New Fighter Icon Series – Japan
Tired of creating your brand new Zero variant only to have to use that same old default icon? Well, not anymore! This mod adds 11 new light fighter icons for Japan: the Zero (including the A7M Reppu!), Ki-43 ‘Oscar’, Ki-61 ‘Tony’ and Ki-84 ‘Frank’. I also added a basic carrier CAS variant which the game does not include.
It has always bothered me that I have to use the same exact icon whenever I create a new variant of my aircraft. This is especially true for fighter aircraft since they are the most likely to get modified with new tech to stay ahead of opponents. I have been wanting to do this for a long time, and I finally got around to doing it. I uploaded it so everyone can enjoy!
I also added the heavy fighter aircraft icons to the pool of light aircraft icons available for the player.
* DEFAULT ICONS – Japan now has proper default icons for most all of the aircraft. No more Inter War icons for Advanced Fighter!
This mod should be compatible with most any mod.
* ‘New Fighter Icon Series’ mods will now work concurrently with one another (e.g. enabling Germany and Japan at the same time).
Thanks to the awesome advice of Ben_D, I was able to increase the compatibility of this mod, not only with other mods in the series, but it should be compatible with most other mods as well!
*This mod requires the By Blood Alone DLC
My goal is to eventually make a set for all of the major nations. I may be open to requests for specific planes (fighter planes only). Please note this is just a hobby for me, and I do this out of fun and leisure time (i.e. please do not harass me to get your request done ASAP).
Please let me know if you experience any issues. Please view the change notes to see the changes I’ve made with any updates I’ve posted.
If you like this mod, please give it a thumbs up. Thanks!
