How many more of these do you have on your plate? Because before I left for Ohio for four days; I had started a Unified Art Mod to incorporate our artwork into a single coherent mod; and at the rate you keep adding new things.....

[ggm]

ryan will you be making your unified art mod as a single file or as a bundle of files... will you include the camo changes for the base files with time?

any chance of getting together a team for modding the stats?

I have been tooling with the idea of 3 unified post of "New planes", "New ships" and "New devices/LCUs" for a while...With an unified art mod, I will do it.

[MadmanRick]

Ryan,
As far as a Unified Art Mod goes, I would say go ahead and do it now. Most of the stuff that I still have on my list is either HIGHLY speculative stuff that most players wouldn't be interested in, such as:

P2V Neptune
P4M Mercator
Avro York

I've also got a ton of stuff on the list for the Second Sino-Japanese War and even earlier stuff that is technically beyond the scope of the game (much earlier). So those types probably wouldn't pertain to a unified art mod anyway.

I'm looking for some British and American aircraft in Free French livery. No hurry, just when you get around to it:

Spitfire V and VIII in AdA markings.
PBY-5 in Aeronavale markings(to replace Loire 130s).
F4F-4 Wildcat also in Aeronavale markings.
Kingfisher in Aeronavale markings.
P-40E in AdA markings.

I've got a Spit V somewhere in my art folders, a Vc with vokes filter in green/brown camo.

[DuckofTindalos]

A Frenchist one?

A Frenchist one?

oui

[MadmanRick]

Termy,
I've added the Frenchies to the list, with the exception of the Spit V. If you desire another after Dixie provides his, just let me know.

Grumman P-65 Tigercat:

What-if markings of 464th Fighter Squadron, 1945:

[RyanCrierie]

I got special permission from the original profile author to implement this in the game.

I give you people....

North American Aviation Model NA-133: Navalized P-51H Mustang!

The original design had wing-tip fuel tanks like the P-80; but the USN was very skeptical on those; so any production model would have dispensed with them.

[traskott]

Amazing job Ryan

 BTW: How the Axis Mod goes ?

[RyanCrierie]

CA-11 (redone by me) and CA-15 Kangaroo.
