And I'll use this post to thank VP for his excellent work that I have enjoyed for years now.

Thanks!

Okay, so...why does the ground in those screenshots (in the OP) look so much awesomer than anything I've seen in the game?

Is that another mode/texture replacement, or...?

its my mod called Default Map Upgrade pack, updates all stock map textures:
http://www.vpmedia.eu/il2/zip/vp_new_mods_06032010.rar
the rar also includes the Building texture updates I did (both in a MODS folder which is can be files or #UP#, etc)
not tested with 4.10 patch

Wow - I'd not seen this before, somehow. This makes a HUGE difference in the visual quality of IL-2.

It's just...WOW.

Nice work! I'd specifically been looking for a 'photoreal' ground texture replacement, too, and just hadn't found one. But, here ya go! Thanks!!

(I think that really only leaves cockpit shadows as the final real immersion speedbump...)

Thanks, to be honest I like this package too smile
It was heavily inspired by the excellent Slovakia and Bessarabia textures!

But theres stuff I like even better (more photorealistic):
Donbass, Zapolare by russian aviaskins team
Westfront, Centermed maps by Gilb57

all included in UP3 + DBW combination

Hmmm. I've got UP3, but I've never tried DBW - we usually play online, and I understood that pack was for offline-only.

Small desert skinpack, unmarked skins for He-111 H-2/H-6, Fw-189A, Fi-156, Ju-87D3
This is an addon for this previous release:
http://www.mission4today.com/index.php?name=Downloads2&file=details&id=3046

These skins will be used in my Desert Beaufigter campaign remake which I'll release soon.
It will feature redko's great sandoftime map remake and the new Mk.X Beau with a rear gunner.

Few screens:

Those desert schemes are very nice. thumbsup

Is the desert Storch skin one that is included in your recent Storch pack or is it a new one?

Thanks! The desert Storch is a new skin, not in the Fi-156 pack @ m4t.
Nowdays I mostly make generic skins for the SAS F. Big Default Skin Mod(FBDSM).
I forgot to post but I made recently a patch for my stock map upgrade pack to be used with this skinmod (links at my site).

New Blenheim generic skins for the FAF:

Yesterday I also finished a mod default skinpack for RAF planes which will include

BeaufighterMk10
HALIFAX-B-Mk3
HurricaneMkIId
Magister
Mosquito_FB_MkIINF
Mosquito_FB_MkVICC
SeaFuryMkI
SeaFury_MkX
TempestFBMkII
TyphoonMkIB
TyphoonMkIBLate
Tiger Moth/U-2TM
