Ah, I get it now. Thank you very much Gunrunner

I've tried transfering aircraft from FEG to FE2. It works so far and I've even done some FM updating. But where do I put the decals now? For example, the Pfalz D.IIIa has a "D" folder in FEG. I transfered the skin folder over to my User //Documents/ Saved Games/TW/FE2/ Objects/Aircraft/ PfalzD3a. It all works except the Decals. What has to be done now. I'm at a loss.

Sounds good I'll give it a go. For aircraft that used a "D" folder (decals) like the PfalzD.IIIa in FEG, how do I get those decals to appear in FE2? Wher do I do with the "D" folder?

Well Heck I've been messing with the settings and seem to have found a good place. Things are running smooth now with a mix of medium and high settings. But now I'm trying to figure out this new folder tree stuff . Kind of getting the hang of it. I like that you know what you've added to what folders. Nothing gets overwritten. Thats a plus. Took awhile to figure out how and where to extract everything, but I think I got it. Thanks Heck. I just need a good GFX card

Ok, so I installed FE2 for the second time. I have it set to use DX9 and set AntiAliasing=0. My ingame graphic settings are all set to medium or low. The game is unusable for me. The frame rates are horrendous. It's so slow I can walk faster then the planes can fly. Why is this????. My FEG install has everything set to maximum settings. And it works just fine. What am I missing and why is my FE2 so slow. It really is useless. Here are my PC specs: (I know I have intergrated graphics. But it does the trick for FEG) * HP Pavilion P6210F Black Desktop PC (Windows 7 Home Premium) AMD Athlon II 620 Quad-Core Processor (2.6 GHz, 2MB L2 Cache) 6GB PC2-6400 DDR2 SDRAM memory (3x2048MB for ultimate performance)(expandable to 16GB) 640GB (7200RPM) Serial ATA hard drive; SuperMulti DVD Burner with LightScribe Technology NVIDIA GeForce 9100 Graphics with 256MB integrated shared graphics memory. Up to 2.9 GB Total Available Graphics Memory as allocated by Windows 7. Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Can any of you computer people out there give me some pointers on how to tweak what I have? Atleast till I get a PCIe graphics card.

Mike Dora they're all in the First Eagles download section under /skins/Pfalz

View File 17-Pack of Albatros Models This is a mix of D.IIIOAW, D.V, and D.Va albatros skins. All with fairly accurate Jasta markings. Some models will share the same Jasta markings. This is so different planes can be used at the same time. Also they will match some of the Pfalz D.IIIa's done by me as well. There are 17 skins in this download. Too many to list here. But it's all in the readme file inside. Enjoy, quack74 Submitter quack74 Submitted 05/06/2010 Category Albatros Skins

It is a shame. I'll bet hundreds of people wont buy FE because there is now on-line gameplay support. I was almost one of them. I'm shocked there is still no on-line support for FE2. Almost everyone that plays games these days play on-line. IL-2 was incredible for its online multiplayer. I used it for years. I'll admit, it does get a little boring playing alone against AI all the time. FE with online multiplayer would be great if you ask me.

I'm using All new "Horizon" .tga's for my FEG install. But, why does the new "Clear Sky" only show up sometimes? Why does the default "Clear Sky" Still show up if its no longer in the "Flight" folder?. The new Scattered, overcast, etc, etc always shows. Just not the "Clear". What gives? How do I get rid of the stock "Clear Sky"?. That solid horizon line is driving me crazy! .... but only sometimes I know FEG is a thing of the past, but I really like it still. So I'm still messing with it. I have way too many things in my install to just transfer it all over. Plus I have a second install for only Austrian, Italian, and Russian aircraft (skins). So needless to say, It will be a long conversion to FE2 for me. Not looking forward to it.

I posted the serial number decals for the Albatros models in the download section under FE /Skins/ Albatros I included the placement coordinates as well to be placed into each model's skins' "Decal.ini" file. The decals are for the Alb D.III, Alb D.IIIOAW, Alb D.V, and the Alb D.Va

View File Serial #'s for DIII, DIIIOAW, DV, DVa Here are accurate serial numbers for the Albatros models. They will appear on the vertical tail fin. Numbers are for: Alb D.III Alb D.IIIOAW Alb D.V Alb D.Va Included with the serial numbers are the placement coordinates that go into the skins' Decal.ini file. It's all in the readme file. The install instructions are for FEG. For FE2 installs check in the Combatace forums for help. I'm not using FE2 just yet. Submitter quack74 Submitted 05/06/2010 Category Albatros Skins

Awsome work sinbad . I for one like flying bombers so this is great!

Your not bugging me Heck. I need you guys to tell me these things. I appreciate it. BTW, I updated the file in the first thread. I added the "D" folder to the Jasta 77b Pfalz D.IIIa. I forgot the tail was a decal. Most of the plane is a decal. Sorry to all you that downloaded the patch. Thanks Heck Those DV's are next. Also the correct serial numbers for the Albatros DIII, DIIIOAW, DV, and DVa's that will be on the tail fin.

Through further research I decided that the color for Jasta 77b should be more of a Bavarian Blue as apposed to the dark bluish purple that I made it. So here is a patch of JUST the two skin templates for the Pfalz D.IIIa and Pfalz D.XII of Jasta77b that were done by quack74. You dont have to patch your planes. But this is a more accurate rendering. I already updated the main downloads.

I just realized that Berthold's winged sword should be reversed on the port side. Sorry again...Stay tuned.

Just a patch for the 3 Pfalz D.IIIa's of Jasta 15 that I posted with that 25-Pack. This is really optional. But I figured I'll post it here for those of you who want it. The patch will create silver-grey undersides of the fuselages and the horizontal stabilizers. They have been rendered both ways. Also there is a fix for J15 Ltn von Buttlar. The Horn emblem wasnt showing.

Found another D.IIIa needing a little fix. The file below is for the Jasta29 Pfalz D.IIIa. It is a new skin template (Pfalz). It will add a silver-grey underside with two short black stripes. Sorry about that. Another oversight. After doing so many I tend to forget some details. After about 20 of you or so have downloaded this patch, I'll delete this thread. I already edited the main download.

All my skins work for FE2. As far as where to put them I'm not sure. I'm not using FE2 just yet. But just ask in the forums and someone will let you know.

Yeah I know. And thats not going to happen. But it's not that bad, is it?

Thanks a lot guys. Glad you like 'em. You'll see there are some black streaks on the underside of the nose. Thats from the decals. I couldnt get rid of those. I tried and tried. Made me nuts. But how often do you look under the nose anyway ?

Sorry all. I did find a problem with the Pfalz D.IIIa of Jasta 5, in the 25-Pack download. Here is the fix for that plane. Just drop these items into the skin folder. I'll post an update in the download section. This is for those of you who already downloaded the Pfalz package that it's in. So you dont have to download the whole thing again.

Lol! Skinning is the only thing I do for myself these days. I'm home watching my 21mo old daughter for the last several months now. I skin while she plays behind me. I only have to stop to feed her . Actually it's addicting. I've been redoing some old skins of mine. When ever I learn a new techniqe with Phtoshp I have to redo my old stuff. It's a sickness I tell ya. I wish I could delete the old skins. Well I guess I could just edit the old downloads. But then nobody would know what is new. Hmmm, am I thinking out loud again?
