After a compleat reinstal i get the same problem the front ark aka canopy is purple in like a half box shape but the sides are fine looks like ill be on the destracting force of hurries

Sounds like you have one or more mods conflicting.

You can test by going into your mods folder and putting a '-' in front of a mod to disable it and re-flying the Swordy (don't forget to remove the '-' afte you've finished !). At a guess I'd say it sounds like an effects or cockpit mod thats doing it. As this Plane uses the I16 pit do you have the mod of that installed ?. If so disable it.

The beta 2 has a new cockpit I believe (not the I16) so that should not be an issue? Afraid mods are a bit of a minefield for this sort of thing.

Im going to have to go hunting for this when I get home. The new cockpit looks great.

Ok Connor,

I've just put in the beta 2. Check:-

1.Have you entered the additional text into Air.ini, Planes.ru & weapons.ru ?
2. Have you extracted the 'Swordfish' folder within the dowload package into your MODS folder ?

If yes to both it sounds like a conflict.

[:FI:Armitage]

can someone post a full set of instructions to get this and isntall it?

From Scott's post above: 2. Have you extracted the 'Swordfish' folder within the download package into your MODS folder ?

Let me know when you have those two files so I can take them off.

For the Swordfish skin to appear and be used in game, you need to create the folder SwordfishMkI in your PaintScheme/skins folder.

Just installed Beta 3 over the Beta 2. Works great! Make sure you follow Falcon's instructions.
