Hi folks,

Today we proudly present the "Pilots Notes for Cockpit Photos" Mod.
This Mod replaces the stock cockpit photos with short "Pilots Notes" which come handy during flight, containing engine operation limits, speeds, general notes of importance etc.

Download Link (Mediafire): IL-2 Great Battles Pilots Notes for Cockpit Photos v1.02

Installation:
This mod is ready to be dropped into your JSGME "MODS" folder.
Alternatively you can extract the files to the IL-2 Great Battles Game folder directly. In that case make sure to use available options properly.
NOTE: This Mod works even when "Enable Mods" is unticked, i.e. you are in "MODS OFF" mode.

Usage:
Activation is from JSGME.
"PNCP Base Version - Pilots Notes for Cockpit Photos" is the base version of the mod. Whenever you want to use this mod, make sure that the base version is activated in JSGME.
5 Options are available:
Option 1 "Metric values for GB and US Planes" replaces speed and altitude values on the notes for british and U.S. planes by their metric equivalents. This is mainly focused on newcomers who are using the game's HUD in order to estimate speed and altitude and who have set their HUD to always show metric values.
Option 2a "German Notes for Luftwaffe" shows the notes for Luftwaffe planes in german language.
Option 2b "Fraktur for Luftwaffe" shows the notes for Luftwaffe planes in "Fraktur" typeface (english language).
Option 2c "German Fraktur for Luftwaffe" shows the notes for Luftwaffe planes in "Fraktur" typeface (german language).
Option 2d "German Sütterlin for Luftwaffe" shows the notes for Luftwaffe planes in "Sütterlin" typeface (german language).

You can only activate one of the "Option 2" versions at a given time as they all touch the same files.
You can activate no option (and just use the base version with english "Typewriter" fontface for all notes), or just Option 1, or just one of the "Option 2" versions, or Option 1 and one of the "Option 2" versions together, that's up to you.

These are some examples what the different flavours look like. Click for full image size.

Very Nice! Thanks

What a great mod idea. All of these games have always needed a kneeboard feature of some kind. I’ve been printing out cards with this type of info for each plane I fly in BAT. Wish there was some way to implement this feature in 1946/BAT, even as a HUD pop-up.
