A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Aircraft - Yashico legacy

Description: Yashico Mitsubishi F1M2A Pete by UncleTgt

This is a revision of Yashico's Mitsubishi F1M2A Pete for CFS 2. Due to the complex nature of the revision this is uploaded as a complete aircraft, but the design credits are Yashico's.

His original model has been recoloured & shined. The glass material is clearer, & the navigation lights given a shine & transparency. A new airfile has been developed, & the dp file also has been developed with more visible damage effects, & depending on the version, uses Allen's multi-LOD IJN bombs. This version depicts the very early model with 2 blade prop & early square frame windshield.

The 2D panel is originally by Shina, has been made WIN 7+ friendly, & recoloured to match the external paint.

The dp file makes use of kelticheart's exhaust effects.

The textures offered are: 19 ku, Kwajalein Atoll, DEC'41, and Chitose Airgroup, DEC'41.

To install, unzip the download to a temporary location & move/ copy files to the matching folder names inside your chosen CFS2 install.

Thanks to: Yashico for a great aircraft. Although several year's old, his models really do seem incredibly well crafted.

Shina for an excellent 2D Panel bitmap, that just needed re-sizing & tweaking for WIN 7+ systems.

Allen for his multi-LOD Japanese bombs.

Allen for his DOSmdlc_2, making shine & mdl size changes possible in WIN7+.

Martin Wright for so many useful tools, in this case in particular MDLmat allowing aircraft model material transparency & colour changes.

Shessi for the steer on the best material colours & properties for clearer cockpit glass for CFS2.

Kelticheart for his exhaust effects, & inspiration for the propeller bitmaps.

This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.

UncleTgt,

Yet another outstanding example of your and Yashico's work, many thanks! :wavey:
 
This is nice! The only Pete I knew of was the FS98 model that has been around since the start of CFS2.
 
Note: easier start airfile added

I noticed that engine start could be a little bit hit & miss, so I've updated the zipfile with an easier to start airfile.

For those that have already downloaded, the airfile is attached here.

Yashico's later Pete variants will be receiving some attention in due course:running:

John,

So in other words, you just sprayed a little ether in the carb? :costumed-smiley-034
