Thanks to Royohboy for posting this link a while back. This is the best media viewing tool I have ever seen. You can thumbnail a whole directory and quickly check out all graphic, motion, and sound files.

This is the easiest thing I have ever seen to untiff the textures in SDOE.

I could see all the textures in the Africa terrain (over 100) in a full screen of thumbnails before I even untiffed them.

Then I untiffed all those textures (over 100) in just a couple of minutes using the batch converter.

It is called IrfanView and is a small download @ 500k. Best yet it is FREE.

Hope you like it as much as I do.

Thanks for the heads-up Raider, it looks a nice little utility. Although I'm coming to the end of my projects in SDOE (70+ skins and 6 cockpits) I still have a few things I would like to have a look at.

That sounds a lot faster than how I untiffed Dover (409 pics, without the about 100 pics of airfields), one by one. I also made all the files dark one by one. I never understood why noone ever made a nice untiffing machine anyway.

No IRG, just taking a sabatical from painting for a while. I'm going to try something a bit novel for me - actually playing some games. I've bought only 2 since Christmas '98, SDOE and recently Unreal Tournament.

I got UT in the mail last night. I found myself swearing back at the bugger when I got stomped several times in a row while taking the beach in 'Normady' in assult. UT just makes pretty what I was spending most of my time doing in Unreal - team deathmatch and 'Capture the CD' . I hope it doesn't distract me too much from finishing the rest of the Viper....

Yardy has been ordered to a training staffel so's he can log some long-overdue hours on the 262. Seems he was getting a little too cosy with the techs and their paint-sprayers down at the hangars.

What I will be doing over the next few weeks is releasing all my updated skins. Many of these have been completely overhauled and quite a few have never been released before. The new 109s are nice and as are a couple of new Fw190s.

The original Fw190s have almost all been overhauled as I have learned new techniques. There are a few Spits and even a JV44 Me262 that I have been keeping to myself.
