Version 1 of the Bomb Bay Doors mod only allowed you manual control over the bay doors in certain bombers. I'm finishing version 2 of the mod and I want to make sure I've included all bombers that should have manually controlled bay doors. Unfortunately I don't know my aircraft very well :oops:, and I need your help.

Here is the list of planes that I have in version 2 so far:

A-20
B-17
B-24
B-29
Blenheim
DO-335
Mosquito
He-111-H2
IL-10
Ju-88-A4
Me-210
Me-410
TBF/TBM

Which additional planes should have manually controlled bomb bay doors (i.e. bay doors you can open and close independently of dropping the bombs)??

Also, are there any planes on the list that should not be there?

I appreciate your feedback!

If it possible, many russian Bombers, so Pe-2, SB-2, TB-3, and IL-2 .

These planes deserve to be included in this mod :

all russian bombers (Pe-2, SB-2, TB-3...)
all Avengers
Fw-200
G4M
Ki-21

B-25

Thank you

[migojarsk]

pitty that new bomb bay door mod 1.2 is only in UI package, and I do not want to download that big thing so I suggest it could be released seperately

[F22-Raptor-2006]

Pe-3 + Pe-3 bis (one that most people don't know)
Yak9B
all DB3s (excluding the DB3T)
R-10
Su-2

that should be it including the ones others have mentioned

[Fireball]

Well...thanks!

Pretty much doubled my list in short order.

Question about the G4M...For all the loadouts I've tried, it seems that if there is actually something in the bomb bay, then the bay doors aren't there. Is that always the case?

jfloren B-25 my doors open manually!

Yeah as far as I know the G4M1 bomb doors (more a aerodynamic bomb bay cover) where only fitted for transport or recon, there doors where taken off when performing operation. Some late version of the G4M1 might of had opening fixed doors???

G4M2 did have bomb doors that opened.

Thanks for the G4M info madcat!

jfloren B-25 my doors open manually!

That was my mistake. I left the B-25 off my list of planes I already had. The B-25 has been in the mod since version 1.

What is in version 2? Do I need to re-install the Mossie again?

You do not need to install the mossie again. This should be released as seperate mod.

It is the same thing only including more planes.
