Akemi A6M2N Rufe skinpack1 by UncleTgt
Modifications 17-AUG-2022 including alternate panel based on OH Zero, new airfile & DP to mimic real-life range & improve AI formation flight behaviour
This is a revision of Akemi's A6M2N Rufe for CFS 2. The model has been 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: Y-104 Aircraft from Yokohama ku, probably destroyed at Tulagi, August '42.
YII-105 Aircraft from Kamikawa Maru's air group, circa September '42.
NI-118 Aircraft of 802ku, circa December '42.
The 2D panel bitmap has been made WIN 7+ friendly. I combined Morton's excellent 2D Zero 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.
The aircraft.cfg references one of Bill Kestell's excellent waterspray effects & this is included.
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.
