Hi All,
Here's the last FM-2 I'm going to do.  With this one you'll have all the FM-2 Aces.  I'll package up the textures and get it uploaded soon.
With all the chatter about pilots lately, I was wondering if someone could place a better pilot in this aircraft.  This guy looks a little "cheesey" to me.  As I'm not the "sharpest tool in the shed" when it comes to this, hence my request.
Thanks in advance,
Bub...

This pilot figure appears to be part of the model, not a payload.   Do you have the source file, as it appears to be necessary in this case?  Huh

TR,
Unfortunatly, when I asked Gramps for the source file he no longer had it.  I thought there was a possibility to put a pilot in as a payload to overwrite the existing one.  If not, thats just how it goes.
Thanks,
Bub

We could put a slightly larger 'payload' pilot in place to cover the original, but that usually causes polygon conflicts and visual aberations.   I'll put it on my list to try.  Cool

TR,
Thanks for taking the time to look at this.  With all the other little distortions, a couple of tiny one's won't make a big difference.

Bub, haven't checked it out yet, but if there is a texture for the pilot, you can place a mask over it and he disappears.  Then you can add the Martin Wright or Mario G pilots , just to name a few.  Hope it works.
