Akemi D3A1 Val skinpack1 by UncleTgt
Updated 17-AUG-2022. Changes are: new airfile & aircraft.cfg to allow player to start engine by pressing "E". Optimised range & AI formation flight behaviour.
This is a revision of Akemi's D3A1 Val for CFS 2. The model has been tweaked with a blue/green glass colour & slight changes to sheen using MDLmat.
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: EII-235 Aircraft from Zuikaku's air group, May '42.
EII-235 Aircraft from Zuikaku's air group, August '42.
EII-208 Aircraft from Zuikaku circa October '42. This a/c should really be a D3A2 model.
DII-215 Aircraft based on Junyo, October '42.
The 2D panel bitmap has been made WIN 7+ friendly. I combined Shina'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. 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.
