V3 has no problem.             was:   I Cannot repair V1 with it. 
Progress is made.    Release is possible of two slots for 412:   old mapping and new mapping.   

Plane.properties:

I-180N-2          I-180, 1938  early
I-180               I-180, 1940  new3D

The solution works presently in my game 412.2 SAS 5.3 heavily modded.     Sorting out a package remains.
Option 1:  you permit I post this solution for others.
Option 2:  the project ends.

Please read pages 15 and 16 of the I-180 discussion

Showed all lines for air-ini.
There is also a spare class I_180NEW.
Which, if desired, can be written as:
  (if the mod I-180 (3D I-185) from Skipper is installed)

Code: [Select]

I-180NEW          air.I_180NEW 1                        NOINFO  r01   SUMMER
If the mod I-180 (3D I-185) from Skipper is not installed, then the entry in the air-ini can be like this:

Code: [Select]

I-180             air.I_180NEW 1                        NOINFO  r01   SUMMER
But I did not register this class in my air-ini in patch 4.12.2.
Since the existing classes for the I-180 mod
(option I_180-V3.0 with new cockpit and nice 3D)
fully cover the historical test models of this aircraft.

Code: [Select]

Important!
Mod I-180 from Skipper (3D I-185) exists in two versions:
for patch 4.10(4.09) and later patches 4.12++.

Thank you dear friend. I really appreciate your work. I did try I_180NEW in the past and the "three engines mod" did worked in my 412.
I am simple investigator looking for two planes. I do not speek Russian, so this was a challenge.
With your help I found the second plane by Dimon. Thank you both very much.

My goal was to salvage all the skins made everywhere. I see there is a new one, it looks great.
I will follow your discussion when time permits.
Weekend is over and must resume my activities.

Thanks again. BoB

PS: I also did in the past the 'rename the skin file trick'. That 'trick' screw the weapons and plane properties text files,
              so I reverted instead of spending time correcting texts. ( I-180             air.I_180NEW 1 ... )
PPS:          ...may have a look at skipper's I-185 in the future: I understand the spare slot and rename.
