Update 4.32 comes with the pretty Cockpit Upgrade at PBY-5

Install always fresh, swap old folders to the bin, get the new ones.
Changes to PBY-5 Folder and new Cockpit Parts as a seperate Folder here.
Must stay until I finnished work.
You should get stock PBY with new Pitty too.
Now we are incremental to load before BAT FM and classes, STD...

Will prepare the Rest of the Slots for the Pits, must take a nip

Best wishes

Sorry Gentlemen,

Refreshed Link, my sight and concentration shivered,
this one has all except PBN-3 new Cockpits and latest fixes now.
start clean, really trash everything.

Java correction at all Slots, Type Aircraft and new Cockpit

At PBN I must investigate how to get, later, my eyes must rest until weekend.

Best wishes

Hi Tobias, hope you are doing ok. I like the new cockpits, but I can't get on with the dirty windscreen, so will probably stick to the older version for now (personal taste, I know).

Clear Window Fix as optional Download....

Official Pack is 100% historical and dirty Window, all contractors
have window cleaner equipment removed.

Thanks Tobias. Note to self: read posts more thoroughly.

Can I just say, your work here is heading towards one of the best aircraft upgrades in all of BAT, IMHO. You are completely transforming the Catalina range - they are an absolute pleasure to fly. Congratulations and my heartfelt thanks.

It's not my work, this just a consolidation, all the stuff is there, it just needs
a bit care to be in a collated state that represents most of it.

Right next to other Modders contribution this holds a special place as being the beloved theme for one of my past gone cats. Giesbert. My only IL-2 loving cat so far.
He sat next to my Laptop watching the first Beta Slot for the PBY-5 I created.
He was one of the first supporters and gave approval to get it out it's desperate state.
Good ole Giesbert, my good Pal, may he rest in cat heaven.

Tobias,  Thank you so much for your efforts.  I have been using the cats since v2.0 with the nose guns and rockets.  I have made several missions for the cats.  I am using the v4.3 version.  I like some of the features of the 4.32 like the cockpit panel which is easier to read.  The only thing I miss is the gunsight circle in the windshield  which helps with torpedoes, rockets and forward guns.  Again thanks so much. :) :) :) :) ;D ;D ;D :-* :-* :-*

Okay, I managed to import Gabriels K-14 from old Cockpit.
Method was crude, but at least it gets a Gunsight. Far from perfect.



The Cockpit really needs tinkering, the original VP-44 had Mk.IX Gunsights installed.
But I can't get any other Sight to work by this method.

Will ship out in Update Tonight, I'll have familly business this Weekend, spare time a bit off.

We could have a cool Nose Section with Bombardier Station look up here.

Here is current state of the PBY-5 Bombardier Nose section, it's perfectly modelled, glitch free.
Only needs importing and Java adjustments to work.
Current codes CTDs the sight, I used 3 types of codes, all crash. I can't make it work.
Here I could need Help of Java Gurus.

Tobias,
Thanks for the answer, I will try the update once it is released.  I do have one question regarding the loadouts.  What is a "WaterBomb"?  I have not been able to find it in any of my ordinance information.
Thanks again, have a great weekend with your family,

That is a Mk.VII Depth Charge, I saw a picture of one hoisted to a Sunderland.

A very rare Loadout I found, congrats you found the surprise Loadout.

Update 4.33 featuring working Gunsight back

Make sure to swap old Folders completely, don't copy and paste over.
Start fresh and clean. Thanks
