Issue with C-47 skins in-game and on downloads page

[Krusty]

I preface this with saying I have NOT been online in the past week so I haven't downloaded any new skins (I want to get through what I have to document what is changed with the new batch), so this is from before the recent skin pack release.


The C-47 skins need a serious redoing.

Download page lists:

c47a_1 37th/316th by Nexx
c47a_2 271S/RAF by Rogerdee
c47a_3 VVS/53 ADD by Greebo
c47a_4 267S/RAF by Greebo
c47a_5 VR1/USN by Greebo
c47a_6 20th TCS by Greebo
c47a_7 IJNAF by Greebo
c47a_8 267S/RAF by Greebo
c47a_9 36S/RAAF by Greebo

But looking in game it's more guessing which skin goes to which slot. Mine shows:

c47a_1 37th/316th by Nexx <-- missing from the list entirely
c47a_2 271S/RAF by Rogerdee  <-- missing from the list entirely
c47a_3 VVS/53 ADD by Greebo <-- "6GA VVS by Greebo"
c47a_4 267S/RAF by Greebo <-- "267S RAF by Greebo"
c47a_5 VR1/USN by Greebo <-- "VR-1 USN by Greebo"
c47a_6 20th TCS by Greebo <-- "9TCS by Greebo"
c47a_7 IJNAF by Greebo <-- "5th Fleet IJNAF by Greebo"
c47a_8 267S/RAF by Greebo <-- shows default
c47a_9 36S/RAAF by Greebo <-- "36S RAAF by Greebo"



Some major discrepencies both sides, in-game and in the downloads. I know there are some missing skins I've used in the past that aren't showing up. I think it may be from that last skins batch (before the newest one).


EDIT: I also re-downloaded them all from the skins site to make sure I had them installed and all files up to _6 were there, but the links for c47a_7 through c47a_9 were broken links.

That may be part of the problem, but I think there's more as well. For example, 3 skins are listed on the downloads page but are not available to download if you follow the link. I have been online since the C-47 was remodeled, so I should have updated the skins list. It's only the past week or so I haven't been online.

Unfortunately I can't just go review them all online to take the screenshots. It really needs to be an offline thing.

I'll move on and work on the rest and revisit C-47s later, but thought I'd submit it for Skuzzy to look at.

Okay, I think the 7, 8, 9 are leftovers. Looking at the dates 1 through 6 are dated 12/1/2011, the rest predate that significantly. I'll chalk this up to old skins interfering.

Okay, checking it through an easy but time consuming process I've nailed it down to:

REAL LIST

c47a_1 5th Fleet IJNAF by Greebo
c47a_2 VR-1 USN by Greebo
c47a_3 36S RAAF by Greebo
c47a_4 267S RAF by Greebo
c47a_5 9TCS by Greebo
c47a_6 6GA VVS by Greebo

If Skuzzy wants he can use that for the skins download page.
