Steve, certainly not to be pushy, as I, for one, am extremely grateful for this aircraft, but please don't forget an A-25 Shrike version.

As before......mi-mi-mi=miiiii...

Is it that Polish 1939 aircraft? I can't remember the name for the life of me...

You'v e got afew fans!!! I'm keen on Navy stuff: do the wings fold and everything? (not being cheeky just wondering about all: don't have it in cfs2)

Only seen it in movies/ eg:Midwway to date. It was the main thing in Pacific, wsn't it ??? Very kind of you, appreciate.

Joost; have the 1 book but more might be helpful.

icutler; animations are not done yet. still trying to rebuild some of the mesh that got corrupted in the fsds to gmax conversion. not sure if I can squeeze in a wing fold animation. cfs3 does not have a key to model this. in the past I have used spoiler or bomb bay key(though not perfect) but clearly this a/c already uses those animations. leaves me few options :icon_lol:

Griz; I plan on creating an sb2c-1c from this mesh first. I believe that is pretty much the same aircraft.

sdsbolt; hang in there: would be worth the effort, sounds like it would be spectacular. Then with some sort of heaving deck to put it on............!!:jump:

Would be worth sacrificing a little-used key for it,...[if that's how it works..]

Isn't there an animation for cowl flaps? I've seen it referenced here and there, but I don't know if it works. In any case, it looks as though it'll be a beautiful piece of work!

Wow, I can't believe this! So many new a/c from sdsbolt! Thx Steve!
Cowling flaps are shift E to open and ctrl E to close.

There are some 10-11 to be found at the eLibrary on the FTP - uploading as we speak ;-)

BTW, I also uploaded a photographic walk-around showing the rather ingenious way in which the 'rear deck' behind the gunner's position was folded down to provide a better field of fire - Please do model that too!

not much to show, almost looks like a step backwards. with most of the corrupted mesh fixed I tailored it into a -1c and started a little mapping.

Regarding the canopy animation, how will it be? On the Dauntless and Devastator in CFS3, pilot and gunner are either close or open, it is not possible to have the pilot close and the rear gunner open as it was during real missions.

Will it be possible to have this configuration on this Helldiver?


Looking really good.

The actual design had big-looking fin from the sideon view, didn't it? Different/big shape from contemporarys of the era. 'Spose it just 'popped out' that way (...wondering....)

It's just the way the shot has been taken, Steve is very, very accurate with his model sizes, believe me!:mixedsmi:

Cool...now when that's done, the ne4xt candidate should be Wolfi's JU87...it's a great model with very cool fx.

One of our members ( Helldiver ) at SOH who was Helldiver gunner during WW2 said it is the most accurrate model fo a Helldiver he's seen. That was when it first came out a few years ago. I've used it several times in some of my CFS2 campaigns. Very nice plane.

Looking forward to it for CFS3.
