Speaking of ingame markings:
What about the German markings? I've seen that, unlike with the British markings, there are .mrk files deposited directly in the Steam game folder under "paint schemes" which seem to overwrite whatever is inside the .SFS files. This is the case for the older Blitz models of the Bf109E (E-1 to E-4/N) and Bf110C (C-1 to C-4/N). Also the German markings on the Bf109Es and Bf110Cs, are very inhomogenous, differing greatly in size and position from one squadron to another. Is that a "bug or feature"?
As an experiment of sorts I went ahead and deleted these .mrk files inside the steam paint schemes folder which had the nice effect of providing homogenous markings of comparable size and position for all LW squadrons on the Bf109Es and Bf110Cs. The downside was that the Bf109E-4/N and E-4/N_Late all of a sudden had no markings at all anymore, no matter if they were ticked ingame or not. Seems like there are no marking files for these two Bf109s in the .SFS game files that the game can fall back to. There's no such issue on all other Bf109Es.
