Mainstay Posted June 11, 2016 Posted June 11, 2016 Hi all im working on a Iranian Su-25T (Its based on their UBK pattern) livery for the upcoming straight of Hormuz area. But im having a problem in the livery description figuring out what the correct line is for the PTB-800. I dont have 3d max so i cant extract the .EDM files to see whats being used but i have the feeling the PTB-800 is being shared by the same one the Su-25 uses..... I tried the following line for a custom PTB-800 but it doesnt work. {"PTB-800-PAINT", 0, "PTB-800-PAINT", false}, Does anyone from the community or Eagle Dynamics team know what the line should look like for the Su-25T so i can make my own PTB-800 paint textures work ingame on the Su-25T? O This is the livery im working on :

Also many other combinations but it just wont work. Anyone else have a suggestion? Maybe ED? :helpsmilie:

Mainstay Posted June 14, 2016 Author Posted June 14, 2016 Used the tool looked at the material names and my first input should work but it simply doesnt. Now i understand why non of the later added liveries have working PTB-800 textures. For exmaple check the standard added greek livery for the Su-25T. It has PTB-800 textures but they are not used and my guess is because theirs a conflict somewhere. The custom PTB-800's work on the Su-25 and they are the same. So why doesnt the same line {"PTB-800-PAINT", 0, "PTB-800-PAINT", false}, work for the Su-25T? I mean it points to the correct file.....

I'm guessing that the livery search path is loaded after the primary model texture path, so the file PTB-800-PAINT.bmp.dds matches first from Bazar/World/textures/WorldTexturesBMP2.zip. Did you try giving it a different filename, like ptb-800-test.dds ? My liveries, mods, and missions for DCS:World M-2000C English Cockpit | Extra Beacons Mod | Nav Kneeboard | Community A-4E
CHSubZero Posted June 15, 2016 Posted June 15, 2016 Are you also sure, that "PTB-800-PAINT" is the correct and case-sensitive name of the material? Aviation Livery - Explore Military Aircraft Liveries My Mods: DCS User Files
Mainstay Posted June 15, 2016 Author Posted June 15, 2016 Hey guys i just tested this again and im an idiot. {"PTB-800-PAINT", 0, "PTB-800-PAINT-IRAF", false}, in my case just works fine ! I was looking in the modelviewer. Ingame it shows up sigh.... Sorry for the retardation ;)
gospadin Posted June 15, 2016 Posted June 15, 2016 Glad you got it sorted. I've never been able to get non-default skins for weapons to work in the model viewer, but then again i'm a hack. maybe someone else knows the secret.

crazyeddie Posted November 10, 2018 Posted November 10, 2018 Check you do not have another copy of that same texture in your Bazar/Temptextures folder, possibly from an older SU25T skin mod that you have not deleted, that would upset things.
