Require help of a modeller - Bf-109 Idea
#1

Hi guys,

As the title says, I need the help of an experianced modeller. Two very simple tasks, but beyond me! Thanks to the work by Muas, he has provided us with two additional Bf-109G2 and G6 slots, plus a brand spanking new 109G-14A/S. My online squad is currently flying a historical campaign based on JG53 in Sicily. We are supposed to be flying 109G4s and I've been looking out for a new slot for it for a while. Thanks to Muas's mod (viewtopic.php?t=13511), this is now possible. Now, where I need help!

a) Using HunInTheSun's 109G-4 mod (viewtopic.php?t=1748), I've converted one of the G2 slots into a G-4. There is one small bug with this model. It contains the annular radio attenae and ventral mast that is on a G2. I have checked many reference photos and these features did not exist on the G-4. Having a look through all the meshes, they are located on Tail1_D0.msh (which also contains the locked tailwheel the G-4 had). If an experienced modeler is able to remove these features and send the new file to me it would be greatly appreciated! (I had no luck, haven't done any 3d work in years)

b) I've made a G2 and a G6 trop but I want to make the default skin desert camo. What files do I need to alter?

It would be great if I can sort these two minor details out. Once done I'll upload and make available. Thanks guys!

Sorry for popping in, but I think it would be an appropriate thread..Has the Erla Haube been redone by anyone so it has these annoying strips removed that block most of the FOV. They are located at front part and partially at sides on top of the canopy. Only very few of these were made and MOST canopies had these tropical sun shade screen strips not installed.

Why asking, well, the G-6Late, G-10, K-4 would get a better front up and side up view giving more SA. If anyone would do this removal of the strips..thousands of thanks Smile And yes, go with the G-4 Smile More 109's is not bad. Sorry for threadjacking Wink

Anyone at all?

It would be a very simple job for a modeller, as it is simply deleting a few vetices (both for my request and Flankers).

Bump..I know these might not be top priority but getting the MOST used Erla Haube would be great and not this curiosity we have now in ALL Erla Haube 109's..I recall somewhere than only 200-400 of these "tropical" canopies we have were ever built and even less installed..for obvious reasons.. Wink

S!

A shameless BUMP for this. People talk about historical accuracy and here is one we could get fairly easy by a modeller. There are mods done to many allied planes, that are accurate of course and this is a top wish for many LW pilot. Remove the obscuring strips from the G-6/Late, G-6/AS, G-10, G-14, K-4 cockpit frames. It would not make these planes any better in speed or anything, we would just be able to see out from the darn thing Wink
