Yashico aircraft preservation thread...

[Rami]

Hey guys,

UncleTgt began this project by uploading seven aircraft this morning. I created a new username for Yashico and also created a new category for his aircraft. All of his planes have been unzipped and reassembled without passwords.

http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?catid=209

Here is a list of what remains to be uploaded, sans passwords. Go ahead and upload what you have that has not already been done, and I will take care of the rest.

I downloaded the yashico n1k1-ja george to find out there wasn't an aircraft.cfg file.

[Rami]

Boeing,

I'll ask UncleTgt to re-upload that one, I may have accidentally deleted when I was transferring it to a non-locked .zip file. I have the passwords backed up on two computers in four separate places, so not to worry.

[BoeingvsAirbusNKL]

Alright rami. I am good with that.

[Rami]

Boeing,

Actually, the problem is more systemic. It seems that he only put the aircraft.cfg in his downloads for the primary model, and you have to hand-edit them. All the ones in the library now are good, and I corrected this with a bunch of ones I unzipped for Kdriver so he can do screenshots. It just seems we'll have to be more careful, is all.

[BoeingvsAirbusNKL]

Thanks, rami.

[Devildog73]

I only have 7 of Yashico's planes, but I do have the complete list of his passwords if needed.

The 7 planes I have are: YS_f1m2 /

YS2A7M2A (This is the Experimental No.3) /

YS2F1M2C (This is the 958 P3-18 you are looking for)/

YS2F1M2D (This is the battleship Yamato belonging) /

YS2K44IIC (This is the 70 SQ)/

YS2K44IIE (This is the 246SQ) /

YS2NK1JaA (This is N1K1-Ja SHIDEN "KOU" 201SQ, not 210SQ)

[Rami]

Lee,

Upload the Ki-44s, and please unlock the folders before doing so. If you can take screenshots for them as well, it would be appreciated.

Kdriver should have the others covered.

[Devildog73]

YS Ki-44s on their way!

During my master degree program I had "dropbox" on my computers. It has taken over my photoshop and screenshop programs, so once I get it uninstalled I will upload some jpg photos of the Ki-44s.

Just out of curiosity; did the IJN and IJA aircraft not shine in real world 1930s and '40s?

Yashico's aircraft all have very dull finishes. I wondered if that was by his design to be authentic?

[kelticheart]

:applause: :applause: :applause:

Thank you very much DD73, Kdriver and Rami!

Yasuhiko Sasaki's works of art are very well worth preserving.

Cheers!

Hi DD73, Kdriver and Rami,

in the old Yashico's webpage there was also a very nice, well proportioned B-29 AI model that I have been using with great satisfaction, both in late-war PTO and in Korea, ever since I downloaded it.

In spite of being very well modelled, it is so simple that one can throw 100+ in the air without altering the framerate. I also uploaded in the past two repaints, a PTO:

http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=57&id=2033

and a KoW:

http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=57&id=1708

plus prop discs and alternative dp for it.

I don't see it in the CFS2 preservation section, would you like me to upload it, providing I kept the original file?

Cheers!
KH :ernaehrung004:

[Rami]

Stefano,

Yes, please!

[Devildog73]

Stefano,

Yes, please!

KH,
I second Rami...:encouragement:

[kelticheart]

KH,
I second Rami...:encouragement:

OK, folks!

I have been a little late with my deliveries lately, because I was busy up to my ears with my job and readying my house for the cold season.

I will try to upload it tomorrow, together with Shessi/Alpha's PBY5 prop discs and exh effects.

Cheers!

A good day to everybody! :wavey:

I just re-uploaded Yashico' B-29A AI model for the Yashico legacy preservation drive, as promised.

The model itself is very good, in line with Yashico's impeccable production, from a distance it looks great in formation with Gnoopy's super-accurate B-29A model. Yet it is so simple, without any type of animation that one can fill the skies with it without impairing animation performance.

Anyway, I must comment on the fact that the original flight model and dp file aren't that accurate. The original airfile engine data makes this aircraft sorely underpowered, while its dp features just one payload with a single bomb in it.

Attached below the airfile I developed using Gnoopy's B-29A airfile as a reference. I also modified the dp file adding historical payloads and Tango Romeo's AI drop in the first position, to make mission developer's life easier.

Yashico used prop disc textures completely invisible. I was able to create very simple prop discs that are a little more visible, adding a touch of realism.
You can find them in my two historical repaints of this B-29A AI here:

http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=57&id=1708

RAMI:

in order to keep Yashico's B-29A AI upload strictly as I first downloaded it, I chose to keep my mods out of his original pack. Should you decide otherwise, feel free to do it. All files inside are original Yashico work dated 2003. The only thing I am not sure about is its filename. I think I renamed it for my archiving purposes.

