Paladin314 Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 Hi guys, excuse me for being a little thick but I'm having trouble getting the skins into the game. I did well with the old RoF game getting skins into it but am not sure what the sequence is for Flying Circus. Any help would be appreciated. I unzip ok but am not sure where to place the download.
HotWaffle Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 Are you using Steam or the standalone client? I'm using Steam and the path is: C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/IL2:BOS/data/graphics/skins/(airplane folder)
the_dudeWG Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) And here is the location if not using Steam ... C:\Program Files (x86)\1C Game Studios\IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles\data\graphics\skins Edited July 21, 2020 by the_dudeWG
Paladin314 Posted July 25, 2020 Author Posted July 25, 2020 Ok so i unzip and copy and paste or drag into that location and yet nothing happens. I go to custom skins in game and find nothing. I uses 7 zip. Shud I use another?
SIA_Sp00k Posted July 25, 2020 Posted July 25, 2020 Make sure the files you are trying to put in there are .dds files. Make sure you are unzipping the right model aircraft to the right folder. P51 .dds to the P51 folder etc. Dont just put it in the skins folder, it must go into the correct plane folder inside the skins folder. Then you will see the plane in the custom skin list inside the game.

jollyjack Posted March 24, 2022 Posted March 24, 2022 You could use Haluter's, it loads the selected for download in to your skin folder automatically.
