What a lovely screen shot Martin.

Yes indeed, I had to physically weld the gear up on the Catalina and on the Shinmaywa US2 water model too.

Thanks for the feedback, I used dxtbmp and integraded the Alpha Channel to the texture, but it still didn't show the windshield glass. Also, how do you make the roundels for the paints and is it possible to swap colors in photoshop? Because It looks like the Mylar on the pictures are similar to the...

This is the list from Brian's RNAS Yeovilton, as an example: GENERIC LIBRARY OBJECTS Default MAIW ATSUGI OBJECT LIBRARY MAIW EGXC OBJECT LIBRARY MAIW RAF Coningsby v1 MAIW BEAUFORT OBJECTS LIBRARY MAIW ABO LIB OBJECTS All MAIW packages MAIW GGSE OBJECTS LIBRARY Most US packages MAIW BRITISH MILTARY ...

The problem might be with the third party libraries that Brian has used quite extensively. Some are now included in the MAIW Object Libraries, but there are probably some that are not. We won't necessarily have permission to convert those unfortunately. There's a few objects I made for Brian, but fe...

Good job. Just check that you have incorporated the alpha channel into the texture - the cockpit glass doesn't appear transparent, but it might just be the direction of the light in your screen shot. The Mylar film on the side of the fuselage is also too dark. On the Bangladesh aircraft it actually ...

Not from me I'm afraid. The third sentence of my first post explains why not for the RAF Sentinels. The main purpose of the project was to produce the Sentinels for Paul. The E-11A's were a bonus. I would imagine that anyone with an interest in and knowledge of flight operations Kandahar would alrea...

All packaged and uploaded. As always, please give Greg a chance to make the files available.

I thought you were progressing with painting Brandon. You have already painted chequers on the Crusader (what happened to that?) and the ones on G-TFSI are no different to do in principle. I had an initial concern that they might not wrap around the fuselage because the mapping is side on only and t...

Just leaving my production line are the 5 Waddington-based RAF Raytheon Sentinel R1’s, or to be more precise, 4 Sentinel R1’s, since one has been withdrawn from service and is now in storage: https://i.imgur.com/sIkzEeJ.jpg The aircraft were produced for Paul, who is revamping my old FSX Waddington ...

Nice paints Dale. Well done.

John

Blue for inert, yellow for live I believe.

Open both paint kits in Photoshop. Copy the white airframe layer In the 130CG paint and paste it into the 130H paint kit. You will need to grab the layer and move it to align over the top of the existing Canadian blue/grey airframe layer. Once aligned you can switch off or delete the Canadian layer....

Actually, I've just checked that and the C-130H model has only sideways mapping for the fuselage so it should be very straight forward indeed.

John

That looks pretty straight forward jetrange, but you will need a bit of trial and error to line up the underside of the diagonal stripe, because it's mapped from beneath. Glad to see you are having a go.

Looking forward to seeing the paint.

John

You didn't make me unhappy John, just surprised that for P3Dv4 you would be content with a degraded texture, given the quality of the graphics in that sim version. I'm really glad that you have learned how to paint from a layered paint kit. It must be satisfying for you to learn a new skill and It's...

Good to record it here Miljan. I'm also going to add a suggestion from Steve for the Pakistan AFJF-17 so I don't lose it and also the LC-130H recently mentioned.

Good to see you are getting there John. You convert the texture in the same way you did for the Dxt5 as the source. Once you have the paint done in PSP, save a copy as a .bmp file. If you are using the paint kit it will be in 2048 x 2048 format. Load that into PSP and resize it (smart resize) to 102...

MIL_CARGO is assigned in my aircraft.cfg file and that should tally with all the scenery AFCADs that Brent has produced for the models.

I'm just starting the texture mapping stage for the new project Miljan, so it's certainly invalid for the time being. However, I want to review all the suggestions for the project after that one, and what's in this thread will be really useful. It might be helpful to spill the beans on the current p...
