Awesome work Alex, thank you very much to all involved, really appreciated.


Take care and be safe.


Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

Awesome work Alex, thank you very much to all involved, really appreciated.

Thanks a lot Pete!
Glad you liked it.

In the first post - an update for meshes was added, where lodes were fixed and added.

And Happy New Year everyone!

Great rework Bison! I love this plane 
Are these improvements already on BAT?

[Vampire_pilot]

No and as it looks, this may need a bit of extra work, mainly because of the cod files.
It will be in the next package.

Hello everyone!

New version (1.24) C-135 pack in the first post.

While revising the previous version, I found inconsistencies between the types and locations of engines and engine DMs.
In this version, I tried to fix it.
I also carefully reviewed the location of the navigation and landing lights and tried to bring them in line with the historical ones.













I'm not sure if everything is correct (it is difficult to check so many varieties), so I will be grateful for your feedback.

In this version I also made small changes to the cockpits, but this is of your choice - you can use the cockpit from the previous version

With best wishes!

[enry711]

Thank you again Bison_M for your amazing works! The C-135 seems more and more promising every version

[xxxautoxxx]

Just keeps getting better !

Thnx Bison et al

[Bison_M]

Thanks. 
Glad you like it.

Best wishes!

Hi Bison

nice package!

Would you mind me pointing out a few flawed items though?

You built this pack from Vega's original classes, which have a fault that can crash FMB when you try to open the plane and assign a skin. The cause is in java, the entry is missing:

        com.maddox.rts.Property.set(class1, "PaintScheme", new PaintSchemeBMPar05());

It usually goes right under the "meshName" line.


Also, I found out you hashed the cod files. I was surprised that the game accepts this kind of double wrap at all.

These files are already hashed inside the cod folder and should be delivered as they are with mod pack, no additional hashing like classes. They only become completely inaccessible and indistinguishable that way.

Hello Vampire!
Thank you.
Unfortunately, I still don't understand anything about classes.
When I "built" this package, I took the original classes from Vega and added the rewritten classes from Azura for the cockpits.
I made only two changes - added (changed to) hierRC-135.him and replaced the water injection warning with the takeoff mode warning.
And that's all I have to say about that ...

Best wishes!
