Hello all,
After the very welcome BAR OUT mod for Fw190A/D made by Fucida ,here is another BAR OUT mod for the Me109 family:
The in-cockpit rear view bug correction for the Kurfurst-4. :!:
Correcting the antenna bugs in the Me109 family:
About the antenna mast rear view bug in the Kurfurst-4 cockpit.
First,a little recall:
As you may already know,a very old graphic bug affects the rear view inside the Kurfurst-4 cockpit since the beginning of the IL2 serie.
This bug is the antenna mast that is still showing while it shouldn't... hock:
Thanks to the recent Fucida's mod for the Fw190,i could find some useful infos to use in the 109 familly as well
This correction provides a little gain to the rear visibility,as it was IRL,and makes the Erla canopy more useful than ever.
Here is the result provided by the correction:
This mod removes the antenna mast we have in the stock Me109-K4 cockpit rear view.
For those who have installed my previous mods,including the "G10 & G14 Late-War" (here) and the G10-Erla (there),in which those three planes have also the missing antenna mast,i adapted this new mod for them.
Example with my Me109-G10 Late-War:
- Outside view (See the missing antenna mast like on the K4 )
- Inside cockpit,rear view. (Tadam! )
This correction is also fully compatible with the "Clean Erla canopy windows" option i provided with my previous mods.
Photos & documents IRL about the LateWar 109s rear view:

About the uncorrect antenna type for the ingame Me109-G6/AS.
As some of you have certainly already noticed,our ingame G6/AS has a circular antenna on the fuselage roof,which is located at the second fuselage section...Like on the K4. hock:
As a Gustav model,the G6/AS goniometric antenna is normally placed on the first fuselage section,like on all the other goniometric antenna that equipped the Gustav.
Here is the correction:
This mod replaces the previous stock G6/AS circular antenna,that was historically uncorrect.
Real data about this type of antenna on the G6/AS
At 109Lair:
- Me109 G6/AS and G6/U2/AS (with GM-1 or rather MW50 like we have ingame) drawings from a right sided view.
At Me109Hangar:
- A G6/ASon a black and white photo.
- A colored profileof a G6/AS.
---------------------------
Then,
I realised an external mod still for Kurfurst-4,still inspired from real facts:
Due to the harsh and rough conditions in which Luftwaffe pilots had to take-off and land,some of them decided to remove the wheel well covers from their brand new Me109-K...
