I wish I could find the texture that controls the prop's color when stopped. It is black and should be black-green. I adjusted for such in my new propwash. The texture in the sim called prop.bmp controls the prop spinner.

Hey Cazzie,

Check this out: I changed some hard coded colors of the model! The rear of the cockpit is now Schwarzgrau, AND the prop is RLM 70: Schwarz-Grün! You'll find it in the mdl in the attachments here....

Another question, the exhaust effects in the zip are for CFS2 and do not work in FS2004, any good ideas what effect to add? Thanks in advance.

Ed

Cees, the color of the exhausts now are red/orange? Hmm, dark grey or almost black perhaps, would be hard to see the exhaust pipes if just black on black.....
 
The exhaust effects are Krazy's
there should be a gauge to use them in fs9
have not seen him in a while though

Oh my God. You guys found my plane on my FIL's website. That was the second plane I ever did. I don't have any of my old source files anymore. I'd love to find it. I also did that Ki-04. I got original prints for it from the designer in Japan. His son, a doctor and I are good friends. His father passed away some time ago. It was due to make it's first flight on the day Japan surrendered. We brought it back and it ended up covered in cement at O'Hare airport in Chicago.
 
Wow, you did find a thread from 15 years ago! Meanwhile another Heinkel He-100 D has arrived. Your model was good at its time, but people learned a lot over the years and computers got much faster, memory became cheap, which allowed more complex models.

A model by Chris Lampard and Shessi. Or actually two models as they did the Prototype and the "production" model (or was it a propaganda model?)

The difference between the He100 D & V8?
I get it that the V8 is the 8th version, is the D the 1st?

V8 means the eighth prototype. D would be the fourth production version - but I don't recall ever hearing of an A, B or C model.
 
In this case the "V" comes from "Versuchsflugzeug", a Mick already mentioned this is a prototype. The "V" as in V-1, V-2 and V-3, use near the end of the war, stood for "Vergeltungswaffen"(Weapon of retaliation)

As Mick already mentioned there were no previous production versions of the He100. There were 10 prototypes and there was a D-0 (pre) production version and the D-1, the final production version. However the entire aircraft was mainly used for propaganda purposes. The choice to use a "D " for the first production version was most likely done to mislead the enemy. In total only 25 were build, including the 10 prototypes.

The He100 was difficult to build and the German Aviation ministry wanted Heinkel to build bombers and not fighters. Heinkel also had the He280 turbojet fighter prototype already available in summer 1940! A year before the first prototype of the Me262 flew.

Cheers,
Huub
