Alpha Bleu Ciel F8F Bearcat upgrade pack

Hi all,
As some of you may already know, I have been moving for flying duty to a rough, remote area, far away of civilisation. I have a limited internet access on 3.5G. I will try however to upload at least one livery so you can start enjoy it before I land a place with better connection.
Pick up the livery you like more and let me know, I'll try to upload (but I can hardly promise anything, the connection is really poor)
The other liveries will follow with a delay from 2 to 6 months.

Thai 2317 gets my vote.

LOL Lots of great choices.
While L'iguane is out of "pocket", he asked that I release the Thai 2300 livery (the only one I have) from his WIP schemes and I am trying to do that.
My issue at the moment is I only have his modified shine model of the droppable tank version (and test version of the VC based HUD).
The only remedy I can think of is to release the texture only for the model you have as I have not yet been able to contact oldliner52 to request permissions to release a modified version of the package with droppable tank and HUD.
Your thoughts?
Are you willing to test this with your current setup?
EDIT: Adding the texture here. Please test and post some screenshots so we can see how it looks

Thank you; the best I can see from your pics, everything looks good.
I now have the original model with just the shine modified. Will you please test this package and post results.
If this looks good, I will officially upload the package.
This adds the model folder and changes the cfg entry.

Thank you Sir. Okay, with that, I will do an official upload including the modified shine model. People can point the textures to either their current or new model depending on their system setup. Thank you Navtech.

Hi,
I do get a strange VC with model.f8f-2m,kind of too big of size?
Peter
Navtech, never mind the previous message.
Okay folks, I'll try to clarify that last test file I uploaded.
That model is the original ABC model mod'd for shine by L'iguane. It will not work with the new updated model I released, panel textures or folders.
If you have the original model, you could extract the basic fuselage and wing textures to use but none more.
I cannot pull down that post above because the editing time frame has passed.
The best thing to do here is ignore that test archive above and delete it from your F8F folder if you installed it.
I can release the Thai2300 texture set but is is only for the M. Shupe modified version and NOT compatible with the original ABS release.
I apologize for that confusion for any of you who tested that.

Pete, you were posting as I was posting.
The textures you have will work IF you have the my updated version.
Just change the model and panel to use the correct versions.
Like so:
[fltsim.nn]
title=F8F2 Bearcat Thai2300
sim=F8F-2
ui_manufacturer=Grumman
ui_type="Bearcat longrange"
ui_variation="Thai2300"
model=f8f-2
panel=light
sound=
texture=Thai2300
KB_checklists=
description=Thai2300 by L'iguane
atc_id=201
atc_id_color=0x00000000
atc_heavy=0
atc_id_font=Verdana,-11,1,600,0
visual_damage=0
prop_anim_ratio=-1.90
What I will do here is upload this texture only for the M. Shupe modified version that is found here:
http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforu...ction=show&sort=d&literal=1&userid=249&page=2
You will have to run this texture without L'iguane's shine modification.
I do have another updated version as a WIP with a droppable tank, rockets and bombs, an HUD, but it is not quite ready yet, and I am uncertain if permissions can be obtained.

Texture is uploaded now; keep in mind this is for FS9 and the M.Shupe mod'ed version only because of the way panel textures are managed in the package.
