File Name: Fokker EIII File Submitter: trotski00 File Submitted: 11 November 2016 File Category: Fokker Skins ~These are 10 new ( ish ) skins the originals were done by Gambit , however, I have a pathological hatred of painted on decals, especially in FE 2 , as the bmp format is just horrible, Jpg is so much better ( Load some FE aircraft into SF 2 and you will see what I mean !!! ) Anyhow, these skins are for Latons most excellent Fokker EIII, the skins can be used in either version , ie. the EIII or the EIIIa ( which never really existed, the A model just has twin Spandaus, and that was not a common modification on EIII's ) So the Skins are as follows, A factory finished EIII, 2 Austrian Navy machines one an unusual all over Green,including the cowl , Udets EII , which I have painted in grey with the blue stripe, as there is evidence to suggest the Red stripe isn't actually correct so I have gone with that colour, Boheme, also redone as the one available in the uploads have the black and white colours the wrong way around, also there is evidence to suggest this machine was also a grey one, and not linen, 3 different coloured Turkish machines, and a machine flown by Leopold Anslinger with the iron cross markings on the horizontal stabilisers, which is a bit different I think, and finally a blue EIII that is possibly a Jasta 9 machine. there were many more I could have done as well, but I think some of the ones I was thinking about were actually EII's not EIII's, so watch this space i shall hopefully do some EI & EII skins as well. I have made new decals for all the marking positions, the trestle marks and also FOK.EIII numbers , not all aircraft had these so some of the skins dont have them showing, the personal machines, I have added separate FOK numbers, so they are hopefully correct (ish) I have also included the hangar screen and the Von S Data files, guns, pilot , decals, and sounds are all included in the package as well, I hope I have not missed anything out, but I expect most of you already have all the pertinent bits if I did. Thanks to Laton for producing the Eindeckers, ( please make me a Swartzlose armed AIII please !! ) to Von S and his band of brothers for doing all the black majiks on the data files, also to Peter for doing all his hard work on FM's finally to Gambit, and to Von Deutchmark for making the skins that I can come along and modify. Happy Fokker Scourging !! ENJOY Click here to download this file

What these guys said ^

As Logan just said, jump in the pond.....its a big one, and there are never enough modders, skinners, , tweakers, testers , modding for a lot of folk is not an option as getting 3ds max can be a costly enterprise, I would love to have a shot at it, but I cannot afford to purchase 3ds, so I skin instead, and I would say that skinning is a good place to start on the modding route, you can use programmes such as GIMP, which is free, and we ALL love free !! Also, there is lots of help and support available on this site, if you get stuck , dont be afraid to post a question, someone will assist no matter how small an issue it may be........As the old saying goes, if it isnt available, make yer own !!

The main problem as I see it, is that SF and FE have sort have reached a bit of an impasse, that is to say, TK is not developing the game further, and thus , we find ourselves with an aging simulation, which has so many possibilities, but we dont have the means to unlock a lot of the potential , as a lot of the files are hardcoded and locked by TK, there is a lot of development stuff going on behind the scenes, Wrench for example I know is working on some stuff, as are others, however health, and real life do interfere somewhat, and everything slows down, so, just bear with it mate, maybe have a go at doing some modding yourself, it all helps, to keep these sims alive and kicking !!

Surely scrapping a countries constitution, is not a viable option, as it would by its very nature be UN constitutional, also, as for the religious bits, what has this to do with politics anyhow. Religion, or belief in the flying spaghetti monster , should be kept apart from governance, as it has zero to do with it, and lets be honest, the vast majority of voters are sectarian anyhow ( certainly in the UK ) and to play the religion card in a political scenario, is just another vote getter, aimed at the more devout population, and as such is nothing to do with politics at all, when you start mixing religious rhetoric in with politics, you end up with the same sort of thing as Islam is advertising, just with a different brand logo.......so, keep religion out of politics completely as it is a recipe for disaster, as once religious fanatics get this particular bit between their collective teeth, insanity, death and disaster ensues. Maybe I am just seeing this from my Pagan point of view, dont get me wrong, I have no issues with religion, in all its different forms, however when mixed in with policy making that affects the population of a country wherever that country may be, you end up with zealots, inquisitions, jihads and crusades....bloody silly way to run things ain't it !

yes, definatley not a fan of the F-35 as i think its a white elephant, however, Mr sprey is a bit of a twonk really.

errr no.....no point if you already have the newer stuff, also more of the mods available on this site are for SF series now, as the majority of folk have either upgraded or not had the originals .

