KM P-40Nv3 Kittyhawk RAAF Skinpack by UncleTgt
This is a collection of repaints for the Curtiss P-40Nv3 Kittyhawk made by Krystof Malinowski for CFS 2.
I've modified the cockpit glass colour & reduced the model shine. I've made the 2D panel bitmap WIN 7+ safe. I developed more payload options in the DP files, one using US Ordnance, the other using UK ordnance. See the ordnance notes for which weapon packs were used.
I changed the fuel tank set up in the airfile, because the P40N could use a ferry tank load of 2 x 200 USG drop tanks(!), & the original airfile didn't allow for this. I also adjusted section 320 (autopilot) to remove the default 700 fpm loss in altitude when engaging the autopilot.
The textures are: A29-518 LB-K, 84 sqn RAAF, Horn Island, NE Australia, October '43.
A29-529 HU-V, 78 sqn RAAF, Dobodura, PNG, February '44.
A29-819 AM-N, "Cutie Pants", 77 sqn RAAF, Nazdab, PNG, September '44.
A29-1117 SV-L "Barbara~IV", 76 sqn RAAF, Noemfoor Island, PNG, June '45.
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: Krystof Malinowski for the original P-40 aircraft series.
Allen for his DOSmdlc_2, making shine & mdl size changes possible in WIN7+.
Arno Gerretsen for ModelconverterX, such a clever & versatile tool.
Martin Wright for so many useful tools, in this case in particular MDLmat allowing aircraft model material transparency & colour changes.
Kelticheart for his prop bitmaps & exhaust effects.
This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions
