Description: akemi A6M3b Zero skinpack1 by UncleTgt
This is a revision of akemi's A6M3b model 22 Zero for CFS 2. The model has been tweaked with a blue/green glass colour & slight changes to sheen using MDLmat. A dull camo sheen model is supplied for these later camouflaged planes.
The airfile only has a description changed to read in English. The textures have been redrawn to try & match the stock textures in appearance, & depict a variety of aircraft at different times throughout their active service.
The textures supplied are:
W1-108 Aircraft from 201ku, based at Kahili, September 1943. Pilot Takeo Okumura.
T2-112 Aircraft from 204ku, based at Kahili, June-July 1943. Pilot Matsuo Hagiri.
U1-105 Aircraft from 251ku, based at Rabaul, May 1943.
53-157 Aircraft from 253ku, based at Tobera airfield in the Rabaul area of New Britain, circa September 1943.
The 2D panel bitmap has been made WIN 7+ friendly. I combined the OH stock 2D panel with Akemi's VC panel view, & improved the resolution of the VC view instruments.
The aircraft.cfg contact points have been adjusted to allow belly landings (thanks Skylane), & the airfile optimised for improved AI formation flight & a more accurate flight range.
The dp file makes use of kelticheart's exhaust effects. It makes use of Allen's Japanese bombs, & Thicko's D4Y2 wing pylons. I converted it to read in english instead of japanese.
To install, unzip the download to a temporary location & move/ copy files to the matching folder names inside your chosen CFS 2 install.
Thanks to
Akemi for a great series of multi-LOD aircraft
Allen for his DOSmdlc_2, making shine & mdl size changes possible in WIN7+
Martin Wright for so many useful tools, in this case in particular MDLmat allowing aircraft model material transparency & colour changes
Kelticheart for his exhaust effects, & inspiration for the propeller bitmaps
