26.11.2006:
I have finally had some
time to do new missions and I've
now uploaded four of them.
08.11.2006: Added few links.
29.10.2006: I started a new
project: Maps of Winter and Continuation Wars. So far I've
finished maps of operations on Karelian Isthmus during the
Winter War. You'll find the maps from the Info
-section.
26.10.2006: Re-arranged the links
again. I divided them to categories and added some new links.
21.10.2006: The
Blue Sky, Red Earth -campaign is
finally out!
15.10.2006:
A
little campaign update: I've just started final tests and if
everything goes without problems, the campaign will be
published soon. Due the lack of time I had to make some
compromises with detailing to get this out before the end of
this decade...
12.10.2006: Replaced
the FAF airbases -map with better ones. Two versions (full
colour & low-colour) available in the Info-section.
05.10.2006: Re-arranged the links-page
and added a picture gallery link.
17.09.2006: Updated the page about
Finnish armored vehicles.
13.09.2006:Added a page about
Finnish armored vehicles into the Info-section.
10.09.2006: New design for the site
along with the new address: www.porsimo.net
If
you have links to this site, the old addresses should mostly
work except links to historical info.
I
also added few new wallpapers I had
laying on my HD and opened a new guestbook (the old one has
been dead for some time now as you may have noticed). Feel
free to drop a line or two. The links are on the top of the main page.
Links
are checked through, broken ones removed and a bunch of new
ones added.
20.08.2006: Added
a page of military awards of the Order of the Cross of Liberty
in Info -section.
10.05.2006:
Updated IL-2 Season
converter to version 1.1. Highly recommended, as in 1.0 map
conversion doesn't work properly.
06.05.2006: Added an utility for
download in the Miscellaneous
-section. This utility is IL-s Season converter and with it
converting missions from summer to winter and vice versa is
quick and easy.
18.04.2006:
The missions are now
done (130) and I'm next going to go them through and do some
detailing work plus complete the briefings ("personal
notes" telling about historical facts).
Release will be in few
weeks, unless we get the Fokker D.XXI before that. In that
case it'll be a little later :)
26.02.2006:
Added a couple of
noseartpacks for download. You'll find them from the Skins
-page.
08.02.2006: Added slightly reworked
pilot skin pack of 37 FAF aces, few old plane-skins and a
noseartpack of 4 nosearts for download. You'll find them from
the Skins -page.
03.02.2006:
Added a map of airbases
used by FAF in the Info -section, added nicknames for
Karhila,
Pallasvuo and Magnusson
in the aces -lists.
Fixed the link to planetypes in the Flying
Knights -page.
And finally updated the
Brighter downloads
with Spanish language files.
02.12.2005:
Added the training
programs used during the Continuation War for Brewster B-239
(designed by major G. E. Magnusson) in the Info
-section.
27.10.2005:
Few minor updates:
- Added the date of
death for Puhakka and Karu in the aces
-list
- Corrected Pokela's kill count in the aces
-list
- Added a little sidenote to the detachments
/ abbreviations
- Added a missing sidenote to the Unit
emblems
- "Official" Campaign
update
23.10.2005:
Ok. I've been asked
about the Blue Sky, Red Earth -campaign lately a lot, so I
thought a little "unofficial" update would be in
place.
The campaign is not
dead, but it's still far from ready. My good intentions to
work hard with it during the last summer were drained as
the summer and the fall both turned out pretty busy. The work
is also very slow and tiring as I check the details from
several books while making the missions. Anyway, the situation
is following: The date is still in fall 1941, but I have
already over 40 missions made so I haven't just goofed
off ;)
If we get the flyable
Fokker D.XXI in the upcoming addon and the addon is released
before I finish the campaign, I will rework all the Winter War
missions before releasing the campaign (because Fokker is the
correct a/c instead of Gladiator). Otherwise I put it out when
finished and release later another version with the Fokker (if
flyable).
Now, back to work :)
...
18.10.05:
A
little change to the site layout. I also separated
historical info and miscellaneous stuff from each
other. From now on things like Brighter, FAF font,
object lists etc. will be found behind the Miscellaneous
-link.
19.08.05:
Updated Brighter to version 2.2. This version is
multilingual supporting English, German, Finnish
and Spanish, but you can easily add more languages
into it by yourself. Also some bug fixes.
Get
newest version from here.
05.08.05:
Added in Miscellaneous -section for download an utility for Bright
palette conversion tool which gives a graphic
interface to it. * UPDATED * Version 2.1
02.08.05:
After a long period of silence... Added in Miscellaneous
-section for download a font which was used in
registration markings of Finnish military planes.
