New skins.
« on: May 10, 2012, 05:52:03 PM »
With this batch of updated skins we seem to still have the same issue of multiple listings of the same aircraft.

There are 3 duplicate P-47D11 skins.  It is fixed for the next batch.  Other than that, I am not aware of any other duplicates.  Names may be duplicated, but the skins can be different, for some planes.

Is this related to the fact that for many planes/GVs I still see the old skin names, even though they aren't available any more?  Would be nice to have those no longer supported automatically removed from the hanger list.

Fixed for the next batch release.

All of these duplicates are due to us clearing out the overflow queues.  Most all of them are due to skinners submitting them multiple times, without a skin reference number.  The P47D11 skins were just an error on my part.  The P38 error had to do with rotating skins.  That just caused a mess.

Online, no skin will show up in the list that is not valid.  The reason a skin shows up in red is due to it not being installed on your computer.  There is a brief period of time when you have not picked up the "skins.res" file from the online server where all skins may show up in the list, even the invalid ones, but that should be a short time as the "skins.res" file is a high priority download.

Mosquito XVI All of FTJR'S have been duplicated.

A6M3 Model 32 204TH NFG by Busa01 is a duplicate.

B-29 444TH BG/676/BS By T2maw is the same plane.

109 G-14 91/JG300 By Dutchguy is a duplicate.

So far that is all I have noticed other than those already mentioned.

Ok, all the dupes should be gone now.  The B29 skins you mentioned were not dupes, but different plane numbers within the same bomber group, but different squadrons.  We looked at it and if the skins become full for the B29, one of them could go.


Thanks for the help!

I just verified all 7 skins in the A6M3 lineup and there is only one 204th NG.
I verified it is not on the WEB page downloads as well.
I also verified it in the game as well.

If you are showing two 204th, online, not offline, then you have not gotten the latest "skins.res" file.

If you see 8 skins in the hangar list, that also means you do not have the latest "skins.res" file.

That is strange I did get all of this batch of skins & I did see the list to load on the A6M3 it did update & I still show two though on the A6M3 & no skins left to load any place on the roster? I logged in on Mid war & training arena & also booted PC just to make sure there was no issue there.  :headscratch:

I removed my local "skins.res" file and went online.  Waited a bit for the new skins.res file, then went to the hangar and here what I got.
