Fairey Battle v4.GC !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

by Ranwers, Charlie Chap, and Maraz
additional classfiddles by CirX

This is, albeit a very advanced one, a bit of a frankenplane, with a few issues. Accept them and enjoy it!
This plane is essential for any Blitzkrieg or Sitzkrieg Campaign. So, depending on which side you choose, enjoy shooting them down, or , enjoy commiting suicide .

This version includes all patches and stuff. It uses a slightly edited Gladiator Cockpit instead of the overmodern Tempest one. It contains numerous fixes and edits by Ranwers and Charlie, incl a bombaimer position, but we are not claiming perfection, only improvement. This is still a WIP.

This package also includes some alternative coloured Gladiator Pit TGA files that you can play with in your cockpit folder (make backups first!)

Enjoy!

Groundcollision bug in both versions now fixed with files from Charlie, originally by Maraz. If you have previous version you can just delete its folder and replace

For those who prefered the original tempest-type cockpit ranwers put in, here is the same package as above, but with the tempest-type cockpit instead of the gladiator-type one.

Bright! Shiny! Great......
Will be well used as 109 cannon fodder....

Thanks a lot for the improvement. I have a question: is it possible to fix the fuselage flicking bug when shooting from the rear gunner's position? Besides the flashes, the fuselage parts/structure flicker.

JUHU this works on 4.10. My favorite underdog AC.
 Very realistic and historical way of almost impossible to survive in kind of MOD

This worked in 4.10 for me too.

Just to add my $0.02 and give some credit to Ranwers... judging by period photos and the cockpits of dedicated models of the Battle in other sims (CFS3, etc), the original adapted-Tempest cockpit is actually very close to the appearance of the real thing. More so than the Gladiator stand-in.
