Title: Personal Skins
Post by: Postman on December 18, 2011, 12:34:16 PM
Is there anyway to use personal skins in game? I know its a vague question but I'm not really a fan of some of the skins in game and would like to use a skin I created.

yup

but they have certain requirements, such as.... must be a real Paint scheme from the war and must have been in squadron strength....german stuff can not have any swastikas on them.

here full instructions to start skinning

No you can NOT o any custom paint jobs. No pin strips, no flame jobs, no "pearl" or "candy" colors. None of this is allowed on line, but you can use them off-line.

To be used on-line, see INKs post above.

I completely understand why its a "no" to custom schemes in the MA's....but what about for racing????? do you know if they take racing skins only to be used obviously for racing :D

not that i race but doing a racing skin would be fun.

Is there any way to have your plane show up with your personal skin on your screen, but just look like the default skin on other player's screens?

In other words, your skin doesn't not have to be uploaded to the server or downloaded to other player's PCs, and other players don't have to look at your "my little pony" scheme.

Nope, anything else may be considered "hacking" in the TOS

A new terrain would need to be built with the racing skins included within it as new default skins.  I'm sure only a few would be allowed to be added, otherwise the terrain might pass the very scary *gasp* 10Mb file size, and we just couldn't have that.  It would be anarchy! :rock

Ok thanks guys :frown: Kinda sad now, although if they implemented something like what Gryffin said I think it would be good for the game. Maybe I'll have to look through some photos to find a Squadrons colors and schemes I like and go from there.
