P-51 Civilian question

Post by taildraggin68 »

I ask for help from this wonderful community.............I cannot for the life of me find the antenna textures for the civilian P-51. Does anyone know where precisely they are and what sheet they are pulled from?

Thanks in advance 8)

Hey man I sent you an PM about these before seeing this post here.
I'm not 100 percent sure but it's worth a shot what I explained in your PM. Don't want to post it here yet though until you find where they are.

Let us know if u find them.

Oh and they should be on the main palette. I think all the parts are on this main palette that has to do with the exterior of the plane. Most everything else will be for the interior, cockpit and wheel wells.

It's been a long time but looking at my skins try p51_c.dds. Center top is a long bar, I don't think that is it but maybe. Left of that bar are three objects. Possibly those are used for the antenna. I would have to start playing with it again to see.

I do know that there are several externals that on the cockpit sheets.

EDIT: I also see something on the same sheet that may be them. Right side just below what looks like the headphone jacks is a cylinder looking item. I painted that too and maybe it's the antenna.

WB_FlashOver,.... You were correct! It is on the p51_c.dds It took me all of about an hour to find them and it's not anything one would think that would represent these antenna's WHEEEW!

ORIGINAL PART: This is the "p51_c.dds" as Flashover had thought earlier.

No worries 68. Glad to help out. I'm glad Flashover thought of that cause i would of never checked the cockpit file... especially the VC standoff palette.

Yeah, the rest of the interior I had just made a layer of a bright color and checked, but hadn't gotten to that one as it really didnt make sense. But hey, now I can move forward with the paint.....well see if they adjust the alpha issue in v4.
