B-24's

B-24

Nice skins! But our MP squadron aren't using these craft anymore due to the awkward looking reticule in some of the gunstations and the fact that the ball turret has no sight at all. We've gone back to the Firepower B-24 as the proper gunsights there make for more immersion and in the ball turret on the FP B-24J I can actually track and hit an enemy a/c.

So my question is: Are there any plans to finish or have the gunstations been finished yet?

Hmm, the gunstations all work on the 24's.

Vogel, many years ago I was not pleased with the range of planes available for CFS2 and decided instead of complaining or wishing that someone would make the plane I want, or the way I wanted it, I decided to learn; first with fsds and then with gmax and max. With all sincerity and support, please learn how to use these tools, so you to can have the planes you want and the way you want them.:crybaby:
 
hi there...where are these skins located?

:wavey:Bravo/4 posted this.
Cheers guys,
most of these skins have been made for either the ETO release, or the PTO, any extra skins will be released at Reg's.
So most will be standalone aircraft, I'm just not sure on the one's for Reg's, it depends on how Greg want' s to do it, either standalone or skin pack, all comes down to the final number of skins I have?

As pointed out above, making a standalone is one of the easiest things you can learn to do in CFS3, once you have done it a couple of times it really is simple, you can't wreck your install by doing a bad standalone, and if you get stuck there is plenty of help about, direct, and indirect!​
 
I don't know what you guys are doing wrong but my B-24Js have the normal "diamond sight" in every powered turret, including the ball turret, and iron sights in the waist positions. You can always change the reticules to another version, for example that in the FP model, if you don't like the current one. But it most definitely works as is.
My mistake, your right. The "J" has the standard reticule in the ball turret while the "D" has no sight at all there. Thanks for the tip, I've since modified the .M3D files on the "D's" after looking at your "J's" ball turret .M3D so I now have a sight to make new reticles for.
 
.......instead of complaining or wishing that someone would make....
Sorry, not complaining really but wishing? Yes maybe a bit. You misunderstood my intent. Let me try that again: I was trying to ask if any of the professionals here were going to make new sights or reticules for the B-24's. If you remember I sent you pics of mine and you opted not to give me permission to upload them here, so I've been rather interested in seeing some others; some professionally designed sights, something that you would consider more appropriate. Something that would look and work better than these.
