At least look first. 115 sqn is an aggressor sqn based out of Ovdo. There are pic of them with red centre line AND red wing tanks, as well as red practise Sidewinders. Manat can use orange occasionally for the sidewinders. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Squadron_115,_January_2021_%2885015%29.j...

Just looked at what happens when I look at one of my FS9 models first time in MCX - In the Material Editor -The L texture does not show up at all, only the T texture. I wonder if we need to specify it as its a P3D to FS9 conversion. When loading an FSX aircraft the L texture is listed. Maybe as simp...

Got an idea. When you convert to FS9 remove the L texture first. I don't think you have to specify it. Ignore above. I think you may be right, try this one. It may fix the pilot body also. Tightened up the alpha channel, and removed the pilots body soft illumination completely. WSMG_F16D30_BARAK_L.z...

You might be onto something..
With FSX the lightmap parts are modelled separately and the L texture is applied to them. I wonder if it's merging the two textures onto a single part. Thinking it's two parts!

All I can think of for the screens is the format. DXT3 bitmap? Been a while for FS9 for me.

Main texture has me beat though!

Attached is a main texture for 022
DXT3 with alpha

Definitely fixes the screens, but I am not seeing the transparent fin.
Did you flip both the image and alpha when converting from DDS to BMP?

Main texture has me stumped..

Will attach the standard alpha channel for it, in the correct orientation for FS9..
Mark - You will need this for the textures I put in your folder, none have alphas .. sorry!

Sound like possibly the alpha channel? Or looks like i might have cocked up the L texture, yup there's an issue with the L texture on the rear screens...give me 5. See if this helps with the screens... Remove the TEST from the end of the filename. WSMG_F16D30_BARAK_L_TEST.zip Should be correct dxt3 ...

Did you check nightime for the light splashes for the taxi / landing lights?

Can you confirm that air brakes only deploy on the ground, as I get them turning onto finals. Can you confirm whether the textures need to be modded or not.

This is the correct behaviour.
They deploy before touchdown as in real life.

Will make sure to keep 32-bit versions of textures from now on also (I do have BARAK Block 40 ones, D's are complete, working on the C's)

Have placed the 32-bit textures for 109 sqn in your folder Mark. I don't think I have them for the two Block 30 BARAK Manat ones, or the ones at Ovdo. I will find the BMP weaps textures for them and upload later. I'm fine with either of you converting. 'Should' be a simple as grabbing the P3D versio...

I have 32-bit textures for the BARAK D's Block 30 if thats any help?

It seems that the xml editor didn't like '&&' and '&amp;&amp;' didn't seem to work. I got around it by amending the code section to :- <code>(A:GEAR HANDLE POSITION,bool) (A:LIGHT BEACON,bool) * if{ 100 } els{ 0 } </code> Basically replacing the 'and' with '*'. Not strictly the same...

Steve I would give it a go . You can put the models in your folder on the FTP site and I can get them from there .. Let me know .. Mark W.. Hi Mark, If Steve can let you have the method to redo them as FS9... I have just put something in your FTP folder you might like - 11 x P3D Sufa models. There ...

Never thought...what happens with the lights?
All mine are built in using attachpoints, at the least you would maybe have to add the entries for the light splashes for the taxi and landing ones?

All yours!
Would be nice to see them in FS9.

Is it only the flaps? That would hardly be a deal breaker!

Nice.

When I flew back form Okinawa (holiday) back in April 2023 there were a couple of F-15DJ's at Naha airport waiting to taxi.
