Thanks Sparty72, Mission_bug and vpmedia for this object. :) 8)
I never understood why this building of great importance was never included on the default Stalingrad map.
It is like Berlin without the Reichstag. St. Petersburg without the Hermitage. London without the Big Ben. Paris without the Eiffel Tower.
By the way, the Mosin Nagant on the cover of the book seems to be mirrored.
Never seen a version like that.

That's another proof, if need be, of what modders can achieve when they cooperate ...! 8)

Yes, really does make you wonder why it was not there from the start Uufflakke, such a prominent moment in history. o_O
That art of yours is awesome Istvan, thank you very much, greatly appreciated. 8)
Take care.
Wishing you all the very best, Pete. ;D

It looks wonderfull, I flew yesterday over Stalingrad and its really high building, thank you!!!!
I recommend edit texture elevator to indexed colors, it will be only 1MB (not 3MB)

@vpmedia,
In your 2nd screenshot the industrial buildings on the left with the red bricks, where can I find these repaints?
Have I missed something somewhere somehow?

Thanks to all, very cool mod. Inspired me to download Cyberolas' awesome map update and upgrade my IARs with FrankieK's, Tyrl's and Jossie's mod (here: https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,1526.0.html). Flying for Romania over the Volga is now one of my favourite missions in my classic 4.09 install! :)

Excellent, thank you very much :)

Some of the buildings were retextured by Team Daidalos in the 4.12 patch, this is one of them (3do\Buildings\Industrial\FactoryHouse1). If you got 4.12 but youre also using Boomers object pack for example these new TD textures will be replaced so you need to extract them from the stock fb_3do25.SFS and put it into the #SAS folder. -> extracted TD building textures http://ulozto.net/xNGJJC6k/3do-7z
