This folder contains a repaint for the Piper L-4 Grasshopper by Flightreplicas. It shows Piper J-3C-65 F-BDTI. Built in 1945 with c/n 13181, it went to the USAAF as 45-4441, but became F-BDTI already in 1947. It is still airworthy, based at Saint Cyr l'Ecole airfield, France.   Repaint by Jan Kees Blom.

 

Note:

Some people report that my Piper Grasshopper paints are not working for them. Apparently there are two versions fort he Grasshopper in circulation, one on offer directly with Flight Replicas (where I bought it), and one available via the Marketplace.

If none of my Grasshopper paints work for you, then the problem is probably in the title of the airplane folder: For my version it says "FR_L-4H_Grasshopper_liaison", my guess is yours says " L-4_Aircraft_liaison".

 If you have this last version, the solution is relatively simple. You have to change two things in each repaint: Change one line in the aircraft.cfg, ànd one line in the texture.cfg, in both cases replacing "FR_L-4H_Grasshopper_liaison" with "L-4_aircraft_liaison" so that you get

base_container = "..\ L-4_Aircraft_liaison” in the aircraft.cfg file

and

"fallback.1=..\..\ L-4_Aircraft_liaison\texture.LD" in the texture.cfg file

Theoretically, the paints should show up then.

Sorry about this,

Jan Kees
