Fighting Irish Forums

Folks!

First of all let me apologise for deleting the 'Gen's BOS skin' thread and all your postings. The reason for this is that all the skins I've created so far are obsolete now since I've shifted from 2048px by 2048px to 4096px by 4096px skin templates.

Due to this I'd like to present you a couple of skins I've worked on until now. In the next future I'm going to present you my skin ideas for the FIS here in the very first posting of this thread.



Here's a list of already finalized FIS aircraft paintings for you to download. If your personalized skin hasn't been released yet then drop me a line below ...

Frank, I'll have whatever you can send me, please, usual number 48.


Vin

Order taken, Vin.

Do you mind to wait a bit until I will have created skins for the different versions of the Pe-2s, the La-5 and LaGG-3? This would complete list of all aircraft I've done skins so far ...

Frank

No problem Frank, I can be patient.


Vin

You have been busy. These look great.

Haven’t used any non standard skins in BoX yet, how does that work?

Number 42, with my Nelliphant nose art if you can?

Thank you, Neill!

If you like to use a custom skin you need ...

• to have one or more in your "X:\IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles\data\graphics\skins\XX" folder.
• to choose it in the weapon screen in IL-2 BoX as followed:
  
  
  
  

I put you onto my list, Neill. As soon I'm done with the Pe-2s (35&87), the La-5FN and the LaGG-3 I'm going to work down this list ...

• Blue2
• Bluebell aka Ardmore
• Nellip

Hang in there, Neill!

Folks,

the first bundle of FIS skins has been released today. Just check the bottom of the first thread ...

Gen "It's about time!" osse

Frank, downloaded and they look terrific, thanks


Vin

Vin

You're welcome, Vin!

A second bundle of FIS skins has been released today. The aluminium version of the P-40E-1 looks a bit mat though - I still need to fiddle with it. Yet I hope you'll like the rest of them ...

Gen "14-41-42-48" osse

Frank, is it a typo for the la5-fn, as it downloads as the la5s8?


Vin

Vin

Thank you for the hint, Vin! Corrected it.

Folks,

the third and last bundle of FIS skins has been released today. There are still some skins need to be done due to missing aircraft (La-5FN series 2, U-2VS) or missing interest yet (e.g. Spitfire Mk. IXe).

Hope you like them too ...

Gen "That's enough!" osse

Picked up all the skins Frank, thank you very much, appreciate the time and effort you put in.


Vin

Thanks for posting these, Frank!
But my PW doesn't seem to be accepted.

Sorry, Dan. That's my fault. Just those who actually wanted to get those skins are able to get to the download site.

Would you like to get those skins, too?

Folks,

there are two messages I'd like to present to you:

1. I've added Heloego's skins to the collection today.
2. The IL-2 mod43 received some FI winter skins. So get your version of it, folks!
