New Bort number question

Hy, guys, and gals:

I’m not intelligent enough to be able to produce skins for the F-16c, wish I was. But I have a question for the group: Am I the only one here that think that the “new” bort numbers suck eggs? They look fugly as h**l, and following directions as how to fix them, are beyond my level of incompetence.

Fire at will but stay safe,

Thanks, Jeeve, will try!

Hi Everyone,

I just tried Jeeve79's code to the description.lua file but still have the BORT numbers showing up on tail and nose of the F-16. Any other suggestions would be truly appreciated! I agree with CucoNegron, the BORT numbers are rather unappealing and I'd rather have my own numbers applied on my livery skins of each aircraft.

Cheers,

- Craig
