The issue is that you will be the only one able to see the skins (I'm pretty sure). In ROF, the Devs collected the submitted skins then hard coded them into the game as an anti-cheat measure.

I woke up to eerie orange skies and it just barely got light enough to read a newspaper outside around noon. This is the view by Lake Merrit close to my house. The word that kept popping in my mind... "Armageddon"... which in my usual twisted way of association made me think of this classic urban legend... which lifted my spirits.... "ARMAGEDDON!" tT

The first few pretty capture the experience...

I haven't had the windows switching issue for quite some time but this is what I did when it happened regularly for me. I had 3 files saved as joy0, joy2 and joy3 since those were the ones that got scrambled and I just pasted the appropriate one in the folder. Back up your control files... i.e. current.map in \data\input for BOx in a separate folder and re-name it something else just to be safe... backup_current.map or something like that. In that file you should have inputs mapped to "joy0" "joy1", "joy3" etc. Like this for gear... action("gear","State","joy3_b6"); If your joysticks get scrambled, first go into game and identify what the new assignment is. For example, that action for gear is my throttle quadrant. If the game now wants to assign it to joy0, simply go into your backed up file (maybe make a copy just in case you mess it up) and use "ctrl F" to open a search window, type in the old assignment ... joy3 in this case and go through the text replacing joy3 with the new assignment ... joy0 (I copy joy0 to the clipboard and just use ctrl v to paste it in.(It actually goes relatively quick... faster than re-mapping in game). Re-name the file what it's game name is... in this case current.map and paste it over to the game folder allowing overwrite. All should be reassigned correctly.

Or an aircraft mechanic?

Gotta say that I'm mightily disappointed at the flight models for the supposed aerobatic planes. I can't get them (Pitts - Extra) to spin or snap roll at all (let alone any flat inverted spin... something the REAL Pitts does with little effort). I tried the Carbon Cub... no spin. Same with the C152. I tried modern and legacy FMs with no joy. Am I missing some setting? I flew around my local area and there were similarities but also glaringly weird stuff... the bridge to Alameda was COVERED in foliage (looked like something from Planet of the Apes). This happens with many urban structures. Yeah, I understand the limitations... they can't render the complete surface of the globe realistically... but the SF Bay area is a major urban site. I guess I'll hold on to it but I doubt that I'll spend much time in it.

I just discovered her... a very tasty cover...: Another one: She also did a bunch of Jim Morrison two years ago at his 75th birthday.

Damn... that's got to be disappointing! But how much more disappointing (terrifying) if it was a Pitts at 50 feet AGL over desert scrub and arroyos at Reno...

New Update IL2 - Problem with Loading of Recordings...?
Vonrd replied to Etzel's topic in Technical Support
It has always been like that, after an update your tracks become unplayable. This has been the case since the Rise Of Flight days. Have a nice day. EDIT: Just to note... the above words are a copy / paste from the 1C forum... not my words. I didn't know it had been that way since ROF -
RL ALWAYS comes first. Still hope to see you there.

Of course, register! This is not an official dead is dead event, it doesn't count to your JG1 scoring and is just a fun (though a butt killing 3 hrs each session) event.

Looking forward to meeting another pilot from the "best coast"

I answered as "either way" as did Gen and Lee so far. We have historically wound up flying as Entente as I recall.

I'd have loved to have attended this... Joe is so weird looking but soooo cool. Yeah, it's very long... almost 2 hours. At least check "Is she really going out with him" @ 1:34:00... just a delightful version. The hits are @: 4:30 15:00 43:00 1:21:00 (and that's where I stopped... still more after) BTW... he's just 3 months older than me.

It looks really good and I will probably get it but there seems to be nothing happening for equivalent opposition, i.e. the Cobra / Apache: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=243071 There is a Mod: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3308112/?sphrase_id=2685414 As for the Cobra: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=229471 This issue is where DCS somewhat falls flat for me... they bring out these amazing modules but there is no equivalent opposition or there are missing aircraft to fill the concept. i.e: MiG 21, MiG 19 needs a Phantom or Thud WWII needs dedicated ground attack aircraft / bombers. Mig 15 / F 86 is pretty good for Korean era but I'm still hoping for some carrier action. Still... the premier combat flight sim at present.

Hi Velts, I would be glad to help but The DudeWG has already done a historical skin: Here is the Albatros D.Va of Ltn. Josef Veltjens of Jasta 18 Here's the link to the thread: https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/58560-ad5-4k-skins-from-the-dude/?tab=comments#comment-916083 Do you want it with the blue fuselage with the rest as your first post? Or do you want to do the skin yourself? You could just copy / paste the Dude's fuselage over (that's what I would do... I'd just be sure to give him credit for it). Again... I'm happy to be of whatever assistance I can. EDIT: aw snap... looks like the link is dead... Here's the active links: http://www.mediafire.com/file/jz2mf8nhpy39783/AD5_J15_Veltjens.dds/file http://www.mediafire.com/file/z0g5a726e0fccju/AD5_J18_Veltjens.dds/file

Hi Gen, The germans also used a Balkenkreutz identification panel: https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/de^gvrd.html It would have to be quite a bit larger than what you have though, in order to be visible to overflying aircraft in my experience. This is on a Pz II, I think and covers the whole aft deck: https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/images/d/de^panzer.jpg

I assume you're talking about the merge. Going vertical when bounced from the 6 doesn't seem like a good idea... or am I wrong?

I count myself lucky not to be singing about the unemployment line... yet. Beautiful version by Shaw:
