Modifying the Spit IX gunsight Reticles with Gyro Mod - Guest - 04.12.2007

Please read...

I just want to get this clear for the Reticle modders out there Smile

If you want to modify the reticles for this mod & submit them here the following info may be usefull

This mod-pack also includes a Reticle for the Spitfire MK.IXc 1943 which does NOT use the MkII Gyro Gunsight included in this mod. I had to do this as all spit Mk-IX's share the 'SpitfireMkIXc' Cockpit & because the IXC is an ealier version & did not come out of production with a MkII gyro, i needed to create an independent Reticle to go with the older GM2 gunsight for the IXC, so i called this Reticle Retinew.tga.

All the different MkIX models have independent 'hier.him' files however the following models share the indicated Reticle.tga marked in red.

Spitfire L.F. MK.IXc (CW) 1944
Spitfire MK.IXe 1944
Spitfire L.F. MK.IXe (CW) 1944
Spitfire H.F. MK.IXe 1944
Spitfire MK.IX 25Lbs 1944
= Reticle.tga

Spitfire MK.IXc 1943
= Retinew.tga

so...
if you want to modify reticles for L.F. MK.IXc (CW) , MK.IXe 1944 ,L.F. MK.IXe (CW) , H.F. MK.IXe & MK.IX 25Lbs you need to modify 'Reticle.tga'

&
if you want to modify reticle for the Spitfire MK.IXc, 1943 you will need to modify 'Retinew.tga'

Hope thats nice & clear Smile

Should the Mustang III also be fitted with this gunsight? It was used in 1944-45 by the RAF so this makes sense. I'm no expert, maybe someone can verify this.