Repainters are strongly invited to do a better job than I did dressing this nice B-29AI. I believe it's the best AI model ever designed for CFS2, it deserves several historical liveries and better natural metal textures for our late WWII PTO and Korean conflict.

Enjoy!

A good day to everybody! :wavey:

I noticed another two models created by Yashico were missing from the Yashico Legacy pages. Here they are:



Nakajima Ki-27C "Nate", independent 84th Sq.
Kawasaki Ki-61-II Kai "Tony II", 56th Sq.


I like the Ki-61-II a lot because it's a rare bird, it's the only "bubbletop" Ki-61 model that was ever made for CFS2.

We are still missing several models Yashico made, that I was unable to download before his website went offline. According to the list of passwords he sent me back in 2006, he made:

#4 A5M4 "Claude" (A,B,C,D) --------------------------------------------------> all re-uploaded
#4 Type 97 Ki-27 "Nate" (A,B,C,D) -------------------------------------------> A and B missing
#4 N1K1J Shiden (J, Ja Kou, Ja Kou, Jb Otsu) --------------------------------> all re-uploaded
#2 A7M1 Reppu (prototype and fictional) -------------------------------------> A missing
#2 A7M2 Reppu (prototype and fictional) -------------------------------------> A and B missing
#2 B7A2 Ryusei-Kai "Grace" (752 Navy Sq., Yokosuka-Ku) ------------------> all re-uploaded
#4 Type 0 F1M2B "Pete" (Chitose, Kamikawa-Maru, 958 Sq., Yamato) -----> all re-uploaded
#3 Ki-43-I "Oscar" (Kou, Otsu, Hei) -------------------------------------------> B and C missing
#5 Ki-44-II "Tojo" (Kou A, Kou B, Otsu C, Otsu D, Hei E) --------------------> A, B and D missing
#2 Ki-61-II "Tony II" (Rokuichi-Kai, 56 Sq. bubbletop) ----------------------> A missing
#4 Ki-84 "Frank" (Kou A, Kou B, Kou C, Otsu D) -----------------------------> all missing
#5 Ki-100-I (Kou A, Kou B, Otsu C, Otsu D, Otsu E) -------------------------> all missing

Finally, something I could not identify that he called: [Umiwashi-no Kaikou] Aircraft Pack -----> missing

The B-29A AI did not require a password.

If any of you out there has one or more of the missing models in your archives, please contribute to Yashico's artwork preservation effort. Do upload them. :adoration: :tranquillity:

Thank you!

As I wrote above, I am in the process of sorting out what I received from kwb737, that is:



restoring each original file and its name;
creating each model thumbnail for the library.

[Rami]

Stefano,

Thank you so much for taking the lead on this! :applause:

[kwb737]

Your very welcome Kelti. I've had these for awhile. I sent a email to Yasuhiko Sasaki yashico@cna.ne.jp in February of 2012 asking him if he could send me the passwords to download his aircraft from his site. Shortly thereafter I received the password list from him and started downloading his aircraft. I put all the aircraft that downloaded away for safe keeping. If I remember correctly the reason I don't have A7M1 Reppu (A) , Ki-43-I "Oscar" (B) , Ki-84 "Frank" (A and D), and the [Umiwashi-no Kaikou] Aircraft Pack is that the passwords Yashico sent me for these particular items did not work for some reason, and as a result I was not able to download them. If anyone else has these particular items that would not download for me that would be great.

[miamieagle]

Thank you Guys!:applause:

[SPman]

I've got the A7M1A and A7M2A , the Ki431B, Ki84B & Ki84D, if it's any help. Must check the passwords for the Ki84's -yep - they all work.

I've got the A7M1A and A7M2A , the Ki431B, Ki84B & Ki84D, if it's any help. Must check the passwords for the Ki84's -yep - they all work.

Hi SPman,

I uploaded the Ki84 B yesterday, together with the C. Send me, or upload it directly, the Ki84 Otsu D.

I uploaded the A7M2 A yesterday. Again send me, or upload the A7M1 A prototype, together with the Ki43-I Otsu B, this is the only one remaining to complete Yashico's Oscar series.

I just replied to your PM including my e-mail address, which hasn't changed in ages.

Thank you for your help. As long as the files in the pack are Yashico's original work, do upload them yourself. The only thing we need to do is taking a screenshot for the necessary thumbnail picture, to help identifying the pack correctly for download.

