Over Flanders Fields
I just downloaded Phase 2 of OFF and installed the main game (the skin pack is DLing as I type). I forgot to patch CFS3 to 3.1 after reinstalling CFS3 -- do I now have to uninstall OFF Phase 2, patch CFS3, and then REinstall OFF Phase 2? Or is patching CFS3 not a major problem?
Thanks |

If I'm correct the manual states that its needed to install the patch 3.1
if I remember correctly *install CFS3 *Run it once till the main menu (so some files will be created) *patch it to 3.1 *install OFF by following the Readme file good luck and happy flight HunterICX

I finally decided to re-install CFS3 just so I could try Over Flanders Field.
I downloaded all the "Core Files" I Patched CFS3 to 3.1 I ran CFS3 I tried to install the OFF fills but it stated I was missing "Phase 1" What is Phase 1?? Everything on the Download page refers to Phase 2.

Thank Guys,
I found the problem, it was a bad download. It installed/upgraded just fine after the 2nd attempt at downloading the files. Odd thing is that when I try to fly on the British side, I get error messages about Skins missing and it just assigns the "Default" skin. I've checked and it appears that the "Aces" skin that is required, are missing. I tried to just copy another skin (after making minor changes) and renaming to the missing file to fix the problem. It worked but I have no idea what the real skins looked like and the program I used can alter some of the color balance and save as a ".DDS" file in "JPEG" format. However, it does not allow me to actually change each pixel. If these files are really "JPEG" files with the extensions changed, then I can make the needed changes for the missing files. Has anyone else had the problem with missing "Skins"?

Any idea what I may have done wrong? The install went fine. The Sim looks great. I've tried to re-Install the Skin patch but so far, no change.
So far, all I've tried is the British side.

I dont know if the forum might have answers of the OFF website. too bad they havent posted the MD5 key on their downloads so you can check it with a MD5checker.

Thanks for the info but I think there was a problem.
d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e *OverFlandersFieldsPhase2ReleaseV1.0.exe d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e *OverFlandersFieldsPhase2SkinsV1.0.exe Both these have the same Checksum total. I guess the good news for me is that the Skin file was correct for what I had. So I may either have to re-install everything again or just post the missing Skins to see if anyone has them. After running MD5, this is what I got for the 1st file: ea0532ee8d90fd08c031bcb153ce98ed *OverFlandersFieldsPhase2ReleaseV1.0.exe
