Never realized the use of various skin would effect the game so much.

 Here's the complete overview on the skins avaliable, at AH-Skins Overview .

 Wtg skinners, wtg lucull!

Just had a short amount of time to check out some of the skins last night, and I'm at my work comp now, but what I've seen so far is just fantastic.  Kweassa, I immediately started using the D9 skin you made.  Great work!

Nice job.

One mistake "Spitfire MK IX "417/RAAF" by DsrtRat"

If it is No. 417 Sqn, then it is RCAF

Cheers,

It is cool, no doubt about it.   But I have to think its mostly psychological, because I haven't really been able to ID any different skins on opposing planes yet.     Even if they are on my own team I only get a fleeting glimpse of the skin.

How about enabling External View for ALL planes (incl fighters) as long as you are on the ground?    I'd love to be able to do walk-arounds of all the new skins.   Going offline and looking at them just ain't the same - it would be much better to allow this when online.   And the hangar external view doesn't allow you to move your viewpoint around the plane.

AFAIK it would be more realistic too, weren't pilots in the habit of performing walkarounds as part of the preflight inspection?

I really can't think of any drawbacks to this idea - no unfair advantage is gained if you are on the ground.

I did - there's a lot of great skins that aren't enabled - 14 variations of P51 are pretty boring when there are only minor changes in skin.

All skins in this overview  are available custom skins. Of course they have to download with the auto update first. ;)
