VikVaughan Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 (edited) DOWNLOAD This skin is based on Slovakia's digital camouflage paint scheme implemented on their Mig-29's. It's my first real skin for BS, so forgive me for any hickups. File is ready to be installed with Modman, headache free. Instructions are in the readme. Background These images of a real Slovak Mig-29 with the digital camo paint job were my reference/inspiration.

(alright its not that good :P ) *Final version features small black tail numbers instead of large side numbering.

Timm Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Hi Guys, Downloaded the texture, used MODMAN saw the the image over on the right but when in BS all I saw was this, Any clues in what has happened ?

VikVaughan Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 Hi Timm, that's unusual. I'm not too sure about the ins and outs of ModMan yet as I'm fairly new with it, but I think installing multiple mods might conflict with eachother. One mod migth edit a file that the other mod needed (unless the program is intuative enough to take that into account and simply add to the file instead of replacing it. That could very well be the case - I'd like to know actually). Sorry I couldn't be of more help. it's odd that TimA installed without any problem. Maybe someone else could chime in.

Timm Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Hi VikVaughan, I got it sorted. I went and had a look in MODMAN took out all the new texture folders and re-started MM and hey presto all working. And now I can see your great texture. Just one very small question please and this is not knocking your awesome texture in fact it's just an info one ? On the top of the tail that black line what ever it is is there a way it could be remove. Timm “Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. It comes to us at midnight very clean.

VikVaughan Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 Hey Timm, glad you got it working. The black line is meant to be a shadow (the top of the tail is slightly fatter I believe). The shadow appears on all the skins in BS. However, after you mentioned that I took a look, and it does seem a little too dark for such a light colored skin. I will tone it down in a future version.

Timm Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Hi Guys, First off, Thanks VV for an excellent skin for this beast. Just one question is it possible to add a number to the side ? I can change the various numbers with the default skins but not yours. Any suggestions. Timm “Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. It comes to us at midnight very clean.
