Okay, so who'd want to be testing this thing? I'll start a PM with the files you need, and instructions and....

Yea, for sure, I do not get it. But, it doesn't really matter me thinks. If you do not want/need 2K skins, then delete them from your skin folders after you run the tool. Or, make sure your 4K ones have the same name as the ones in the vault, that way they will be left alone, as in not being downloaded, and not being uploaded. How am I to tell what are 4K skins anyways? Size? What if we start using 6.5K skins? If you want only/mostly 4K skins, then do the following: 1. Become Beta tester 2. Build your complete set of 4K skins 3. Run the tool. Upload them all - I will have made sure the Skault is empty 4. Tell everybody to delete the contents of their Skins folder, and then run the tool. (Hm. I can and will create a button for that ....) Problem solved!

WTF? Different sizes of skins. My My, what silliness will they think of next? Now if I add such a filter, the whole point of this exercise will be lost. If and when I use a 2K skin, you won't see it ... so ... I will add the most sensible option for this 'issue': Do not use it! I probably am not getting it...

Well, I think you've answered your own question now, haven't you?

lol... I'm sure I'll make it download-only for you then

Currently working on a thing called CheckSkins ... The idea is to run it every now and then on your gaming PC. It will have the same usage restriction as CheckMods had: One has to be a DD to use it! (Could open it up for everybody - but we would probably run into Bandwidth issues - lol) * It will upload all your skins to a central location, if they are not there already. * It will download all skins from the central location to your skins folder, if they are not there already. * It will be file-name based, including only .dds files. It will not be contents based. Yes, this will pose a problem when you update a skin! Not sure how to handle this, and whether this will be a problem! (It's always possible to manually delete files from the central location...) On the one hand, I would like it to be as automated as possible - you start it, and it does its thing, up- and download missing skins. However, I can imagine one would want some options: 1. Only download locally missing skins 2. Only upload centrally missing skins (Wait, this one makes no sense at all!) 3. Both Here's a preview: Any suggestions? Remarks? Ideas? Feel free, go ahead!

No problem with that plan! Might even join in - Let's just try and go for it!

Nearly home ... Painless and Fenrir, lead by Wiggy, from FT's cockpit What a joy!

Dave, is this on our Server? Sound like you are using the first of the two 'Outside View' functions as defined in Controls. The first one should've been labeled 'Give control to AI'. It's the second one you need to assign a key to (like F2) to go to outside view of the aircraft. It could also be there's a key assigned you did not know about - (like Alt-F2 which is the default for 'Give Control to AI' What you describe is exactly what happens when that function (the first Outside View) is being activated...

Skins 356th Fighter group, 6 of them: https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/55056-356th-fighter-group-p-51d-skin-pack/?do=findComment&comment=840317

Overlay? Not too sure - quality of TS3 is quite good so you can recognize them voices - quite different from TS2 ...

Look in here Bucky:

'HOT' spawn points have been converted to 'AIR' - airstart at 35m. This due to a bug (https://tfbt.nuvturais.de/issues/1146) which left a/c stationary in mid air, after a pilot bales out - that gets to get messy after some time as you can imagine. Mainly around Hawkinge ...

Fixed it for you... BP is now part of the rotisserie ...

Rotating one and the same mission still is considered rotation now is it not? But yeah...

Cool!

Good read, and a good show! Nice performance guys!

Guess what I did today? The only thing that remains to be seen is whether the four hour cycle will work: The process called DCS.exe will be killed from the processor after four hours - but there are two DCS.exe's running on it now... not sure what will happen! But, we will found out in a few hours. I guess... Oh, and SRS has been updated to 1.6.4.0 as well. ( What's the use? I dunno )

For all the stuff (ie. "missions") hosted via our dedicated server, the alternative visibility is now Off, as well as the Navigational Icons. Not sure why I changed it, I just felt I wanted to ... and as I could, well, I just did!

Hi Bucky, if you want to enjoy 'multiplayer' with us again, then maybe leave 46 alone as it looks like you will be on your own in there. We've kinda moved on to Great Battles series ...and / or DCS...

Will try running Coops today on the Rheinland Map - with the P-38. Or the P-51 - not both in the same mission, as I think not all of us have Blodenplatte? (Hm, would it be a good incentive to buy it if bobp-less they can only fly the I-16 as an escort fighter for GA P-38? )

"Alternative visibility" is now ON on the missions running/hosted on our DServer...
