I'm the same (english version)

default (except for Hdrive) installation 1C club folder has all the folders for all the aircraft contained within the skins folder, but they are all empty and the Steam skins Folder ( F:\ Program Files (x86)/ Steam/ Skins only contains a skins Readme (opening sentence being "This is a primer on how to create skins for Steam. The information below is extracted from the Valve internal document on how to edit, so it may in some cases be wrong or reference tools that don't exist.")

Thanks Simon,

Got that sorted. Now how do I get the skin to show up in game. Gone to options and then plane, and i see the paint schems and then pick the skin I like and then go OK. but then I go to Quick Mission and the skin has shown is the defalt one... How did you do it to take those screen shots ?

Thanks Mate

Just a rough muck up but you get the idea

I assume the useful .PSD skins template-files with friendly levels we had for IL1946 were created by modders, right?

working on a JPG can be a pain, but when you have levels and masks, it's quite easy.

We'll have to wait until these skilled guys put their art in our hands, hopefully.

My personal question: when I modify a plane in OPTIONS (where we also have pilot, etc) well WHAT am I really working on? The single missions plane? The quick missions one? I weathered several planes but then, in game, they all look shiny and brand new....

thank you

Yes sorry forgot to say that the screen shots were from the FMB, I think there is a bug on the quick missions so you cannot change skin?

On the subject of the FMB, it looks like we will have to wait to be able to use the new scripts... The basics are simple... When this group of planes are destroyed then this group will spawn..etc., but there is also an extra tab to write some scripting code... And we don't know what the code is yet!

Also the config.ini that COD uses is also in this other game folder!

Good find! Thanks.
