This simple modification adjusts the profile of the Vc series spitfire spinners to better represent their real-life shape. To install, simply un-rar and put inside your MODS folder. This also includes Veltro's elegant fix to the too-high cockpits that the 2 cannon versions were suffering from. Combining them into one file means one mod will not exclude the other. Enjoy! :wink:

awesome job, thanks for including the cockpit fix

[FA_Cheech]

Awesome Bee :!: Nice work.

Quick question...is Veltro's MOD included in the Unified Installer, and if so what is the name? Just want to be sure we can find and remove it before installing the combined version?

[Bee]

I don't think it's in the UI, perhaps Veltro can confirm.

I don't know sincerly...... Look for your Mark.Vc folders and copy the Bee hier.him inside. You guys could have only problem if you use the Mark.Vc cockpit fix insted of my original hier.him. BTW, it shouldn't be a problem to solve it; copy and paste Bee lines in the others hier.him.

Fine work Bee.

OK, I want to make sure we get this right. If you have the Unified Installer version of the MOD, and you install Bee's Spitfire Vc fixed spinners MOD and Velto's MOD you will have the following MODS for the Vc in your MODS folder:

Spitfire Vc fixed pit
Spitfire Vc fixed spinners
Spitfire_MKVC

If we want the corrected spinners on all version of the Spitfire Mk Vc, including Veltro's new slot versions, what is the correct procedure?

Now I'm really really confused!!!

Whats Veltro's fixed pit mod? As far as I knew the only fixed Vc pits were the one I did...

Cheech asked for clarification on exactly what files and how to proceed with installation.. I'd like to bump that request.. as yet, no-one has supplied that info in an easy to understand format.. Any takers please, I'm getting the wrong cockpit view, its all *ucked up..

[Bee]

Sorry guys!

A while back, Veltro discovered that if you get the hier file of any given Vc, and locate the following lines:

[CF_D0]
Mesh CF_D0
Parent _ROOT_
Attaching 0 1 0 -1 0 0 0 0 1 0.0437 0 0

Then replace the above with the following from the 4-cannon version's Hier:

[CF_D0]
Mesh CF_D0
Parent _ROOT_
Attaching 0 1 0 -1 0 0 0 0 1 0.0437 0 0.44644

It will correct the too high cockpit of the 2-cannon versions. The same thing works for the recent Seafires. The spinner modification above already has this fix incorporated. All other cockpit fixes are then unnecessary.

[Trooper117]

Got it.. in effect, all I had to do was delete the VC cockpit fix mod as its already incorporated into the spinner fix..
