I'm going to assume you're using the old C model template set that has 6 files. You have to use the Lot 20 template that only has 2 files.

OML.....yup that's slightly embarrassing. Thanks for pointing that one out, you're correct. 🙂

This is my first livery but I'm not sure how to edit roughmets. Can somebody clean up the underlying VMFA-122, Marines, and Werewolves (on the fuel tank) please?

It should be the case that you cannot select these liveries in the game. If you have copied the entries from the description from ED, it will be like this. Change all entries in your description with "specular" to "ROUGHNESS_METALLIC". New trick from ED.

You're asking people to edit out things from a roughmet that someone else has made (actually, specifically me) and that is usually a no-no.

 

That said, you can just dash out the lines in the description.lua that have to do with roughmets and the game will just revert to using the default one.

That isnt the problem, 
He isn't having a problem with the Description.lua

His issue is that he is using a different livery as a base, meaning he has the squadron marks in the roughmet. 
I get where youre coming from, i know that MV does that, and in that case youre correct, but here its not the issue.

The Clean default textures are here
DCS World OpenBeta\CoreMods\aircraft\FA-18C\Textures\FA-18C.zip
And the fuel tank is in here
DCS World OpenBeta\Bazar\World\textures\AeroWeapons.zip

I have 600GB in skins in my Saved Games. 200GB of that is probably made by myself.

Sorry about that Megalax! I used this 4K Template (https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3334682/) and just now saw that he was using your Roughmets. I won't edit or use them.

So, I use the template to add an image to the tail fin, but how do I get it into the game? Is it DDS, or what do I do next?
