uscstaylor Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 (edited) Salute All I would like to present to you my updated MEGA skin pack for the F-16A/C mods. I hope you enjoy these as much as I did in making them. These skins took over 2 months to create. I was going to keep them private but I thought it would be a great way to share my love of this aircraft with all of you. So without further ado...Lets get to it shall we..:thumbup: OK The skins are total of 73 in all but with your standard game skins that comes with the game you should have over 70 skins if not more. If you have my other pack, then just delete the older ones first. I always install things in my game manually. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. I'm sure most of you won't, its pretty straight forward. If you could, I only ask to give credit where credit is do and take lots of screen shots. I'd love to see them with what you can come up with.... Salute All! PS My thanks to all of the skinners in the DCS realm who take the time to make the beautiful skins we can enjoy... Installation goes here: C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Bazar\Liveries F-16a F-16c f-16c bl.52d Just copy and paste all folders in the F-16a folder to the above folders. Make sure you have taken my old skins out or you will have double skins....Enjoy! If you would like to try the F-16 Mod then here's the link to that.

Charlie_01 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) Nice work mate! I'm going to add some more F-16 skins, each one of both A and C versions... Edited June 18, 2017 by Charlie_01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie_01 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 The only thing I haven't been able to figure out is how to stop the game from making double numbers on the AI planes tail. If you could show me how to do it then please send me a PM. I have tried all different ways with no joy. ***This is for Quick Missions only, everything else is fine*** You have PM.

toutenglisse Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Hi, thx for the skins but on some models (aggressors) the cockade (right word??) is twice (see picture). On a model like "desert scheme" the fus/rud pictures have no cockade so it's ok the us standard cockades are single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie_01 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) Hi, thx for the skins but on some models (aggressors) the cockade (right word??) is twice (see picture). On a model like "desert scheme" the fus/rud pictures have no cockade so it's ok the us standard cockades are single. This is a weird behaviour... To fix the well-known issue of the doubled country-markings should be enough the two lines {"texture USA-ZNAK-LIGHTGRAY.TGA f2 g0",0,"empty",true}; {"texture USA-ZNAK-DARKGRAY.TGA f2 g0",0,"empty",true}; you can find into the file "description.lua" that is in the livery folder. Do you have the file named "empty.png" placed into your DCS world\bazar\TempTextures directory? If you do, so you can maybe try to place as well in the same directory two empty (=transparent) skins named one "USA-ZNAK-LIGHTGRAY.TGA.dds" and the other "USA-ZNAK-DARKGRAY.TGA.dds". Then using Notpad++ (or a similar text editor, not the standard Notepad of Windows) you have to deactivate the two lines above placing a double "-" at the beginning as following. --{"texture USA-ZNAK-LIGHTGRAY.TGA f2 g0",0,"empty",true}; --{"texture USA-ZNAK-DARKGRAY.TGA f2 g0",0,"empty",true}; Let us know.

Charlie_01 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) Fix for doubled country-markings Ok, I've tested the new skins and I've just experienced the same issue. Few more tests and I've found out the right fix. The culprits as expected are the two lines written in previous post. Anyway the fix is even easier than I thought... Enough to change the lines from uppercase to lowercase!! LOL!! :megalol: :smartass: So it seems the .lua files are case sensitive... Good to know. :thumbup: Edited June 18, 2017 by Charlie_01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salute! {"texture usa-znak-lightgray.tga f2 g0",0,"empty",true}; {"texture usa-znak-darkgray.tga f2 g0",0,"empty",true}; I've not yet tested that too (too busy making my own skins), but it could be the same with the lines about the pilot. It maybe worth to check it as well. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscstaylor Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) These lines added to the lau were in effort to try and get rid of the double tail numbers, so in essence they aren't needed. You can even delete them from the lau file. Not sure what your talking about with the pilot line. My end the plane skins are all good to go. What issues are you having with the pilot? {"texture USA-ZNAK-LIGHTGRAY.TGA f2 g0",0,"empty",true}; {"texture USA-ZNAK-DARKGRAY.TGA f2 g0",0,"empty",true}; If anyone has an issue with skin pack please just send me a PM thanks Edited June 19, 2017 by uscstaylor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=OPS=Slider Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I'm having a small problem. All of the skins work fine BUT, canopy is still yellow, doesn't matter which skin I choose. Any ideas? I'm using 1.5.6 and default F-16 model, this might be an issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscstaylor Posted June 25, 2017 Author Share Posted June 25, 2017 It's a tag file that needs to b swapped out...I'll post you already know to mine tomorrow. Just swap it out . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscstaylor Posted June 25, 2017 Author Share Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) Slider try this and see if it helps you should only need the file....just download it and put it in your temp textures folder OK Here's the fix for the AI F-16 Canopy problem First download and install the file in your: C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Bazar\TempTextures folder Second go to each of your skin folders that have skin textures in them and open your description lau and place this text in there {"texture F-16.tga f2 g0",0,"f-16.tga",true}; Then save. If you have some other skins for the F-16 that are still having a problem then also add this f-16.tga file to your: C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Bazar\World\textures WorldTexturesTGA zipped file as well.
