Lockheed PV-2 Harpoon

Hello.

I'm looking for Milton Shupe's Lookheed PV-2 Harpoon. Can anyone tell me where the download file is or maybe someone can provide me the zip link to it?.

The last I remember. Milton's PV-2 Harpoon is for FS9/FSX and it has a prop texture folder in the download for those using FSX.

Thanks for any info.

George
 
East to find.

Go to the Warbirds library. Do a Search. Enter a search for two words: Harpoon and Shupe. Make sure you select for a search for "all words". Then do the search.

Amongst the various repaints you will find the original WIP. That's the one I used to reinstall to FSX.
 
Harpoon

I did get to where the plane is.

I did download the one called Lockheed PV-2D WIP. I assume this is the correct one?.

I noticed at the bottom of the files, there is a harpoon panel. Should I be adding this panel as well?.

The original WIP includes a panel (2D and VC). The separate package is a mod by someone else. Download or not as you wish.

EDIT: I would recommend the ATTU Warrior add-on by Nigel Richards, a WIP as well.

George,

The Download Add-on description explains it pretty well:

"Pkg incl 1 model and 1 livery."

EDIT: There is a simple install readme included.
 
Sorry to reply to this topic,
I feel a little bit sad that Milton Shurpe does not seem to apreciate my panel for his really excellent Lockheed PV-2 Harpoon.
There are three main reasons why I do 2D panels of my own. the principal one ist that when I use the VC cockpit I have only half the
fps as using a 2D panel. I must say that I have only a 10 year old "steam powered" pc. The second is that I wanted a little bit
more "deepness feeling" than given by the original 2D panel. And at last also I gave it the color apropriated to my repaint as firebomber/
tanker. The VC has been also changed a bit mainly to match the colors and some minor changes in the gauges enhancement.
I join a pic of the Tanker 110 repaint.
 
Michael,

You are being overly sensitive. Please do not read that into my thinking.

I have six projects in progress and very busy with each of them. I offered some of our work to share as WIP projects, unfinished, unrefined, and not supported.

The Harpoon WIP 2D panel is temporary and will be replaced once the VC layout is done.

There are many here who do not wish to see WIP projects released, but some like to have a early look and feel.

I try not to get wrapped up in any changes or mods others do to WIP projects for their personal pleasure as its all going to change soon.
You should understand that. You stated when you wrote about this that is was for your personal use. Frankly I was surprised when you released it but is not a concern for me.
I do not recommend other peoples mods if I have not checked them out. It is not about appreciating your efforts.
 
Hallo Milton,
thank you for your reply,
allright, I certainly missunderstood when you wrote "somebody else".
I was so glad that I had finaly could do the repaint as tanker that I wanted to publish it with the apropriated panel.
As I wrote before I had some difficults to find the out how to accord the main and aft fuselage paintjob.
My panel for the harpoon is also a work in progress and may still change
For the moment the main panel for the military version is done, I now work out the radio operator post and also a radar operator post.
Before I will publish it, I might better should publish only the screenshots about this little works.
Please excuse me Milton if my reaction was not right.
Let us continue to
Have nice flights and happy landings
Yours
Michael "Papi" Vader

No problem Michael. Well, my apologies for using the term "someone else" but at the time of my original quick response, I could not recall your name.
 
Thanks Milton & Warhorse for your support.

I'm fixing to install shortly the harpoon and paints.

While I'm doing that. I noticed a couple more reply's to my topic. Where do I find the Firebomber paint that's mentioned, unless it's already in the Harpoon WIP package I downloaded last night etc?.


George
 
I now have the Harpoon installed in my FSx. I took it on a test run. it fly's as it should. My Frame rates are good etc.

There is one issue I do see. Since I am an FSX user. Is there a prop texture replacement. The props on mine are all black, probably for FS9 users. When I downloaded the WIP package. I didn't see a replacement prop texture folder for those that are FSX users.

If there is a replacement prop texture. Where can I download it etc?.

I've got one from my install. Just right click and save as.....

The only issue I encountered was the VC compass. Was that ever fixed for FSX?

The VC compass on the glare shield was not yet mapped for textures in this WIP version.

Try to enjoy what you have until we can get all the pieces parts completed. :wiggle:

It's in the library here George. Michael put a lot of work into this; it looks great but I have not had time to check it out.

Milton.


I'm having one issue with the main PV-2 WIP Harpoon. My props are all black. The spinprop texture with the plane is probably for FS9. There was no replacement prop texture for those of us that are FSX users?. is there an FSX spinprop texture available for download?.


I'm also trying to get the firebomber panel and paint installed. I have the paint added with the config entry. The paint doesn't show up for some reason?. I'm also not sure how to get the firebomber [Lights], [Fuel] and [Smokesystem] contents added, since those entry's are all ready in the main plane. Some of the contents is different etc.

George
 
George, its the prop file that came with the Harpoon I have installed.

Let me try another way.
