The registration of new skins gives you tha ability to give them long names with explanations, etc. plus a thumbnail-picture of the skin. A very good feature is the clearly done replacement of 3dz-files if you use PAW-wireframes for planes and they have to be replaced by the original aircraft - SnM does that automatically and by just one klick. ECA-users will experience no loss of performance of the flyable planes by this feature. Click HERE to download.
