N.24 & N.27 Camouflage skins
quack74 posted a topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2 File Announcements
File Name: N.24 & N.27 Camouflage skins File Submitter: quack74 File Submitted: 27 Mar 2010 File Category: Nieuport Skins This download contains two Nieuport skins. 1. Nieuport 24 - Camouflage fuselage and wings with a bare metal nose section and cowl. 2. Nieuport 27 - Camouflage fuselage including nose, cowl and struts. You can select different national markings as well as squadron markings directly from the game loadout menu. I only created serial numbers for the rudder. These are in the "D" folder inside of the skin folders. Feel free to rename the folders to what ever you like. Drop each "Camo" skin folder in it's corresponding aircraft folder: Thanks to EmlD for the Nieuport models and allowing us to create new skins for them. The skins and skins only were done by quack74.

No problem I'll fix up the skin so it fits the N.24Bis.

Thanks a lot Peter01 . It's a double edged sword though. These planes and others would be useless without your flight models . I wouldnt skin if there weren't any planes worth skinning. But I'm glad you like 'em. BTW the national and squadron markings are all produced by the game. I just did the serial numbers on the rudder. What's next you ask? Well I have to post some Gotha's for those airfields very soon. But I am currently working on tweaking the DH-2 skin of No.24 Sqd. I'm making three versions that will appear at random but in groups of 4. A flight, B flight, and C flight. A flight having having red wheels and red and white outer struts. B flight having a blue and white pinwheel pattern on the wheels and blue and white outer struts. C flight having solid blue wheels with blue and white outer forward struts and solid blue outer rear struts. They will appear at random using the decal system that I used for the Jasta 19 Dr.1's and the Jasta 11 D.III's (if you've check them out). So in any mission you fly the DH-2 or fly against the DH-2 you'll come across these different flights simultanously. I've done a minor touch up of the original skin just to lighten up the insignias and made the doping a more tan color with some weathering. I'll post a few pics when I finish them up. The hard part is getting the decals centered on the wheels when the wheels spin . But I'll get it.

They're in the download section now. Just waiting for approval.

First off this is for First Eagles Gold. But I'm sure it will work with FE2. I figured a simple way to use heavy bombers that takeoff from airfields without changing the spacing for fighters. What I did was copy a terrain folder (for this example I'll use the Flanders terrain) and renamed it "Flanders_Bombers". And then changed the spacing in the "WWI_AIRFIELDS1 .ini" in the new terrain folder. Now I can select the new "Flanders_Bombers" in the terrain menu and takeoff with any of the heavy bombers. All the missions are the same and all the same aircraft will appear. There is a bit more to do. It's all in the Readme file inside. The new "WWI_AIRFIELDS1.ini" is also included. A link is also included in the readme for the heavy bombers if you dont already have them. Hope you like this. It's great for bombing missions. Enjoy, quack74 -
Airfields for Bombers
quack74 replied to quack74's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2 File Announcements
I saw that too. I dont know what thats about????? I sent someone a message about the problem. Maybe It's because of the site work that was just done? Or the file is bad. I'll try to repost it. If anyone wants this it is in the FE forums as well. -

Maybe there is a problem. I dont know. -
Ok here are a few pics of Ne.24's and Ne.27's with camo paint. The 24's have a bare metal front and the 27's have green. There wont be any painted on markings because the game already generates all of them. I edited the decal.ini a bit so things are positioned right, or better. I'll post them soon.

Wow! Thanks guys. I'm still learning as I go. Everytime I do a new skin I seem to learn new tricks. This is my first camo pattern. Hard to do around the 4 different fuselage meshes and getting the colors to line up. I've been thinking of doing some N.28's of USAS squads.
-
Just trying out a few versions. I dont really have to many pics of camo upper wings. But is this what you had in mind? Dont mind the markings. BTW this is a Ne.27.
-
Good to know they will work. And I'm sure one of use will figure a way for them to work the way they were intended, from water, without other aircraft spawning. Thanks Wrench. But we have no Seaplanes ........yet

Just a couple of pics of "AI" Jasta 19 Fokker Dr1's. All the skins are done with decals just like the AlbD.III's. So you'll be able to get in a tangle with all the known Dr.1 aces of Jasta 19.

I think he's been busy making a kid . Hope all is well Laton

We just didnt want Daycare to raise our kid. I wanted her to know who her parents and family are. And I wanted to be able to see her grow and learn things. It's been interesting thats for sure. Being out of work does suck. But being with my daughter is priceless. Glad to know I'm not the only guy who had to stay home. I'll tell ya I hated it at first. Had some rough days . I had a construction job before so I was out side all year round. Had lots of fun things I "liked" to do. And I really had to give up almost everything. Kind of makes you feel pretty lousy for awhile. But now it's much easier to take care of my daughter. She's old enough to go outside and run around and play by herself. So it's not 100% hands on anymore. Now I can do stuff. I dont know how the hell single moms do it . My hats off to them .

It is one of the older models made for First Eagles so you'll need to update the flight model and Loadout for it. Check in the FE download section under flight models. Check through all of Peter01's flight models and see if he redid the flight model and loadout for the Ca-3. I'm not sure if he did. If not we'll have to get on his back to do them . I could use them myself for my make-shift Austrian Italian install. Good luck. I hope it's all in there.

Henry Ford had a job! I've been home the last several months taking care of my 19month old daughter. Daddy daycare if you will. FE has been my "at home hobby". Since my other hobbies have taken a back seat, FE has become my #1. It can be done from home and it doesnt cost anything. Needless to say money is a bit tight with just my wife working. But she had the better job with insurance. Some days I would rather be back into construction . But thats why I skin so much. I'm home most of the time. And I kind of get obsessed over it. I like doing the research and buying new WWI books. I try to get the skins as right as possible. Hope you like them all. I enjoy doing them and I like to share my stuff with everyone. It's so hard to focus on one when there are sooo many to do. I'll be getting a job soon so I have to get as many done now as I can

They're all done . Well almost. Still have some touch ups to do. But all the known Jasta 19 Dr.1 skin decals will be in this pack. 14 I think. All you'll have to do is drop this "FokkerDr1 J19" folder right into your First Eagles/ Objects/ aircraft folder as a new aircraft. Everytime you encounter Jasta 19 Dr.1's you'll see all the skins. This will be just a single ( Stock ) Dr.1 skin of Jasta 19 with lots of decals to create all the other skins. They will appear at random. You can even select the new "FokkerDr1 J19" in the aircraft menu. But you'll never know whose plane you'll be in. Makes it more interesting. There will be more in the readme file. Jasta 11 Dr.1's will be next I think. Then maybe Jasta 12 Alb D.V's
