wrong C47 skin(s)?
« on: June 17, 2011, 02:25:21 PM »
Downloaded C47A 5/ VR1 USN by Greebo and went to EW to check it out. VR1 USN is red and 9 TCS is the only C47 skin that is black. 9 TCS is not in the download list and I have only the one skin in the skins folder for the C47 (named C47A_5.res). Install is new as of V2.24 so there is no carry over from older version.

I believe Skuzzy or somebody mentioned you have to log into an online arena for a short while to download a specific file. It's the menu list in the hangar. You can get the skins separately, but the index or what-have-you is downloaded when you log in.

Have you been online since these were released?

Not much. 2 hours on 56K maybe. Hope I don't have to have auto DL of skins enabled.

Good question... Maybe turn the checkbox on in the hangar, wait 10-15 minutes then turn it off again.

Maybe Skuzzy knows how long it takes, if it's instant or what.

The C-47A skins on the HTC website are the new ones I did for the latest shape but due to an oversight they still have the old skins' names. I've emailed Skuzzy about this. So for now just download all of them and one will be the VR-1 skin.
