Read before install:
 
This installation will overwrite your "loading screen" and your "FokkerD7.ini" files in the Fokker D.VII folder (drive:\First Eagles install directory\Objects\Aircraft\FokkerD7). Backup these files if you want.
 
Browse to the main Folder of "First Eagles", select it, click "ok" then "next".
 
Will be created a new folder called "Jasta4Udet" with the paintscheme used by Ernst Udet in Jasta 4 (Du doch nicht!!). You can select this skin in the "Loadout" screen. Enjoy!
 
Skin created by "Killer-Ants" (Jambock__36), based on templates and existing paintschemes provided by Thirdwire and profiles by R. N. Pearson.

L63. A fictitious zeppelin for target practice. You can attempt to fly it if you wish, but don't start on the ground.

The default Fokker missions, reworked to use the Albatros. Replacement files to make the Albatros and DFW flyable are included.

New Fokker DVII and DVIIF skins for Jasta 11, which replace the stock yellow skins. Early streak camouflage fuselages and new 4-color irregular polygon camouflage on the wings. Intended not to replicate any one plane but instead give Jasta 11 a more realistic representation than do the stock skins. First skins of many to come.
 
Unzip to temporary folder and consult the READ ME.

Two missions, one by day and one by night, for 56 Squadron SE5a's to intercept Gotha bombers. These are the SPAD mission from the Gotha pack reworked.

This skin is a skin of an Albatros used by Hans Joachim von Hippel called the "Blitz".

This is an Albatros flown by forme dental assistant Paul Baumer in Jasta 5.

This skin is a skin of an Albatros D-V flown by Lieutenant Otto Konnecke.

Jasta 10 Ltn Arthur Laumann's Fokker DVII, circa August 1918. This skin features hand-made four-color irregular polygon camouflage, Heine propeller, and Laumann's personal "AL" insignia. See READ ME for install directions.

This is a skin of American ace Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker's Spad XIII. Rickenbacker raced autos on the dangerous high-banked board tracks before the war. He would go on to own and operate the Indianapolis Motor Speedway years later.
In WWI he earned 26 victories, America's highest scoring ace until WWII. This earned him the French Croix de Guerre and the Medal of Honor.

This skin is a skin of a Fokker D7 used by Wilhelm Hippert of Jast 74.

This skin is a skin of a Fokker D7 flown by Karl Schaefer in Jasta 15. Be sure to check out my other Jasta 15 matching skins.

I've gotten permission from Kesselbrut to post a version of his WW2 infantry for use in First Eagles. Here's the laundry list of odd things:
1. They're WW2 lods, so one man in each squad has a bazooka that fires as a rifle.
2. All squads, French, British, German, and American, have lods that show a tripod mounted Browning type 30 cal machine gun, although each different nationality is armed with a machine gun from the gun data ini: French, Hotchkiss; Germans, Maxims; British, Vickers; and Americans, Colt-Brownings.
3. I had to increase the rifleman's rate of fire to 30 rpm just to get the little peckerwoods to fire at all.
4. I changed the French uniform color to as close to Horizon Blue as my color blind eyes would let me, but now the Frenchman are a little pasty, and seem to have a mild sunburn. I am not a graphic artist.
5. Although I've changed the data ini weapons and detection systems to say AIR_AND_GROUND, the little jerks still just fire at each other, and I don't know why, although it might be that because of the range at which they start they are already engaged with opposing forces. This mod will give you infantry squads blazing away at each other in single missions (Army Co-operation), especially if you change the data inis of your tanks to RARE, and VERY_RARE, availabilities. And, like me, you might enjoy running the little buggers down with your prop and landing gear.
 
Just put the folders into your ground object folder and the GUNDATA.INI into your object folder and it will work. Hopefully someone will make some real WW1 infantry.

This is a skin of Frank Luke Jr.'s Spad XIII. From Arizona, he became know as "the Arizona balloon buster" for his agressive attacks on observation balloons. In only 17 days he shot down 10 balloons and four enemy aircraft. The day he was killed he downed three balloons, his plane was disabled by ground fire and was forced to land behind enemy lines. He was soon surrounded but drew his sidearm and exchanged fire before he was killed. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross and the Medal of Honor. Luke Airforce base is named in his honor.

This pack adds the SE5a 1024X768 Hangar and loading screens.

This a skin of an Albatros D-V flown by August Raben of Jasta 18.

Jagdgeschwader Nr.1 Rittmeister Manfred Albrecht Freiherr von Richthofen's Albatros D.V 2059/17, circa August 1917. This skin features "washed" national fuselage insignia, green/mauve camouflage on wings, varying shades of red from overlapped coats of paint (visible in photographs, historians theorize the nose and tail were initially painted red before the rest of the fuselage was "filled in" with a thinner, translucent coat), Garuda propeller, wooden wing roots, square fuselage footstep, and port wing footstep.

Well folks, this is my first airplane for the SF engine, and I'm hoping it'll live up to the hopes of the community. It's been alot of fun, and I hope y'all enjoy it.
 
Read the Readme.txt please.
 
EDIT:
 
Thanks to BigBouncer, who posted a great tip for increasing FPS. If you don't want to redownload the file, open up DH2.ini in the readme and change CastShadow=TRUE to Castshadow=FALSE
 
It aughta improve the FPS. :)

EDITED AND REPAINTED STOCK FIRST EAGLES DFWC V TO REPRESENT AN EARLY WAR TWO SEATER
(DFWC I) with reduced performance to match the period...
 
for use with early war aircraft etc
 
install to the objects/aircraft folder
if for example you fly a early war aircraft and select 1914-17 as the year in the mission screen..
then only aircraft of that era will be loaded into the mission
so this aircraft allows you to fly in the correct period and have some slightly more appropiate targets/enemys

Hi,
 
This paintscheme represents the Fokker E.V no.187/18 of lt.Stefan Stec from 7.Eskadra (fighter unit) in 1919.
I applied the 2-colour brush streaks on the wings. Check the readme.txt inside to get some more info about the pilot!
Thanks to Laton and VonDeutschmark for permission to upload it!

(Updated only to correct truncated website title. Actual skin unchanged.)

She's not a WWI aircraft, but she's set up for FE. Definitely Beta, but if you want something with some zip against those Fokkers, well, try her out.
