Re: Gen's FIS BoX skins

I'm obviously very late to see this. Never heard of Haluter's Skin Downloader. Did I miss any discussions about this in TS or Discord in the last couple of months?

Re: Nifty Idea on IL-2 Forums

Well, I downloaded & installed latest versions of Java (64 bit as required) and PWCG. The program launched fine. I told it that I own all the planes, and was able to view all screens linked from the opening GUI screen after that. However, I'm not able to create a campaign! I can select a country...

Re: Nifty Idea on IL-2 Forums

Even 2 or 3 of us participating would be good enough for me. Glad you two feel it's worth looking into. We'll see where this goes.

Nifty Idea on IL-2 Forums

I thought this was a really creative idea worth sharing. It does require PWCG, which I haven't used much (or in years now), but he also mentions the option of doing this as a coop campaign. I had forgotten that PWCG now offers that option. From reading several of the posts discussing it, sounds like...

Re: Hello you all

Graham! I somehow missed this earlier - just don't frequent this forum nearly as often as older days. Great to hear from you. We've longed for some news of our Scottish mates, and as the others said you are dearly missed! Definitely hope you (and Mike eventually) will find your way back to joining u...

Re: Gen's FIS BoX skins

Thanks Frank!
I've downloaded those & replaced the 3 you edited.
Also about to download all of the Syndicate skins, but it looks like their link is a couple of weeks old. I suppose either they haven't found time to update them since last week, or Gary just hasn't sent you an updated link.

Re: Gen's FIS BoX skins

Frank,
Once again, primo artwork on your part there. Can't see anything I'd ask you to change on any of them, they look great!
I look forward to "wearing" them one day soon! Thanks as always for your outstanding efforts, mate.

Re: Joint COOP Session

I will be there! I know Heloego is also planning on it. Should be great fun again!

The souvenier skins sound very cool. We should spread the word about that, Frank. The boys will like it.

Re: Joint COOP Session

No problem Skydance. Just wanted to chime in & say that I really enjoyed the mission 2 weeks ago also. Great fun, and really appreciate the invitation, Vander's mission & hosting, and the patience of the Syndicate guys. Most of us are no longer flying too many hours each week for a variety o...

Re: Gen's FIS BoX skins

Like all the skins you've shown, Frank. Thanks for the newest ones! Are the wing crosses always that far in from the wingtips on the G-6, or did you just decide to move them in a bit for a unique artistic touch? Just curious. As for the Henschel, I can't think of anything that would dress it up much...

Re: Gen's FIS BoX skins

Sorted here too Frank. I happened to notice the list of guys with FI skins does not include our old friend =FI=Rambo. Not sure how you feel about skins for him, but I've noticed that he still uses the =FI= handle when he flies in the game. He seemed to disappear for a year or more, but I've seen him...

I really like both too, Frank. Each would suit certain seasons on the various maps. Very nice work as usual.

Re: Flying as a squadron

Yep, good points there all. It's certainly very possible to find a lot of success as a ground attak unit in TAW or any other server, IF your group is willing to follow some basic good tactics. Just requires a little bit of planning, then sticking to the plan as best you can. In other words, discipli...
