Depends what side : seems to be mirrored...

no, it's a slight mistake in all the Aleman skins.

Might there be a template for this new addition to work on some new skins? (It looks like perhaps the Bu-131 has been modified for the job. If so, does anyone know where to find that template?)

thx

This plane has a simple and good design.

I especially like the observer's head movement, so this model seems to be the best for movie makers as a reconnaissance plane.

But the shadow is not good.

It feels like it needs the touch of our friend Mick,

Thank you.

 o_O... well, this aircraft is very strange, shadow wise ...  o_O

When I check it with MeshViewer, I can see that most parts have a shadow, except for ex the rear wheel, the wing struts, and also the tail has got a totally wrong shadow ...  :-X



... BUT, if I open several important mesh files, I can see they have no shadow at all ...!  o_O

So I need to investigate deeper ...  :-X

First, please keep in mind that I couldn't install this AC in my 4.09 game version, since it was made for a 4.12 game version, so I could only check the final result with MeshViewer ...  ;)

Well I could finally pinpoint the culprit, it was the very last mesh file in the 3D folder, named "Shader" ...  :-X

Never seen anything like that before, and trust me, so far, I have added missing shadows to quite a lot of aircraft ...!  o_O

So after deleting this buggy mesh file, I had to add shadows from scratch, to all mesh files that needed one ...  :-[

I also found 4 unused mesh files, so I also deleted them from the 3D folder and hier.him file ...  ;)

Here is the link to the 3D folder :

https://www.mediafire.com/file/qgtgu3p762ds14c/Ar-66C(Multi1).7z/file

I also had a problem with the exhaust pipes, as they are not separated from the engine, so in order their shadow to be displayed, I had to create the shadow of the whole engine ...  :-X

I hope this won't create a visual bug in game ...  ;)
