FDG2 C47 RAF CBI by UncleTgt
This is a repaint for the FDG2 C47 Skytrain for CFS 2.
A tweaked model is included, with a slight sheen & shiny glass, plus some of the vibrant purple parts that showed in the lower LODs have been recoloured.
I've revised the DP file to fix some obvious omissions & improve the visual damage effects when in combat. I also took the opportunity to add kelticheart exhaust effects.
New payloads have been added, using my own freedrop sacks, plus a resized version Shessis supply canister (80% size). For completeness the supply canister weapon is included in this zip.
This RAF Dak also ships with defensive "scare" guns in the waist. It became common in the CBI for RAF C47s to carry one or two Vickers K guns & position them in the emergency exit windows in the aircraft's waist. Using the Lewis waist guns weapons I made for the Short Empire flying boat mods we can approximate this by adding the guns to the DP. The DP file supplied reflects this arrangement.
The texture is: "G" FZ589 Used by 194 sqn RAF for supply missions & Chindit deployment & support, CBI, FEB 1944.
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: The Fightertown Design Group for the original aircraft.
Martin Wright for so many useful tools - I used MDLmat to give the glass parts some sheen.
Allen for his DOSmdlv2 - I used it to give the model a slight shine.
Kelticheart for his prop bitmap & exhaust effects.
Shessi for his droppable supply canister weapon.
This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.
