New v1.1 for the B-17E and B-17F now available!
See first post of this thread for new d/l links.
Changes in v1.1
Changed Attaching values in heir.him for cheek, nose, waist and radio room guns to prevent guns from rotating outside of fuselage.
Radio room gun made stationary. Both nose guns made stationary in PTO version of B-17E.
The no-see-through waist windows is not from my mod.
These are the original non-modded B-17F
Now you see through...
now you don't!
Here's the reason why. It's a little hard to see, but if you look closely, you can see the outline of the starboard waist window for the B-17G (which is staggered forward) is cut out from the inside of the fuselage. So, the starboard cutout is just in the wrong spot on the E and F. It's much easier to see what's going on with a skin that has markings over the area in question.
Don't expect it any time real soon (I'm slooooowly learning my way around in Gmax), but this should what some appetites:
For those that don't know, it's a PFF radome. (PFF = "Path Finder Force; H2X blind bombing radar)
