Dunkirk: May 1940 1.51 Upgrade

This 1.51 package includes the following upgrades to the original release:

(1) High resolution aircraft 

three Bf109s
three Bf110s
two Hurricanes
Spitfire
Ju87

The 109 models and skins are by SteveT. The 110s, Hurricanes, Spitfire, and Ju87 are by Colonel Gibbon with skins by DeanH. These models and skins (see individual readmes for details) are simply amazing work, and I cannot compliment their makers too highly. The Ju87 package includes three alternative skins by DeanH.

I made some amendments to the models to customise them for this addon. See the individual readme for the Bf109D, Hurricane, Spitfire, and Bf110 of the NVS

The Ju87 cockpit originally by SteveT has been amended for this addon by pobs to include the dive angle guide inscribed on the side cockpit panel.

The alternative Ju87 skins can be installed as required by loading in your EAW Dunkirk folder.

If you have a Glide video card you may need to install the alternative Bf109 wing files provided, in the main EAW Dunkirk folder

(2) Other Aircraft Updates

Captain Kurt’s new detailed and corrected Blenheim IV model with a new FM via Andy and Flyright.

Aussie Jim’s improvements to the Wellington skin

FreddieB’s alternative skins for the Bre693 now included in the package

Moggy’s Mediterranean alternative skin for the V156 now included in the package

(3) A new Dunkirk Sky package

These wonderful new sky files were especially done by VonBeerhofen for Dunkirk. To my mind they are uncannily realistic and add immensely to immersion.

(4) Other Improvements and Errors corrected
 
New hangar screen and main screen for flyable Ju87 missions, and Ju87 squad description corrected in the Dunkirk Manager display.

Corrected shadow problem with MB152, hardpoints problem with V156

Navigation lights added to Hi-Res Bf110 night fighter model missing from original 1.5 release.

Bf110 gun placement corrected by Flyright

Displaced squadron mission file for JG3 mission 19 replaced

Barrage balloon hit bubbles adjusted by Andy, positions at port and harbour sites adjusted.

EAW_ttd.dat edited to provide milling and marching troops on the beach tiles

Name correction to one mid-channel area: “Dunkirk Road West” becomes more properly “Snouw Bank”. All locations in the channel now designated “Channel” rather than “Fleet”.

“Mayday” removed from German speech files

Further improvements will follow, time allowing.
