Don't see any reason why not.

If you guys are up for it, I'll go ahead and create an early Eastern Front DCG campaign with the biplanes and we can try it out this Friday. It will probably be USSR vs. Finland.

i have a specific campaign created with biplanes... you are going to have issues if you just stock (even with dcg) try to use biplanes and have any fighters. they'll all do ground attack (likely).

Understood. I would be interested in trying out your campaign then. It's at least worth a shot!

o.k. - i have been trying this the last couple of days. it is definitely fun and different. i sent Panzer the DCG coop campaign. he should be able to test it out before Friday. i will not likely be on Friday - I am picking Nidia up at the airport as she stayed in Mexico an extra week.

You all will need to download a skin pack I put together for this. it adds a bit of color that adds a little more of a WW1 flavor to it.

25MB, link:

uncompress these into your IL2/PF Skins folder...they will go where they need to.

Okay, skinpak downloaded and installed - do I need anything else as a client?
