Here is a small trick to have your personal plane (and your wingmen's too, if you wish) always display the same fuselage emblem(s) you have chosen from mission to mission during a campaign in First Eagles 1. It will require a little work in installation for every concerned skin, and a few manips before each mission.

This is a complete set of letter decals for the Phönix D.II. You can assign them in the Loadout screen or the game will randomly assign a different one to each plane.
 
This completely replaces the "D" folder and uses a new Decals.ini and Numbers.lst for the skins.
 
I have also uploaded a new version of the Phönix which includes this decal set, so if you downloaded the Phönix D.II after September 20, 2011, you already have these decals.
 
 
Installation Instructions
For FE1 - Unzip the file. In the FirstEagles/Objects/Aircraft/PhoenixD2 folder, delete the folder named "D" and replace it with the new one. Next, open the folder named "Texture1". Delete the file named "Decals.ini" and move both the new Decals.ini and Numbers.lst into the folder. Do not delete any other files from the Texture1 folder.
 
For FE2 - Unzip the file. In the FirstEagles/Objects/Decals/PhoenixD2 folder, delete the "D" folder and replace it with the new one. Next, open the FirstEagles/Objects/Aircraft/PhoenixD2/Texture1 folder. Delete the file named "Decals.ini" and move the new Decals.ini and Numbers.lst into the folder. Do not delete any other files from the Texture1 folder.

This is a complete set of serial number decals for the Lloyd C.II. The game will randomly assign a different number to each plane.
 
This completely replaces the "D" folder in the Austro-Hungarian skin and uses a new Decals.ini for the skin.

A set of skins and some file tweaks by Sinbad and Stephen1918 for Laton's MS Type H, MS Type L and Pfalz E.III. You must have Laton's planes in order for these to work.
 
This download includes - skins for the Eastern front for all the planes - new loadouts, which place the bombs alongside the fuselage for the MS Type L and the Pfalz E.III - a new unarmed version of the MS Type L - new ini files for all the planes which update the way shadows are generated - and new Loading and Hanger screens for all the planes.
 
 
Installation instructions:
If you haven't already, download and install the three planes from the CombatACE Download area. (The MS Type L and the Pfalz E.III are each part of a combo pack.)
 
After the planes are installed, make a copy of the entire "MSTypeL" folder and rename it "MSTypeL_Recon". You will be installing new ini files for this folder later.
 
My install will replace some of the original files - you might want to make backups before you proceed.
 
 
For FE1 - Open each of my plane folders and copy the contents into the appropriate folders in your FirstEagles/Objects/Aircraft folder. Click "Yes" when it asks if you want to replace an existing file.
 
For FE2 - Open each of my plane folders and copy the contents into the appropriate folders in your FirstEagles/Objects/Aircraft folder. Click "Yes" when it asks if you want to replace an existing file.

This is a few skins for the Eastern Front - I have included two balloons for the Russians, based on the two balloons that come with First Eagles. And I have made three skins each for the stock SPAD 7 and the SPAD 13.
 
The Caquot style balloon was pretty common in WWI so I made one for the Russians. The kite style balloon (the "Drachen" balloon in the game) was also a common balloon and the Russians purchased several of them from the Parseval-Siegsfeld Company in Germany before the war.
 
The plane skins are a slight rework of the stock tan skins, most of the change is in the decal placements. I have included decals for some of the Russian squadrons, and I eliminated squadron markings and flight numbers. (One of the SPAD 7 skins uses the SPAD 13 serial numbers because I couldn't find the SPAD 7 numbers in FE Gold.)
 
The plane skins should work with any of the modded SPADs that use the stock LODs from First Eagles.
 
The actual skins for each plane are the same, so to save download time, I only included one set with each plane. You will have to copy the 6 bmp files and paste them into the other two folders for each plane.

A set of skins and some file tweaks for Bortdafarm's OefAlbatrosDII, HalberstadtDII, and Farman MF11c. You must have Bortdafarm's planes in order for these to work.
 
For the Albatros DII, I have made three skins, one plain linen and two camo schemes. I have also included a new ini file which updates the way shadows are generated. Some of the parts were almost impossible to skin, so I have made decals to cover the entire part. It's kind of a clunky way to work, but the results are pretty good. (Note - The Albatros DII had a wooden stabilizer at the tail, I could not get the wood to look right, so used linen instead.)
 
For the Halberstadt DII, I have made a green/mauve camo scheme. This plane also required decals to cover some of the parts. And this one also has a new ini file to change the shadows.
 
For the Farman MF11c, I have made a new linen skin with a set of decals for the Russians. I have included Peter01's FM, which I have modded to take an external bomb load.
 
Bortdafarm made several versions of each of his planes, I haven't tested them, but I think these skins will work with some the other versions.

Then in your FirstEagles/Objects/Decals folder, make new folders for each of the planes. Folder names must be identical to the folder names in your Aircraft folder. Move the "D" folder from each of the Aircraft folders into the appropriate Decals folder you just made.
