KH-B, George Beurling, 403 RCAF

VZ-W, "Pistol Packin' Momma", Ed "Lucky" Likeness, 412 RCAF

Thanks jocko,

like this skin, well done

jocko417 · August 16, 2018

Thanks! Always fun to get the history behind the aircraft. MJ627 is alive and well and flying from Biggin Hill as a two seat Spit these days.

More RCAF Spits to come.

DonJosh · August 16, 2018

did you plan to give some love to the CW version, too ;)

jocko417 · August 16, 2018

Oh yes, just may have to take a bit of artistic license, as RCAF clipped wing Spits were usually Mk.XVIEs, with or without the bubble canopy. ;)

I'm concentrating on the Canadian schemes before branching out into other nationalities, as this is obviously a popular aircraft with skinners from all countries :)

Awaiting approval...

YUM YUM , love this one too.:thumbup:

Hey, are you aware of the issue with the Beurling skin, that you missed the " around CAN so it doesn't show up to use under Canada in the ME.

jocko417 · August 17, 2018

Aww, crap... I'll get that fixed.

EDIT: Not the only one, I'm afraid... Will update all affected skins and re-post. Thanks for the heads up!

:wallbash:

All RCAF Spitfire skins checked/corrected to ensure Canada can be selected as country in Mission Editor. Sorry for the inconvenience, skins can be downloaded at links in this thread.

Bort numbers on CW Spits???

Okaaaayyy... Someone already posted a question about the BORT numbers on the Spit IX CW, does anybody know if the BORT lines in the description.lua have a different syntax, nothing I've done seems to stop this from happening:

Supposed to say AU-H, SM309 ;)

421 RCAF MK.XVIe, you'll have to imagine the broad chord rudder, and the .50s/20mm armament :)

NineLine · August 18, 2018

So it's not working the same as the full wing version?

CHSubZero · August 18, 2018

Have you cross checked with the description lua file of one of EDs CW skins? I guess the name of the DIF layer is wrong. Remember: case-sensitive

I‘ll have a look when you post your description.lua file

jocko417 · August 18, 2018

https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=218274

Bort numbers are working but appear to use the default CW skin textures for the bort areas, regardless of the true/false entry in the description, and regardless if using an empty texture file as a decal.

Took me 5 minutes to find the error (even in ED's description.lua files):

All NUMBERs are missing the suffix "_k"

Thanks! I’ll check it out when I get home tonight, have been away all weekend. I’d used uboats’ EDM extractor to look at the descr lua syntax for the CW Spit and I think it was identical to the full span Spit for the BORT number lines.

jocko417 · August 19, 2018

Much Better....

With the painted over gun patches it's almost looking like a Mk.XVIe... almost.

SM309 as flown by Richard "Hap" Beall, 1945. Serial partially obliterated by over painted Sky fuselage ID band.
