This is why you are getting that mosaic effect on the model, it can't find certain textures that are missing. Thanks @jocko417& @Mizzyfor your guys help, I'm now on the right path. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jocko417 Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 There will be a fairly large update to the Common Textures folder with the release of the Camo skins. Changes will obviously include the new tanks and pylons camo textures. The big change will be that each camo skin probably won't have to have the center fuselage portion, as it should be the same for all liveries. It will be included in the Common Textures folder instead, with the result that the individual camo skin files should be smaller. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NRG-Vampire Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Well, I have some suggestions to those F-104G/S model(s). As I see there are differences only at the under fuselage twin pilons/launchers and the vental fin(s). So, you (Kobra?) should merge the two model into one where arg70 or other non-dedicated arg# (visibility) will be able to change/visualize those parts through the livery-decription.lua: custom_args = (number/value). Moreover you can build the TF-104G on the model too. Merge all models and add visibility to the different parts and you will save a lot of work and resources.

Gotcha, but it's not a problem to export into another game-3D format/extension a DCS-ready "Merged-with-visibility-parts-3D model". MAX can handle those arg-based-visibilities. It's only a hide/unhide/reveal thingy. (a 3D modeller can do it manually as well: without visibilities) So, He can export both: seperated F-104G and F-104S models to FSX, FSXX, SF2, XP etc. formats I am RDY 2 help Edited January 12, 2021 by NRG-Vampire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
