Hercules Short-Field Capability

Description
Allows the L-100 Hercules to land on short runways, just like it was designed to do.

My first mod ever, props to ADirtySock for their Q400 fix that showed me what to do.

It looks like a Cargobob from GTA 5 xD

Part 1/3:
Hey everyone, has HeyItsMeAdam mentioned, there already are a whole bunch of good and not soo good airplane mods from TPF1. So hopefully some will be converted eventually. If not (or in case you are way too eager), there is a converter tool available over at the transport fever dot net community (main forum for the game GER/ENG). It is not that straight forward and ideally requires some understanding and previous knowledge of modding. Took me about three hours of reading into it, setup, downloading and trial and error to get the first mod running properly (the first two I chose were very old TrainFever converts, which caused many problems and took me a good while to figure out, so do not start with converted train fever mods, use some specifially made for TPF1). Also, some simply do not work, others need work in the .lua and/or .mdl files (trial and error with game crashes and error logs). So helps to know you basic way around those.

Part 2/3:
By now I managed to get A350, 747-8, A333, A332, 763, 772, 773, MD11, DC8, MD80, and a whole lot of other TPF1 mods to work (trains, trucks etc). I do however have backups of all the TPF1 Mods (inlc. workshop downloads) I have used in the past, including a big freight plane that no longer is in the workshop of the game... ;) That made my life a lot easier, like I said, some planes/mods are no longer available to download anywhere.

Part 3/3:
Speaking of the TPF.net community, they are super strict on copyrighting, which means, unless the author of the original mod is still active and gets of their bum to convert and adapt the mod for TPF2, everyone is expected to manually convert each mod for themselves. Uploads of converted TPF1 mods are not allowed (in their community, but also in steam). So basically a whole lot of time wasted because some great modders of the past are no longer active, i.e. their mods will never publicly be converted.

Having said all this: If you are super eager to get some TPF1 mods into this game, there is a way, it might just take you some time.

Actually nevermind. There is this chap known as @MJ1989 and he has a decent collection of aircraft, and also @namelessone, which only contributed three new aircraft to the original Transport Fever - Tupolev Tu-154, B747-8i and Yak-42 - while MJ1989 has done the rest. Maybe pestering the lot enough to convert these old Transport Fever planes will do the trick?

I think more planes of all sorts would be great. Don't forget the Antonovs as well HeyItsMeAdam. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how much, if any, help I would be for that project Cookie. This mod was literally just changing one word. I did actually try to get fancy and add in a passenger capability, but failed utterly.

I compiled a wishlist in the Discussion thread for that. It's long and wordy, but I'll summarise it into 8 aircraft:
B747
B767
B787
A330
A350
A380
DC-10
MD-11

Readski, it would be cool to see other cargo planes, im a 3D modeler in blender, if you would want me to help with that.
