HD / True Color Mod v1.1 (4K Skins)
« on: September 25, 2014, 08:51:45 AM »

Hi Folks,

this is version 1.1 of the "High Resolution / True Color Textures Mod" Package. This is the follow up of v1.0 posted here: https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,33239.0.html
It enables you to use Textures with HD resolutions (up to 4096 x 4096 pixels now) and true color, even for custom aircraft skins from the "PaintSchemes" folder.
A big hand to carsmaster for his permission to include his high res DLLs into this mod package.
Also many thanks to the sample skin creators: Buhli (Fw-190A-8/A-9 4K Skin), RDDR (P-47D-27/-late 4K Skin) and SAS~GJE52 (various Spitfire 2K Skins).





Please find the second public Release version v1.1, for download below:

I'm getting tired of this internet crap.
What the flying f**k?
Mediafire doesn't tell me anything about what should be wrong with that file. I can download it flawlessly and it's listed properly on my files.
But anyone else can't.

Argh!

Another two hours to search for another file hoster? No.
Volunteers for mirroring this file, please post here.

Best regards - Mike

... I believe it is because of the DLLs that they are blocking the file ...

I'd gladly mirror it except I can't first DL it ...!  :'(

Mike please tell me if the file is less than 25 Mb, then I'll give you my Gmail address and DL it from there and then upload it somewhere else ...  ;)

The file size is 114MB. I'm currently uploading it to a different mirror, let's see what it gives.

Very nice. Thank you. :) Bug.. the P-47 skin, on the under belly the writting is backward as if looking at writting in a mirror. Also, I'm not sure about this as its been sometime since I flew the P-47 but could the new dll's cause this.....



The outside view, the canopy goes up and down instead of rolling back or forward.

I'm sure it must be another conflict but since I dont change dll's often, I thought I would ask.

+1 from my "experience". That was a typical classfiles incompability bug with early HistoMod versions if used on top of default modpacks, canopies inverted, moved forward etc.
