Folks, quick question : does anyone have a quick fix on how to allign the tail and rudder part of the skin? I can't get it right, except ny 137 trial and error, pixel by pixel, and it's driving me crazy!

Im not sure if this is bug, however I recently noticed that all the 14 skins i have are defaulting the wing pylons and underbelly pylons with the generic weathered gray. What would change this?

 

I dont really dive around files too much, with the exception of changing the name of the skin so its in order in game, using notepad. noticed it today

Welcome to skinning the Tomcat. All I can say is I have not found an easy and consistent way, no.

Aw hell, I figured it out in the end, but what a darned ride this has been!! I'll try and post a couple screenshots of my virtual squadron bird I did later on today or tomorrow.

 

 

BTW, does anyone have a helmet template to work with?

It's the price we all need to pay to the God of Cool! :D

 

 

Sometimes I'd wish I didn't have stupid ideas to do skins for these birds! :lol:

 

 

I'll try to post some pics tonight, quite happy as to how it turned out.

Does anybody know the font used for the BUNO plate? I'm trying to edit the cockpits for my group so that the BuNos match the jets, and I can't get a match for the font. Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe this will help?

Hi there. I'm working on gathering all the files in a location that has better speeds.

 

You can find it here:

Thank you for responding so quickly and to a minor thing.

I also found some weirdness in the UVWs along the back of the aircraft around the vertical stabilizers, it messes up the red stripes when you do high vis style liveries:
