The old WOP textures can be transfered to FSX but the prop and canopy fixes won't work. You can substitute the new VC panel texture files into your old WOP texture folders to solve the holes problem in the VC. Other than that the old WOP Pony is fine in FSX.

Regarding the WOPII textures, they should work with the updated model etc., but you may need to add a 'texture.cfg' file to each folder to identify the new glass, prop and VC files located in the new 'texture' folder. Other than copy the contents of this folder and lob them into your WOPII texture folders one at a time (the former is better and easier!)
Thanks for your help. i'll have a go soon.

Nice work there, Jkblom. Have you made any textures of present day P-51Ds, like Big Beautiful Doll, Old Crow or Ferocious Frankie? If you have can you please tell me where to find them :)

I've done Crazy Horse, VH-BOB, Excalibur, Sierra Sue, VH-AUB, NZ2415, Miss Torque, Moonbeam McSwine, February, Sizzlin Liz, Ridge Runner, Jumpin' Jacques, Damn Yankee, Marinell, Flying Dutchman and quite a few of the 357th (Mormon Mustang, Frenesi, Glamorous Glen III, Wee Willy II, Isabel III are a few). Some are made to represent the present day warbird, others the WWII original, and some both versions (Sierra Sue, Moonbeam). There may be more, but I can't remember all of them...
You can find them on sim-outhouse, look for paints by 'jankees' (http://www.sim-outhouse.com/index.php?l ... me=jankees)

There was one up for the B-17, but since Avsim is down it's unavailable. Do you have one for B-17?

Thanks, glad you like them. Both are taken in FSX of the WOPII P-51. Both paints by DaveQ.

A good font for WW2 U.S. aircraft is "stencilia-A" found here:

Is there a resistor in that system to drop the voltage for the lower speeds??
