Repaint will not work.

Post by B-17 Flier »

Hi, I found a cool repaint I like, it's called Yellowbird for the 182. But it will not work in P3Dv4.1

I have several other repaints that work but this one doesn't show, it also has a lot of extra files in the folder compared to other repaints. Are some of these incompatible and if so which ones should I delete to I can see it? Or is this not possible

Thanks much.

It is a bit difficult to answer this one without concrete information. Could you perhaps post the aircraft.cfg file and the content of the variant folder.

Thanks. The paint should work in 4.1 too.

The files with "c_x" and a number refer to cockpit files. The aircraft texture file is c182_t.

I cannot see anything wrong in the aircraft.cfg . Make sure that the foldercthese files are in correspond to the entry textre= entry.

Also, have you changed the first entry [flightsim.x] to the last number +1 your main aircraft cfg file?

I had the Yellabird folder in there, not the texture folder. Works great now, thank you for your help.
