Hello all!
PA_Jeronimo enjoys his holiday now, but just before leaving he sent me some great engines for testing and fine-tuning. He also asked me to release them when I think they are ready for release.
So, here is something for you:
P-47 cowling and prop mod with detailed 3D engine:All UP3/DBW variants are included together with N and late D. P-47B now has correct engine geometry and cowl flaps, but skins are not yet adapted for it, so there is some skinning work to do. We hope to see some adapted P-47B templates, skins and default skins soon.
Download: http://koti.mbnet.fi/raukorpi/P-47_engine_prop.7zInstalling: Just unpack to your mod folder and make sure they load before your other P-47 mods. I tested in DBW, but I don't know any possible compatibility issues yet with any IL-2 version.
Update (24.8.2012): New version uploaded that fixes the texture compatibility problem with Gerd's F8F.
Credits:- PA_Jeronimo did the 3D modeling work using Gerd's F8F 3D engine and texture with his permission. Thanks a lot!
- I only fine tuned them to release condition, fixed some smoothing and other bugs (like gap between fuselage and engine in bubbletop variants), and gave useful feedback and information during development.
- Original IL-2 development team and many modders (101tfs, Kumpel, Freddy, Crazyflak, Riken etc.) allowed us to have all these variants in IL-2, so credits also for them.
I wish you happy time flying the updated "Jug"!P.S. Engines for P-47C are also included with lower cowl flaps removed, but they are unused until someone makes new slot for P-47C. Anyone interested can use them to create P-47C mod.