A SUGGESTION TO EVERYBODY WILLING TO HELP COMPLETE THIS PRESERVATION EFFORT:

please, let's stay in touch in order to avoid uploading duplicates. It happened in the past and it truly makes our good librarian Rami's life difficult.

Remember:


duplicate uploads confuse newcomers and/or whoever has not the historical memory of some of us SOH vets;
they can also confuse experten of this website;
duplicate uploads uselessly eat up hard disk storage room on SOH server. Don't forget the yearly fundraising is not that far away, every so often the administrators are forced to upgrade the server HDD's because they are filled up to the brim. Let's be responsible, let's help keeping this recurring cost hit us the least possible times.


Thank you, everybody!

New uploads for today:

Kawasaki Ki-61-II Kai "Tony II" early model
Kawasaki Type 5 Ki-100-I Kou, 111st Sq.

[Umiwashi-no Kaikou] Aircraft Pack -------------------------------------------> missing

Thank you Finn for uploading the Kawanishi N1K1Ja (B) which completes Yashico's George series, the Mitsubishi A7M1 (A) prototype completing the M1 Reppu series and the Nakajima Ki-27 (A) & (B), which completes the Nate series.

I completed the Ki-100-I series sent to me by kwb737, as attached.

I will be getting the Ki-44 "Tojo" A, B and D ready over the weekend and upload them on Monday. They will complete the Tojo series.

All we have left to find to have Yashico's entire collection restored to SOH are:



A7M2 "Reppu" (B) fictional
Ki-84 "Frank" A & D
Ki-43-I "Hayabusa" B


Four models plus the aircraft pack left. Not too bad, I dare say. A good weekend to everybody! :redfire:

Cheers!

I have the A7M2B (Fictional) and will upload it today....DONE

It looks strangely like the one Kdriver uploaded with the same tail ID.
Yashiko's original readme file in this one definitely says it is the B (Fictional) model.

Yashiko's original readme file in this one definitely says it is the B (Fictional) model.

It's a duplicate entry of the A7B2B. I believe you and Kdriver uploaded the same aircraft. The A7M2A Reppu Experimental No,3 and it has a different tail # but it will not load for me so I emailed Kelti to look at it. Also looks like there is a duplicate for the F1M2 PETE Seaplane Carrier "Kamikawa-Maru also.

[Finn]

Friends, I fear we are far from having it all. What about the seaplane carrier "Kamikawa-Maru" and the battleship Yamoto? (OK, this latter ship has been created by others). I received a kind mail from mr. Yashico himself with the codes for his creations, and here he mentioned also those ships. Since he allowed them codes, he surely must have put them on the net, right? I uploaded said mail in my upload too, so please look for his listing. Yasihco was a true artist, and his work deserves to be preserved. Unfortunately we have lost so many talented geniusses lately, but as long as CFS-2 still is alive and kickin' we should strive to preserve their legacy here. By the way: Upload is very difficult, if you have more than just one, single file. This should be amended.:jump::dizzy:

The codes and items you are referring to are not for ships but seaplanes assigned to those ships you mentioned. "Kamikawa-Maru", "Yamoto".

[Wayland]

Kelti, et al

I checked my A7m2B file and is the same as DD73's Tail code Reversed "E"-168.

This is from a file DL'ed from Yashico's original site in 2010, so I'm pretty sure it's the valid one for it.

I checked the rest of my Yashico dls, and You already have what I have.

Sorry not to get back sooner but my Yashico files were in storage, which meant a 300 mile round trip, so it had to wait till I was going that way anyway.

[kwb737]

Found the problem of why the YS2A7M2A would not load. Problem was in the panel cfg. file. I deleted what was in there and aliased it to the B model it fixed the problem and now loads properly.

I'm sorry I didn't see this thread earlier, I could've chipped in a couple of Yashico's planes from my files. Just FYI, I also have the A7M2B Reppu and mine has the same Yokosuka Air Group paint job as what has already been posted: katakana "Yo" character (backwards E) -168 so I'm pretty sure that's the legit "B" model. This is a great project to preserve Yashico's flight sim legacy, thank you everybody for uploading his stuff. :encouragement:

[kelticheart]

Hi everybody!

Many thanks to Finn for his weekend uploads, I was not aware of the I-16 AI existence, :redfire: Yashico did not mention it in the password file he sent to me.

RAMI:

as promised, I had prepared the uploads for the remaining Ki-44-II Shoki (A, B and D). Since Finn uploaded them before me, at least attached below the three thumbnails for each model, so that we can offer a view of what's in store for anyone willing to download.

If you wish me to, I can make thumbnails for the missing ones.

Cheers!
