As I have said, we are still working out the implementation, don't assume anything. You have been here a long time and should no better by now. Jason I was going by one of your updates last year which mentioned that staff changes would prevent significant GUI work being done and not to expect any big changes in that area. It was the one where you mentioned that the Marshall feature would have to go on the back burner. If things are moving forward again then that is good news.
Jason_Williams Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Our current GUI programmer has already made a GUI for applying codes. How we use that is not decided yet beyond the player’s plane or whether codes are assigned automatically to other planes or not. Much testing left to do. Jason 1 4
devmc99 Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 So is my hope for an armor update with new tanks for Normandy futile? 1
Jason_Williams Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Should work with all skins barring some problem. Jason 3
Denum Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Would it be similar to the 1946 numbering/nose art system? I though that was kind of neat.
=gRiJ=Roman- Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Emblems of different historical squads and nose art would be stunning if feasible. Let's cross our fingers! 3
BMA_FlyingShark Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 (edited) It would also be nice if the nose art will be visible online for people who don't have your skin in their folder. Have a nice day. Edited February 3, 2021 by FlyingShark
Missionbug Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 The decals option looks good, hopefully it will work like in the old IL_2 where provided it was activated each aircraft in the flight had its own code number. Just having default skins with no number codes makes the skin look bare, it will improve the immersion a lot as it will be easier to pick out individual aircraft of your own flight, might save me loosing them on the rare occasions I get to fly. Yet another "Butcher Bird" to well, butcher with my Tempest, nice. Take care and be safe. Wishing you all the very best, Pete. 1
ITAF_Rani Posted February 7, 2021 Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) It could be nice if the player can add not only a Letters/ codes on the plane( this is great, TXS JASON)...but also a little "nick name"( just few letters ) close the cockpit or over the nose of the plane.....in order to provide to the palyer the feeling that the plane is really "your"...

Not being smarmy, but that is what custom skins are for. I don't recall ever seeing this as an option in a flight sim. If basic aircraft/squadron decals are hard this sounds next to impossible. 3
Mysticpuma Posted February 8, 2021 Posted February 8, 2021 In the quick missions 2 on 2 or 3 on 3, would it be possible to select individual skins for each aircraft rather than one skin on all aircraft of each flight? Would be so much more realistic looking than 3x Aircraft all with the same skin? (without using Syn_Vanders easy mission generator and editing the mission after).

Maybe my memory is fooling me but I seem to recall noseart being available in original IL-2.. only showed on one side? Cheers, Dakpilot

ITAF_Rani Posted February 8, 2021 Posted February 8, 2021 Maybe they could create a sort of menu list of nose art to add to the planes in fixed places ( nose , cockpit area) for axis and allied planes. I mean realistic things as : pets, simbols, same names and so on. So one can choose and add it to the plane ....this could provide a sort of personal skin and everyone can see in MP in the same time... Also create in a MP contest, a personal skin is another funny way to play with the planes...just another way of personalization.
BlitzPig_EL Posted February 8, 2021 Posted February 8, 2021 It will be cool to be able to use my personal number, 23, again on every plane, and not have to hunt for a skin with that number.
71st_AH_Hooves Posted February 9, 2021 Posted February 9, 2021 This is a pretty exciting development.
