Title: aircraft skins
Post by: earl1937 on January 21, 2012, 11:18:59 AM

 :bhead Why can we not "load" the skin of our peferences when posting missions? We have the option of guns, bombs and rockets, so why not aircraft skin of your choice?

I guess because HTC did not give us the ability to do so.

If your asking for this ability to be added to AH then you should probably visit the wishlist forum.

I just wish that when I join a mission I would up in the skin I have selected not some other skin.

Have the same problem.
In that case I find out which runway the mission will take off from, go to the hangar, pick the plane I would fly in the mission with all the proper ordinance and the right skin, then I spawn on the runway. After everything is set and I'm just sitting waiting there I join the mission. To everyone who took off with the mission it would look like I'm a part of it as well (will be able to speak on mission vox and everything), but the plane would be set the way I want it to be.

Or...

Do the above and when the mission starts and asks you if you want Fighter or Attack mode, launch. Then, select Fighter or Attack.

It will launch you with the skin you have selected with the loadout you have selected and you are still part of the mission. It helps to know what direction they are launching though.

Sorry... I'm under the impression here that you gents are talking about offline missions that people make.

Is it something else? Because I don't think we can do any of those things with offline missions.
