Vietnam for CFS2 Beta Release

Well, kinda need all. To start with, use what ever has the most GSL work as to avoid the long load up of some of the scenery.

I think I'll do the Hangars next. then the trucks.

Well that shows you how much I pay attention.

I have four versions of the howitzer completed. Only 3 will be stand alone models. The towed version will be used for the Trucks and for the helo payload.

I have a high fire, standard, and stowed version. I need to look up the max elevation of M101A1 on the M2A1 mount.
 
What can I say, John has done it again
These are great for WWII, Korea and the Vietnam war project.

Thank you sir,

More mail. Another batch of three for you. These are the emplacements. Two have guns, one does not.

Next I'll do the payload version for the helos. Not sure on how I want them to work. You will be able to drop them but they will do no damage. I'll have to play with them for a bit.
 
There is more to come. I'm skipping a few projects to punchout some of the smaller bits. I'm finishing the misc pack that has the antennas, round fishing boat, showers, q4radar, and the trenches. I'm doing them in this order. The models get more complex as I go along. I will come back to the trucks.
 
Antennas are sent. I'm working on the airbase.dat file. See your email for more info.

Do you have the runway lengths?
 
Hello All, I am skipping the names because I type with two fingers and I would have to sit here all night.

As large as this project has become, I have set up a Developers page, so myself or others can request help,
input or whatever on what we are all working on. This page is not open to the public but there is a link on
the very bottom of the Vietnam projects page:

Mission Writers should download the history and
pics folder below for future reference.

Plus check out the terrain in this area..WOW

N020 26 25.1999 E103 43 02.9993

We now have Two aircraft pages:

http://www.thefreeflightsite.com/Aircraft_CFS2_8.htm


And a screen shot page:

I will soon break up the Project page into the required scenery and then the additional add on scenery:

Keep it all coming guys.........I will build an entire new website for it if required.

I need a lot of help on this one:

Antonov AN2 Conversion Project:

I request help for the AN2 Project.
Click Image for larger view
It requires new paint ( all green No Markings ),
A new dp to include: DP#1, one light bomb under each wing and AK47, gun fire out
of one rear porthole window on each side.....DP#2 same AK47 setup but with two
Skvall torpedos under each wing.
I have made a 2D panel that can be tweeked,
it has a great VC panel but will need
updating for most of the gauges for CFS2
I have updated the sound file and I am sure all will like it.
Be sure to see the included history file, this is for the Lima 85 project

http://www.thefreeflightsite.com/Developer, Vietnam Projects.htm

All input and help is much appreciated, Please see the original and my included readme file.

Dave
 
Can give it a try. Don't have the weapons for the DP but could fit stock in place for now. As for the paint. Is green over all or green on the top with gray under sides?
 
Allen,

As far as the DP, the one included has no weapons in it. Not even sure it will help ??
I included it because of our previous discussion on the Wire Frames not showing up
in the DP editor.

As far as the paint...Well we have to play that off our hip. Please note the info in the
history folder and also the info in the Lima85 project posted just above the AN2 project.

I would think they would have at least painted under the wings when used for navy bombing.

Very limited info on the use of the plane in Vietnam.

Thank you for your help with this and everything you offer to the community.

Dave
 
I see.

I will take a look at the DP and see what I can do with it.

My guess with the paint is that it is like just about every other aircraft in that its under side is gray.
 
Allen,

Please see your email, Texture fix, I will upload it for all in the morning.

Sorry about that.

Dave
