Does anyone have any knowledge of a skin pack that would be good for MP? I have several newer players that are having difficulty with their Enemy Aircraft Recognition, and they need some help. I was thinking about looking for Red and Blue skins for all aircraft types. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

The system of tags (Heads-up display Icons) in the game can be used for this purpose.
They can be set to appear at various distances and provide various amounts of information (plane-type, red/blue, plane number, pilot name etc).

Our group uses them all the time for ease of game-play. If you choose to go "purist" and not use them, perhaps you could turn them on for training flights.

We find they work well.

We have used the custom icoons setting and find it works well. However, we tried using a generic skin last night for each side and found out that it works great. I'll post some pics.
