External fuel tanks

[Santus]

Hello fellow skinners!!! :)

 

I have a two part question on altering the textures of the external fuel tanks.

 

The first part is where can I find the dds files of the external tanks as they do not appear to be inside the aircraft's texture rar and the Second part is what is the code I need to add in my description.lua so that I may load the diffuse and the specular dds files I will create.

 

Come to think of it, I would appreciate the code to alter the parachute too but that is not as important as the external tanks.

 

thank you very much for your help beforehand. :pilotfly:

I did some thorough digging and was able to find the textures for the two tanks.

 

The are in the following zip:

\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Bazar\World\textures\AeroWeapons.zip

 

The edm files of the tanks in order to load them inside the model viewer are here:

Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Bazar\World\Shapes

 

Filenames are ptb-150.edm & ptb-275.EDM

 

Now if only someone would answer the second part of my question, I would be a very happy lad!

ok, second part is solved with this...

cheers.

Hey there.

I believe that there are no official files for the tanks. I am willing to share my own PSD files if you wish it but they are nowhere near of a professional quality.

 

Cheers
