Hi Guys,

just a heads up that a new set of 6 Messerschmitt BF109F-2 'Friedrich' have been uploaded to the CFS3 German aircraft section. Readme details below:

This download set contains files for six Messerschmitt BF109F-2 'Friedrich' aircraft from the Eastern Front 1941 through 1942. to be added to any install of CFS3, Stock, MAW, ETO, BoB, etc.
Aircraft Credits:
The initial work for this pack was completed several years ago, then sat idle until John whelan took it under his wing and organised people to finish it all off.

This Bf 109F was converted from the original DR BF 109E model made by Gerard van der Harst.
Additional modellers who added in detail to the main external model were: Mathias Pommerien, Luca Festari, Tom Faulds.
Virtual cockpit model Luca Festari, with extra model work by Tom Faulds and Rob Stevenson. (External main model cockpit and converted virtual cockpit work.)
Main model Hi Res textures by John Whelan.
Virtual Cockpit textures by John Whelan.
Mos File by Rob Stevenson.
Historical adaptation and standalones by Rob Stevenson.
Flight model by Bill Wilson
AvHistory. org Flight Model V4.00.144
AvHistory weapons and sounds.

==============================================================================================================================
Installation:
This pack consists of 4 folders worth of files.
Aircraft folder. (includes the 6x planes 1x Dr_engine_Sounds folder and 1x shared folder) simply drop these folders into your aircraft folder and allow overwrite if asked.
guns folder. (includes the files for the Mg17 and Mg151-15 armament) drop these files into your guns folder and allow overwrite if asked.
weapons folder. (includes files for the Mg17, Mg151-15, the 300l drop tank, 250kg bomb) drop these files into your weapons folder and allow overwrite if asked.
pylons folder. (includes the main pylons for the 250kg bomb and the 300l drop tank). drop these files into your pylons folder and allow overwrite if asked.
**NOTE** The included guns and weapons folder's contain the relevent AvHistory weapons files required for the Bf109F-2 if you are installing into a stock install of CFS3 or BoB addon, that does not already have the Avhistroy weapons pack loaded.
If installing into MAW, ETO, or Rising Sun addons or Stock CFS3 that has had the AvHistory weapons pack applied you "WILL" be asked to overwrite these files, as all of these addons include the AvHistory weapons pack as part of the addon.
It is safe to overwrite the existing files in your install as the included files in this pack are the most upto date versions of the AvHistory weapons pack.

For any assistance with installation please post on the Simouthouse CFS3 General Discussion forum.

==============================================================================================================================
Pilot views in game. there are 3 views
1 x Normal defualt pilot view looking over the top 3rd of the instrument panel through the gun site.
2 x Instrument view, looking down with instrument panel filling screen.
3 x Pilot view with a wide feild of view.
hitting F6 will cycle through the various views in the order outlined above.
The defualt pilot view was set to give both a good field of vision and the best frame rates possible. The VC is a very complicated model; on the test PC setting the defualt view with only minimal instrument panel in sight gave a 10 FPS increase compared to a more common CFS3 field of view were the top half of the instrument panel is in view.
For those whol like the wider field of view you can fly in position 3 as outlined above. guns sight anilgment works in both pilot views.

I've got my copy! Been looking forward to this one. Well done.:salute: Are there plans to broaden the skin selection to Western Europe or the Mediterranean?

josepicos, you can always try, but I don't think it is compatible with that model.

Is it possible or ok to implant the V/C into Ndickis 109(this V/C is the bomb!!)???

Cough cough cough! Splutter splutter cough! I wouldn't recommend it, Nigel's Bf109s are the stock MS model and there are issues with trying that - mostly to do with the fit.

Thank you again Luca for the fun of working with your model! :icon29::icon29::icon29:
 
It took a while Luca, but finally got them out there!:mixedsmi:

The Tropical versions will be released next, then I'll do more skins for ETO, and more MTO!

Big thanks to the guys who helped me sort this out, very much appreciated!

Here's a couple of MTO schemes to come, on the proper Trop version!

Good to see you around here again Luca!! In fact got wondering what you have been up to lately, especially after I found a certain Ju 88 file you sent me years ago!:icon_lol:

Scotty! I'm always lurking but seldomly posting. Been having nasty health issues lately and I find it difficult to even think of opening 3d apps.:blind:

I'm glad you liked it, kudos to you, Tom. It's always somewhat of a pain working with someone else's work but you managed it wonderfully!

Thanks to you, John and Rob for bringing it finally to life! You do really keep CFS3 alive!:medals::medals:
 
I've noticed that some of the interior textures look a bit pixelated. If they were converted to .dds using Martin Wright's program this happens sometimes. If one of you has a set of .bmp files for the texture and can send them to me I can get that fixed. PM me if you need my address. BTW I love the grey cockpit textures, would they be historically correct for the Emil pit as well?

Not when the work is properly done and organised in a meaningful hierarchy: all I had to do was some shuffling of objects from the Emil. (I might have picked up a few mapping tricks from the VC, but all the stacks were already collapsed... never mind, I have other sources! :mixedsmi: )

Hi Daniel,

I have uploaded to your folder on the FTP sites the VC templates for the 109F there Paintshop pro files but photoshop will open them. You'll see by the layers how I did it, used Johns original works for the E and F pits and mixed and matched and recoloured to get all the bits coloured up.

Not sure if the grey woul dbe strictly correct for the E model.

regards Rob.
 
Hi Rob,

Unfortunately I don't have either program and can't open those files. I do have paint.net which can open .psd and .pdn files if you can save them in either of those formats. Thanks,

Daniel
