    F6F stock skin for Overhauled F6F

    Trying to get the stock F6F3 skin for the overhauled one.Problem is despite trying to do what worked with the F4U, it does not seem to work.When I place the stock ones, although the names match it has me missing a wing and part of the engine cowling on the right side lol.Anyone have a clue? Also, have not seen many F6F5 skins, more for summer of 44, before the dark blue gloss became common.Any links? Searched this site many times.Thanks in advance.

    For most of the Overhaul aircraft AIRCRAFT_t.bmp AIRCRAFT_d.bmp are for the left side and AIRCRAFT_R.bmp AIRCRAFT_b are the right side so for the F6F Hellcat. f6f3_hellcat_t and f6f3_hellcat_d are for the left and f6f3_hellcat_r and f6f3_hellcat_b are the right side.

    Thanks, this helps but which ones from the stock F6F do I need to rename to fit the overhauled f6f3 I tried but the right side still comes up missing half the wing, large section of engine cowling blank and the tail.

    Copy these...'

    f6f3_hellcat_t
    and
    f6f3_hellcat_d

    rename them...

    f6f3_hellcat_r
    and
    f6f3_hellcat_b

    You should then be all set. it will be the same for the other OH models.

    You'll get about 100 atleast. Covering every squadron and nationality you can think of. Maybe a few you can't.

    Also look for

    Kelticheart
    Allen
    Captain Kurt
    Rami
    B24Guy
    Morton

    Just to name a few. You will find all kinds of things for the OH models.

    So good luck and enjoy
