I used your skin as a basis for an European Theatre aircraft. I, also, completely refit the package with simulate VC and a revised Aircraft.cfg. If you authorize, I can upload the new package today, including both options.

OK by me!
Cool!
No-one able to tweak the static prop appearance?
I think the dp needs updating - the rear mg gunflash's are too low, & I think there are better weapon choices these days to simulate ...
Centreline pylon
1 x torpedo or 1 x 1000lb bomb, & maybe "RAF_mine", but I can't find a reference to confirm the mine payload?
Operation Tungsten references 1600lb bomb - don't know if we have one we can use ...
wing racks
6 x 250lb bombs
wings & centreline
3 x 500lb bombs
wing racks?
4 x MkVII DC (ASW) or MkXI DC (Baldy's)
Cheers

A very "brave" pilot to carrier land with a torpedo hung under the aircraft! I suspect the deck officer will give you a wave off! Get some altitude and bail out it if the torpedo is hung up and unable to release.

If it is the bomb I think (a yellow one) is very different from the US 1600 pounder perforant bomb used by Barracudas against the Tirpitz.
Bytheway, I just finished reding "Barracuda pilot". No a greta book, but some useful pieces of information. The Barracuda was easy to land in a carrier, and it was a good dive bomber and torpedo bomber. The main disatvantage was short radious, and difficult to learn to fly for pilots that came from biplanes.

Bomb Color From Scene_DB Texture
Not sure, since I don't have it installed to give you a 'live' image... but here's the DDS file converted to BMP for your viewing. Worse to worse, you COULD always repaint the bomb color to suit...

The problem is not the bomb color, but its shape. Is wrong. Here is the real thing:
Comprendo !
Ah ! I understand now.
I have an extensive collection of weapons files - let me work on finding one that is close this evening.
Worse comes to worse, perhaps one of our Bomb Gurus could "develop" one quickly for this project...?

I forgot to say that I took the default CFS1 bomb, and extracted the bgl file, modified the scam file for enlarging the bomb (lenght scale) and them rebuilt it to a bgl, but it is not the same of course. Is black for default, not green, and very large.Ah ! I understand now.

But MY GOD, that aircraft has to be the most butt-ugly one ever developed!
I suggest you look at some French 1920s and 1930s designs Pips, the Barra looks positively beautiful by comparison!
