These are the final versions, both have a natural metallic finish, what changes is the way the paint is applied and the type of reflection they give - both are weathered skins and both are high res 4096x4096 DXT5. http://www.lockonfiles.com/modules/Downloads/imageuploads/P-47D-37C%20Yellow%20B-SX%20...

I gave it a try, but still haven't discovered how, help please

I did not know that so much work would be needed, you are right then - it is better to save it for later and do a proper job and create a realistic version rather than just a cosmetic one. meanwhile ... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/thomasdw/fsx2010-01-1012-07-55-62.jpg http://img.photobuck...

Actually, it's not that easy to add. The Bubble Canopy has much different aerodynamics than the older "birdcage" and thus would require quite a bit of rework to the flight model. If you do a search of the forum, you'll find several posts on the work required to add a bubble canopy to the model. I t...

that should be pretty easy to add ... please ?

Thanks

I am going to give it a try this afternoon, the finish I got yesterday is OK for a modern fighter, I'll try to get a more realistic one for a WW2 fighter.

OK , so I'll do the same.

there are 3 files:

p47d_t_ALPHA
p47d_t_spec
p47d_t_spec_ALPHA

can you give me an idea of which does what ?

no, it really helped me understand it - thank you :) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/thomasdw/fsx2010-01-0517-26-42-07.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/thomasdw/fsx2010-01-0517-26-31-25.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/thomasdw/fsx2010-01-0517-27-17-82.jpg http://img.photo...

I found an app called DXTBmp, but I am still at a loss on how to do it.

I checked the other files that have that finish,

and there is a file p47d_t_spec that if I add to mine, give that natural metal finish,

in the paint kit, there is the same file, so do I need to edit that file ?

I was playing with a skin a bit, when I realized that I could use the base grey for a natural metal finish



but I am not that experienced with doing it, can someone indicate a tutorial or give me an idea on how to do it

Thanks !

first, Hello to all :) we just posted it, http://www.crimeanairwars.com/Frontpage2/P47/Poster.jpg a few months ago we did a review of the A2A P-40, and it took us a while to do one of the P-47 as we wanted to include a Video tutorial and have some more time to really get to know it, so it is a bit m...
