Hi all,
New here, and this place is just what I've been looking for. Been reading for a couple of days, and still have a bunch of (goofy?) questions:
1. The main game menu & popup windows - wish i could change the color. Are they buried somewhere in one of the dll's, ore are they accessible for editing (as in files in a separate folder with non-standard extensions, or simply bitmaps or tifs I'm not finding? I know this is a bit of an odd question, but there are so many people here that seem to know IL-2 inside out...
2. Is there a faq or a thread somewhere describing the file organization, file functions & file structures? I know absolutely nothing about modding IL-2, other than skinning, so ... bear with me?
3. I'd really love to *learn* about modding, so any pointers to info, utils, instruction archives etc. would be really neat. (I'm OK in C/C++, Perl, 80xx asm (cough - reaches for geritol), photoshop, no java/java script, just to give you an idea where i'm at).
Again, this place is amazing (and humbling). Looking forward to hanging around here...
-d.
