Me-262 Expansion Pack released!

Mike,
thank you muchly for that. I'm intrigued by your reference to "the new Flight1 CD" - are you actually saying that it has been updated and hence that there are two different versions of the disc on the shelves ? I assume that you actually used the word "new" simply because it was only recently published, but thought I had better check to avoid being sorry when I finally have the chance to buy the CD (hopefully next month),
best regards, and thanks so much for all your wonderful Messerschmidts,
Ro
:ernae:

No, their CD hasn't been updated - you're correct that it was just a reference to its recent release. :)

Hello Mike,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
I re-downloaded the Expansion pack twice from your site, using my original download link (the last time yesterday evening), but each time got the original version, without the new camera positions (I checked that in the cfg file after installation). Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?<o:p></o:p>

Thanks!

I'm away for the weekend, but I'll look into it as soon as I'm back - I have the feeling the download link is still pointing towards the old installer. New purchasers are getting the updated version without problem.

Thanks for letting me know, I'll contact the store manager and have that fixed soon.

It's a fantastic plane, Mike! I'm very glad I can at last fly the nightfighter. Flying the plane at night is very atmospheric.
Nice pic, Wingmate. Did you make it yourself?

Two more mate, I'm at 22 thousand ft here and theres no visable oxy switch so this pilot apart from being a coward (This was the first intact 262 surrendered to the Americans) is also immune to hypoxia lol, well at least I can't seem to find the oxy supply anway (No switch or blinker but it aint the expansion as you can see) so my pilot is unmasked lol!

Need a nowotny paint Though

He got a phone call from the Fuhrer himself while he was out on the drink, he was surounded by women who crowed around him to here hitlers voice and the guy's story who I read said they were so hung over that they were both as white as chease when they met him lol, infact the guy who's story it was said he waited outside because he was ill from the drink, he said Nowy formally introduced him on the way out and he was very embarased lol, personally I admire this guy but not the Nazi's just to clarify that!!
It remains unclear whether Nowotny was killed due to engine failure or whether he was shot down by the USAAF, Ernest Fiebelkorn and Edward "Buddy" Haydon east of hesepe. In recent years, United States military historians proposed that Nowotny's victor may have been P-51D pilot Lt Robert W. Stevens of the 364th. Many witnesses observed Nowotny's Me 262 A-1a Werk Nummer 110 400 (factory number) "White 8" dive vertically out of the clouds and crash at Epe, 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) east of Hesepe. The Wehrmacht announced his death on 9 November 1944.

His score was over 250, which in my book earns respect a lot of respect!

We've got to honour Him by painting his bird!!

Any chance Gajit mate?
 
Great screenshots great mate :ernae:

The thing is Im finding that i cannot complete repaints as i dont seem to be able to finish them the the correct shine and without saving them with mipmaps so the detail goes blurry.

I will have a look and let you know if I start the Nowortny scheme
