New backgrounds will have a matching version for 4:3 too of course - so it stays unique.

Undoubtly the game gets a kind of new look by this. We know, we cannot please everyone with these new GUI features, but I think, most will welcome it in any way. As usual we are open for critics and suggestions after the release.
The beauty of all this is if you use HSFX you can have some cake and eat some too..


Custom Splash under HSFX 6.0.15

Custom Mission screen .. which was doable all along....

Great stuff guys.. It still floors me that this sim and this community has been a part of my life for a decade and shows no sings of abating.
