Akemi A6M2b-t Zero skinpack1 by UncleTgt
Updated 17-AUG-2022 to include: Alternate panel based on OH Zero panel, new airfile optimised for range & AI formation flight performance. Modified contact points, including belly landing capability (courtesy of Skylane).
This is a revision of Akemi's A6M2b-t Zero for CFS 2. The model has ben tweaked with a blue/green glass colour & slight changes to sheen using MDLmat. A semi-gloss mdl is supplied to better depict the polished alum finish used by these aircraft.
The airfile only has a description changed to read in English. The textures have been redrawn to try & match the stock textures in appearance, & depict a variety of aircraft at different times throughout their active service.
The textures supplied are: X-182 Aircraft from 3rd Ku, based at Rabaul during September '42.
F-143 Aircraft from 4th Ku fighter hikotai, flying from Rabaul circa March '42.
V-128 Aircraft of Tainan ku, flying out of Rabaul in August '42. Possibly one of Saburo Sakai's aircraft.
The 2D panel bitmap has been made WIN 7+ friendly. I combined Morton's excellent 2D panel with Akemi's VC panel view, & improved the resolution of the VC view instruments.
The dp file makes use of kelticheart's exhaust effects. It makes use of Allen's Japanese bombs, & Thicko's D4Y2 wing pylons. I converted it to read in English instead of Japanese.
To install, unzip the download to a temporary location & move/ copy files to the matching folder names inside your chosen CFS 2 install.
Thanks to: Akemi for a great series of multi-LOD aircraft.
Allen for his DOSmdlc_2, making shine & mdl size changes possible in WIN7+.
Martin Wright for so many useful tools, in this case in particular MDLmat allowing aircraft model material transparency & colour changes.
Kelticheart for his exhaust effects, & inspiration for the propeller bitmaps.
This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.
