Title: Textures?
Post by NJ514 on Nov 16^th, 2008 at 7:32pm

I'm attempting to copy over the Acceleration white livery to the CS F/A-18D, think I have everything done right, but notice the following issue:

The canopy textures don't seem to be registering.. can anyone recommend a fix?

Canopy is on F-18_Main07_T.dds

To be slightly more helpful.. its these areas:

The odd shaped one in the middle right is actually the flat upper surfaces near the rear of the canopy.

Thanks for the reply igorski..

I see the F-18_Main07_T.dds file in the other 4 texture folders under the CS_FA-18D directory, but don't those correspond to the other paint jobs of the stock XLoad Hornets? Can I copy over any one of those files and have it apply correctly with the white livery scheme I am trying to convert?

In other words, say I copied over the F-18_Main07_T.dds file from the Swiss Airforce F/A-18D, which has a darker gray scheme than the Acceleration white livery.. wouldn't the canopy texture then be dark gray while the rest of the Hornet is the white livery texture?

Yeah, you just gotta edit it to be the colour you need ;)

As you can just about see here, I've made mine red for this repaint.
