my bad - i had the impression, that, under the patch, new custom, community, squads were introduced via the paintschemes/regiments subfolder. it seems however that the ones i noticed were either from previously or maybe from online play.
anyhow, my idea was to include custom squad patches, on request from the squad, so that they would be part of the il-2 installation as opposed to having to be copied in. minor point, just an idea.
also - can i just tell you a BIG HUGE THANK YOU to you guys for all the work you have done. this is still one of the greatest, and for me, the greatest sim out there, and the updates provided (especially the last one with moving control surfaces!) make the game even better. so thank you again to the entire team.
i wouldn't be myself however if i didn't point out a minor bug that others have noticed as well - i will point toward the right thread though for it (external engine display during multiplayer - see
http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=29126).
thanks again for considering, i appreciate that spare time is precious
