Akemi ki43-1k Oscar 11 Sentai skinpack UT

[UncleTgt]

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Skins - Japanese

Description: Akemi ki43-1k Oscar skinpack1 by UncleTgt

This is a revision of Akemi's ki43-1k Oscar for CFS 2. It uses one of the excellent skins released by Morton as it's base. 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 11 Sentai aircraft at different times throughout their deployment to the Solomons & Papua New Guinea.

The 5 textures supplied all depict 11 Sentai aircraft during their service from October '42 until June '43.

The 2D panel bitmap is WIN 7+ friendly. I combined Shina's 2D panel with Akemi's VC panel view.

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. 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.

Morton for his excellent repaint, used as a base for this skin pack.

Kelticheart for his exhaust effects, & inspiration for the propeller bitmaps.

This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.
