Lakenheath f-35's
I have just installed the recent paints released by Steve Barker and after converting current plans and adding new ones for the 495th FS was wondering if anyone knows what callsigns the 495th uses.

convert them yourself !
download DXTBmp app. open each texture one by one and change them from DDS5 to DXT3 don't forget to flip them and save it, then delete all the DDS textures add the DXT3 ones to the correct FS9 models and boom all done

On the Owlsnest website on the downloads dropdown there's Texture Manager utility.
This lets you batch convert/resize etc.

Re: Lakenheath f-35's
Dave,
It is easy to convert using Texture Manager. The key thing to remember is that the schemes are 2048x2048 so you must remember to select the Size/2 option under resize or they won't work in fs9.
If you are not sure just try one specific scheme to see what it comes out like before doing the whole directory automatically. Also the useful Update Source option will save you having to clean up the .dds files afterwards.
