IL2 Free Modding

[Beowolff]

we will ignore the obvious attacks, putdowns and attempts to start a fight and get us both banned, and merely continue on with our updates which is why WE are here:



this is a P-40K Kittyhawk (one of my older mods) that i've updated for 4.10 and it has the corrected wings, field added bomb shackles and bombs, and other additions/improvements. if like me, you love P-40's... this K is a nice addition to have in your game.



the small red circles show where i've worked on the gun ports in 3D...removing the actual barrels leaving just the outer shrouds, turning the fighter-bomber into a 4 machinegun model.

I have just seen an unpleasant exchange regarding the posting of a link to the PA-48 Enforcer on SAS.

Regardless of what Beowolff will try to make people believe we have no problem with the release of this mod, nor the use of any of the work involved. As the person who conceived the original idea of the contra-rotating props and undertook the majority of the 3d work on both it and the original PA-48 Enforcer, I can confirm it was freely given and its use to develop new and interesting mods is to be encouraged. It should also be noted that this mod draws heavily on the individual expertise and published work of several other contributors. This mod has not been "stolen" as is claimed, however, we did feel it was necessary to correct some factual errors and false claims relating to the credits in the original posting at SAS and this we have now done. Unfortunately it also became necessary to post a new download link for SAS members as The Senior Administrator at FreeIL2Modding has removed the access rights to his site for those identified as members of SAS.

I hope this clarifies the situation.

gentlemen, IL2 flyers, moderators...

i will 'not' be baited or drawn into answering the flame fest starting here. we've seen that route before and it gets no one, no where.

but if i must be hounded and attacked, then so be it. by all means go for it.

i had assumed that this was a neutral place where "everyone" was free to come and post good things about their work, mods, and sites with no worry of flames, slander, attack or ill will. and i still think that is so.

so i would ask the kind moderators of this site to (when they have time) please clean up this ugly mess so i can once again continue my updates in peace.

thank you all,

Beo

this project is perhaps the first jet powered seaplane in IL2 history...lol. built pretty well as an experiment work just to find out if it could be done, it handles remarkedly well both on sea and in air.

the two captured German jets are underpowered for it, but i left them like that as i figured 'if such an aircraft had been built'... it 'would' have been woefully underpowered at that early time.

still, performance is quite good though naturally slow.

it is availabe at the FM site.

here's another shot of it:

new slot and repaint to German type for the flak's old Colossus angle deck carrier...a what if.

i did the new slot and conversion, kiosk did the nice repaint. and we plan on a few more versions later on.
