Pack SF2 P-47N Thunderbolt 36th FBS, KAW "What If" Skins Pack 6/22/2019 -For SF2, (Full 5 Merged Reccomended)- This is a 'What If' skin for the P-47N Thunderbolt by RussoUK. It represents the 36th FBS, 51st FG if said unit had been equipped with Jugs during the Korean War. It is to be applies to V.2 of Russ's Jug. If you don't have it, You can find Version 2.0 of Russ' P-47N at the following URL: https://combatace.com/files/file/13202-p-47n-157z/ The aircraft is painted in "silver lacquer" and carries the same style of tail markings as seen on their Real Life (tm) F-80C Shooting Stars used in Korea. All new serial and buzz number decals were created. The serials, while generic in nature, are correct for the late model P-47Ns. Decal randomization is TRUE. Let it be known that the SF2 Date Switch is =NOT= used on this skin*. A new more "chewed up looking" damage tga is also included. When in-game, on the Loadout Screen's Skin Selection Dropdown window, you'll see: 36th FBS (What-If, KAW 1950) Remember, you'll have to change the skin for all members in your flight. Once upon a time, there was a 1stGen version of this aircraft/skin that I did (mid 2000s???) but it dosen't seem to exist in the CA downloads anymore. So, this is a full replacement. If any of you End Users (tm) still have it, you are instructed to delete both the original skin and decals. As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. Might want to give the "Notes & Other Nonsense" section a once over, as well! :) *=see 'Notes' for information on how to create a post-war F-47N Happy Landings!

good enough! btw, I reinstalled Max 2009, and the max file I have may not be the full aircraft. Only parts show up. Mind you, I can barely work it enough to OPEN the file!! (yah, I suck at that!!)

there's no drag chutes on any stock 3W aircraft. So... there you go ** ripple and interval are modeled (extract and look at the cockpit ini) for the "standard" Hun (no year suffix) it's: [CockpitData] Directory=cockpit HUDMode=CAGED,AA,AG RippleQuantity=1,2,4,6,8,10 RippleInterval=60,100,140 probably the same for the A, C and other Ds Check you key binding assignments, as they are set in the Default.ini (in the /Controls folder). Below is off of mine: NEXT_RIPPLE_QUANTITY=JOYSTICK01_BUTTON08 PREV_RIPPLE_QUANTITY=SHIFT+RBRACKET NEXT_RIPPLE_INTERVAL=JOYSTICK01_BUTTON06 PREV_RIPPLE_INTERVAL=SHIFT+LBRACKET (CH 568 CombatStick) To change or at least check ... ----> Options --> Controls ** oddly, there IS a key bind for it. So, maybe it was planned at some point????

but it 's winter in Australia

tell me about it ...

I agree, weathering is the hardest. you know, you don't actually NEED to do the rivets ... think of the scale of the aircraft, the actual size of the rivet, and you'll figure out that beyond about 3 feet, you really wouldn't see them. (I've done that "scale check" on a real life P-47 and B-17, and trust me...all that really is visible is the dirt lines or divit shadows. as I'm sure the 25 isn't bump mapped ... well, you see where I'm going)

and there's Ural's around here someplace, too

and there's something wrong with the D-40 that Danial and I did?? the differences in the fin are so miniscule ... and why waste them on YAP??

Moana says ... I like this airplane (albeit actually post-war, 1946)
