Hi chaps,

Thought you might like to see some W.I.P screenshots from my Multiskin He-111s which I hope to get in the next Multiskin version 2.10















Cheers

Aces

Hi chaps,

An update for you, I've finished the He-111 and Do-17 and nearly finished the Ju-88.



Cheers

Yes, some really nice work here from Aces. All good stuff to add into 2.10, which is about a month away, I'd guess.

Top Hole!

Hi Paul,

Great to hear from you mate. We are all well thank you, the cats are very happy in our new home, finally got out of the renting trap 3 months ago and bought a flat and we are all nicely settled in. I hope that you and your family are well mate.

Cheers and TTFN

Leigh

Hi chaps,

After a solid week of "nose to the grindstone" I bring you a virtual bomber-fest of new screenshots:

A Dornier 17 of 5th Staffel KG2 sporting 2nd Gruppe red noseband



Another Do-17 of 6th Staffel KG76 sporting 2nd Gruppe red fuselage band



and now for a couple of Ju-88s, first a KG54 2nd Gruppe Stab aircraft with coloured fuselage band and white/red spinners



and an 8th Staffel KG51 machine sporting 3rd Gruppe yellow engine cowling.



and finally (for now) two He-111s, first a KG27 machine showing some new super detail



and a 2nd Staffel KG55 aircraft showing single under-wing letters and painted out areas on the wing where the full ID code was previously painted as I've seen more BoB era units with a single letter code than the full code .



I guess that I'm about 95% finished, still got a little left to explore but all the units and the markings are done and should be finished sometime later this coming week.

Wir Kommen!!





Cheers for now

Aces

Good day chaps,

This evening I shall be posting what wll probably be the last pre-release screenshots as I am very nearly finished with this work and in the last 24 hours have solved two out of three of my outstanding "issues" and completed the last of the graphics and coding so will be spending the next few evening testing and preparing to bundle everything up and send it over to BDG for further testing etc.



What you get:

Correct Geschwader/Staffel/Aircraft fuselage and under-wing codes on all twin-engined bomber aircraft.
Port and Starboard (independant) unit emblems on all twin-engined bomber aircraft.
Historical unit-specific (and aircraft-specific) markings such as coloured prop spinners, rudders; fuselage and nose markings, engine cowlings.
Added super-detail aircraft skins for Ju-88, He-111 and Do-17.

I have coded the multi-skin files to allow for future development to update at a later date in light of further historical research.

This has been a fun project, a lot of work and a steep learning curve especially within the timescale available but nethertheless enjoyable and I hope fruitful. I'd like to take the opportunity of thanking Bader, Osram, Stickman, Redband-151 and others on this board for all their help.

I hope you enjoy using the new Multi-skin Bombers.


Cheers

Aces

I don`t know how many of you guys have heard of "Aces" and what he did for IL2 with the IL2 MAT MANAGER,if you haven`t you are in for a treat!
You can expect every German bomber to have EVERY marking,code colour,fuselage emblems,just everything 100% correct for that time period of BOB Wings of Victory.
I have known Leigh for a number of years and his work for IL2 was just absolutely amazing (not forgetting Grat) not only German bombers were correctly identified but markings for all flyable aircraft from all airforces that fought in WW2 in all areas.
Honestly with just the addition of this multiskin pack alone my hard drive will have BOB WoV reinstalled with the next patch.

Cheers me dears !!
