Vickers Wellesley

Wellesley Mk.I LRDU L2680

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Military skins - World War II

Description: This package contains a repaint depicting the Vickers Wesseley Mk.I LRDU L2680 flown by Flt.Lt. A.N. Combe, during the long-distance record-breaking flight between Isamlia (Egypt) and Darwin (Australia) in November 1938. To use these textures you should have the CFS2 version Vickers Wesseley LRDU by Jeff "Jed" Marsh installed in FS2004. This model works flawless in FS9 and is available in the library of the Sim-Outhouse. An alternative panel configuration file is included, which will sharpen the gauges in the VC in FS2004.


A small warning; Jeff has done this model with authentic fuel capacity, which will bring the aircraft well over its maximum allowed load from a normal Wellesley. It therefore is quite challenging to fly this aircraft with full tanks.


Credits go to Jeff "Jed" Marsh from Padbury aircraft for making this wonderful model, to Martin Wright for his dtxbmp tool, whithout which these textures wouldn't exist and to Shessi for making me do this repaint.


This should be it.


Enjoy

The repaint for the long range version is available.

As the title already explained I have uploaded a repaint for the Jed's long Range version of the Wellesley. Jeff Marsh has done this model with the fuel capacity for the long distance record braking flight. So you will need quite some runway to take off and the aircraft is difficult to handle with all tanks filled. All those, who plan to fly from Ismalia to Darwin, I wish you luck!

Cheers,
Huub

Thanks, but a question , is it possible in fs9 to get rid of the Lod model for cfs2 .?
Click to expand...

Are the Lods causing any problem? I have both the FS9 as the CFS2 version of this model and at first glance the .mdl look exactly the same. Although I don't know which version I have installed, but I can assure you, I don't have any problems with the model.

Cheers,
Huub
 
Thanks for the nice words guys and I'm glad you like Shessi, as you were the one who told me wee needed this repaint :biggrin-new:

Cheers,

You're getting better and better Huub....:applause:

The shadowing of the stretched fabric over the geodetic frame is superb, gives it a real 3D effect.


And see folks, this is a great example of taking an old model and breathing new life into it, making it far more useable and improving the quality of Fs2004.

Cheers

The LOD's make this a pretty good candidate for AI also.

As for removing them, possible, technically possible, yes. Easy, not really without a decent amount of time and decent knowledge of MCX/FSDX/GMAX/SCASM/HEX/ETC. Not sure anyone would volunteer (I wouldn't, lol) as the LOD's shouldn't really cause much of a problem, if any.

Hi guys,
The LRDU skin download has a folder for an alt_panel...
This folder is empty without a panel.cfg

Just asking?
 
Oops Robin. An alternative panel configuration file should have been there. I did change the resolution from the VC from 512x512 to 1024x1024, to make the gauges sharper. But i'm convinced you can do this yourself as well

Just overwrite the Vcockpit01 section in the panel configuration file with the text below.

[Vcockpit01]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=512,512
position=7
visible=0
ident=
pixel_size=1024,1024
texture=$wellesleyM


gauge00=hurricane_1!Airspeed, 182,41,45,42
gauge01=hurricane_1!Attitude, 230,40,45,42
gauge02=hurricane_1!Altimeter, 185,85,40,38
gauge03=hurricane_1!Heading_Indicator, 232,83,40,52
gauge04=hurricane_1!Turn_Indicator, 279,81,50,47
gauge05=hurricane_1!Vertical_Speed, 281,40,45,42
gauge06=hurricane_1!Boost_Pressure, 135,111,30,28
gauge07=hurricane_1!Tachometer, 130,74,35,32
gauge08=hurricane_1!Magneto, 115,110,17,27
gauge09=hurricane_1!Flaps, 104,112,10,25
gauge10=hurricane_1!Clock, 107,87,24,20
gauge11=f4u1a_corsair!Fuel_Quantity, 345,111,30,28
gauge12=f4u1a_corsair!Fuel_Selector, 375,111,30,28
gauge13=f4f4_wildcat!Cylinder-Temperature, 345,80,30,28

Sorry for the inconvenience,

Huub

Thanks, Pete, yep, I did read the Readme, explaining about an alternative panel.cfg, that was not included in the download. (I did NOT read anything about an alternative panel bitmap!),

Anyway, thanks, Huub :applause: for a great paint & the panel.cfg

Thanks, Andy.
Dunno what happened, but I just could not find them before..
Am I correct in finding the Wellesley Mk1 & the Mk1 (LRF) for CSF2 & then the 2 Huub paints?
