Lodestar Updates for the L-18s and C-57 and C-60A

Models replacement folders for all models

Changes include:

1) Exhaust headers now can be textured from the winginner bmp

2) Props have been mapped so the front and rear faces are separately textured
on the parts_t.bmp

3) Parts.bmp changed to parts_t.bmp to allow alpha channel to shine the prop
blades, like for chrome.

4) engine and brake bmps adjusted but no change for you to do

5) Pilot textures for the military pilots of the C60A. The C60A is a paratroop transport and no longer has a

civilian pilot. You will need to repaint the military pilot textures for a civilian livery or use the L-18 Wright engine version.

I uploaded this the other day but not sure I posted the link.
EDIT: Just found I did post this in post#1788. :) But I added the C60A military pilot textures to this one.

Lodestar Paint Kit

Rachael,
Your paint kit is very awesome. You need to get a life. You obviously have been doing nothing but drilling holes and bucking rivets for months.

I love it.

Thanks,

Lodestar 2D Panel Updates

For those of you who use the 2D Panel, I have updated it completely.

Attached is the replacement panel folder for all Lodestars, panel.60.

Here are some screenshots of the panel and the 7 views.

There is one popup for all the radios and AP, and one for the GPS.

Of course all the alternate views are from the VC model and will show whatever livery and interior you are running.

A Lockheed "Rounder" 2d panel

Hallo,

I just mixed an background bmpfrom an older attempt to make a panel for the Lodestar with the last release for this bird.
It is just done so for fun. because I still work on the Tigercat panels
 
A Lockheed "Rounder" - 2d panel,

Hallo,

At first I will see to finish and to release my Tigercat panels.
Than perhaps I will have a second look on the Lodestar 2d panel.
I might be that I resize the whole cockpit to get more out of it.
What I must see to find enough gauges to make all the overhead switches avaible and functional.
And also it depends a bit if some more people would be interested.

Happy landings
Yours
Michael "Papi" Vader
