I've noticed an error in the gunpods when flying my FW 190 A8. What happens is that , in the game, the MK 108 cannons have a long barrel with a thick muzzle " don't know its name " in the tip and the MK 103 cannons have short barrels. They should be the opposite!  The 103 has the longer barrel ( justifying , in part, the weapon's 2000+ m. effective range) and the 108 has the short one. This problem can also be seen in the 109's and the 190 A5. Please check it out!
Also, I've noticed, flying the same plane, that one of my gunpods ( can´t remember if the 108's or the 103's) does not fire! Check that also.


I would like to solve the problems by myself but I don´t have all the knowledge for editing these new xdp's. It would also be neccesary to rename the gunpods in the weapons folder and the ballistict should be checked to make shure the pod whick looks like a 103 does not fire like a 108.

Wurger fans: if you really like the 190, there´s a great one ( based on the MS one) at Avhistory with an excellent air file and nice repaint, Though the weapons are incorrect ( It has 2x 13 mm. and 4 x 20mm. BUT, the aircraft which wore that paint scheme was an A8 R8: Experimental bomber interceptor with two MK 108's replacing the outboard cannons) Anyway, just as it is it's a great plane

When you extract the FW-190A-8, A8R4 etc files to your CFS3 aircraft folder and install, as instructed, the weapons, guns and pylon folders, the missing 103 will be fixed and show up with the 110 round load. I knew about the 30s replacing the outboard 20s, but was unsure if all had that and so never mentioned it. It is my favorite fighter at low altitudes. Since most of CFS3 is low altitude, Its my favorite in this sim. Download all the 1% planes as they are soooo superior to stock MS, that you won't want to fly the originals anymore. You can download my 41 mission (mostly FW) German missions on this sight and from Combat flight center CFS3 forum. You will need all the 1% ETO planes and Ground Crew's fine ships (easy downloads)

I think it was mentioned - just no one took any notice...

Mmmh - gunpods in CFS3. Many mistakes are localized inside of the gondola files....    
I have rework the files, but I'm not sure about the quantity of loaded ammo. Some books give me different information (and many aircraft books give NO info !).
Before I offer the update you can get a beta version - if you are interested.
