History is history. Those who try to change it are the most dangerous of all.

Gentleman, relax. This topic has been beat to death in the IL-2 Forum. The end result was, and is, if you have the option and want to exercise it, fine. If you don't, don't. A historic FW-190 most likely has a swastika on the tail. It just does. If that doesn't suit your fancy, take it off. No harm done.

oops I guess you're right, no point in flogging a dead horse, though one could argue this is a new game and we can start again lol.

debug{
noVignette:b=no ---- can also should be no if you don't want the vignetting turned on (tested works)
swastika:b=yes ---- the important line - must be in the 'debug section' in order to work
}

Well spoken, I just went a couple rounds with my son's highschool, The new history books have almost nothing concerning WWII.
The teacher actually told me they don't want to offend people while teaching history ! I just about went off the deep end. I mean I have seen a ton of polls saying that 60% of all youth under 21 don't believe that the holocaust happened. I didn't believe those polls but now I'm starting to believe their right. I have been asking my son's friends questions here and there and most of them don't believe that the holocaust happened. Heck most of them think America faked going to the moon !
I really feel like parts of history are being slowly wiped out of education due to being politicaly correct. The teacher told me that within 4 years all the history books in the US will be like this one, so I should just get used to it.

OK guys, we are not going to go there with this. This was a subject that was debated until the point of nausea again and again in the IL2 forum, the EAW forum and the Janes WW2 Fighters forum when we had it.

deadhorse

Get it?

If you don't want the thing on your plane don't change the file. If you do then go ahead. If you want to argue the political factors of this set of pixels on an airplane go to the WCE and do it.

This is not the forum for political discussions. It can be enabled in the game so asking the question is justified. If the ability to enable it offends you then you shouldn't have bought the game.

Ohhhhhh Yeahhhhh. The IL2 forums has several threads that required neoprene suits just to enter.

It was ugly.

I enabled it, but what I get, on the tail, is an "X", not a swastika.
