There is a real lack of skins for the FAA Corsairs (especially good ones), so these are much appreciated! Thanks starfighter.

Starfighter,

                These are beautiful skins, I downloaded them right away.

                 Would you please take a gander at a skin request I made last year, and consider an alternate for the 1841 Sqdn skins  (HMS Formidable) for the end of the war, and specifically Robert Hampton Grays numbers which this research shows are most commonly - EVEN IN MUSEUMS - errantly used.

I hope I can tempt you - these skins are boss!

Thanks for your work regardless of whether you take the challenge.

Skins are fantastic! One question that I have concerns the clear pylons and drop tanks bonus - what does it do when activated?

Thanks ,

 :) Hi all!

I am very happy that you like these skins...

... it rewards the care and seriousness that I make for making these skins Hyper-Realistic...

It is true that there were not many Corsair skins of the "FAA" I'm happy to help fill the gap...
Thank you again...

Now I'll try to answer your questions:

Hello Kopfdorfer!

For respond to your request I made some research and I found another variant for
the Corsair's "Lt.Robert Hampton Grays" it would be a

Corsair F Mk.IV of the 1842 Sqn, FAA, (HMS Formidable) - Serial: 11 (KD-245), March, 1945.
 
Can you confirm whether it's this model that you think ??


Skins are fantastic! One question that I have concerns the clear pylons and drop tanks bonus - what does it do when activated?

Thanks ,
Ribs

Hello Ribs!

With regard to "clear the pylons and drop tanks bonus... etc... etc..." is very simple:

- It allows for change the skin of the Pylons and Droptanks in according to the skin of the aircraft simply and practical without having to restart the game...

1 - First create a shortcut icon "JSGME" on your office
2 - Install in "JSGME" the "F4U-Ordnance_Arms-Droptanks-Pylons" which will be definitive ...
3 - Then place the "+ Clear F4U-Ordn._Tank & Pylons" always  in "JSGME" you can then enable or disable when you like.

For example:



After activate "+ Clear F4U-Ordn._Tank & Pylons"


I hope that answers your questions... see you soon... ;) ;) ;)

Starfighter - I've installed it per the instructions , it still has no effect on changing the pylon and tank skins - any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks ,
Ribs

Just noticed in your JSGME screen shot what appears to be mods that are not functional in DBW - is that the issue with these?

;) Hi! Ribs
 

I am still working with "4.09m and Up 2.01" for now...

The file tree should not be the same, and the files "Arms" also...

Locate "Arms "...( or equivalent) in your IL2, well save the file tree,
and make your own mod to be installed in "JSGME" with a new folder.

Ex: Name of the file ...> Files> 3do> Arms... (file location)...

* Try keeping only the files (texture.tga) in the Pack...

PS: WARNING!  - Always backup your original files before changing something...
                         - Make a backup of your game, a clean version, and a version with all your
                             latest mods Installling in USB key or other...
                              - Regularly update your backup...



Re PS: Sorry for the bad English...  :-[

Hey Starfighter,

                     No, I have not seen the paintscheme you showed in response to my request. I like it, but as far as I understand, based on the recollections and (alleged - I have never seen a representation of the painting referred to) evidence of a painting in the possession of Hampton Gray's former CO as I outlined in my linked thread,
your HMS Formidable skin would be correct, except that LtCmdr Bigg-Wither, 1841s CO at the time stated that the 1841 Sqdn Corsairs had been repainted prior to the ship's last WWII operational sortie, so that their Sqdn # (1) and the AircraftID # were separated by the rondel, rather than all in one numeral following the rondel.

Further, the commonly accepted aircraft ID number (*115) represented when referring to Hampton Gray's VC earning sortie in Onagawa Bay Japan August 9, 1945 cannot be correct if  RN flight records are considered. In my opinion, Bigg-Wither's comments are of serious import to aviation historians who typically misrepresent the aircraft flown by Hampton Gray in art, even much used in museums!

If you have interest in this skin or a correct 1841 Sqdn skinset, read my thread and check out the info in it. If you can find further more accurate or precise info I would very much like to hear it.

Thanks for your interest.

Sincerely,

Kopfdorfer
