golani79 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 You can get the template here: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/texture_templates/mi-8_template/ The pattern itself you have to figure out with help of reference photos .. as the camouflage patterns are not the same with every livery. >> DCS liveries by golani79 << Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golani79 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Not entirley sure - my guess would be exhaust filters or something like that. Haven´t done a Mi-8 livery yet - you could just colorize it bright red / green or something like that and check in the model viewer which part it exactly is. Think they are removeable - so not sure if they are visible in the model viewer by default. >> DCS liveries by golani79 << Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golani79 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 You´ll need to open the shape of the Mi-8 in the modelviewer - modelviewer2.exe can be found in the following path \Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin The shape you can find here: \Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Bazar\World\Shapes\MI-8MT_lod0.EDM --> the higher the LOD number the less detailed so just load lod0 In the modelviewer open up the liveries tool, select the Mi-8 and then you can choose your skin to test it - you´ll have to place it in a corresponding folder and also have a description.lua for it. You can check out how this stuff should look like by taking a look at already existing skins on your harddrive which can be found here \Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Bazar\Liveries\mi-8mt 1 >> DCS liveries by golani79 << Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
