Stationary Aircraft - duffys tavern - 11.12.2007

I was wondering: is it possible to create a mod that would allow you to change the skin on stationary aircraft? Be nice to have 109s, 88s & 111s in desert camo.

I think it has been done... (The link is inoperative) look here. I haven't tried it so I cant speak on it.. but it sounds like a goodie from the posts and definitely one of the first things I will try when the time comes. This is something that I have actually been wanting for a long long time in this sim....

Bear is correct...you use vp_media's mod to change the default skins, and voila, Stationary Aircraft are also changed.

After installing vp's mod, I created an entire E:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946_mod\files\3do\plane directory that I use whenever I am flying a desert map...I just rename the default plane folder to plane_default, and substitute the plane folder containing the desert skins...takes about 2 seconds to have correct, default desert skins on any desert map of my choosing...how kewl is that? 8)

Thank you very much.

Cheech, I started out doing that but there is another solution that takes care of it automatically.
Below is an example of filelist entries. Adding a third folder in each aircraft folder labelled "Desert" will allow you to set dedicated skins that will be selected whenever you enter a Desert or Pacific map (Works especially well with Luftwaffe types, but may become confusing with US aircraft).

:wink:

Awesome Bee...do you think you could work with vp to release this as a mod? I really think it would be greatly appreciated by the community.

- duffys tavern - 12.12.2007

I second that! Would be much appreciated.

Though, it would be REALLY cool if somehow someone could make it so you can choose specific skins for each individual aircraft, like with the non-static ones. (OK, I know it's a long shot, but that would be the coolest thing ever!) I.E. you could have an 8th AF bomber base and have B-17s from several different groups or squadrons parked on the field, or the same thing with fighters.

@ Bee

How do you change the skins for US pacific planes? I have been fiddling with it and not gotten much of anywhere. Do I use "desert"? or is it under something else like "pacific"?
