Title: Think it's worth it?
Post by: USRanger on April 02, 2016, 10:09:05 AM

I love the Ju-88 & fly it all the time.  I started a new skin for it, but I wonder if it's worth the time to do it, not knowing when it will be updated from it's AH1 model.  This is as far as I've gotten, but it's a start:

I'd put money on all the AH1 models to be the first thing updated in AH3 along with any extra bugs not found during Beta. Think your better off holding fast on that....definitely a cool skin though, swear the Germans had the right idea for cool skins.

I reckon its unlikely there will be a Ju 88 upgrade for at least a couple of months after AH III comes out.

The AH Ju 88 is a pain to skin compared to more recent shapes. There are a lot of nasties like distorted textures, mirroring, stretching and overlapping patched areas.

I like it Ranger.  :aok

I say do it anyway.

Just adjust the location of your crosses - they're too far out towards the wing tips.
