Hey all,

 

after a well deserved vacation I have been brainfarting about

changing, updating, adjusting, replacing the pack in which

decals and nations.ini are a bit more correct and up to date.

For this I need a bit of knowledge, and I have questions:

 

-Is every number in "[nationxxx]" in the nations.ini identical to the

decal it is pointing to? Example; [nation044]'s decal being INSIGNIA044?

 

-Is there a way to change decal with the years, or do I have to

create a new nationnumber? Example: post Warsaw-Pact decals after 1992.

(You know, red star types replaced with more current types...)

 

I think I have most decals ready to be converted to tga, and appropriate

timelines, hope you can help me fill in the blanks or give directions.

 

Cheers!

 

 

Muesli

 

 

PS: the basic number sequence will NOT be changed to avoid conflicts!

WOI incorporates different decals for different years.

For example

[Nation032]

Name=Syria

DisplayName=Syrian Air Force

Alignment=ENEMY

PilotNameList=NamesArabic.lst

RankList=RanksRAF.lst

CallsignList=CallsignsUS.lst

Formation.Fighter=SovietFighter

Formation.Attack=SovietFighter

Formation.Bomber=SovietBomber

Formation.Transport=SovietBomber

Formation.Tank=SovietTank

Formation.MobileAD=SovietAD

PilotTrainingStandard=POOR

GenderRatio=0

ActiveDate=1980

AlternateDecal=Syria_OLD74

 

However this is not the case for Soviet/Russian aircraft, probably because that time period was not within TK's focus for WOI.

If there are nations or roundels missing, please tell me!

I want to add a few (old and new ones), like Abchazia, Dahomey

(now Benin), Chechnya, civil war Bosnia, Georgia (alternative),

Albanian star (alternative), Algerian roundel with "wings", newest Hong Kong,

newest Iraqi roundel (!), Indonesian Army and Navy, Katanga (yep!),

Lesotho, Liberia, and a few prequels/sequels/variations on existing roundels.

 

Ciao!

The Irish Air Corps markings would be really appreciated! I've tried to do it myself but just don't

seem to have the talent for artwork on the PC :good:

The present one? :blink: Must check that out. Thought I had the latest nations.ini

which doesn't have the Irish Air Corps

Looking Forward to Russia.That way we can have a modern WOE campaign-after the upcoming patch would perhaps be more reflective of the skill level of the Russian Air Force.

Now making tga-files of:

- Abchazia.

- Afghan National Allianca (1996-2001)

- Afghan red disk with "thingies" (1979-1983, info needed)

- Albania (1958-1960).

- Chechnya.

- Iraq (roundel! 2004-present)

- Ireland (present one and 2 versions 1939-1954)

- Katanga (1960 only, part of D.R. Congo)

- Mongolia (blue-red-blue roundel, info needed)

- Slovenia (several, 1995-1996)

- Somaliland (declared independency from Somalia in 1991)

- Tajikistan.

- Transnistria.

- Turkmenistan (variation)

 

Have more advice, tips? Please notify me!

 

 

Thanks,

Dear friend!

 

Could you reply if the decals for such nations in WoE 

 

1) Montenegro - roundel and flag (Insignia and finflash)

 

2) Bosnia - flag only

 

3) Belarus  - star (the same of soviet star so no need in the same) and flag

 

4) Tajikistan - star (insignia) - same as soviet but of green color inside

 

5) Kyrgyzstan - roundel 

 

Are available for WoE???

 

I downloaded these roundels, stars and flags from air force wikipedia but failed to correctly use hem in the game. The white contour of them covers the whole fuselage, wings or vertails. I failed to amanage this using photoshop and do not understand what is the problem???

 

Many thanks!!!
