I'm holding out for 'Sir' Falcon.

Gah! The rounds are reversed on the FIMet jobbie.

That's what you get for skinnin' at 3:30 in the morning.

I don't know how some of you actually fly at that time.

Thanks for the requests. Should get to them today or soonish.

Hey Stu, merry christmas and thank you very much for the skins you sent !

It's the first time since the Mods I try to install a skin.

I was a bit surprised not to find a Mig-15 oder MiG-17 folder within the skins section where to put your skin.

So I kindly ask for help. Where do I have to put the file?

Regards and have some nice holidays,
Marco

There are very many folders that need to be created for the new aircraft.

For the MiG's, make these three folders:

MiG-15(bis)
MiG-15(bis)late
MiG-17

To find all the other folder names you will need go here:

IL-2_HSFX 4.1/Files/com/maddox/il2/objects/air

Now, some of the aircraft on this list in the 'air' files may not be correct for folder naming purposes. Usually, if a name doesn't work it is because it has a forward slash in it. That's not good for a folder name, so change every forward slash with an underline.

Example:

Bf-109F-2/B_Trop

change to

Bf-109F-2_B_Trop

If that doesn't work, then ... just give up. Life shouldn't be that difficult. Go get some ice cream or get laid or sompin'.

Maeco use this little patch, It sorts out a couple of issues in HSFX and adds the folders that are missing.

Hope it helps mate

Thanks to both of you!

It did the trick !

So, it seems I have to look if there's one of those famous Falcon skins for the Sabre too :shock:

Looks really nice, Stu. Thanks again =D]
