Really quick questions...

[DauntlessDriver546]

1.) Reducing that cursed collision bubble...

2.) Are there any Spitfires and Hurricane skins for PACIFIC THEATER only? My PTO install is lacking those planes badly. Also, I need help figuring out the color schemes of the P-36 D-Ware planes so I know where they were based. I have Maskrider's Philippine Scenery uploaded, and it occured to me that if there were P-36s based in the Pacific Islands (besides Hawaii) at the time, would the skins on the D-Ware Hawks would represent one of those planes?

Thanks! Might make a new movie soon if I can find a subject worth the time... I doubt if it will include the new Pen32Win scenery... I tried taking some movies of the field, but the framerates die... :engel016:

Thanks!

1) Isn't there a do-hickey in MDLC to do this?

2) There are SEAC skins for most Hurricanes out there DD, certainly Thickos, and plenty of SEAC and RAAF skins for Spits.

Brunosks Vc was provided with some by AGAS very recently. Paul Rubuffats MkXIVs have several SEAC skins.

I do not have the time to find Skins for you but I will give the Addresses of different Websites with AC and Skins for CFS2. Half the Fun is looking around for what you are looking for.

have decide to make a post placing most of the links I have with CFS2 planes. I hope to you like this post. My only objective is to help fellow members to find most of the planes that have been develope throughout the years for this community by its dedicated developers.

My first recomdation if you to install Acman from this Website that will anable you to install most if not all this planes in different Hangars and in different CFS2 Installs.

1.http://fly.to/mwgfx# (http://fly.to/mwgfx#)

A WORD OF CAUTION

When you use the Acman and create a new Hangar you need to include the stock planes. What you can do is to make a New Folder and place a copy of the Stock planes in it. When you make the new Hangar just copy the stock planes from this Folder. Remember also that you are limit to 95 to 100 planes per Hangar. You do get up to18 Hangar with this program.


My secound recommendation is for you to install this utility from Sim-outhouse that will allow you to change planes and ships with in a Miision and Campaigns in secounds.

It also will give the ability to change whole planes Hangars and convert them into Ai Bandits in Quick mission.

This way you do not have activate plane after planes manualy. Its call mk_cfs2_uti2v.zip

You always have take a look inside the new Aircraft folder and see if it cotains any folder within that needs to be install like Guages or Weapons.

Go inside them and copy and paste them at the appropiate folders so the new Aircraft can show up in CFS2.

Hi DD,
There is an easier way to affect the collision bubble for ALL aircraft without having to change each aircraft.

Go into your main CFS2 folder and there near the middle you will find your cfs2.CFG (Back up a copy of this to a safe place).
Open the cfg file in notepad and go to the 'edit' drop-down and click on 'find'. Enter 'collision' and search for it. There is only one entry. You will it is set to 2 secs, change this to -1 (minus one), save and exit.

What this does is give you longer (and IMHO a more realistic proximity to the other ac) inside the the collision bubbles before exploding. I found this a good balance and if you want more just increase to a larger minus number.

Knew there must be an easier way to do it.:applause:
