komemiute Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Hi everyone, after dabbing with texture-making in many others flight sims, I've been asked to make some more textures for AI planes here. Question is- Il 76 Candid. The template pack has a lot of stuff... how do I generate a texture usable by the game right now? Do I make a DDS for each file in the . template zip or I can just replace the ones I modified? Thanks.
joey45 Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) You can add new ones. No need to replace. Found in >>> DCS World\Bazar\Liveries\il-76md No need to touch any zip folders EDIT: havinga look at the Des.lua - {"IL76-MAP-01", 0 ,"IL76MD-SKIN02-01",true}; DO NOT EDIT THIS PART This tells to game that this file is a Diffuse. 2 is a specular file This is the file you named the skin aka IL76MD-USA01 or USA01 basicaly any name you want. true means its somewhere in a zip filder false means it's in the same folder as the description.lua The name of the folder is the name of the Livery ingame. on some you name the livery in the description.lua file. For .DDS yes. DXT5 is good. Edited September 3, 2015 by joey45 1 The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

joey45 Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 No probs. The thread got lost, thats all. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