Not really, if you are using SF2, it would be a step backwards a little, not that its a awful step, but to be honest, you would be better served by just getting the sf2 Europe version. Not saying dont buy, as that of course is your choice, but it would be a backwards motion.

Dove is the Civvy version, Devon the RAF one, flew on one of these for an air experience flight back in the 70's from RAF Alconbury, pretty little aircraft.

I'll take 2

As ever Geezer, your work is outstanding, keep it up mate please !!

File Name: Albatros D.I Pack File Submitter: trotski00 File Submitted: 24 October 2016 File Category: Albatros Skins This is a re imagining of my original Albatros DI upload from last week, I wasn't 100% happy with the original skin of the Crown Princes mount, so I decided to tweak and twiddle a little, the result i think is far far better. So, included in this package, are the 2 original skins for Prince Von Prueben, both the all over Sea Green, and the version with camouflaged wings and horizontal stabiliser, along with the red and the black alternative Brunswick Hussars motif. As there were only 50 D I airframes produced, as this model was swiftly superseded by the D II the range of markings and schemes are rather sparse, so, the next scheme is my interpretation of the "standard" factory finish, Ply with Camouflaged wings and stabilisers, I have also set the skin to be numbered as this seems to be historically correct, the serial numbers are NOT going to be accurate , but they are aesthetically pleasing, and around the correct range for the time. The last 2 skins are for Jasta 5 machines, in a rather natty all over Green/Brown cam scheme, I am assuming that all the Jastas airframes were painted this way, but as there is scant to no information ( that I have seen ) on early Albatri, one maybe needs to allow for a little artistic licence on my behalf , the last skin though, is what gave me the idea that all Jast 5's D i's were painted as such, this scheme is the aircraft of Karl Spitzhoff, of Jasta 5 , it differs somewhat from the standard jasta schem, in so much as the tail fin was apparently replaced at some time, and was painted the under surface blue, however, the orginal aircraft serial, it appears, was cut and pasted from the original fin, as the serial number is applied over the camo of the original, the bloke who painted the serial numbers was obviously on leave at the time, and the crew chief took the swiftest and laziest option, I personally dont like it, I think it looks naff, so I have included the standard fuselage from the other Jasta 5 schemes in the skin folder. There were a few other variations I fancied doing, but a lot of the photos, are a little un clear, and i wasn't convinced they were all D I's but in fact D II's , so I chose not the do those and stuck with what we have. OK, so the final bit is, as per the original upload from last week, I have included all the guns, pilots, sounds and decals needed for these skins, you WILL need to download Stephen 1918's most excellent model these skins will NOT work on Borts original D I !!! I have included both DATA.ini files, the original that came with the aircraft, and the updated one by Von S , with Ocjars FM , which is derived from Peter's FM's , also the updated hit boxes by my good friend Nick Bell. The Guns are set to the early Spandau lmg 08 ( which isnt the same as the LMG 08 !! ) so it fires really slowly 400 -450 rpm, also the correct sound file to reflect this, both originate from Mr Von S , the Pilot is a work of art, done by the great Geezer, I wish he would make more pilots !! (hint hint ) I have just tweaked it a little, but these guys did all the hard grind work, I just pretty things up a bit ( or at least attempt to) Anyhow, please enjoy this aircraft, I shall be looking at doing addition skins for other types as I go along ENJOY !!

Nah not happy, but sod all we can do to break our "socialist Chains" Brexit was a step in the right direction, but even that looks like the autocracy........oops sorry , the Government, are desperately trying to squirm out of. What worries me about my American Cousins, is the fact that complete jizz trumpets like Clinton ( who is just a cunt ) or Trump ( who is an american version of Boris Johnson ) can actually be elected, and supported to the White House. How Clinton is still a fee woman, and not doing time in pokey for the rest of her life is beyond me, and as for Trump.......what in the name of all that is unholy, does this muppet actually know about politics........he isn't even a good businessman....... No wonder Putin is laughing his ass off .

The Whitehouse Cat, it's house trained and everyfing.

