A set of skins and some file tweaks for Monty CZ's Nieuport 11 and Nieuport 17. You must have Monty CZ's planes in order for these to work.
 
For the Nieuport 11, I have made three skins. One is an imported plane with Russian colors painted over the French markings. The other two a Dux built machines, with the Dux markings and insignia for two squadrons.
 
For the Nieuport 17, I have made two skins. One is an imported plane with Russian colors painted over the French markings. The other is a Russian built machine with standard markings and squadron insignia.
 
Monty CZ has made a Russian skin for the Nieuport 11 which works well with these planes. In all of my skins, I used Monty CZ's original skins with some slight alterations. I have included a set of insignia decals with each plane, and a new ini file to update the way shadows are generated.
My thanks to Monty CZ for permission to make new skins for his planes.

Installation Instructions
If you haven't already done so, download and install the Nieuport 24 from the CombatACE Download area. My install will replace the original ini file - you might want to make backups before you proceed.
 
For FE1 - Open my "N24" folder and put all the contents into your FirrstEagles/Objects/Aircraft/N24 folder.
 
For FE2 - Open my "N24" folder and put all the contents into your FirrstEagles/Objects/Aircraft/N24 folder. Next, in your FirstEagles/Objects/Decals folder, make a folder named "N24". Then move my "D" folder from the Aircraft/N24 folder into the Decals/N24 folder you just made.

A set of skins and some file tweaks to convert Laton's Pfalz E.III into an A.II You must have Laton's plane in order for this to work.
 
The Pfalz A.II was identical to the E.III, except that the A.II was unarmed. I have removed the gun and Loadouts from the E.III data file, changed the way shadows are generated in the ini file, and created two new skins for the plane. There is a German skin, with a stripe around the fuselage, and an Austrian skin with red bars on the wingtips and fuselage. The original skins will still work with my conversion. I also made a new hangar screen to display the plane's new name. Everything else is the same as in Laton's original.
 
 
Installation instructions:
If you haven't already, download and install Laton's Pfalz E.III pack from the CombatACE Download area. My install is only for the E.III and will replace some of the original files - you might want to make backups before you proceed.
 
For FE1 - In your FirstEagles/Objects/Aircraft folder, make a copy of the PfalzEIII folder and name it "PfalzAII." Copy all the files from my "PfalzAII" folder into your "PfalzAII" folder. Click "Yes" if it asks if you want to replace an existing file. You can delete the PfalzEIII.ini, PfalzEIII_data.ini, PfalzE.III_Loadout.ini, and PfalzEIII_Hangar.bmp files. All the other files are needed for the conversion.
 
For FE2 - In your FirstEagles/Objects/Aircraft folder, make a copy of the PfalzEIII folder and name it "PfalzAII." Copy all the files from my "PfalzAII" folder into your "PfalzAII" folder. Click "Yes" if it asks if you want to replace an existing file. You can delete the PfalzEIII.ini, PfalzEIII_data.ini, PfalzE.IIILoadout.ini, and PfalzEIII_Hangar.bmp files. All the other files are needed for the conversion.
 
Next, in your FirstEagles/Objects/Decals folder, make a new folder named "PfalzAII". Move the folder named "D" from your FirstEagles/Objects/Aircraft/PfalzAII folder into the FirstEagles/Decals/Aircraft/PfalzAII folder you just made.

Fighting continued in Eastern Europe and Russia for many years after the end of World War I. These decals are the insignia of many of the nations that were formed in the closing days of the war. Most of them fought against the Bolsheviks in the Russian Civil Wars, but many of them also fought each other at one time or another.
 
I have included decals for - Czechoslovakia, Estonia, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Russia, Ukraine, and Yugoslavia.
 
Many nations did not have standardized insignia at first and I have included variations for many of the nations. I have included a text document with notes on how and when they were used. To use these, you will probably need to tweak the decal ini's for existing planes. How and when insignia are reversed on opposite sides of the plane changes from nation to nation, and the horizontal tail stripes will need to be adjusted.

I would like to thank EmlD for creating the N.28 model some years ago and posting it for us at CombatAce.com.
 
 
I have created a completely new skin for the N.28 along with numerous decals to create the 4 USAS Aero Squadrons that, together, form the USAS's 1rst Pursuit Group.
 
1. 27th Aero Squadron - Flying Eagle in red circle
2. 94th Aero Squadron - Hat In The Ring
3. 95th Aero Squadron - Kicking Mule
4. 147th Aero Squadron - Terrier "Who Said Rats?"

The Nieuport.28 was the sole aircraft used by the American pursuit group from the
Late Winter of 1918 until the first week of August 1918 when The 1rst Pursuit
Group was re-equipped with the SPADXIII. When first delivered the N.28's were
unarmed. Some of the first frontline flights were done with unarmed aircraft in
March. More or less done to familiarize pilots with the type and the "Front"
itself. It wasn't until March 28, 1918 that the Squadrons began to receive guns
for their planes. But just enough to mount one per plane. The Nieuport.28's were
also Notorious for shedding their upper wing fabric do to poor glue quality.
stemming from the factory's lack of quality control. Few pilots had indeed lost their
lives do to this defect.
