Noticed that the US had Me262 sprites in mid 1940's. Will Germany ever get these when fighters researched/upgraded? Or stuck with Bf109 whatever (in 1.06)?
I'm not exactly sure what's supposed to happen when. Figuring out the difference between mods, bugs and WAD is half the trouble - too many cooks spoil the broth. But I agree that Germany is more entitled to the 262 sprite than anyone and will try to ensure that you get this. I may upgrade that temporary fix to cover higher levels. What stopped me before was uncertainty about the level 2 neutral fighter sprite - the one shown in the T-FIGHTER A-* C-MIN L-2.bmp files. Does anyone know what type of plane that is? A Mustang?

I found a sprite glitch in 1.06c. The level two German fighter (e.g. FW190) looks wrong when it's in combat. To correct this, please delete or rename these files from GFX/map/units:

T-FIGHTER A-FIGHT C-GER L-2 D-NE.spr
T-FIGHTER A-FIGHT C-GER L-2 D-SW.spr
T-FIGHTER A-FIRE C-GER L-2 D-NE.spr
T-FIGHTER A-FIRE C-GER L-2 D-SW.spr

It's safest to rename the files to have a different qualifier, like ".bad" so that you can reverse the fix, if you get it wrong.

Yeah in 1.06c the sprites for the german fighters at least are still messed up when in combat. Its a thin line with arrows going back and forth. Damn hard to click on. :)
 
Ok i did the fix and everything seems to be ok but the battle where i usually get the problem is when i have fighters from mannheim, frankfurt am main and essen on intercept missions to saarbrucken. Since the fix i havent had any battles like that though. Ive had a few other battles but it seems fine.

Sorry Colonel, but I do not understand what do you mean by renaming those files. The name is the same either my files and the ones you say.
He said "delete or rename" because those files are causing the problem so we don't want the game loading them. Deleting, renaming, or moving them elsewhere accomplishes that.
