Reggie_Mental Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) At this point in this pointless point scoring I would like to point out that not one single Reggie Mental screenshot has been manipulated in any way except one offered up in monochrome to illustrate a point about WW2 photos and screenshots. The game produces beautiful screenshots without any need for manipulation.* *Unless if you have a really sh!tty graphics card... BTW, I really love this image...It could only be better by the addition of a hakenkreuz and codes on the Ju88. Yaks1.s69 is one of my favourite fighters in game.

Just ignore the "Karens" Flowbee and keep posting your screen shots showing your skinning skills. This video is an intro/ advertisement which is not claimed to be represetative of actual gameplay. Flobee's photo edits are posted in a thread which is representative of actual pictures taken from in simulation gameplay, hence the word 'screenshot' in the title. A good comparison would be with Forum member roen, who creates incredible aviation art(some used by 1 C), and he has his own thread to post it in because I am pretty sure that he knows 1 reason is his art is not representative of the in simulation possibility for screenshots. No what I mean Vern? S!Blade<><
Vig Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) BladeMeister, it is one thing to bring up a point of order and another thing altogether to stoop to namecalling on what is supposed to be a friendly forum hosted by a business enterprise. I would have banned you for that if it were my business forum, but you have the usual forum heavies backing you and it didn't happen. One thing, though, is apparent: your post was motivated by jealousy over the number of "likes" garnered by a screenshot posted by someone you view as a rival in a screenshot popularity contest. That sort of behavior is infantile. Good will is a fragile commodity and I am astonished that such infantile behavior is tolerated here. Edited July 17, 2021 by Vig 1 1

That sort of behavior is infantile. Good will is a fragile commodity and I am astonished that such infantile behavior is tolerated here. It is a good thing you are not a mod then because you clearly can't separate truth from fiction in an unbiased way. I haven't called anyone any names, unlike bzc3lk whom called me a 'Karen'. So speak to bzc3lk about name calling, not me. I have no 'usual Forum heavies' backing me? If you are referring to LukeFF, he made his statement on his own account and merely stated what I am guessing is his opinion. Take that up with LukeFF if you don't like it. "One thing, though, is apparent: your post was motivated by jealousy over the number of "likes" garnered by a screenshot posted by someone you view as a rival in a screenshot popularity contest." What you just said here is completely infantile behavior pure and simple. My comments have been truthful, pretty short and straight to the point. No need in repeating it again. Your clairvoyance must amaze you, but I don't buy into your knowing what motivates people or what they are thinking. Have a look in the mirror and realize that you are just another member here, just as I am, and that you possess no special abilities that transform your fantasies into truth anymore than anyone else posting here. I will stick by what I say and you stick by what you say, but don't presume to speak for me or pretend to expose my motives or reasoning. Reread my posts and with one half an ounce of comprehension you will arrive at why I made my original post to Flowbee. S!Blade<><
Vig Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 I spent thirty years writing judicial opinions; I can tell truth from fiction with uncanny accuracy. You deleted much of what you posted, but I read it beforehand. I would not have bothered to comment had you not been discouraging posts of great artistic worth that I have very much enjoyed. Now I ignore you as beneath my consideration. 1
Jason_Williams Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 Guys, Knock off the arguing please. This is indeed a screenshot thread that is supposed to have screenshots from the game itself. I've allowed some artistic license for a long time, but what Flowbee is doing is more akin to a composite artwork like what ROEN has done in the past. ROEN has also sometimes used our screenshots as the basis of his artwork, but it is seen as unique, special artwork by us and he has his own thread to show it off. I think Flowbee's falls into the same category. I prefer such work be in a separate thread. I know Flowbee is not trying to confuse anyone or do "false advertising" but it is a little beyond what this thread is meant for. I could just start a new thread for modified screenshots and composite works. Jason 1 2 5
ROCKET_KNUT Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 @SR603-Flowbee Edited or not, appriciate your work mate! ? Back to toppic: What is the best thing you can hear whilst working on the flightline, prepairing a/c, repairing, refulling and rearming them? Excactly. "ÜBERFLUG!!!"? Remember: You owe it to your ground crew, so if you can, by all means, buzz the flight line, they will love you for it, forever and a day.? 5 2

Once Flowbee said that he was quoting and addressing LukeFF, I deleted 2 sentences because they were addressing what I mistakenly interpreted as a comment directed at me. It's a good thing for the judicial system that you retired. Thank you. S!Blade<>< 2

Stonehouse Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 I use a merge of Rheinland texture mods put together by MarcoPegase44 plus a couple of river mods merged. One is old and I can't remember who created it but the mod is called Bo60_new_rivers. The other is Rowdybots river mod found in his clouds mod thread. I have tweaked some of the specular and other values to suit my taste for the rivers. The other main one that makes a large difference is Rowdybots cloud mod - the difference from this one is immense as it not only completely revamps the clouds but changes the lighting which has a huge effect. I'm using V15 grey sky version of the mod and reduce the saturation to 0.7 in gpresets.cfg. Also his better rain mod plus Lizlemon's sun correction mod. I do also use Reshade as well. Think I also threw in Hamaha15's autobahn and other mods. Just search for Hamaha15's content, there is quite a few. Final thing is MarcoPegase44's mods to give camo'd airfields, bunkers etc. Rheinland merge is probably the only one hard to find and it's here. 1

Filthy lie of bourgois capitalist press. Capitalist plane, but nearly as good as Soviet plane. Spoiler This is an AI aircraft. Some of my AI skins have Hakenkreuz, some don't.
