OT: Change of Forum Logo
Only recently noticed the change of forum logo from long-time blonde nose-art girl ("passion for flight") to Curtiss P-40 with shark's teeth. Personally, I like it. I have a soft spot for the P-40 Warhawk/Tomahawk/Kittyhawk. (Often referred to as outdated and lacking performance, it was as...

Re: Graphical Artifacts With MSI 1080
Hi requiem Unlike 10 years ago, tech experts are pretty thin on the ground around the forum these days, and I don't claim to be one. But I can at least offer some suggestions. Number one, I'm sure you've already tried lowering the setting for particle effects, but I may as well mention it. BoB2 is n...

Re: Subscriber Modifications
Hi rogeroger. The line markings are fine according to Wikipedia: 'In the UK, the first "white line" road markings appeared on a number of dangerous bends on the London-Folkestone road at Ashford, Kent, in 1914, and during the 1920s the rise of painted lines on UK roads grew dramatically. I...

Re: BoB bubble gum cards
Amazing that you guys still have all those cards! My own Batman bubblegum cards collection long ago bit the dust.
Regarding your "Planes" set above, lima, could you please tell me what is the one in the bottom left corner?

Re: Luftwaffe pilot suit re-texture?
At the moment they all look rather like dark, which is rather beetle-like and stands out a bit strongly. Here's an interesting website: https://www.luftwaffesupplies.com/collections/luftwaffe-pilots-equipment They manufacture what appear to be very good quality reproductions of uniforms, mainly for...

Re: Subscriber Modifications
It's difficult with the passage of time to know what these aircraft really looked like. Several years ago I came across this amazing page which shows a detailed chart of Luftwaffe paint colours. It is compiled from books published by the leading experts on the subject during the last sixty years or...

OT: Some Nose Art With a Direct Approach
https://images2.imgbox.com/f9/a1/7ovLhwT1_o.jpeg Photo ca. 1917-18 showing a Rumpler C.IV, used for reconnaissance and bombing, reputedly a tough target. As to the message, I don't know how effective it was. I guess if an allied fighter pilot got close enough to read it then either laughter or a cr...

Re: OT - Wings Over the Reich released
I came in a lame 3rd ready to break the news! :) A couple of questions for Pat: What sort of numbers are in the bomber formations? Judging by the video and screenshots the night missions seem very dark. How are they to fly? https://images2.imgbox.com/05/24/1mVWolkq_o.jpg https://images2.imgbox.com/3...
