Skinning has added lots to the old IL2 franchise, allowing historical missions to be flown using schemes relevant to the theatre in question.

Personally I think it will be a great shame and possibly a mistake that there will very little scope for custom skins as the only add to the game.

I have concerns over the default weathering program (I will hold judgement until I have the game) but combat aircraft are not clean and shiney, they are dirty and sooty.

Having several default schemes may suit, but even the 'standard' Scheme A&B had differances, be it roundels, panel refits, altered camo etc and it would be nice to have that option available, having clean and dirty sections, replaced rivets etc.

Just my humble two peneth worth

Hi Chris.. how you doing?
Yes, it will be a great shame if we have lost the ability to use custom skins... that ability really helped to extend the believability of a squadron identity online for us in EAF 19, using many of your skins for example.. Get in touch mate, need to catch up, I'm out of the country quite alot these days with work commitments etc, haven't chatted in ages..
