MAV unmirrored Ford Trimotor for CFS2 by UncleTgt
This is a revamp of the default FS9 Ford Trimotor for CFS2.
Due to the complex nature of the revision this is uploaded as a complete aircraft, but the design credit lies mainly with MAV, who did the scasm work to demirror the default FS9 trimotor model.
The original model has been converted for use in CFS 2, with g_lightstates & crashchecks removed, so it will work in both Free Flight and Quick Combat. Both glossy & dull mdls are supplied to better depict the polished alum & later camouflage painted finishes used by these aircraft.
A new airfile has been developed, & the dp file also has been developed with more visible damage effects, utilising cargo & CASEVAC payloads (included). It makes use of kelticheart's exhaust effects.
The 2D panel bitmap has been made WIN 7+ friendly.
The textures supplied are: A45-1 Used by the RAAF for CASEVAC flights between Port Moresby & Myola Lakes during 1942.
VH-USX Used by Guinea Airways to support Gold Mining operations around Wau. Based at Lae, it was destroyed there by the Japanese attack in March '42.
8273 USMC aircraft used in Nicaragua during 1929.
"23" Kunming One of several trimotors used by the Chinese during the 1930s.
X5000 Impressed RAF aircraft, used by 271 sqn for transport & evacuation flights to Norway & the Dunkirk perimeter during 1940.
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: Kelticheart for his exhaust effects & prop bitmaps.
MAV for the scasm work to demirror the default FS9 trimotor model.
Allen for his Making Exploding Objects using FS2002 Tools & Tutorial.
Arno Gerretsen for ModelconverterX & FXeditor, such clever & versatile tools.
This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.
