But it's still a 109 and once you start deciding the real panels and rivets should be repositioned your way and not historically then it becomes NOT a 109 and I could care less how good you think you are at it, it still won't be any more a 109 once you're through.

Meanwhile, we would have to put up with every Windows Paint hack out there like some gay disco.

How on earth can it not possibly be enough that you can paint it any way you wish just as if you were actually in a Duxford hangar in 1940 with free reign and millions of colours? You just don't get to redesign the plane with odd-shaped panels and odd sized rivets.

And I'm the arrogant one.

This is the most ridiculous fanboi post yet.

Lets reflect back a few years shall we? The former state of aircraft release skins of many planes by Maddox and 1C was WRONG! The adjustments of skins and the true historical corrections made by the people in this community have perpetuated IL2 for many years. Skinning, Modding and non official patches have kept alive what we so cherish. The ignorance of some of the posts here is amazing to say the least.Sure you can pull the so called "Gay Disco" paint scheme card from your hat and walk away like you said something intelligent or even relevant to this conversation... but its not. Along with the few kid/amateur paint schemes out there ,there are 100's of historical recreations and corrections done for free by history lovers and IL2 enthusiats.

All Armin is trying to say here is that the system that 1C and Maddox has introduced , has taken away from the owners and enthusiast of IL2 the ablility to expand upon it. Just as we have so done for many years in the past. One of the reasons IL2 is still alive and 1C has made money on it still to this day is because of US!!! The Skinners and Modders. I will say with profound respect to the people who have given back to this community by developing FREE add on and upgrades to us for our enjoyment.... Thank You. You leg humpers thats have posted here probably have never given one thing back. As most of you who have bashed this thread,I have never seen your names anywhere for contributing to our community. And it shows by your posts and lack of respect to those who have kept this Sim moving forward years after its release.
