    The paints from JanKees are now a lovely shade of pink?

    mm, I'll look at this when I get home, hopefully tomorrow evening

    edit: downloaded the new version, and I think I see the problem. The new version now has comp files, which my paints don't have.
    My guess is that if you copy the comp files into my texture folder, and recompile the layout.json file, then it should be ok again. I'm back at my paint-computer tomorrow evening, but maybe someone could check if this is indeed the case?
    You can find most of my repaints for FSX/P3D in the library here on the outhouse.

    Yes, that works. The comp files will probably need to be edited for full compatibility so only the shiny bits are shiny etc.

    Thank you for checking, I'll start updating my paints over the next few days, only 11 to do...

    ​Is the link posted in post #1 the link to the updated version?


    Cheers

    Sorry about all this Jankees, I should have let you know what I was up to but had no idea it would be a problem.

    no worries Rob, it's a relatively simple solution, the main problem is my own productivity..

    all meteor paints have now been updated. Make sure you have the new version of the Meteor from the SOH library, and then download my textures again.

    and if you like the asobo TBM, I updated those textures as well

    Amazing. I never even realised this was available for MSFS. It looks great!

    Please let me know if there are any problems, I think I covered everything, but with 11 repaints, I may have missed something.

    anybody interested in more Meteor paints?

    Is it me, or is the Meteor a bit more sluggish after the update, especially in its roll rate?

    Re 1 Squadron, photos seem quite hard to come by on the internet - the best that I have found were by searching "Corgi Meteor 1 Squadon" which brings up photos of the 1:72 Corgi die cast model of a plain F8 WE947 / L in the later squadron markings ie red bars with a white inner. ExtraDecal sheet X72-057 (also on internet) shows the same aircraft.

    The best overall reference that I have found is Volume 1 of Roger Lindsay's excellent "Cold War Shield" series - this shows that the Squadron's first F8s carried the wartime squadron code (eg VZ550 /JX-H). When the red bars first appeared, they were not infilled with white (eg WF642 / T and WH375 / H). Towards the end of the F8's camouflaged aircraft were used with the red bars infilled white (eg WL177 / Z).

    Now what would be fun would be a Number 1 F4 in the rather outrageous red bars applied to two F4s - search "Revell Meteor F4" and see the box art !
