Not bad at all Kweassa

I checked the gauges right before I wrote the message last night, the most difficult is to alter is teh alti meter I'd say, speed gauge will take some messuring aswell. The climb rate is np, just replace 1,2,3,4 and with 5,10,15,20.

Ok, started working on the instruments. Air Speed and Altitude meter a pretty damn tricky will see what can be done about them, I'm pretty low on time when it comes to skinning these things as I learn to 3D model aswell so someone else might want to do those two and maybe improve the other instruments aswell.

The Climb indicator and two compasses are done though. Climb rate messures in M/S from at 5, 10, 15 and 20 meter.

All instruments that are worth changing are, basicly, airspeed, altitude meter, climb rate and compass. Except for that we can change some text in the planes, make it the default language for that plane.

Won't be possible to use in the MA kirin as they will belong to the terrain. Unless the MA terrains are built with metric gauges that is.

Here is the finished version of La-5FN winter camo scheme.

Since the La-5FN carries a solid color scheme, (blue-gray all around), it was the easiest to mess around with, since I'm only a beginner at visual editing tools.

If anyone might wish to use these for their personal terrain, or sake of further modification please say so!

As I've said I'm only a beginner, and basically the La-5FN is as shiny-new as if it was painted yesterday. I don't know how to apply weathering techniques on it. I'm sure someone could do a looooooot better job than this.. but I guess this is an example of how satisfactory the new TE can be!

OK. here's one for ya whiney P-38 lubbers!

Here, take yer Olive-drab and leave us in peace!

ps) Planes with complex structure like the P-38 seems to use more textures on it.

However, I've seem to have met a problem where the right ailerons remains white, even when no template whatsoever uses such color. Also, some of the protrusions, the leading edge of the wings and the canopy bars are also white. The top of the nose-cowl area is also black, and I can't seem to locate which part of the template is designated to these areas.
