Fw190A early variants 2.0 released and more

I love these aircraft and Classic Hangers Hard Work...and Service

Thank you for the updates :salute: Sir

I notice some changes in the texture file regarding tail decals ...(which dont work now)

but now the next question... do the repaints work? I have not moved any yet to see?

No on both accounts.
Tail decals have moved to the new noseart texture.
The good news, I've allready seen what you're looking for and expect it to see the light of day very soon.

Third party repaints made for the Early Variants 1.x are no longer compatible since some texture coordinates have changed. This affects mostly the forward section of the aircraft, engine nacelle, upper gun cover and the inner geardoors.
There's new paintkits with the 2.0 install
 
Mathias:

The cockpit textures look fantastic! Thanks as well for the sale. I am very tempted to purchase the Early Variants. However, I would like to know if the updated version has addressed the wobble and spin issues when the engine is off. If not, are these issues present in the Late Variants? I prefer the Early Variants, but I think the wobble would be a show stopper for me. (I checked your forums and could not find the answer.)

Regards,

Major V

Hi Major V,

we have implemented a workaround with the release of the late variants that is supposed to adress the issue in at least 90% of all scenarios. Infact, I havn't heard a single complaint about it with the late variants.
The same workaround is now implemented into the early variants 2.0.
 
will download update soon as i can i am kind of not happy right now just went to redownload my bird from pilot shop at flightsim.com they want me to pay again to reup my link so i can get the update thats just wrong :a1451:
 
Mike, both FS Pilot Shop and SimMarket do not have the new files up and running yet.
If you purchased at either of the two places I'd ask for a little bit of patience, they should be ready early in the coming week. On the issue of expired downloads over there, we will sort that out, too. Nobody needs to pay twice.
 
Guys, the updated decals for early series update are ready, but I have some
problem with my Internet connection. :frown:
Will upload them as soon as resolve them.
Will be posted at Italian Wings first and then at SOH, Simviation and Fightsim.

Sorry for the delay.

Merkava,
just download the original product again from the "your account" link in the classics hangar shop (that is if you purchased at the classics hangar. The partners are not yet ready)
If you can't find your purchase history in the shop please send an e-mail to support@classics-hangar.de, if possible with the original order number and we will sort it out.

Very thank you!
Now i find correct button. :)
It's all becouse my poor english...
Thank you again.

Maybe it's "wrong qwestion" for here. Am I alone who like Early more than Later? I don't mean those outstanding models from Classics Hangar. They both are GREAT. I mean real airplanes.

Glad that it's sorted!

On the early variants, yeah, I know what you mean.
The early variants are just like the designer thought it up originally, clean lines everywhere, in and out.
The later the variants the more stuff is thrown in and moved around where functionality and budget wins over design.
Having said that, yes, I too like the early variants more from a designer's point of view.

I'm designer. :) It's the unswer.
Thank you for understanding and exploration of my "strange feel" for earler versions of German military vehicles of WWII period. Absolutelly ideal proportions, lines, corners, colors...
Do you plane to make Stuka? It's my favorite...
 
Mathias, I thought I saw a post from alx that he was going to post the new realistic tail markings on his site and several others. Is this true? I would not mind doing the change myself. Just a quick question, do I add the symbol onto the ch_fw190a4_1.dds file? This is unlike the previous version I know.

Thank, Tom
 
Hi Tom,

Alessandro has them finished however he has some problems with his internet connection. (See post 29 from this thread). Texture lay out is different after this update. Repaints for the previous early variants don't work on this version, therefore I will wait until the tail markings arrive at Italian Wings.

Cheers,
Huub

Hi Tom,

yes, Alessandro has the historically correct tail markings ready.
It's just that he experienced some connection issues today, otherwise they would allready be up at italianwings.

The insignias now go to the ch_fw190_noseart_t.dds, respectively ch_fw190_noseart2_t.dds.
Each paint has it's own noseart sheet in the texture.n folder.
There are templates in FSX_Root\Classics Hangar\Fw190A1\Paintkit.
The story with the two separate noseart sheets is that each covers a slidely different area of the fuselage.
As a repainter you would choose one that suites your needs best and leave the other out.
Usually you would go with noseart_t.dds as it suite 95% of all scenarios but there are a few paint schemes that require the use of the noseart2_t.dds.
Whatever you choose, put only one of the both textures into the texture.x folder, never both.

BTW, are you planning to update your repaints? Would sure love to see them.:jump:
Unfortunately I couldn't avoid a few remappings, but they are only minimal and affect mostly the forward section of the aircraft.
