I have found info about the TBF Avenger that might be interesting. After the 1st 50 TBFs rolled off the line the navy decided to get red of the second pilot. From then on the grew consisted of the pilot, ball gunner and radioman. When The TBF wint into its st battle which was at Midway it only carried the pilot , ballgunner and radioman no second pilot.It would be nice if we could put a panal in the 1% aircraft.We need boath TBFs for CFS2

Allen and others,
One of the nice things about being the SOH librarian is that I can do exactly what you guys are worried about...making sure the material goes under the original author's name.
And to Allen...OUTSTANDING JOB uploading TheB24Guy's aircraft that way. You did exactly what I hoped people would do, and the icing on the cake was that you included pictures!
When we get to people like baldy and thicko, the ability to consolidate packages will become critical.

Good morning,
I approved all of these, except I consolidated the Ford Island package by Robert John so that it no longer requires an update. I also added screenshots. :salute:

Kdriver,
Your rain is our gain! Here are the results...
1) I went ahead and consolidated the "Pacific Blues" package, so that a single download contains both folders. Screenshots included.
2) Those Mauro Desert Textures are actually for CFS1. They have been moved there.
3) I deleted Mauro's old airfields; they have long since been made obsolete by Achim.
4) I combined the API and Macros package for Stiz's library objects.
5) I included his texture fix for the PTO textures, version three.
6) I included both ETO water packages by Stiz in one package, with two different folders.
7) For the Coastal Defense package screenshots, I went ahead and consolidated the entire coastal defense package, so it contains pack I, pack II, and the screenshots. Proper credit was given to Jagdflieger, but the package is under the name of Pen32Win.
http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=45&id=5901
I took the liberty of placing the newest (not related to this project) files in the front of the library, so it avoids anyone feeling slighted.
A hearty thank you to all who continue to plug away on this, let's keep it going!

Welcome Rami. Going the extra mile sure make things look and work better.
I don't know if any one has or was going to reupload the 1%s but don't! I downloaded the first page and over half of them won't work on Window 7 computers. The panel coding is wrong. They need to be redone.
Also I will PM The B24 Guy and see if I can get his permission to use his overhual models, panels and needed textures to update the planes lacking a working virtual cockpit.

Good afternoon,
Allen, Kdriver, and Shessi have done a great job uploading file packages so far, but we need more hands for this to work. Please read this thread...
http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?65278-Attention-all-CFS2-ers
...then download files from the old library, and upload them to the new library. Right now we are working on scenery, but we'll need to do aircraft, skins and all those other things.
What we are doing is sifting through the files and determining what to keep and what to toss. By my estimation, about 30-40% of the files in the library are outdated, or consist of patches and fixes.
As an example, Xavierb did the East Asia WWII airfields, which was a consolidation of previous packages. Because the consolidation package that he did included all his older work, there was no need to inlclude all the old files, just the big package. The same was true for MaskRider's scenery packages, only the best GSL packages were saved, the older non-GSL fields were relegated to the dustbin.
Achim's airfields were also already taken care of.
As you transfer files from the old to the new, please post the names of the files you uploaded in the thread linked to above; I have timed this thread so it will be merged into the other thread after forty-eight hours.
The faster we do this, the quicker we will be down to only one library for our stuff!

Yes Rami... I will get started on those and test them on my Win7 system tonight or tomorrow.
Note: I just tested the 1US-F4F-4 and it worked fine in all cockpit views.
Also: the 1US_SB2C-4 works fine too.
The F4F4 use the stock panel that will work fine.
I only have page 1 downloaded so far but the...
A5M4
A7M2 (Also missing the mid and left side VC gauges. I found the non 1% at simv that I used to fix this.)
B5N-2 Rear
D3A-2 Rear
G4M2
All 3 Ki-44
Ki-61
will lock up on Win 7.
I also have PM sent to The B24 Guy to see if I can use the OH models to update the 1%s that use the non working VC MS AI models.
Note: I found that the G4M2 Betty and Ki-61 Tony has been uploaded twice in the old Warbirds Archive I found this out when I downloaded page 2 of the 1%s.

Allen,
It is a stipulation in the readme files of the 1% aircraft that they cannot be modified, and that must be upheld, unfortunately.

Kdriver and others,
Wow! Where to start...
1) I combined the Kursk airfields by Canion into one package, and I included my revised GSL file for the airfields which prevents them from being cancelled out.
2) I added a slew of pictures!
3) The Peenemunde package by sc7500 was deleted. I am working with him and Achim of a totally new, GSL version of that scenery, due out soon.
4) All of the EuroTarget packages were consolidated into ONE download, AND I took the liberty of creating a single GSL file for you to make installation easier.
5) I combined the Thames River extension, so that the scenery and texture files are in the same package.
6) I deleted the "Rhumba" edition install guide; the version in the new utilities section is newer than this.
7) I combined the airfields data entries for bobhegf with the scenery package, to streamline the library and eliminate fixes.
8) I combined all of the inf_texture mods by Sully into one download to make downloading easier, instead of fifteen separate packages.
9) I combined the Papua New Guinea airfields by Pen32Win to make downloading more streamlined.
10) I deleted the Gela aerodrome, because Achim's airfields in the area supersede them.
I'm still working on a few other downloads.

Good evening,
1) I combined the London objects by Kelti / SdC Redux to streamline the download and make installation easier.
2) Gavinc's Rhumba airfield mods were already in the new library.
3) I combined the airfield package by dvslats to streamline the library.
4) I likewise did the same thing with any updates for the airfields and scenery by Arndt.
5) The Japan_1941 airfields were deleted; they have long since been covered by Xavierb and MaskRider.
6) Any fixes by Jean Bomber were handled in the same fashion as above.
7) I also added a new "mesh" section within the scenery section for watermasks, landclass, and lod mesh.
