EIF Walrus skin by UncleTgt.
This is a simple repaint for Mike Stones Supermarine Walrus for CFS2.
It is my impressioon of how HMS Victorious' ASR flight would have looked at the time of the Palembang raids in January 1945, prior to the application of "Star & Bar" markings to all aircraft operating with the British Pacific Fleet.
It's a very minor tweaking of the excellent BPF Walrus repaint by Watchdog 22. I've also included an alternative lower starboard wing for his PTO skin, as this should not carry the BPF star & bar roundel.
I worked on better propeller disk bitmaps so you can now have a propeller with yellow tips.
Besides the repaint I've hex edited the model to remove the "g_lightstates" cTD problem that prevented this aircraft being used in Free Flight or Quick Combat. I used MDLmat to make both MAT & a shiny version to use with pre-war aluminium dope skins.
The dp file has been redone to offer more historical loadouts.
Weapons & objects called for include:
Bismark 13's Australian aircrew, perfect for the khaki drill of the PTO, A new RAAF front gunner figure to match, Groundcrew's 120lb bomb & carriers, Bismark 13's Beuafighter bombs, British 100lb antisub bomb, and Shessi's British 250lb depth charge, plus the usual Walrus gunner & lewis guns. Everything is available at SOH.
To install, unzip the download to a temporary location & move/ copy files to the matching folder names inside your chosen CFS2 install.
Thanks to: Mike Stone for the original, & the team that did the work to get it into CFS 2, and Watchdog 22 for his first rate repaints, just meant I needed to get some different markings onto a smashing base paint.
This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.
