This is some amazing work! Thank you sir for all your hard work.

What a lovely bunch. Thanks John!

I've always had a soft spot for these models but your reworking of their textures has really lifted them to another level altogether.

Description: Merlin2 Bristol Beaufort Mk1-t revised by UncleTgt

This is a revision of the Bristol Beaufort model series made by Merlin2 for CFS 2. This pack depicts the mk1-b. I used MDLmat & DosMDLCv2 to give the model some shine, better coloured aircrew lifevests, plus improve the glass transparency & colour, prop disks etc.

The 2D panel bitmap has been made WIN7+ safe, & the definition of the VC instruments has been improved.

The .dp file has been given historically accurate payload options, & the damage effects, hitpoints & AI gun performance tweaked to give a better combat experience. As the airfile was developed by Jerry Beckwith, the only thing I adjusted was to lower the elevator authority somewhat, to try to make it less fighter-like when engaged. I changed the aircraft family from 4 to 5 (more a G4M2 Betty than a TBF Avenger), but this has not been tested extensively in missions.

The sounds are aliased to the C47 Dakota.

The textures offered are: N1016 OA-X 22 squadron St Eval April 1941. Flown by Flight Officer Kenneth Campbell VC during his attack on Gniesenau in Brest harbour, 6th April 1941.

L4445 of the Torpedo Development Unit, Gosport, December 1939
