Hoooly Molly Avala, I don't know any world that can express how impatiently I'm anticipating this mod! hock: hock: :o :o
Will it contain a repaint for all of the Spitfire versions?

PS: Yes, I agree, posting these pictures were a cruel thing to do... :lol:

I think there is no big differences among them, only 1 or 2 textures, so it will be probably.
On Hurricane I did 512x512 so I was going for historical and technical accuracy mostly. These will be 1024x1024 so I have space to put some more visual thingies.

And be patient. :mrgreen:

Anz updates, Avala? A picture maybe? :oops: :roll:

[BlackDeath]

Of course, i think that the IL-2 cockpit should be repainted (and the gunner of the later series too)

Does somebody knows about some site with nice pics of a real IL-2 cockpit ??

Anz updates, Avala? A picture maybe? :oops: :roll:

Patience, young Padawan, patience.
I will post some screenshots as soon as I finish some cockpit textures (not just gauges).

To see some new pics, I would like, master! just a tiny one? just a rivet?

[Guest]

:lol:

OK,

Would the gunsight do? I have made glass more narrow via alpha channel, but can be problem with lower antialiasing, but looks better then the stock. Real one was fat but not like we have it in game.

that's nice! I'm curious about the new textures, and colors. The stock green was not very close to the RL color. And also, the stick...

[Guest]

Well, there is no need to be in RLM standard, because its German color standard (derived from railroad standard BTW).

Here is cockpit color.

http://www.simmerspaintshop.com/page-RGB-colors-UK.html

Its 9th from the top, it says:
"Aircraft Grey-green after 1940 Interior finish"

But notice that IL2 has very weird color portraying, so it's very hard to pick exact color which can be shown in-game as exact one.

[Guest]

Here is one detail; you can notice how dark it is. Just because game shows it as much brighter.




And here is good site for getting colors:

Nice!!!
Take a look at this, I'm quite happy with the cockpit in this game. It's a MKI:

Wuuuuuuw hock:
The gunsight looks so real. First I thaught it was a foto. Very good work.



This week my hobby room looked like the construction office of Mr. Kurt Tank. A lot of documents performance data of the FW-190A-3. The A-3 had a gunsight like the Bf-109F-4. You can see this on the first foto.




I remember, that there was a reworked or completly new gunsight for the Bf-109F-4. So it took a screenshot of a F4 and an A4. After this I put the gunsight of the F4 with photoshop into the cockpit of the A4. I wanted to see if the dimensions of the F4 gunsight whould work in an A4.



Now I dont know how to put this gunsight into a FW190 and I wanted to ask if there is a possibility to do this. It is not a must. There are other things to do.

One little update for Spitfire, and last one here. I will open separate thread and not stil this one anymore.

Some of the gauges and internal textures mounted (not instrument panel itself).




You can also notice that is somewhat disappointing to texturize IL2 because of its old rendering engine (I assume)

One example, this is texture in its original size, and below you can see how we approximately see it in game. It is upper left corner of the instrument panel on the big picture. In game it is unfortunately small and jagged, and I am using 16X anisotropic filtering.



In game and zoomed, therefore even better than usual look, but still little disappointing.
