Sweet! Nice job as always Raven - Thanks for the new Mk77....................Quaulity at its best! NIELS

I can not find the bmp or tga for The Mk77 fire bomb? Is there one? The HEX editior shows no such item? Thanks, NIELS

Yes please, by all means RAVEN bring your detailing to the Mk77..................Thank you Sir. NIELS

Just got version with skin. Svetlin posted the file made by Crab_02 & Sundowner. It is located in my previous question/request regarding the bmp/tga for the Mk77. No need to skin it Ravenclaw_007 unless its in the works with Pak 3, or you desire to do your 'magic' on it...................Thanks Wrench for following up though - much appreciated. Weaponspack 3 is looking fantastic! NIELS

Outstanding Svetlin! Been drivin me crazy for a couple days. Thanks also to Crab_02 & Sundowner......................Much appreciated. NIELS

Howdy ravenclaw_007, just wondering if you could do up a skin for the Mk77 fire bomb in this series? I know you are building wep pack 3 at present so I thought I'd throw in this request. The lod, and ini's are already present - I've searched for two days on and off and there is no bmp/tga associated with this weapon that I can find. Just wondering if you could do your magic with this weapon. Thanks - Hope all is well, NIELS

No color, no detail just a white bomb. Here are some pics. I've searched all my installs, downloads, and weapon packs - no luck? Thanks Wrench, NIELS

Fantastic detail on the 1000lb AN-65s!

Great info KB331..........................Now we finally know. Much appreciated! NIELS

Just read the fusing portions of the manual CrazyhorseB34 provided. Should have done some home work first prior to my previous input. It seems the tail fuse only configuration of the early fuse extender/daisy cutter bomb is totally feasible. Wow - didn't have any idea of the vast fusing methods of these weapons.

All I could find is that the 'early' version was a pipe or 20mm gun barrel welded to the fuse plug as mentioned in the Osprey A-1 book. Is it not possible the fuse was in the tail only? This seems it would negate the above ground detonation/max frag capability of the weapon but the other bombs have fuses installed in the pictures already - Not the 'Daisy Cutters'?. It seems from other pictures of WWII/Korea bomb fuses were installed in both tail and nose. I'm not a weapons guru but maybe this was done in case one fuse failed to arm? Maybe in the case of this early ext. method the tail fuse was all that was required to arm the bomb? Sorry can't find more info on the 'Early Daisy Cutter' - Again ravenclaw_007, your weapons pak's are superb! Thanks for your efforts and work. NIELS

These are AN-M64 500lb class. The statement above the picture only indicates 'Daisy Cutters' enabled above ground explosion. I haven't been able to find additional info regarding the fusing of these older bombs. I just finished a book on F-80 ops in Korea and it mentioned extended fusing of WWII bombs also. I think these must be left over's from that war? My guess would be a tail fuse and this odd looking pipe on the nose? Cruder than Nam era ext. fusing but still above ground explosion capability I guess. Sorry for the limited knowledge. NIELS Forgot the Osprey source..............Very good info for all aircraft and weapons. I forgot I had a copy of this book on my shelf. Thanks KJakker - Good find! NIELS

Outstanding work ravenclaw_007! Great to see development of WWII/Korea vintage weapons. If the 500lb series AN-M64 is in the works also, could we get/request a 'fuse extender' version for the 'SPAD'? Would be much appreciated Sir. Again.........Fantastic work on the weapons! Thanks, NIELS

Perfection/Detail at its BEST!...................Nice job.

BRAVO Mue!................BRAVO! Another outstanding tool for the series. Thank you NIELS

Can not wait for this little jewel.................Will be a fantastic addition to the WOV/SEA fight! Bring on the Dragonfly!

Been trying to get into FE2 - Got pretty much all updates/mods loaded. Having big time trouble with wingmen formations - My wingman keeps crashing into me - way too close!. Is there any working COMMDATA.INI and FORMATION.INI that work well together? I have the FORMATION.INI from quack74 but no commands to give to wingies. Also - Wingmen gyrate in all directions instead of flying level???? Is this an experience level issue or is there a fix? Thanks, NIELS

Just finished in-flight test vs ground start - Formation behaved much better. Guess I'm just spoiled with latter era wingmen behavior. Thanks again for all the feedback, much appreciated. NIELS

I have not tried starting in the air, I prefer to launch from the base for realistic/immersion. I'll give that a try and get back with results. Thanks to all, NIELS

Heres what was viewed while flying in front (outside view - no auto' P') of wingmen & flight #2....................Bee's following the leader????? Was performed with new/fresh install of FE2 and quack74's Acft data inis, & AIRCRAFTOBJECT.INI. Thanks again for your feedback - much appreciated. NIELS

OK I'll give that a try Geezer - have been taking off in 'auto P' to view from outside formation behavior. Hope this works - will follow up. Thanks much and appreciate your mods very much - Nice work! NIELS

Wished it had worked - I'll probably fool around a bit more with the ini's but getting tired of banging my head on this one. Thanks quack74
