Hi Frank, welcome to CA and thank you for the screenshot contributions.
As so not to clog up the fora with too many new threads, could you maybe post your screenshots in the appropriate screenshot threads???
There are a few to choose from, and it is easier to find your pictures there.

Thanks, keep up the enthousiastic good work!

The "Wehrmacht-Style" of the uniforms was an invention of the soviets. When the first military organisation was build up in the early 1950th in East Germany, the uniforms were influenced by the Red Army Style. When the NVA was foundet in 1956 the soviet advisers prefered a more german style of the uniforms. So the uniforms got the typical german style. Only the color was changed from green to stone grey. The new helmet was the Wehrmachtshelm Typ 1944. It was simply renamed to Stahlhelm 1956.

The reason for it was, that the soviets had the so called Stalinplan. Their intention it was to create a independend and united Germany which had to be neutral and mostly disarmed. (The same what happend with Austria in 1955.) So a belt of neutral stated would be between the soviet sphere of influence in Europe and the american sphere of influence, starting with Finnland and Sweden, then Germany and Austria and in the south Yugoslavia. so a direct confrontation would have been avoided.

BTW. topic: steel helmet. When i visited the museum Wehrtechnische Sammlungen Koblenz (the Bundeswehrmuseum) they had had a collection of all steel helmets which were used in Europe. Interestingly only two helmest got good grades. It were the swedish helmet and the Stahlhelm 1956. The soviet helmet, the british helmet and the US helmet got very bad grading, and this by westgermans. The swedish and east german helmets were light and gave the best protection for the soldiers. Of course the new generation of Keflar helmets are even better. But if you look to the american helmet of today: the shape of this helmet is Wehrmacht-Style.

I have a former NVA hemet which was used by one of the parties  in the Bosnian Civil War. The former Yugoslavian Ne-44 helmet (which I too have) bares a resemblance to it, probably because it too is styled after the German style Stahlhelm.
It is logical, in a sense... The helmet has better protection for the sides of the head and neck, compared to the US M1 and the English 'soup plate'... 

How about the Fokker F27 and F50 family?
These Fokkers... ;-) have been around quite a lot!

There's a few skins, alright. Like the one I made ages ago...
 

;-)

So... where is this thread going?
I still am not getting it in the first place...

Almost no odds...

I don't get it...

But I guess you're free to do your own tweaks on your downloaded aircraft and game.
(And why that blue text background? Is it another form of 'screaming'?)

Enjoy the game!

Thank you, but even the absolute lowest resolution didn't help. Please ask for more advice.

Whatever you do... DON'T set the "Effects Details" higher than "high". Only thing I can think of.

Thanks Wilches! But the problem still prevails. After this fix it happend with a flight of Yak-25's...
I guess I have to get used to it and ignore it.

Hi,

It is not tied to the airfields, as I see it happen with aircraft formations which are in flight for some time.
I notice it ONLY happening with RED aircraft, both fighter types and bombers. So not with BLUE types...

The pic I took was from the Archipelago map, and as I said earlier I use a vanilla Formations.ini.

Hahahahaha, you guys!

Thank you for the silly answers, and thank you for the insights!
I use a bone stock Formations.ini, and I have the issue with different maps. Next thing to do (now) is to fly a few missions in the stock map areas to see if the problem is there as well.
If not, it might be in the map itself??? If so, where to look and what to edit? I have no clue!

Thanks, crazy people!
(It takes one to know one!)

Most of the times I am not paying too much attention to the flying opponents... but I wonder if this is something I can change to a more acceptable formation...
Do I need to change values somewhere, do I need to erase/change a file somewhere?

Cheers!

Dem damn Doritos!
