An update for the stock skins of the bf109?

right now the G10 and G6 late share the same skin

G10



G6/AS



Im sorry for the swastikas, but i couldnt find any good pictures without them.

Err ... no. Both types have a unique texture.

Texture sharing affects the K-4s, the Yak-3s and the Fw 190 A-5s and D-9s (plus some which may escape my now).

The profiles i showed are just examples.
But how do you know wich skin is used the most?
Still the G6/AS could use a new skin.
Purple with green isnt exactly know as standard Luftwaffe cammo?

It is in fact impossible to make a real "generic" texture since a lot depended on the place where the aircraft was produced, when, where it was employed and by what unit. As a result the default textures are, in fact, not really historical but approximations following known guidelines on camouflage patterns and colours along with a few tactical markings. So each default is not always going to be spot on for each an every location for all possible timeframes.

But each default also has to be generic enough to allow for broad use so creating defaults is always a walk on a tightrope.

I found this site. Dont know if this is of any use.

The bf109 RLM camoschemes from 1939-44' are pretty easy to find.
But the late 44'-45' camoschemes are rare.

Just wondering ... have you installed the new defaults for a lot of planes which came with 4.09?

[ImpalerNL]

I have the stock 4.09m version of il2.
I dont know of any new defaults?
But im checking it right now.
