It's included also some work of Japancat and maybe some other than I cannot recall, please inform me.
Still, I made a bit of work myself and I am willing to share.
READ ME of v0.2
This is a collection of pilots, EVERYTHING I had stored in my hard drive. (apart from some outdated versions)
Plus some new things like:
- a new hurricane pilot Mk.I pilot, a hybrid of Bf 109 pilot (of Barnesey) meshes and Hurricane MAT files. It's not a straightforward adaptation, as it needed a reworked of the hier file.
- All pilots of Barnesy (that is all US, UK, german and japanese pilots of pilots redux series), apart from the Hurricane Mk. II pilots, have been reworked and now they can subject of pilot change from the arming screen.
- A lot of new planes have now new pilots, mainly old versions of wolfighter pilots, adapted by me where no new hier file was required. It maybe not the latest we have available from "IL-2 pilot technology" but they are WAY better than the stock pilots.
- some few non pilot related extras have been added, like:
Seperate versions of Bf 109D early and Bf 109D late have been added.
For everyone interested, please add the following lines:
Bf-109D-1Late air.BF_109D1L 2 g01 SUMMER
A new default P-47B-15 multi skin is somewhere there hidden.
This pack is a BETA because:
- Hurricane is a unfinished job and I have no idea when I 'll have the chance to re-work it, (possibly in a month from now.) All Hurricanes now have new hier files
- I was not able to move the Japanese pilots to a more appropiate position no matter how much I tried. In some planes like the N1K-J, their position into the cockpit is HORRIBLE. Totally unrealistic. I hope this would, with the help of Barnesey or somebody else, eventually change. STILL UNRESOLVED
- Some things are so old that maybe have been added as standard in UP3.0 and/or DBW 1.7/1.71 and I was not aware about. Sorted out
- Barnesy is working in new things, so these new things when they are going to be available are going to be added in the pack (With his permission of course). Not likely, it's up to him of course
- You users must assure that everything is working properly in your installations. Please report any bugs.
This is version v0.2 and not v0.1 because:
Some of the pilots that you see here are coming from a "files" folder that exists in my hard drive since I was still working based on a very, very, old now AAA sound mod 9.3 installation. All these are added into the v0.1 (the version I have in my jsgmemods folder) to create version 0.2 Not any anymore in v1.0. It caused problems and conflicts with some users.
v0.4
- Russian pilots deleted since they caused problems (non-appearing) in some users SOLVED
- All Hurricane pilots can now change skin
- All bugs corrected, all the planes are appearing now
- Curtiss fighter family added
- P-39s: A mix of a new kiel antenna, VVS P-39N-5 & P-39Q-30 made by Karabas-Barabas (v.0.95) with the new pilots. I could not trace where I found the new kiel, so please pm to give the appropiate credits.
