P-51 B/C repaints with various sight options
« on: October 29, 2010, 06:30:23 AM »

repeated messing around with this pit has led to a few variations based on historically used fitments. the choice is yours as to which to use ;)
they are in order i worked on them so later versions have a few improved textures.



an 'old' mod i originally released at AAA that i've tarted up a little. it uses some 1024 textures but tends to be more fps friendly than Freddy's version

installation- extract .rar and drop resulting folder into your mods folder


one request that came up when i did this was to fit a historically correct GCSII sight as fitted to RAF Mustang III's- well i've got halfway there by fitting a non functional K14 sight- non functional as in you have fixed reticle only ;)- i believe it would need java work to get a separate pit for the III- and it also needs some 3D work to get rid of the switch cover obscuring the radio compass and some reworking to get a more accurate GCS- removing 'crash pad' and replacing it with a rotary knob. If any of the 'gurus' wish to complete that feel free

THIS IS VERY MUCH A WIP
- if you use it it will replace all C models with the K14 sight :P

if you want to try it

edit- i've done a version equipped with raised raf reflector sight and internal mirror for both B and C. this was a common field mod in eto. the mirror was a standard fitment


this is an 'option' you can use by enabling/disabling this mod as necessary.

it contains a pov mod to match the raised spitIX sight and mirror meshes are p38 butchered by me, along with a host of heir edits and a corrected asi scale -so be prepared for possible conflicts with other mods that might affect these things

Avala- sight textures
1C orig meshes etc etc


edit2
yet another variation- this time fitting a standard N3B sight and iron sights rather than the ingame Lynn-3 sight which was fitted to early D models. as with RAF sight version pov is raised. i've moved the mirror up a bit to improve visibility for those without 6dof.
sight mesh is borrowed from Poncho's P-47 and retextured as have a few other little bits.
seems to work nicely with the new P-51A ;D

thanks for the replies guys 8)

working on the RAF mustang III a bit more- as a result of this thread
http://ultrapack.tuttovola.org/index.php/topic,2345.0.html



not perfect yet- mirror is 'borrowed' (Ranwers) meshes and not correct shape and the sight (Avala spitIX) is lower than pics show but as high as i can get it to keep reticle 'in view

bolox, do you know if there is a way to raise the reticle.  People have been complaining about this low reticle in the P-51B for years.  If you could raise it you would be a hero in P-51B world.  :)

yet another variation :P- this time with the correct factory equipment N-3B sight.
details in first post.

an early Xmas prezzy for those with really old rigs:- i messed about to see how small i could get this pit while still retaining as much detail as possible.
well 13mb seems to be about as far as i can go before it gets 'blurry'.
this uses some unusual size textures so it is somewhat 'experimental' :P

this is for C model only and has raf sights


and manual for MustangIII
