bomb sight issue

SOH-CM-2025
In Thicko's Blenheim MK4 there is a MK IXc bombsight that comes up when I press F5, but it is over the panel in the cockpit view and I cannot get just a bomb sight view. It is always over or on top of the panel.
Any help?
 
I have tried to add the bombsight to the Blenheim panel, but it doesn´t work properly.
I copy the content of the panel config here, maybe someone can help to set it up so it works?
I would also appreciate an Explanation how to add this bombsight to other Panels.

If you are using the Mosquito bombsight try turning the angle nob with your mouse.
 
When I try this, everything disappears and I get the HUD view, without the data.. Obviously I screwed up when I added the bombsight to the panel...
 
Skylane.....

I don't know if this will help you or Highpockets, but here is what I did with the Blenhiem Mk4 when I first installed it for your Ceylon Campaign.

First I replaced the original 2d panel with Morton's panel. It like the forward view better.
Next I ditched the bombsite in favor of the Hudson bombsite.

It seems to work pretty good and I can switch to looking straight ahead or back to down with the + and - keys. Both views are through the bombsite BMP.

Here is my Panel.cfg with modifications...It took me some trial and error before I got it the way I wanted it, but it works for me.

Worthless,
thanks for this, I didn´t know that Morton has a Blenheim panel. I´ll have a look at it.
However, I like this particular bombsight best, and would like to be able to add it to all my bombers.
 
Hi Guys,

To have this bombsight work. It needs to be "window 02" and all the Aux views need added.

Here is the stock panel cfg file with the bombsight working.

I did not remove the org. bombsight I just added the working one.

Hope this helps,
B24Guy

P.S. You must also use full screen mode. This bombsight does not work in "Window mode".
 
B-24 Guy,

this was exactly the information I was looking for, thanks a lot!!

Just one more thing, where can the Mosquito Gauges be found? I have them, but if someone else also needs them?


Cheers,

I constructed the panel.cfg from your notes and found Morton's panel. Where do I get the bombsight.bmp for the Hudson to place in the Blenheim MK4? I am in uncharted territory for me!:eek:
 
Whoops, missed B-24 Guy's response to skylane. Will wait on his revamp of the panel.cfg on the Blenheim Mk 4, but would still like worthless' solution as well. Maybe I can learn something from this.

Hi Skylane,

There are two versions of the guage. The first one is included in the AF=Midway package. It does not have the adj. angle knob. It's named "bombsight.gau".
The second version came with Philippe Burnage's Mosquito. I also included it in the Overhauled TBD,B24,B25,Kate,Betty, and Avenger packs. It is named "Mosquito.gau".

Hat's off to Philippe for building this bombsight.

Regards,
B24Guy
 
Thanks again, B24Guy!
I already tried to add the bombsight to another airplane, now it works without problems!

Since I apparently don't know what I am doing, will you update the Blenheim IV panel file in your Buffaloes over Singapore campaign?
 
Highpockets,
Unzip this file and put it into the Panel Folder of your Blenheim IV, overwriting the old one.
This is exactly the same as B-24Guy posted above, but already in the form of a Panel.config file.
Additionally, I installed an autopilot, which can be brought up with the F5 key. The bombsight is activated by the small bomb icon you see on the panel.
 
Thanks skylane. I did finally get it installed properly, I think. I now need to unzip your file and over write to be sure and fly a bombing mission.

HP....
Sorry, but I must have missed your request, above. Just now saw it. Looks like you've had plenty of help. Do you still need directions for the BMP for the bombsite I use? If so I'll see if I have a copy with me. Unfortunately I am away from home where most of my files are on my desktop. I expect to return by Wednesday evening, so if I don't can't find it on my portable HD, I'll have a look when I get home.
 
Morton Panel and Mosquito gauge

I installed the Morton panel on the Mk4 Blenheim with the bombsight from the Mosquito gauge. It appears that the views from the bombsight effect the gunsight and it doesn't line up. It lines up vertically but not horizontally. The tracers hit the bottom of the gunsight. Can this be rectified? Is anyone having this problem? I like Morton's panels and it is a better fit for the MK4. Braveheart
 
Hi Braveheart77521,

Change this line in the panel.cfg file. VIEW_FORWARD_DIR=3.000, 0.000, 10.500
to
VIEW_FORWARD_DIR=6.500, 0.000, 10.500
That should fix it.

Regards,
B24Guy
