Just so as you know it's me....

A printable summary on one sheet of the engine settings for all the BoX aircraft, not jets.
A great app found here
No more questions now chaps.....

Getting to grips with reflectivity on the skins....the metal is starting to look convincing I think.
A skin for one of my favourite aircraft, the MiG3. Natural metal with aluminium painted wooden surfaces.

Alternative scheme based on Neptun radar equipped 234s in service.

A skin depicting an Ar234 as a nightfighter of Erprobungskommando in March 1945. The actual aircraft had radar antennae so it's semi historical. This skin has the gunpod painted black to fit in with the overall scheme.
I couldn't see how the upper surfaces scheme fitted in at night but the piccie shows just how it did....I think
I have looked for schemes for this aircraft but most are included as default....if anyone finds one that's different please let me know.

A set of 3 semi historical PRU skins for the Mossie FBVI based on schemes worn by BMkIV photo recce variants. BMkIVs had the glazed nose. Please note 2 skins per aircraft.
Lighter blue was for high level use, darker was for low level.

This 109 E7 skin is a representation of the scheme worn by a 109 E3 of JG26 at the time of the Battle of France in 1940.

A skin for the Ju88C-6 depicting a Ju88S-1 night fighter of I/KG 66 operating from Dedelsdorf in the winter of 1944/45. S-1s were equipped with the German 'Y-Gerat' (or Wotan) beam system used to direct individual fighters to an intercept of enemy bombers. The aircraft had a fake glazed nose painted on in the hope of confusing the enemy into thinking it was a bomber not a fighter....sneaky beakies!!

A scheme depicting a PRU Mustang III of 541 Sqn RAF. I just think it looks good in this scheme....

Two skins for the Mosquito MkVI. Both RAF as part of SEAF, aluminium dope scheme, one is 82 Sqn RAF the other with no codes or serial so the game tactical codes can be used. NOTE 2 files per skin!!

This is the mod that changes the Sdkfz flak half track skin to an allied green skin.
JSGME ready.
A 'Git' production.

A zip containing the coops I host for the 'Old Git's' session. They have been run through the Mission Editor 'resaver' tool and they work ok.
Unzip. Copy and paste the 'Cooperative' folder into '1C Game Studios\.IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of....\data\Multiplayer'.
Have fun.

These are the current liveries I am using:
DHC6 Twin Otter
H135 helicopter
Cessna 337 (push/pull)
Ju52
Spitfire Mk9
MB339
There are 2 zipped folders.
1. Sid's Liveries - JSGME this is the one that I use when installing via JSGME. My JSGME .exe and 'Mods' folder is in 'C:\Users\....\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe'. The path within the 'Liveries' folder is 'LocalCache\Packages\Community'.
If you have JSGME and want to put the 'Liveries' folder in via JSGME then use 'as is' or alter the folder path to suit your .exe/Mods folder location.
2. Sid's Liveries - Community  Just the livery folders in a zip file. Copy and paste the 'Community' folder or place the individual livery folders into your 'Community' folder

Within the folder 'ICON_NAV_Del' is a mod that removes all of the navigation icons from the air but not from your maps. It removes waypoints, target markers, attack/defend boxes from around aircraft, landing markers etc.
The mod is in a JSGME ready folder that should be put in your game 'Mods' folder. It is compatible with the 'Dogz Icon' mods that we use. When activating it you will get asked if you want to continue because the 'Dogz Icon' mod (if installed) has already created the necessary folder - just say yes.

Want to have a go at something different, bit of fun? Got a pen and paper handy?
I have attached a zip file containing a navigation and observation exercise using a Sherman. The route is below along with some questions along the way. It shouldn't take more an hour. Run it with the Tank Icons mod on or 'Icons/navigation off' as it wouldn't be as effective otherwise. Unzip the file into your data/missions folder, there should be 10 files beginning "Navigation exercise Sherman". It isn't a Multiplayer, it is a Mission.
Apart from one, all of the sections of the route are on a heading but there are some sections of the route that are distanced, some are timed and some are on a heading to something specific as well. This will give you a few references to help you on your way and confirm some waypoints. When driving the engine is at 100% throughout.
Ignore the route and waypoints on the mission map apart from the start point, I made it with the quick tank mission builder so they appear even though they aren't needed. Don't expect to shoot things, we have the Tank range for that  Use the HUD if you want but it can be done by using the compass.

A fictional MkXIV PR blue skin based on a MkXIX low level PR scheme. Made because I think the scheme makes one of the nicest looking Spitfires around

Maybe some of you will find these useful...
I have attached a jpeg piccie each for Allied and Axis that shows, by type, the actions and default key mappings for each crew position. I found it really useful to go through the positions and try the mappings available to see what occurred. I found some interesting stuff eg.
How to get the Su122 gunsight working Topic here
KV1 commander operates the rearward firing machine gun from within the turret
Lots of visor views
The Sherman visors are height and horizontally adjustable so they fit your field of vision
Some of the views from the gunner’s visor positions in some of the tanks would in real-life be from the loader’s position. This position isn’t modelled hence the view from the opposite side of the main gun when cycling through the gunner’s visor views
Russian gunsights have extra zoom....German don't
If you have a look and find something on them that may not be right or have found something else please let me know 🙂

A set of 20 Sherman skins for use in Dogz events. There are 4 zip files, one has the 20 skins in for placing directly into the "_M4A2" skins folder, another has the 20 skins as a JSGME ready folder that goes into your 'Mods' folder and there are 2 that have the skins split into 2 packs as some encountered issues downloading a pack of 20. Select which one, or ones, you want. The JSGME one allows you to remove the skins easily after the event.
Produced by Sid using the game M4A2 template.
