There are a few ZA models that have the gunsights removed, mainly ones in civilian hands.

Rocking out at VFAT today.

Yeah, that's more destructive editing though, and when the next update comes out all of your modified description.luas will get replaced with the non-edited ones. So better to just delete the empty.tga that's causing the problem, since it's not used by DCS anymore in favor of empty.png.

When searching for empty.tga make sure you include zipped folders.

In the latter, delete the 2 texture files and set the empty instances to true in the descripton.lua

No it's an issue with any material that uses empty texture. I had it in my cockpit that I used empty as the base for canopy scratches and it was all white. Try a windows search in your base DCS folder for empty.tga and delete all instances, including zip folders. Do the same for your Saved Games folder.

Same issue I had. My bank wouldn't authorize a payment to SagePay. Glad to see the PayPal option is back.

My friend works for them and I'm about to as well.

Yep. I use it in Unreal. This will make my workflow in Quixel much faster for DCS.

Yeah we figured out the problem. If a mod you have uses an empty.tga DCS will use it instead of the new empty.png and just draw it as an opaque white texture.

Latest Modelviewer in 1.5.5 OB has a bunch of new keyboard shortcuts switching between different view modes. Shading modes: F1 - standard F2 - wireframe F3 - albedo F4 - normals F5 - roughness F6 - metallic F7 - emissive F8 - material errors F9 - albedo balance Common: Ctrl-O - load model Ctrl-C - show connectors dialog Ctrl-L - show liveries dialog Ctrl-Shift-R - reload shaders Looks like prep work for 2.5 and the new shaders/lighting system. Wondering how much work will be needed to re-work model textures.

Just did a quick flight in 1.5.5 with no line in the autoexec and it's the smoothest it's been in a very long time. Even maneuvers with stops (8-point) are the smoothest they've ever been over MP. Headed in the right direction!

Almost home.

About 7 years on and off.

Some high-altitude Mustang flying. :)

The alpha layer needs to be in the channels tab, not layers tab. And save as a 32 bit tga.
