First Eagles - WWI and Early Years 1914 - 1920

I would like to thank Firecage and from Thirdwire,TK for parts of some of this Werner Voss skin.I hope they approve and like my Photoshop work.

This is the skin of Fokker FI.103/17.
 
I would like to thank gumpy for the use of his original Werner Voss skin that has been posted in the FE download section back in '07. I used the wings and fuselage streaking effect created by gumpy. I created a new "face" on the front cowl, darkened the wheel discs to be more olive-brown, moved the white fuselage cross fields forward, and added the "Fok FI.103/17" to the lower fuselage sides. Also I have painted on all insignias and added a bit of wear and tear (weathering).

Enjoy, quack74

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

(S!) ALL hi ;-)
 
Ok all here is another of one I been meaning to do for
A long time and First Eagles is the first to get it, this is….
Willi Gabriel’s Fokker D7 # 286 Jagdstaffel 11 June 1918

Worn Airfield texture for Flanders Terrain.
August 12, 2007 by ShrikeHawk
 
First of all, kudos and credit to Tailspin for coming up with the idea for a "worn" airbase
and also for finding the right file to edit.
 
I had 3 objectives in mind when making this texture.
 
1. Create a used, rutted look for the airfield that has yellowish-looking grass and muddy, exposed earth
patches where planes have repeatedly landed.
 
2. When close to, or sitting on the ground, the texture must look more complex with details to
give the flyer a greater sense of motion near the ground. But this should not be too prominent at
altitude. This was achieved using filter effects and applying graphic "noise" to the texture.
 
3. Lastly, I wanted the texture to "blend in" more with the background. This was difficult because the
surrounding tiles are not the same at every airbase. So I attempted to visually breakup the edges of the
texture a la camouflage so that the edge of the airbase is not readily discernable. On close
inspection, you can still see the edges. But not so clearly when viewed at an oblique angle.
 
Note: I expect this will not look so good with the standard Verdun terrain. In my Verdun terrain, I am
using Edward's replacement tiles, which I highly recommend. This texture works well with Edward's
replacements.

This pack contains all new WW1 airfield figures.

This pack contains all new WW1 maintenance objects.
 
4/24/2014:
revised the pack to include missing .bmp for the maintenance equipment.

This pack contains all new airfield objects - hangars, barn, farmhouse, shed, barracks, etc. Just updated the pack to V1.1 - it now includes the missing Barracks and Base Ops files.
 
These objects use hi-res graphics and may not run well on older computers.

It seems that I inadvertently removed the QHuts from the types ini.
Also, the Ashqelon fuel dump was too far inland.
 
This pak will fix that...it's the
 
Palestine_targets.ini
and
Palestine_types.ini
 
A couple of destroyed effects, in the types ini, have also been 'repaired' (ie: spelling eroor)
 
Just unzip to a temp folder, your desktop or directly to the /Palestine terrain folder. Allow for the overwrite.
 
My sincere apologies for this mistake!!!

WW1 Palestine Terrain For First Eagles 2


 
 
This is a modification of my WW2 modificaton of Gepard's modern "Suez" terrain, backdated (once again!) for use in WW1 with the approximate timeframe of 1914-1918. It is designed ONLY for FE2, as it takes advantage of the DX10 shaders and such. It may be possible to use in FE/FEG, but this has NOT been tested, and is NOT reccomended. Without some editing to the terrain's data ini (as it's been updated to NextGen standards), it will most likely 'have issues'. Those VERY familiar with terrain ini editing are welcomed to try; you can, however, expect NO support from me. You're on your own...
 
This terrain REQUIRES the Desert terrain cat (or equlivant) to be present in your FE2 core install's /Terrains folder. -IT WILL NOT WORK WITHOUT IT!!- It has been tested with both the 1stGen SF Desert and extensivelly with SF2's Desert cat. You MUST have either SF or SF2 to copy the Desert terrain cat to you FE2 install. More details are in the "To Install" and "Selecting the Proper Terrain Cat" sections.
 
The targets and types inis have been extensively edited for to (hopefully) remove most of the 1940s-era items, and all the airfields have been replaced with stock WW1 types. The game-generated parking slots have also been edited to increase the number of parked aircraft (Unlimited Ground Objects setting only). While not a perfectly historical map some 'suspension of disbelief' will be required for play. As is true with all games...
 
There are several Ground_Attack routes for Army Co-Operation missions, as well as plenty for truck routes for Armed Recons. If shipping ever gets turned back on in First Eagles, there are shipping routes as well. However, there ARE several docked ships, and some 'convoy stations' for Strike missions (again, with these ittybitty bombs, don't expect to sink Naval vessels). Campaign builders, feel free to make whatever changes necessary to fix any an all errors I've created <grin>. Unlike my WW2 mods, I didn't research this one as intensely.
New planning maps have been generated, but these are 'plain', with no cities or aerodromes shown; just the land and sea.
 
Several new(ish) GroundObjects are included (ships for the most part), and several new guns for said ships, as well as 2 modified data inis for Geo's French 75 and German 77 mm artillery guns. Yes, they DO work! Weither they hit anything or not.....<grin>. It is also HIGHLY suggested you wander over to Geo's site and get the original WW1 objects, as they'll be needed here. Link is below
 
Geo's WW1 Ground Object Paks available at his site:
 
http://www.geos-aircraft.com/
 
You might also want any other ground objects that are available, such as infantry or whathaveyous.
 
As always, it's reccomended you unzip this to a temp folder somewhere's thats easy to find. This will give you access to the rest of the readme for full, detailed install instructions.
 
Follow these instructions herein =EXACTLY= and you should have no problems. It's HIGHLY reccomended you READ this document completly through before installing this mod. As always, there's the usual "Notes" section for notes, explinations, clarifications and demystificatons.
 
Good Hunting!

Four vehicles and other objects that modders can add to airfields using the target.ini. I have made them rather generic so they should be usable for either side, on any front. I have included the data for the types.ini for each object in the download. 
Vehicles include a Starter Truck, a Fuel Truck, a Utility Truck, and a Staff Car. I have also included an Oil Cart and a grouping of miscellaneous Tools used by the ground crews.  
Each vehicle has a high and low poly LOD as well as a destroyed version. I have organized everything into folders for convenience, but you'll need to take them out of the folders when you install them.

Allied and German Infantry, French 75 and German 77 Artillery, Vickers MG and MG08 machine guns, Supply Wagons Allied and German.

look more WWI pilot for me

Five missions using Hinchinbrooke's splendid Zeppelin, all slightly different as I'm now finding my way with Kreelin's mission builder.
