Yashico Mitsubishi F1M2C Pete by UncleTgt

This is a revision of Yashico's Mitsubishi F1M2C Pete for CFS 2. Due to the complex nature of the revision this is uploaded as a complete aircraft, but the design credits are Yashico's.

His original model has been recoloured & shined. The glass material is clearer, & the navigation lights given a shine & transparency. A new airfile has been developed, & the dp file also has been developed with more visible damage effects, & depending on the version, uses Allen's multi-LOD IJN bombs. This version depicts the improved early model with air scoop added to the top of the engine cowling, 3 blade prop but retaining the early square frame windshield.

The 2D panel is originally by Shina, has been made WIN 7+ friendly, & recoloured to match the external paints.

The dp file makes use of kelticheart's exhaust effects.

The textures offered are: 1/200-01 - IJNS Yamato, Truk circa SEP'42.

L-2-11 - Kunikawa Maru, Solomons & Rabaul circa FEB'43.

B1-2 - IJNS Nagato, Truk, circa JUN'43.

34-002 - 934 kokutai, Ambon Island, MAR'44.

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: Yashico for a great aircraft. Although several years old, his models really do seem incredibly well crafted.

Shina for an excellent 2D Panel bitmap, that just needed re-sizing & tweaking for WIN 7+ systems.

Allen for his multi-LOD Japanese bombs.

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.

Shessi for the steer on the best material colours & properties for clearer cockpit glass for CFS2.

Kelticheart for his exhaust effects, & inspiration for the propeller bitmaps.

This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.