File Name: Albatros DIII (OAW) Factory fresh skins File Submitter: trotski00 File Submitted: 16 October 2016 File Category: Albatros Skins 5 skins representing factory finished OAW built Albatros DIII's . OAW built air-frames were finished slightly differently to standard built DIII's no rust brown paint was used , as per a directive from the air ministry in April 1917, so the 2 tone camoflage was applied, also different to the standard Albatri the camouflage was symmetrical, and also hard edged, rather than diffused. I have tried to represent 2 camouflage in Green/Mauve and Green/Green , the second scheme is speculative, as it seems the Green/Mauve was more prevalent, also on the Green/Green I have made the tail cam lead -trail and not tip - tip as was more common on OAW machines, I have seen pictures of OAW machines with fore aft tail plane schemes, but that may have been a field mod done on the Jastas, but anyhow done them any how. So the Green/Green, and the Green/Mauve are mirror images of each other ( you will see what I mean when you load them up ) Finally I have redone the Lozenge, as I am fed up with seeing the manky dirty lozenge scheme that comes as standard with the in game Albatri, I have utilised a lighter day scheme, re done the rib tapes, etc etc etc.......anyhow, hope these aircraft fit the bill, nice clean, fresh out of the box, so not weathered at all, so if you prefer the dirty used look, please go ahead and dirty 'em up, they are a blank canvas after all. Oh yeah, just repainted the upper fuselage metal bits, in the standard grey green, also the struts. Enjoy !!! Click here to download this file

File Name: Albatros DI Prince Friedrich Karl von Preußen File Submitter: trotski00 File Submitted: 20 October 2016 File Category: Albatros Skins Albatros DI flown by Prince Friedrich Karl von Preußen. He commanded Fliegerabteilung (Artillerie) 258, an artillery spotting unit, but flew patrols in a single-seat fighter with Jasta Boelcke whenever possible. He was shot down in 1917 whilst flying this machine, he crashed only lightly wounded, but unfortunately was shot in the back by Australian troops, whilst trying to escape from the area, unfortunately he died later from this wound. I am actually surprised that no one else has made this skin, especially as we now have the most excellent Albatos DI from Stephen 1918, but anyhow, I have done one. There is a great deal of speculation concerning this particular aircraft, there is only really one decent photo of it, after she was captured, however the wings have been removed, so only the fuselage is clearly visable, so, there are many discussions and musings over the correct scheme for this Albatros, the general concensus is that the fuselage was painted a light grey green colour, however as no colour photos were de riguer at this period of time, we can only guess at the correct shade, so I have used an approxomate colour. there is also mass discussion and beard wagging, in respect of the wings. ( as no photos I am aware of show these , the question is a bit academic in my view ) the popular belief is that the aircraft was painted over all the same colour ie. light grey green, but there are those who firmly believe that the wings were standard camouflage pattern , so, to forstall any rivet counters out there, I have included and alternative skin WITH the camo wings and stabiliser, personally I think it looks better in the overall colour, but thats just my opinion. There is also some question over the colour of the Totenkopf insignia, or rather the backing colour, some people insist it is red, whilst others (myself included) believe it would in fact be black , as the Totenkopf badge is that of the Brunswick Hussars, and the badge was worn on a black cap, anyhow, to stop the red affectionados, I have also included that as well ( I'm good to you lot aren't I ? ) there are 2 Data.Ini files as well, the original which came as Stephen 1918 made it, and the updated one from Von S, with the FM by Ocjar, and the hit boxes modded by my good friend Nick Bell, so choos which one you like, the Von S one is the better of the two in my opinion. I have also included the sound files I use, and the guns, which again are by Von S, ( I have put the early Spandau lmg 08 on as this would be correct ) I have used the Merc 120 sound file although this aircraft actually had a 160 , I just think it fits in better for the time period. Finally (sorry been blabbing on here ) I have used a pilot made by the marvellous Mr Geezer ( plead make more pilots !! ) I have just faffed about with it a bit but he looks the part !! Right, I think that covers everything, no doubt I have missed out some important bit of info.....but hey ho, such is life !! Thanks to Sephen 1918 for making the aircraft in the first place, and thanks to the other fore mentioned good souls, who make life easy for me, as they doo all the really hard work. ENJOY !!!
