These are great but do not reflect my style of play. Create a new set with the ships in every picture on fire and sinking and then I will feel right at home [:D]

In all seriousness, these are great. BTW where can I get your unit patch mod? I remember in the past you e-mailed it to me but I have not been able to find it.

What is wrong with this pic? Can it be addressed?

The issue here is that only one image can be assigned to an aircraft type. This particular squadron is equipped with the Avenger TBF-1 (slot 0495) which is mostly used by the US Navy.

A British aircraft image would be displayed if the unit was equipped with the Avenger I (slot 0025) or Avenger II (slot 0026).
Cheers,

Thanks for the explanation.

Regarding 832 FAA... Perhaps not inaccurate to see a British unit in American colours, at least initially...

More natural colors for bases, TF's, and some unit icons.

You should try the ground unit art replacements.
They look pretty cool too.[;)]

Thanks Big B!

I downloaded one of the files and (buttons?) all of my on-map icons went white, makes it hard to pick out the enemy submarine when all the icons are the same color. Windows 7, latest patch at home. No Babes yet.

Better stick with the stock icons if you like bright colors.

OK -

Everything else I've downloaded so far I like, the on-map icons were surprising.

Halsey, I am ashamed to say that only today I downloaded and tested your TF mission art bmps. They are great work and add a lot to the immersion of the game! Thank you!

I use Cathartes Planetop/side mod as well, also a fantastic improvement over stock graphics, but I did not tackle the rest.

Would love to try it, but tbh it is too much work to set up.

I barely got enough spare time for my PBEM at the moment, and as great as the rotating plane arts, the new ship sides, and the unit insignia mods are it seems a bit complicated to install and maintain. Also I play DBB, and I still have not figured out yet what of the mode is compatible with it and what not (sadly I think the unit insignia and ship art are not compatible for DBB, correct?).
