Oops... file names now changed.

Here's a link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/mr9afeav4u3gvoa/AABlDus_gNS5DPZDOg_UNXopa?dl=0 I don't know why it wasn't in the Big Pack since I had it in my dds files... sorry. Since we are talking about a major revamp to the skins I'm not sure when there will be an update though.

I agree with EVERYTHING Ludwig says. My experience... Pitts S2b, Extra 300, Pilatus PC-7, L-39, Decathlon and Citabria. When I began aerobatics 4-5g sustained was my limit but after 10 or so hours I could sustain 6 easily. More than that I would fuzz out but it was not sudden and easily calmed by reducing G for just a few seconds. In the Extra we routinely pulled more than 9g momentarily. (I routinely had to do over G inspections of the Extra because they didn't re-set the G meter and I was legally bound to do it when I saw the meter pegged at 10G. Never saw any problems with the plane though... well, except for overstressed landing gear components... but that has nothing to do with Gs... it's tricky to land). I second what he says about negative Gs... it f**cn HURTS. That, I never got accustomed to. Bottom line, I think we agree that the way it's modeled is not correct... much to sudden for the GLOC in my opinion. "PS... as to the AIR COMBAT guys that take you up in a trainer and let you fly against someone else... great stuff... lots of fun, not too terribly expensive... but look up the safety record because more than a few of those operators have been involved in fatal crashes due to the aircraft breaking up from excessive G loading. Those are the companies that you won't find in business any more (spelled wrongful death lawsuit) which came after losing their aircraft." Good advice for anything related to flying. I would also suggest looking into a well reputed aerobatic flight school. Take an intro flight. The instructors are trained in how to assess the student's (passenger's) comfort level. They will gladly take it as far as you want (but if you hurl... you might be cleaning the cockpit ...

No hurling?

Been saying this since the current GLOC came out. I couldn't believe how many people defended it as "realistic". They've obviously never exceeded 1G sitting in their gaming chair...

Looks like there might be an issue with the Nvidia plugin: https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/60801-help-skinning-photoshop-alpha-channel/?tab=comments#comment-925291

Where are you putting it? For example the Alb DV goes: C:\Program Files (x86)\1C Game Studios\IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\data\graphics\skins\AlbatrosD5 I've not had much luck with the Nvidia plugin but I'm using the ancient PS CS2. I use a program called Dxtbmp for single files: https://dxtbmp.software.informer.com/4.0/ and ConvImX for batch converting http://www.mwgfx.co.uk/beta.htm (4th from the top in the list). If you attach your .dds I can take a look at it. You might be saving it as the wrong type. As I recall, there are several choices when saving with the Nvidia plugin.

Do you have any relationship with Douglass... ... just kidding. Welcome aboard Sir!

He's gonna forgive those "syphilitic parasitic critics" and get rid of his watch "cause whaddya gonna do with time after ya bought the farm?"

John Prine another victim of the COVID... such a loss... but he had cheated death before. He had cancer on the right side of his neck. He had major surgery to remove a substantial amount of diseased tissue, followed by six weeks of radiation therapy. He insisted that the surgery improved his singing voice.... He was a master lycyrist... this from "Angel From Montgomery" is so evocative: There's flies in the kitchen I can hear 'em there buzzingAnd I ain't done nothing since I woke up today I've been there... RIP John

That mask aint gonna do nothin bout the COVID... Yeah... cool

I admit that I didn't dig it at first but the horns sold me. Awesome.

Got this in my email: April 17th, 2020 Dear fighter pilots, partners and friends, The global spread of COVID-19 is affecting every single one of us.

Central time... right?

This is the skinpack and patch I made fo Black September. It should have most of the players but might be a bit out of date for some. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/yarou7bjy1maov9/AADVPApaOcSIKUoVc_kxWP3Ja?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/sh/6874foospsgrt10/AAArhsoQJLIGmBmyHesRnrVsa?dl=0 The thread on the FC forum: https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/53614-skins-for-black-september-iv/?tab=comments#comment-813636

That sounds great Heinrich. Much appreciated!

Give it a few minutes... I just placed it in Dropbox and it's still loading, it says about 10 min at this time

Lots of Flying Circus updated and added skins... too many to list: File: Flying Circus Update April 11 2020. [link removed] Added to the OP above Just a note... many of the submitted skins are 4K. I don't have the bandwidth to resize them. Please keep with the JG1 policy of submitting your skins in 2K format. Thank you.

Absolutely

Welcome Jaus! Good flying with you and looking forward to more of the same.

Ahhh.... thanks!

Looking in my files it doesn't look like I ever completed it. The screenshots were proposals. I'm not sure how soon I can get to it so it will probably be a while.

I gave it a try but when I entered to code FREEBOOKS1 it said it isn't a valid code. Maybe it hasn't been activated yet?
