1. Yeah it would be impossible for them to trace it back to you based on file alone.
2. When you hit the "start creating mod" button in the mod tools tab.
3. yeah there's a gazillion ways to do it, just find a file hosting service you like and you can link to it.
4. Yeah the f1 means "final release" or something like that, it is the correct version.
Ok respectfully you have 2000 points, there are literally thousands of people with more and no one really cares. The forums are not meant for stream of consciousness stuff. It's weird that it got taken down as this is not explicitly stated in the rules, this is hardly a super egregious offense but still, an announcement for a trophy at an arbitrary value (like not even a predefined points milestone, bruh just wait until 5K) is not something that the average person cares about. So to be fair I understand why you would be upset but I think you need to take a step back and realize that to most people other than you that post was pretty insignificant. Heck, I've done it, we've all done it, but calling people a nazi for taking down your post is a bit uncalled for. Also gonna nitpick you a little bit, free speech is not one of the "unalienable rights" in the Declaration of independence, we're talking about Life, Liberty, and Pursuit of Happiness. The government cannot take away your free speech, but places like this can. in this instance to keep from clogging up the forums.
I do really hope none of this came across in a negative way, just trying to be a bit more subjective here and see why people's opinions aren't lining up with yours.
PS threatening to leave does nothing, you already bought the game and they only get ad revenue if you're logged out
@Graingy
okey dokey then,
1. It doesn't save any data beyond things that you manually enter (i.e mod name, your username, etc.) and stuff like date created. You can also scrub typical file metadata like date created with some website or something if you're paranoid.
2. Basically if you get the title of the mod wrong when you're starting to make it you can't change it.
3. Yeah you just have to drop a link to a google drive, dropbox, or similar. The site can host files if they're small (iirc its anything under 2 mb) but most mod maps will be above that limit. If you're paranoid about this, set up a google drive account with a burner email from like emailondeck or something.
4. Nothing has changed to my knowledge, you do need a specific version of unity but that should be available for download.
It is actually super easy to do.
I made a tutorial a while back that should give you the information you need , here's a link https://www.simpleplanes.com/Videos/View/1918683/SimplePlanes-modding-tutorial
Also I know your hardware is very much capable of this, I used to use a laptop that I know for a fact is significantly worse than what you use.
(also holy crap my voice was so high pitched back then)
I'm not active anymore but I would be happy to answer any questions if you need help with it
@Graingy It's not a scam, it's a way to create a currency to allow the Graingy company to better serve the people. it is a highly volatile currency that the Graingy company can create artificial demand for, then they can dump their stockpile of it at that in-demand price in order to uh make more currency available. Yeah. Any lucrative profits are purely coincidental.
@windshifter1 afaik LevelsPlus just straight up increases contrast on everything. I'd try disabling that or at the very least trying to tone back the effect. If you're using LevelsPlus for some other reason, or this just isn't working, use a different preset with a higher priority to lower contrast or straight up edit the image in literally every editing software ever made. I threw that last one in the Windows default image viewer thingy and put it at -90 contrast and it was perfect.
also in my last comment I accidentally said saturation instead of contrast, my bad
Zoom mod and right clicking+dragging your mouse with the game paused and the UI hidden (F9) is the most important thing. Then Reshade, then mods. I have a Reshade tutorial if ya need it.
It looks great but that saturation is way too high. Try toning it back a little bit. That last picture looks quite good except for how weirdly dark the plane is. If this were a night/sunset shot it would be perfect but direct daylight is weird. Gives off crusty vibes on what are otherwise very well put-together images. I would like to compliment the framing and composition of these screenshots, that's one part of your skills that I have seen improve quite a bit.
your a terrible person
water freezes at your iq level
if they put your brain in a dog it would moo
I bet you say "see you later" and not "see you tomorrow" when its past midnight
you could lose a density competition to a bag of rocks
i bet if I poured milk in your brain it would sound like a bowl of rice crispies
your parents had you for the tax writeoff
your brain's so aerodynamic NASA wants to disect you
jk there's nothing wrong with you if anyone says otherwise they have the skin thickness of a mango and it's their problem not yours
@MobileBuilder21 I could but to be honest it's kind of a pain in the rear, sure I can recover some of their biggest builds but it's kind of tedious to do.
