what I do not require: the knowledge how to change AC skins or graphics, or make new graphics
what I do require: knowledge how to change the stats (top speed, fuel load, and most importantly armament) or existing IL-2 planes
please enlighten how this can be done, no matter how complicated it may be, i am here to learn and contribute my creations to the IL-2 community
OK, for each new "mod" airplane you download, there is a list of things you must add to your game
for the airplane to fly correct.
You have to add certain lines of words to your Air.ini files and Weapons.ini files and whatever else
the maker of the new airplane will ask you to do.
Many times he provides this information in a list that acompanies the download of the airplane...
Copy the list to your PC folder and then start adding the necessary lines to your files for this to
work correctly in your game.
Always make sure to save a copy of the original file in another part of your computer, so in case
you did something wrong, you can always go back to your original list.
Once you have added these lines to your game and also a new skin folder for the airplane skins,
you are ready to fly it.
To change gas, weapons and whatever else, just use the main window at the begining to select
these loadouts for your airplane.
It is very very easy
