Credits:
gio963tto: Built 3d model and assembled cockpit folders using parts of the 3d model.
Pete Shaw aka Mission_bug: New aircraft slots from the 504. Updated the cockpit java with new names for some parts and reorientated various cockpit controls so they moved correctly. FM renamed from previous but with some entry changes for the 184.
Elements of the mod: 1C Maddox Games from within IL-2 Sturmovik 1946.
Notes:
The Mod uses Cooper bombs and they have always been problematic, for some reason they are named differently in some packs, please make sure you have these in your game:
0_WW1Bombs_British and Arms_British, found at these links:
https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,33456.0.htmlhttps://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,26355.msg335779.html#msg335779The model uses the game MK.12 torpedo java and that is what will show in game unless you move the mod to the top of your SAS, DBW folder using the title '! Short184', this is how the folder has been named in the links posted. Used this way you will see the 3d torpedo model Gio made for the aircraft. If you place the folder alphabetically, 'Short184' the in game Mk.12 model will show.
Be aware that if you use this at the upper end of the SAS/DBW folder other mods using the Mk.12 could show the torpedo model by Gio.
All weapon options use WWI bomb packs from Dreamk.
Self Stationary Planes included:
Note: Due to the way some of the gear parts are used in the weapon selection screen they are not part of the aircraft hier so do not show in the centre of the floats on the statics.If you wish to use the Self Stationary Plane add the folder in the download that begins with the title 'PS_Short_Type184_SSP' to your mod folder and add the entries below.
Note: If you do not have a section for the self staionary aircraft you will need to create one using the headers shown below after your stock static entries.
