Eastern Front install...

Given the sudden interest in things Russian, I wonder if this is any use... Full set just uploaded.

The UI music will be the "Internationale", of course.

There's this, as well. Utterly unrealistic since the Sovs didn't use them, but not implausible at all. Uploaded.

I might do a Finnish one, too - that's even more plausible. They were desperate for almost any aircraft they could get their hands on and skilled enough to get the best from them too. Except the Caudron...

Bostons also, maybe?

I especially like the "Dosvidanya Rodina" bit... It is the job of any self-respecting airman or soldier to help the Soviets to die for their country...

Bostons also, maybe?

Already done - look in the downloads section.

Looks like a great idea for ETO era 6 in a future update?

Nigel, I just downloaded your new splash screen set. I really hate to tell you this, but the common_screens folder in the uires folder is empty. No *.BMP files there at all. There are no splash.bmp and splash_notext.bmp. Only the splash24b.bmp is there, in the cfs3 root folder.:d

 

[ndicki]

Oh bugger. I'll put up a new one. In any case, it's actually the same image three times over, so if you've got one, in fact you've got the lot. Just copy and rename.
