I scaled right down to what seemed appropriate for a hand grenade but I didn't get any blast effect graphic on impact.
As to kitchen sinks, I did once throw out the cathedral model from a Wellington.

Re: Screenshots from 20 odd years ago - March 2004

Fixed it. Seems to be related to my slight reshaping of the wing.

I'll get straight to that
Probably a few more to come as I work back through the various theatres.

Little Wars and Obscure Planes
One of the things that is so interesting in fleshing out the Italy/Balkans/Ukraine map is the unknown little skirmishes and and the forgotton planes that flew in them. When Adolf Hitler ripped up the Versailles Treaty and started redrawing the international boundaries in central Europe he opened a w...
