Title: P11c (P24F, G) weathered Hellenic Airforce skin
Post by: cgagan on December 31, 2011, 03:30:39 AM

Hi everybody,
I just noticed (after years of playing IL2... :-[) that the skins for the P11c fit the P24s (a greatly needed old mod, I believe by Ranwers). So, my request is, could any of our resident talented skinners produce a weathered skin for the RHAF (Royal Hellenic Airforce) in 1940? In M4T there is an old skin by Agracier. Many thanks in advance, Happy New Year!!!! 8)

OK, here are two pics with Agracier's skin and another one I don't remember where I got it from...

I found the original file I made those years ago. It was still layered so I added a few more extra layers of weathering stuff ... exhaust, and muster ... things like that. The paintscheme and numbering is still the same ... but at least it looks a bit more worn ...

And while talking about the P-24. I re-installed it in DBW and it works fine and all, except for that old classic bug, when you go to select the plane in FMB and wish to assign a skin or assign yourself as player - then the FMB menu sort of halfway dissappears and the game needs to be rebooted. Was there ever any fix for that? I know early 109's and Spits had the same thing, but it seems to be fixed in DBW ... How about the P-24?

Many thanks for the New Year's gift! Always obliged! Funny thing with the P24 you mention, I have no problems whatsoever flying it either in FMB or QMB, in both DBW1.6 and SAS ModAct 3.6 setups... Happy New Year again,  8)

Oh, I can fly it with no problems either ... in QMB at any rate. But in FMB it gives the problem. You need to select another plane as your own, then afterwards change it back to the P-24, but without choosing any skins for your wing men ...

Sweet skin. Where can one find the P24 mod these days?

No idea. If someone has uploading space available at some free d/l site, he can pm me and I can send him a copy of the mod

Here's a copy of the one i have installed, it is from several years ago but still works on my DBW, except for the FMB thing described above. It is quite a large sized install - more than 100mb ... but there are quite a few versions that are triggered by nationality apparently. A jpg is in the install which shows their appearance.

Hello,
and maybe somebody knows, how to make a stationary P-24 in DBW 1.7, because Stationary Planes Mod 1.6 (Epervier) doesn't work for this P-24?
