Multiple CAMOUFLAGE setting in map and default skin are poss - walter_solito - 25.02.2010

Hi mate!

I hope to have discovered an important thing:

We can set more then SUMMER/WINTER/DESERT map camouflage and default skin , we can add more customized one!

If you try is easy:

find or made a plane with all previous camouflage folder (winter+desert+summer)

edit your air.ini changing the default skin to ex. MALTA
add in that aircraftXXX/3do/plane folder a new folder named MALTA with inside a particular skin for test
edit the load.ini of a winter map naming the camouflage MALTA

If you run the QMB you can see that plane with this particular skin in the arming panel and , if you set the skin as DEFAULT , and load an unchanged map you can see the plane with the default desert or summer or winter skin (like loaded by the load.ini of that map)....BUT when you load the map whom camouflage was changed in MALTA you can see the plane flying with the particular skin you put into the aircraftXXX/3do/plane/MALTA folder

WHY this is important (at least I think so)!

Till now we have trouble setting correct skin for scenario because in the same theatre we can have different camouflage type

I use MALTA for example because we can find plane with desert camo plus other with continental or RN!

So , if we can add more choice in the map we can set better default skin and have our game running more smooth than have multiple skin loaded!

Another useful use is that making so we can have winter map with iced water (and crater on water) or set SNOW map and have still snow on the ground but liquid water everywere!!!

Hope it can be find useful!!!

cheers
