The model has new Engines with the slanted intakes and i also put on a new 3D tail based on Snickers updates with the stronger tail.

This plane will be compatible with all current P-38 schemes but will have one added thing. The currected mapping that will allow you to do more historic schemes.

This includes being able to paint the bottom of the wings and tail and the insides of the engines, also the insides of the rudder and vertical stabs.

The scheme is now on two tifs but like i said above it comepletely compatible with old schemes. You just had to make a copy of the current scheme you want to use and rename it. Simple as that! I cheated on the mapping so i hope you don't hold that against me.

Pics will be posted later tonight one i get the new model in game and get a good display scheme done.

FM touch ups will need to be done, all i'll do it adjust the HP and thats about it.

This was an unplanned project so enjoy when i release it. It should be done in a day or two. then it's back on to the real projects.
This contiunes my work in the Pacific Theater.

Yes the the current scheme you are using will work you'll just need to change the name and move it the P-38F texture folder. There may need to be some small changes made but nothing big.

I can't post a pic of the P-38F tonight since i never got around to putting it in game, but thanks to Snickers who had a working P-38L in game i ported over my new model to his plane and now we have a top notch P-38 L

I've gone and remapped the new spinner to allow more realistic P-38L spinners and i'm in the middel of finish up the model now.

I'll add new tires and then finish the release stuff like missions and hangar info then i'll release it. Then i'll finish up the P-38F stuff and release it.

Heres a pic

this shows the new model on the engines and nose. It also has the new 3D hora stab but the 3D vertical stabs aren't in game yet.

Oh, i also added the counter weights to the elevator.
