Baltimore is up at Regs hanger

[seacondor]

Baltimore is up at Regs hangerThese are for MAW. There is a mission set by Househobbit as well.
So have fun.
I'm doing the B24's now but it will take a while. It is not easy to get the files on the server. Takes many tries sometimes. But It will be happening.

Is the Baltimore compatible with ETO yet?

Can this work for stock CFS3 or not?

I had the Baltimore working in my CFS3 but it has a lot of Maw stuff in it so it is best to try it and see how it goes. I don't expect the missions will work in it.

[FOO FIGHTER]

Awesome work! Thank you.:salute:

[ndicki]

Great stuff! I can delete the old ones then! ;-) Thanks to you all.


Autothrottle - If you transfer the sound files, and make sure you have the pylons, weapons and effects, any CFS3 aircraft is flyable in any install, MAW, ETO, PTO, OFF or whatever it may be. The effects and guns will be in the AvHistory weapons download in any case, and that is standard in ETO too.

Just so everyone understands. I had nothing to do with this great plane. It was Steve and the boys baby. I've only done the web site work for it.

Thanks alot, will try it out!

I didn't realize that the stock MAW effects don't include aircraft navigation lights until I tried to add them to these planes this evening. I was able to add vapor trails and gun smoke/shell casings though. Just paste these lines in at the bottom of the effects section of your xpd file.

<Effect Type="Shells3" EffectName="fx_shells_s" PosX="-4.4" PosZ="2.3" PosY="-0.50"/>

Oh, and I finished this tonight as well...

[ndicki]

Major, to save you the trouble - I actually copied the latest ETO effects xml directly into MAW, and then carefully transferred the effects dds files. As the ETO effects simply expand on the original MAW ones, no MAW effect is left out. It's perfectly safe! But back it all up just in case, you never know...

Nice skin - you've taught me something! I didn't realise the Greeks operated Baltimores in Greek, rather than RAF, markings.

[greycap.raf]

In case someone has made the effects swap here are the actual lights. Also new (I think) engine startup positioning.

Coming from you, that means a lot to me...

These were transfers from the RAF to Greece.They just overpainted the original Middle Stone painted areas with Dark Green, and applied the National Markings.

[dmaloof]

Hi, how goes the B-24 loadup? Still giving trouble?

[MajorMagee]

Just a minor detail, but on the Baltimore III everything is fine when you're up close. When the texture jumps to the second closest LOD the models uses the starboard side fuselage for both sides. As you move farther out to the third LOD it goes back to having both sides being different.

[sdsbolt]

Ok, nice catch but the mesh was lost years ago in an HD crash so we can't really fix it .

[westview]

I was just about to ask if someone was going to make a Greek Skin......
Any plans to upload?

If I can get permission from the development team I will.

[Bravo/4]

If I can get permission from the development team I will.

Major, as long as you give credit, you are good to with your skin upload, but I can't give premission for standalones, that is up to the model maker!

[Daiwilletti]

Thanks to all involved, I can't wait to try this bird :applause::applause:

[MajorMagee]

Is the Bombardier Station supposed to be working? I see the cockpit files for it, and the entry in the xpd file, but nothing in game.

[sdsbolt]

Thats fine by me too. Nice skin BTW

Thanks so much for this aircraft! ~S~

The Station is working for me. Infact it is the best bombsight I have seen.

[sdsbolt]

Infact it is the best bombsight I have seen

I'll second that!

[MajorMagee]

Is it some special key combination other than F6, F7 or F8?

[Phenozo]

10418Major, did you try toggling F3 when in Bombadier Mode F7?

[MajorMagee]

Thanks, It really did help knowing that it was supposed to be working.

I checked and the Bombardier View was properly assigned to the F7 key but it was non-functional. I deleted the assignment, and tried to reassign it as F7, but CFS3 reported that F7 was already being used. I changed it to Shift+F7 and viola it works.

Now I just need to track down why my default key assignments have more than one entry for F7.

[Nonato]

This mission is up Guys!! Enjoy!
