Thanks joey45 and Strut. If it wasn't for the guides and helpful answers I've found here and elsewhere I wouldn't have gotten far at all, they've been worth their virtual weight in gold!

 

I've used the colouring method to identify parts in the past and it's a good one for sure. But I'll have to work at creating my own cam patterns like you mentioned Strut. Trial, error and plenty of patience it is then!!

With the upcoming release of the F-14, I've started looking into making "historical" series of liveries, starting with VFA-136. So far I've got liveries for circa 1991, 1994, and 2007. Still looking for good reference imagery for anything circa 1987. So far only pilot texture accurate for 2007 livery, need to make one for '91-'94.

 

ca. 1991 - CVW-7 (AG) aboard USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69)

  • Operation Desert Storm
  • TEAMWORK '92

ca. 1994 - CVW-7 (AG) aboard USS George Washington (CVN-73)

  • Operation Deny Flight
  • Operation Southern Watch
  • Operation Vigilant Warrior

ca. 2007 - CVW-1 (AB) aboard USS Enterprise (CVN-65)

  • Operation Iraqi Freedom
  • Operation Enduring Freedom
  • Last year before transitioning to the F/A-18E Lot 30

That skin has been completed, and I am about halfway done with my VMFAT-101 pack. Since there are already some line and newer CAG skins in game, mine are just a few unusual liveries they've flown throughout the years.

Will wait patiently.

I'm nearing completion of the 3 Wing Bagotville 2009 demo livery for the celebration of a century of powered flight in Canada on airframe 188719.

 

Have to finish the pattern on the wings and then it will be complete.

So i just started dabbling in this skinning thing and I am trying to figure out how I can remove/edit the tail/flaps number that shows up as a "box" with the numbers in it? Here are a few Screen Shots From in game.Notice the "010". Thanks in advance for whoever can help me.. :helpsmilie::thumbup:

The bort numbers, along with all other parts of the livery are controlled by the description.lua file in the skin's folder. For example, here's a small part of that file from a skin I'm working on, which controls one of the numbers on the left side of the nose. Each of these blocks of code refers to a certain digit somewhere on the plane, to turn it off I have it reference a texture called "empty" and the "true" tells the game to look for this texture outside of the livery's folder.

 

{"F18C_BORT_NUMBER_NOSE_L_100", 0 ,"F18C_1_DIFF_VMFA-142",false};
{"F18C_BORT_NUMBER_NOSE_L_100", ROUGHNESS_METALLIC ,"F18C_1_DIF_RoughMet",true};
{"F18C_BORT_NUMBER_NOSE_L_100", DECAL ,"empty",true};

 

The easiest way to do it would be to find a skin you've downloaded that doesn't have any of these numbers on it, and copy the sections you need to use over to yours making any necessary edits to get it to work with your skin.
