I cannot see the point of having 4 slots with the P-47D, and two with the P-38J. The skins are identical in 1.28c so I assume that they were originally.

Is possible that there is another Western Europe winter terrain apart from the one in Max page? Anyone remember?
I have these Winter terrains:
Europe Winter CFS Lumpkin Europe Winter Morais Europe Winter OE Lumpkin Europe Winter Serb-Wilson21 Europe Winter2 Max188 Europe WinterV3 Wilson Europe Winter_1 Russia Winter Terrain
Running the downloaded "UAW160Ardennes.exe" (only 356 megabytes) will create a "UAW160 Ardennes" folder. It only has the essential files and folders to run the Battle of the Bulge theatre.
There is a "DSP Ardennes.exe" which will allow you to select things.
I included three winter terrain sets to choose from.
*************************************************************************************************************** For people who want to extend their existing UAW160 folder there us a download available:

Mild Winter it was the one I remembered! Great to see this one added! BTW, any idea of why I cannot hear my engine from inside the cockpit? It happens in other installs as well.
Wondering If positive criticism will be apreciatted here, I can shut up If not and still be grateful, just an example, the Fw190F8 sports Hungarian skin where it should wear a Luftwaffe skin.

Have you edited the sound levels using configuration?
There was only one FW 190F-8 skin available in the Aircraft-Inventory, and that's what I used. However I have lust done a quick conversion of Emil's 190F-8 files from 1.2 format to UAW160 format and I have it working.

In an attempt to get the planeset as close as possible to Emil's original I have made a second planeset
The one on the left is the "pnames.str" from the 1.28c version which must be the Emil's original. The one in the middle is the first UAW160 planeset for the theatre, and the one on the right is the second which I made this morning.
I cannot see the point of having 4 P-47D slots, so I moved the Arado to the fourth one which allowed me to put the 109G-14 back in the planeset in the same slot as Emil. It was not in my first planeset because I only found a good UAW160 version of the 109G-14 skin this morning. I am going to make another one for use with other theatres with a different plane on each slot. I will move the Lancaster and replace the V1.
Edit: This is what I came up with: P-38J P-38L-1 P-47C P-47D-5 Mustang III Spitfire XVI B-17G B-24D B-26C FW 190F-8 Spitfire IX Spitfire XVI Spitfire XIV Typhoon IB Tempest V Ju 88 S Bf 109G-14 Bf 109G-10(U4) Bf 109K-4 Mosquito VI A-26B Invader HE219A1n FW 190A-8 FW 190D-9 Me 262A-1 TA 152H-1 Lancaster MkIII Ar 234B-1 Mitchell II V-1 Fi-103

In many cases you can substitute one set of TPC files for another if the corresponding 3dz files mapped are the same.
So for instance, any of the 190 A series skins could be substituted for the Hungarian 190 F8. The only difference with the F8 was the deletion of the outer wing mounted 20MM cannon.
Heck, even paranoids have enemies.

BTW, is possible to get the Emil's campaigns mainscreens in Hires? They bring me back a lot of memories!
No, because of the menu system. Also increasing the size from 640x480 to 1024x768 by stretching the picture produces an image with poor quality. You can see what I did to the mainscreen to preserve its original quality.
