Wearing last season's fashions to the Winter Gala?? The horror!

[RyanR]

My BoS career just popped into "Prelude to the Counteroffensive", the snow came, and all the planes are still wearing their fall camo! How crude!

 

I *know* this has to do with the TAC codes (default skins changed with the release) and needs some time to get sorted out in a future release. Figured I'd point it out if it's not already on your radar.

 

Still, it was a blast of a mission. We failed miserably at the escort of the HS-129's, as 15 Yaks came in a number of waves. One even collided with one of the 129's. A heckuva furball ensued. This sim absolutely shines when you click into survival mode, and the name of the game is just landing enough shots on enemy planes to neutralize them.

 

Thanks!

Thanks for letting me know. ? I'll have a look at the skin config file this weekend.

Okay, I've submitted a fix. Turns out the switchover to winter skins (and red numbers for the Soviets) was off by one day. ? So, assuming your screenshots were from the first day of that chapter, you should see winter skins and numbers on all planes starting on the next day.

It kind of makes sense to be off by at least a day.  You don't want a white plane if it hasn't snowed yet.  And who knows which day will produce the first snow?

I see your point, but the pattern has always been - spring/summer/map = non-winter skins, and winter map = winter skins.
