I don't - others do - mind portovers if it only means the odd few issues and fixes. Often the results are well worth it and the FDG2 Donationware Corsair (FS9) actually works pretty well in FSX. I have the A2A bird but want the Birdcage version for flying in the Solomons.
I want to try another prop blur texture that looks right in FSX (common portover issue). Problem is, I can't tell which texture does this - or - whether there ever was a separate texture at all affecting prop blur for this plane.
Banana Bob did a texture - soh_donationware_prop.zip (http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/page.php?lloc=downloads&loc=downloads&page=downloads&FileUploadName=BananaBob&ammm=15&pap=4#download) - purportedly for ALL FDG2 props - which is here in the archive - but you get an error message if you try to download it so I have not been able to try it out. That is not really a problem, as I have others that can easily be borrowed (e.g., the A2A prop blur on DCC's P-38 looks great in FSX b/t/w).
What is strange is that other FDG2 a/c, e.g. Wildcat, Mitchell DO have a separate prop texture "prop_US.bmp" but the FDG Hog does not. Anyone have any suggestions? Is this just built into the model (as with some a/c lights) and can't be modded at all?
Thanks
