Corsair7662 Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 #1. did you try all the F-15 paint schemes in the selection? #2. rename it to F-15-OKRAS-1 and dont convert it to .dds just leave it .bmp first then put it in the temptextures. #3. once you find out what skin it is, just to into your meinit.xml and edit it and make the first paint scheme yours by naming it like "MINE" or something to give u reference. Tell me if it works then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadman Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 thank u for u help but the same problem! let me tell u exactly what i did, 1-extract isreal F-15c as "F-15-PAINT-R-DEF-4" to TempTextures. This is ok but its better to down load Veldcaths teplate http://www.lockonskins.co.uk/index.php?page=skins&offset=40&order=SKID Color it with what ever program you have. 2- what i did change the flage and make the coler dark. 3- save skin as BMP rename it "F-15-PAINT-R-DEF-5" No there are only 4 skins bases for the F-15 The Israel F-15-PAINT-L-DEF-4 and F-15-PAINT-R-DEF-4 right. There are 10 diffrent tails. The tail for the Israel F-15-FIN-PAINT-DEF-10. If you name the bitmaps that you make with these names they will show up when the Israel is selected in the country and the F-15 is selected in the plane selection 4- put it in D:Eagle Dynamics\Lock On\Bazar\TempTextures OK 5- then open lockOn, editor mission , chose israel F-15c then no change! Because you named the file Def-5 There is no such file name please if there any cleare and simple way tell me becouse this is the first time. This should work there are also some tutorials on the net http://www.simmerspaintshop.com/index.php?page=home https://www.shapeways.com/shops/a-10c-warthog-supplies https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.

Deadman Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Try these two TGA files put them in to your temp textures file they should remove the numbers on all F-15s and the F-5 . https://www.shapeways.com/shops/a-10c-warthog-supplies https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.

Strike one I am away from home on a buisness trip and wont be home for two to three weeks . I made the changes to the F5 tga in about five minutes before i left home for the airport. i dont under stand what problem you have now. For me to make the changes I need to know what skin your choosing and want to change by aircraft and skins name and what you want to change or if you cant wait just extract the same file for the F-5 from lock on and use gimp to change it the way you want it. Sorry if this is not legible just got off a 15 hour flight later https://www.shapeways.com/shops/a-10c-warthog-supplies https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.
