Default Map Upgrade pack v3

This map pack upgrades many map textures with more realistic or interesting ones. The result is a more immersive, colorful scenario. I tried to use the newer Slovakia and especially Romania textures a lot, because they're much more realistic then some of the old ones.
The pack also inludes separate high clouds layers. I prefer to have the dense version on most maps.

Important: these map mods work only in 'Perfect' mode without problems.

  SKINMOD  
     
  This mod provides you the basic folder structure for creating your own default skins.

How to make a new default skin?:
I assume that most IL-2 fans got a large collection of skin already installed, so finding new defaults wont be a problem. First, make sure, that in conf.ini parameter "ClearCache" is set to "0",
then launch the game and run QMB with the choosen skin.

For a summer Bf-109F4 skin you need the following files,
which will be automatically generated once you viewed a skin in the QMB, on the arming screen:

-skin1o.tga
-skin1p.tga
-skin1q.tga
-skin1o.tgb

(these are different resolutions of the same skin, being switched when view distance is changed)

The location of generated files will be
C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\PaintSchemes\Cache\Bf-109F-4\

You must copy these files to
C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\MODS\SKINMOD\3do\plane\bf-109f-4\summer\

Launch the game if its not running, check the skin.
If the game is running then if you alt+tab back to the game from the desktop after the copy-paste procedure the new default should immediately appear on the arming screen in QMB.

The pack also adds new summer/winter default skins for the following types:
Ar-196A-3, C-47, Fi-156, Fw-189A-2, FW-200C-3U4, Ju-52_3mg4e, Ju-52_3mg5e, Li-2, PBN-1, R-10, U-2vs

The pack does not add 'desert' folders for some US planes which is used also in PTO (P-51 for example), you can create these manually if needed.
