For some reason my Chipmunk canopy opens forward.

+1

However this is an aircraft with no slot yet: It uses Magister slot which has no canopy. My bet is that we will have to wait and see until a proper slot+FM is made and check what happens from there...

It's all good - we Canadians a re a little bit backwards

[Edlor]

That's exactly what I'm waiting for Hubberranz. As it is now the amount of movement to the canopy isn't enough to open it fully. Hence that's why I haven't done anything with it.

Cheers.

Chipmunks now have their own slots thanks to Mission_bug. 

See first post for updated link.

Cheers,

Edlor

Pete/Edlor  thanks for the slot for this little beauty and for bring the Chipmunk to IL2.  Seems something might be  missing for the SSP to work (technics.ini entries?)

Hello dona, this was reported in the beta thread and I updated things there but it looks like Edlor used the earlier upload.

Here is the full entry:

The slot was a quick and dirty one as we say, so the cockpit has Russian instruments as per the Z-26 but hopefully that is not a real immersion killer
and was to me the most appropriate for the Chipmunk from what was available in game already without a lot of work.


Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

Pete
Thanks very much but it also appears that the SSP folders for both Mks are missing from the update as well.

[Edlor]

You can find the SSP folders in the first post now dona,

Cheers,

OK new slot solved the open cockpit issue. 
Thanks for the missing lines for ssp.   

Here is a long lasting error borrowed from magister, which DOES NOT prevent either planes working quite fine...

Code: [Select]

[Jun 17, 2017 12:30:56 AM] -------------- END log session -------------...missing Hook report in msh is related to plane ( not cockpit ) file, and narrowed down to CF_D3.msh.

What i'm saying is that replacing CF_D3.msh by another planes msh file ( thus making a franken) of same name removes the error report. Hope that helps.

[Hubberranz]

So, may I present for fun:
The Bellugamunk        <---------------------------
The Chipwhale II   
                                   
I will stop here before I do more damage to my computer, which suffers nervous brake downs way too often...

Hang a few missiles off that one and you got a winner!!!!! 

[dsawan]
