My fix to run 4.15 was selecting "Windows Sonic for Headphones" under "Spatial sound" in my Windows 10 speaker options. Once I did that the game ran under
any of the sound install options except the first "DSO" option. It even ran with no sound card option selected, but the one that delivered the most EAX lights was DSO XP. I did lose sound on the Creative install somehow after it had been working, but your "SoundUse=1" tip got that working again, so I actually have 4 different working installs of 4.15 now!
For the skin issue, my Fw 190 mission design is dated 2 April 1944, but the map never did give correct default US roundels for that date. Even in 4.14.1 I had to include custom skins for the mission, which worked fine then, but not now for the C-47s in 4.15. That is the problem. And yet the custom skins work fine in 4.15 for P-39s, Spitfires and Beaufighters at the same airfield in that same mission!
But you don't need to download my Fw 190 mission to see the problem. Please just follow my example of trying to fit C-47 or P-38J non-default skins on a clean Italy online or Kursk map in 4.15 and, if it is a universal problem, it should only take you 30 seconds or so to see it. I know the problem is not isolated to my install, so it may well be a universal 4.15 bug.
