Not very fast, but, who's in a hurry?


Recommended Posts

It's hard to be fast when you're a flying arsenal.

Also, when you look that good you want everyone to see it. :cool: -- Bob

Darren - These aren't recent releases. I thought someone might ask where i got them from. The "Yankee Lady" I downloaded from this site's library, file name of b17g_flying_fortress.zip by A F Scrub. I know he also did the other two but I have not found those files yet. I will look again today!

 

Thanks for commenting Darren!

Okay, Darren, and anybody else that might be interested. The 3 pics I have submitted were for 3 separate downloads I had on my computer. In the process for looking for file names of these downloads, I found that I could consolidate not only 3 B-17's, but 5 B-17's into 1 folder! Oh and the textures I thought were A F Scrub's actually turned out to be Gary Herbert!

 

Here's the real deal:

 

Download Lazy Lucy, file name b17g_hg.zip, this will set up your main aircraft that you will add textures to................

Download Fuddy Duddy file name b17g_gh.zip. From this you will use the texture and aircraft.cfg info and add it to the above folder

Download a 4 pack of B-17's, file name Classb17.zip. This will give you 4 textures you will add to the Lazy Lucy file above:

Ruby's Raiders, Yankee Lady, Miss Angela and Factory Stock (factory stock is actually Lazy Lucy which you can delete later after consolidating)

 

When it is all said and done you will end up with a nice collection of B-17's, (5) of them in one aircraft folder!

 

Lazy Lucy, Ruby's Raiders, Yankee Lady, Miss Angela and Fuddy Duddy. I renamed the Lazy Lucy aircraft folder to Boeing B17G Flying Fortress. Renamed texture for Lazy Lucy (texture) to texture.Lazy Lucy and renamed the aircraft.cfg texture file for Lazy Lucy to reflect the same.

 

######## Just an FYI, the Lazy Lucy download does not come with a panel, so you will need to find a panel for a 4 engine prop aircraft #######

 

Any questions, just PM me and I will try to help!

Thanks for the nice comments Larry! I only needed one of these, but hey, I got five for the price of one and they are nice to look at! I had 3 with 3 separate aircraft folders, lots of redundant files. Then Darren asked me about the paints he hadn't seen before. When I went looking for the files, I found one download of 4 B-17 aircraft, and when adding one of my paints to the four, I have 5 B-17's, no redundant files! I ended up with 2 more aircraft and managed to get rid of some redundant files at the same time!

 

Thanks again! Rick :cool:
