Ive been working on this mod for quite awhile and I think I have finally
 
got it working without any bugs or kinks you know the unusual pink or
 
green cloud floating around here or there on the horizon.It makes the
 
scattered and broken clouds look great as far as the inclement clouds they
 
look good from the top but,from the bottom not so much.There has always
 
been a problem with the bottom of inclement clouds no matter which cloud
 
mod you use at least that's what I have found.The CLOUD1 TARGA
 
file comes from the Clouds big mod for IL2 by MANYSH and has been heavily
 
edited by me for use in the SF 1 series by Thirdwire,I hope he approves of
 
the effect his file creates for this game and I greatly appreciate his
 
original work and thank him for it.I have forgotten where I got the
 
ENVIRONMENTSYSTEM ini it has been along time and so much editing ago the
 
author of the original has slipped my mind,so if you see your work in here
 
I hope you approve and I thank you.As far as impact on the FPS I haven't
 
experienced any loss or if I have it's barely noticeable.This mod has been
 
created around Cellinksy's "Widesky" Environment Mod so if your not using
 
it,you may want to get it.The clouds have been tested in WOV
 
1st series and WOI 1st series it may work in the other 1st series titles
 
to you'll just have to try it and see.I do not guarantee it will work in the SF 2 series.

Ok here it is IL2 clouds for First Eagles.It took some editing and some experimenting with different TARGA files to get this effect but I think it looks damn good.I made this mod using the first WideSky V1.0 mod by cellinsky available here and the CLOUD1 TARGA file came from Benders wonderful clouds mod for IL2 available at AAA,so I can't guarantee it will work with any of the other sky mods available here.If you want to use this and you are using a different sky mod you will probably have to revert back to WideSky V1.0.Thanks to cellinsky and Bender for their original mods and I hope they approve of this effect their combined mods creates for First Eagles.

This is a skin for the moraneN, it depicts the plane flown by Ivan V . Smirnov of the Russian Air Service-19th Corps Detatchment September 1917 he had 11 confirmed victories.It is just a repaint of one of the skins that comes with Vernon "p10ppy" Bowden's wonderful plane available at CombatAce.I tried to get in touch with him, I messaged him and sent him a email but to no avail.I hope he is well and approves of this skin.I would also like to thank him for the plane mod it is one of my favorite First Eagles planes.

This is a skin of a Albatros DVa that was operational with Jasta 46.It was captured and put on display in Texas for a time it now can be seen at the Smithsonian.It is believed the Stropp Albatros DVa was the aircraft of Uffz Erich Gürgenz flying for JASTA 46 from 10/02/18 till 04/04/18 He achieved 1 victory on 12 march 1918 a SE5a.He was killed in action on 04/04/18 over Liéramont airfield.As far as I can ascertain these facts cannot be verified other sources say the pilot of Stropp Albatros DVa is unknown.For the skin I used the template and some parts from the skins from the expansion I hope TK and Thirdwire approve and I thank them.The other details I added with Photoshop.

This one Ive had in the bag for awhile.Its a skin of a Albatros DVa flown by VzFw.Karl Kallmunzer Jasta 78b.I used Thirdwires template for the basic stuff and thank them.The rest is Photoshop and the DTXbmp program.

This skin depicts the F-86E-10-NA Sabre 51-2824 flown by Captain James Robinson "Robbie" Risner.He flew with the 336th FS out of Kimpo AB Korea.He ended his tour with 8 kills and was the 12th highest ace of the Korean war.This skin was a hard one I could not find much information about it and was working off a couple of pictures I found in a old Squadron in action book that I thank them for.The rest is all my Potoshop work.I'm not at all sure about the artwork but it will have to do.

This skin depicts the F-86E-10 51-2747 stud-HONEST JOHN of Col Walker Mahurin (4th FG Deputy CO),Kimpo AB,Korea,December 1951.By now I us the template that I have Thrown together to use for my Photoshop work,if any one else sees their work I thank you and hope they approve.I made this skin as shinny as I could so have a good pair sun glasses ready.

This skin depicts Harold Fischer's F86 'The Paper Tiger',one of the few Sabres to have a shark mouth applied to it. Capt Fischer was assigned to the 39 FIS out of Suwon.Korea and ended the war with 10 confirmed Mig kills.I used the basic Silver Saber skin from Scandy's Skins which I thank them for and hope they approve and also a lot of my own Photoshop work it seems like it took forever to paint that shark mouth it's not the best but it is the best I could do. Gumpy

This skin depicts the F-86 "MIG POISON" flown by Maj James Hagerstrom,of the 67th FBG,out of Osan AB,in May of 1953.I used the basic Silver Saber skin I got from Scandy's Skins along time ago which I thank them for and hope they approve and also a lot of my own Photoshop work.

Joseph Christopher McConnell, Jr. was the top American ace during the Korean War.Captain McConnell shot down 16 Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15s while flying F-86 Sabres with the U.S. Air Force.McConnell was the first American triple jet-on-jet fighter ace and is still the top-scoring American jet ace.This skin depicts His Beautious Butch2 F-86 Saber during the Korean war.IT is a compulation of several different skins,and some of my own photoshop work. I think part of it is from MarcFighters I hope he doesnt mind,and I thank him,and if anybody else see's their work in the skin I thank you to.

The Enemy Ace package one Enemy Ace Skin and it's pilot Von Hammer-The Hammer of Hell Skin,all skins are
 
just repaints of Thirdwires original skins form the expansion I hope they approve and I thank them to all
 
ends for this great game.

I got tired of the plane yellow prop on the Expansion Fokker Dr1,so I made these using pictures of wood and a decal from a old model kit I have.You can add them to your Fokker skins using DXTBmp,if you don't have it try a Google search.Here's hoping you have Photoshop or some such photo editing program.I take no responsibility for any problems caused by these addons. Gumpy

I got tired of hearing the same old engine sound on the Fokker Dr1 of the new expansion so I made a new one.Drop the Dr1 wave file into your First Eagles sound folder,then go to the objects/aircraft/Fokker Dr1 folder open up the FOKKERDR1_DATA configuration settings INI.scroll down to the [sound] section and edit this line to read EngineSoundName=Dr1 That should do it go fly and have fun.I take no responsibility for any problems caused by these addons.

This is a skin of the all white Fokker Dr1 flown by OBLT.Weiss of Jasta 10 during 1918.I'd like to thank TK for the base skin from the new FE expansion and hope he approves.

I made this skin because of a picture I saw on the Internet,it is a skin for a Albatros DVa, pilot unknown,Jasta unknown.I'd like to thank Warbird and Third Wire for the base skin and hope you all like it.

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 a skin of Maj.John Glenn's Mig Mad Marine F-86F Saber as seen in the skies of War torn Korea.It is a compulation of several differnt skins,and my own photoshop work.I thank everybody who made this skin possible,and hope you all enjoy it.

A Albatros DVa skin I did while I was home sick for a week hope you enjoy.
