  1. Check out the other side of the coin... a Johannisthal machine, with replacement wheels (check the hatches) and a lower wing (check the cross underside) from an OAW machine...

    P.S. not so sure about the wing though, it's the overpainted balken that's kind of misleading, the OAW cross should be further outwards....

    Albatros D.Va(OAW). My interest focuses on the planes themselves so I can't tell you who this is or what unit, hopefully someone else can chime in (or maybe I'll learn in Jack Herris' new book). The fuselage is overpainted an unknown (to me) color. It looks as if they spent some time with it, too, as the coverage is very good compared to the scruff and thinly-applied "washes" of Jasta 11 airplanes in spring 1917. Note: OAW wheel valve stem access hatches were oval. The one we can see on the starboard side is rectangular, so likely this machine had a replacement wheel from a Johannisthal-built Albatros.

    Why this thread faded away?

    I was searching for Albatros lozenge taping and stumbled upon this old thread...

    I have to add (if anyone is still interested) that the taping of the lower wing of the D.5a OAW above seems to be replacement from a Johannisthal plane also.

  3. Thanks Pol!

    BTW I'm trying to cycle, in external view, between friendly aircraft? I want to check out the Jasta skins I'm making, in Campaign, not one by one in Quick Combat.

    I've tried with Shift+Tab = Next Friendly but nothing happened.

  4. Hi friends, 

    after many years I got back to WOFF with the new OTT expansion.

    I have no problem whatsoever with the installation and running, everything looks and feels fantastic!

    So I tried to look back to my never ending unfinished skinning projects...

    I created some skins with my old Photoshop copy that show up in game normally,

    but are twice the size of the default skins (and my old ones too, hahaha!)

    Please, remind me the exact DDS specifications of the WOFF skins?

    Thank you!

    P.S. Never mind I sorted it out, should be DTX1 no alpha.

    Happy flying everyone!

    Recce Fighters AMI & HAF

     

     

    The FG was followed by a 3 digit number (the 3 last of the serial) in Hellenic F-104 Gs. It should have been FG-691 most probably.

  6. What a thread!!!

    I was comparing the two photos of D.632/17...

    it seems like the upper wing camo is different or my eyes fool me?

    On the top photo I see a dark-light-dark combo while on the bottom one, the darker patch seems to be on the center...

    or it's pure sky reflections on the glossy doped wing and the subtle shadows, just fool my eyes.  :blink:   :blind:
