Hi Bliss, was flying on your server last night and wanted my squad mates to have the same skin, not custom skins but skins within the game, because we wanted to be able to identify each other. However no matter what we tried we could only see one skin (109E3) a bright shiney skin with no weathering which looked terrible. I understand removing custom skins because of stutter but could you allow stock skins within the game and weathering.

Thank you.

Unfortunately Tree, only the default skin is applied and available when Custom skins are disabled. This is a game limitation and I'm sure Bliss highlighted this problem to the Devs. May be the next update performance improvements will allow custom skins (if the option to use Stock Game skins but still exclude custom skins for MP isn't included).

I don't think so. What I was referring to was just the area for the mission. I think it's pointless to run a mission using the channel map unless it's main concentration/area is where England and France are closest together. Using anything north or south of that area for other scenarios just won't work right now with the CTD issues. I've got quite a few missions that are done, but can't use them / add them because of it.

I wish I could. I've kinda cheated per say, to disable custom skins. I added a command from the confs.ini of old IL246 that just so happened to start working after the latest official patch that disabled skins. If there's another command that's proper to IL2COD that will disable skins and allow all the default one's to work, I don't know it. But living without custom skins is much better than the result of them being on right now.

Hopefully some of this stuff will actually be addressed or added to the confs.ini along with a 100 other things it needs to be up to IL246's standards.

Yep, I sure have. Hopefully some of this graphic work fixes this issue. When B6 was talking about a last minute skin issue holding them back on the patch, makes me at least want to believe something is being done about it

S!

Have been enjoying many flights on the ATAG Axis&Allies server and it has been much fun. A couple of questions:

Where is the server located? Here in Finnieland we get pings well above 150, which causes some jumpy movements when formation flying.

Anyone else get timeouts? I get about 1 per night. So, not on every sortie, but every now and then.

S!
Around the radar stations and south(?) of the Hq, where are the guys has the launcher freezing I have "only" 1fps bug, but for minutes.
Do you use any extra 3d objects or the "local weather(–cumuls field)" in FMB around this areas?
I can reproduce the problem offline with the weather objects only.

EDIT: I've had many crashes when trying to bomb radar stations... I guess I'll skip playing until those problems are solved.

Well that explains the ping

No. Well at least there was no mission ending messages. This has happened more than once, and then there has been other squad mates on the server at the same time that did not have the timeout, at least not at the same time as me

Did my first 'proper' bomb run in a JU88 last night on the server. Took off from Tramcourt and went 'the long way round' (Top Secret LW speak )and ended up over the target at G10 some time later. Set up for a dive bomb attack, bombs set to 'series' and down I went!
Was pretty wicked seeing the bombs straddle the target as I pulled out from the long dive, then set course for the long trip home again, landing some time later with not a lot of fuel left. Great fun.
I really want a yoke now.
