Yep, hard to believe that it keeps getting pushed to the side.....

I met a colonel back around 2007 when I was still working down in Florida, that piloted a Beaufighter in WWII....

Wish I had took him up on all the photos and other stuff he offered to me, he went on to fly I think it was the B-37 then either the B-49 (or 47?)... Same type of Bomber that sits out by I-95 in GA at the Mighty 8th museum

Post by: Hajo on July 18, 2020, 08:14:53 PM: Geez.........9 years ago I along with Dan were suggesting this and with lots of information. It turned into a huge post. Look back in the archives for the post. Hundreds of replies.

Post by: Chalenge on July 18, 2020, 10:40:04 PM: I could build the model, after the sound package is complete, but I don't own the modeler HTC uses. I use 3DS Max, which allows for rigging, skinning, and so on, and also exports to what I believe HTC is using.

No, you're good. :) If anything, daydreaming about any addition, at all, is a welcome distraction, at times.

Beaufighters matter. :salute

Ask not what AH can do for you. Ask what a Beaufighter can do for AH. :old:

I've got more :aok

The Pilots Notes I purchased from a small bookshop in Britain. The Prints are just some of the few I sent to Pyro 10-11 years ago. I got the drawings and other prints from the NASM. Great Folks to deal with.

Post by: Drano on August 08, 2020, 06:19:35 PM: The Beau is in the new Tobruk thing but that's not the same game as IL-2 Great Battles. Same group of devs but separate game altogether. Think it's in the Cliffs of Dover branch.

In il2: Tobruk they have the Beau and the Dewoitine D.520. But it's a whole different type of game than AH.
If you like offline campaigns it might be worth a try.

So, do you really think I don't know how to put my sounds in that game? :devil

Did Australia introduce the Mk 21 before the war ended?