Hope it helps skinners who make Finnish skins :)
28.04.05:
Added a guestbook, so feel free to comment. :)
Also checked the functionality of the links
(Apr 26th)
17.04.05:
Added six new wallpapers...
16.04.05:
Comleted
the list of Finnish fighter aces. Basic data of
all 94 Finnish aces can be found in the Info
-section.
31.03.05:
New look for the site and a couple of new skins:
A Finnish liaison -plane skin (Swedish style) for
U-2VS representing FW-44j Stieglitz and a civilian
airliner skin for FW-200 representing Ju-90
civilian airliner "Oldenburg" .
I
also removed the Screenshots -page, because I
think it just took web space without any
reasonable use. You can find my newer and perhaps
better shots at ScreenshotArt.com
25.03.05:
A
"reopen" of the skins
-section. Uploaded a skinpack of 9 civilian
airliners from the 30's and 40's for Ju-52.
Following airlines included: Lufthansa (2), Aero
Oy (5), Malert (1) and DNL(?) (1).
19.03.05:
As you may have noticed, the campaign was put in
the ice for a long time. But no more!
I
finally found my long lost notes for it and I'm
back to work again. I'm still in the middle of the
Winter War, so it's far from finished, but there
is already 15 wartime mission ready.
The
campaign has now also a official name: Blue Sky,
Red Earth - Fight against the Giant.
28.02.05:
Added a quick overview to FAF in WW2 in the Info
-section. This overview includes lists of
dislocations of flight regiments. These lists are
not accurate which means they are showing the
situation on certain date. Usually their structure
changed a lot between these dates.
The
overview includes also all known unit emblems used
during the Continuation War. If wished, I may post
a .psd- versions of them.
In
the aces-list, I added "Hasse" Wind's
data at last. I couldn't find his last promotion
date for now, though...
I
also emptied the Skins -page since all downloads
were from IL2Skins.com
I haven't yet decided the future of that section...
20.01.05:
New semi-historical mission for the Pacific
Fighters based around the battle of Kuuterselkä.
17.01.05:
Again new
mission for the Pacific
Fighters.
16.01.05:
New
mission for the Pacific
Fighters. I also moved the previous mission
under its correct country (GB) as it was under
Japan by mistake. Sorry for the confusion.
11.01.05: Added list
of flyable planes in the Info
-section. AI planelist wil be added soon. The list
is from version 3.03m, and it will be updated *when*
new planes arrive ;) Note!
These lists include planes in the merged install
of Pacific Fighters (FB + AEP + PF)
22.12.04:
Added
first mission for Pacific
Fighters. It's been made rather quickly so
don't expect anything fancy :) In
the future all missions I publish for PF are for
merged install, i.e. PF + FB & AEP.
05.12.04:
Added
Object lists for Forgotten Battles (AEP) + Pacific
Fighters (3.01m) in the Info
-section. Two versions available: A zipped
MS Word -file and a printable
HTML -version.
16.10.04:
Replaced the e-mail -link with a new feedback
page. I
would like to have some feedback about the site
and also I'd be pleased, if you would send some
suggestions too how to improve the site. You may
ask questions too and I will answer if I only can...
14.10.04:
Added seven new wallpapers. Updated the "Flying
Knights" -list under the Info
-section with small photos and added missing
data.
29.09.04:
Added
two missions based on
actual events on the Karelian Isthmus. However,
there are some inaccuracies in details and they
don't base on any particular mission. Both missions are actually the
same. The other one
is from the German point of view and the other one
from Soviet side.
24.09.04:
Nothing
much this time. Some
fixes to main page's appearance.
I also uploaded printer friendly versions of the
lists under the Info -section, except the aces
-list. I will upload it when the list is finished.
22.09.04:
Added two new missions and a
new section called Info. Under
this section I've gathered (and will gather in the
future) miscellaneous info about (mainly) FAF's
history. I
also removed the news-page, because it was pretty
obsolete...
10.09.04:
Added
new mission and some screenshots
06.09.04:
New screenshots again
02.09.04:
Added
new screenshots
01.09.04:

26.08.04:
Added Links -page.
06.08.04:
Added skin downloads. The skins
are actually located in IL2Skins.com
09.06.04:
Added
one mission, two screenshots
and two wallpapers (made of those new
screenshots)
03.06.04:
Added
a mission to Missions-section
27.05.04:
Added
a list of Finnish detachments and their abbreviations for mission
builders
