I have a question, and apologies if it has already been asked before, but I find no reference in the forum ...

Is it possible to use custom skins in the campaign? if so how?

Yes it is lecrop. They need to be the same size and DXT1 format as the sim uses, must be named in the same fashion, and placed in the "skins" folder inside the "campaign" folder. You should then see them in the drop down list of available skins when you are in the campaign.

To select your personalised skin, you need to click in the campaign manager
on the black panel "Loadout and fuel" in the bottom right corner, lecrop.
Then opens a frame for selecting the fuel amounts for all flyers in the flight,
and a frame for selecting a skin. Good luck!

Welcome to the wonderful world of skinning in WOFF, lecrop. Here is the full path for the location where you need to place your finished skins: campaigns\CampaignData\skins. Like Lou stated they need to be saved with a DDS extension using the DTX1 format. They also need to be saved as 24 bit images. Rick is the resident skinning pro and he has created a wonderful skinning tutorial that you should read, it will help a lot.

Thank you very much guys!!

Until May 8 I can't fly, because it is assumed that my pilot has been captured by the enemy, and will not run away until tomorrow, and something I have to do to entertain myself skyisfalling

Rick_Rawlings did an excellent tutorial that you may find useful. I certainly did.

It has its own thread, but here's a link.

Is it also possible to ad selfmade skins to your squadron or to your opposite jasta.