In the shadows of the moonlit night,
With eyes aglow, and fur of black,
There prowls a creature of sheer fright,
A villainous cat on a devious track.
Silent paws on cobblestone tread,
His whiskers twitch with devilish glee,
A silent predator, his hunger fed,
By the chaos sown, oh woe is he!
Through alleys dark and corners dim,
He weaves a web of wicked ploys,
No heart of gold resides within him,
His soul delights in shattered joys.
With claws that gleam like sharpened steel,
He leaves his mark on window panes,
A midnight bandit with nerves of steel,
Dread fills the night with his wild reigns.
The mice and rats, they tremble so,
At whispers of his fearsome name,
For he's a phantom, sleek and low,
A shadow dancing in the flame.
He stalks the rooftops, stealth and grace,
A specter of the night’s embrace,
A demon's grin etched on his face,
The city falls beneath his chase.
His emerald eyes, they pierce the dark,
His tail a whip of silent wrath,
No creature dares to leave a mark,
On the villainous cat's midnight path.
But every legend meets its end,
And so this tale must turn anew,
For even villains can find a friend,
Or face a dawn of different hue.
So as the sun begins to rise,
Our villain hides from daylight’s sight,
A whispered secret in the skies,
A villain cat that haunts the night.
And though his deeds are dark and grim,
A glimmer of redemption gleams,
For every villain, fierce and dim,
May find a place within our dreams.
I'm sure it can be done, certain mods are actually incorporated into the base game and while I have not personally decompiled the APK I'm sure the structure is pretty similar to how the mod would be installed if it didn't come prepackaged.
Fun fact, that picture's circumstances are mostly illegal, at least according to the AI search results, he's only doing a couple things right.
To take a boat on the ocean, you need to meet the U.S. Coast Guard's requirements for safety equipment. These requirements include: [1, 2, 3]
Personal flotation devices (PFDs)
Each person on board needs a Coast Guard-approved PFD that's the right size for them. Children 12 and under must wear a PFD on a moving boat. [3, 4, 5]
Visual distress signals
You need at least three devices for daytime use and three for nighttime use. These can be pyrotechnic devices, like flares, or non-pyrotechnic devices, like an orange flag and an electric SOS light. [1, 2, 6]
Fire extinguishers
The number and type of fire extinguishers you need depends on the age and size of your boat. [7]
Sound signaling devices
Boats 39.4 feet or less need a whistle, handheld air horn, or installed horn. Larger boats need a device that can be heard for one mile. [7]
Navigation lights
Recreational boats need to display navigation lights from sunset to sunrise. [7]
Other equipment
You also need a medical kit, anchor, bailing device, and a copy of the Inland Navigation Rules. [1, 4]
@GhostMach appreciate the respect! I don't do autotags, if you'd like to receive an alert when I post a mod or aircraft you can follow me, I know that seeing all the spotlights and stuff in your jet stream can be annoying but you can filter by things from your followed people. As for forum posts, I'd just recommend keeping your eye out, I don't post often at all so if you just happen to check my profile every couple months you probably won't miss anything lol
The builds you have right now are great for a bronze level player, keep at it and you'll be platinum in no time!
@StockPlanesRemastered yeah that's basically what I meant, the disc was required to run the game, but it wouldn't be running directly off the disc drive since that's pretty slow. Sometimes games would transfer chunks of data at a time onto the PC's hard drive, sometimes they'd do the whole game. So yeah you'd need the disc, the game wouldn't work correctly without it, but it's not technically running off the disc the way this Minecraft copy is (if I understand correctly)
you need 100 points for it to work, I gave you an updoot so you should be able to now, photos should be emdedded like this: 
whatever you do make sure that the image link has an extension (like .JPEG or .PNG) at the end, you can use a site like postimage to host your images.
