EricJ Posted May 28, 2007 Author Posted May 28, 2007 I got a modded nomera.tga file... but I may have to rename it as -8 since that's the texture number. If you can that's cool, if not, then I'll redo it with the correct number. As for Lockonfiles? No, since it's a custom skin, I tend not to do that sort of thing with them.

SuperKungFu Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 could you send me the nomera file? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

SuperKungFu Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 cheers thanks man. Your skin made its way to my Sig. haha. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
PythonOne Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 I also want to extend my thanks to EricJ. Awesome work. Btw, now that SKF mentions it, is it possible to have a nomera file but one particular number doesn't work. For example the #9, if we type that in, the number doesn't show up on the plane, but all the rest of the number will work. That way, we can keep the numbers for the rest of the regular aircraft, and put on the blank number when we fly with this skin. Is it possible to create this?
Stratos Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 All I can say is SUPERB WORK!!! I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!

That way, we can keep the numbers for the rest of the regular aircraft, and put on the blank number when we fly with this skin. Is it possible to create this? The way I understand the numbering system with LOMAC, is that there are two "slots" for the same file. So going along with your "9" example, all there would be is like... 1-8, 10, 11-18, 20, 21-28, etc. Or, you'll never see 9 again per your idea. If that doesn't bother you... well yeah it can be done. However, I accidentally deleted my "virgin" nomera.tga file last night, so if anybody has one....?

hitman Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 Post email addy and Ill send you mine right quick....if it doesnt need to be extracted via .cdds browser. 1
PythonOne Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 Yea you got the right idea EricJ, i don't mind seeing 9 ever again but i would like to see the other numbers on the other planes. Here is the nomera file i use due to its looks, if you can make 9 "transparent" i would really appreciate it.nomera.zip
Storm.i Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 Great job on the skin, really nice. The editing nomera file is a nice idea aswell... Will it work for all planes or just this one?
EricJ Posted May 28, 2007 Author Posted May 28, 2007 All, unless you use a hex editor for specifically each type.nomeraminus9.zip 1 Homepage | Discord | Linktree | YouTube 'Nearly everyone felt the need to express their views on all wars to me, starting with mine.

maks Posted June 1, 2007 Posted June 1, 2007 ref nomera file dear , how do i install this nomera file (i want to get rid of the numbering on this russian knights early scheme only !) i tried modman , but numbers still on top of the beautiful russian air force flag on the tails !!! 8-) very frustrating !!!! :helpsmilie: thanks for info - brgds - maks :smilewink:
Paralyzer Posted June 1, 2007 Posted June 1, 2007 Absolutely beautiful :thumbup: Very nice work, everyone, give this man some rep. Do you plan to upload it to lockonfiles? P.S.: is there a mod you use that gets rid of the aircraft number so it won't cover up the russian knights symbol? I'm not using any custom skins at the moment but I'm giving EricJ some rep for taking some time to help you. Outstanding skin! :thumbup: [URL="http://www.s77th.com"][/URL]

SuperKungFu Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 sorry, just wanted to bump this back up. On the subject of the nomera file, I want the number 9 to be invisable to the other skins as well. I noticed the one EricJ made works nicely for the Russian Knights skin he created, but as for other skins, it uses the Red numbers instead of the blue one. So it can't be erased by typing in 9, is it possible for someone to give me another file that affects the red number system and make the number 9 invisible. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

SuperKungFu Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 thanks but I've tried a lot of nomera files and the one I'm currently using, which you can find above under the attachments from EricJ, looks the best on my screen. So I'm just going to stick with that, i just want to make the #9 for all colors, blue, white, and red numbers to be transparent. That way, when I load up a skin that already have markings on it, the number won't block it. I chose the #9 since i use that the less frequent. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

That way, when I load up a skin that already have markings on it, the number won't block it. I chose the #9 since i use that the less frequent. Yeah I thought you could just edit =FV=MAD's mod, removing the number 9 from all the nomera files he has put up for download. As long as you don't put them up for download I don't think he'd mind you making a minor adjustment for your own personal use :smilewink: . Cozmo.

SuperKungFu Posted June 17, 2007 Posted June 17, 2007 yea the problem is i don't know how to make it transparent. If i just black it out, then the numbers will have a black square over it. I dunno how ericJ did it, if i view it in photoshop, it doesn't show any changes to the original nomera file. But in game, it will be invisable when i set the flight number as 9. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
EricJ Posted June 17, 2007 Author Posted June 17, 2007 You editing the Alpha Channel layer right? Or are you just editing the texture portion?

SuperKungFu Posted June 17, 2007 Posted June 17, 2007 editing the texture portion (which is stupid yea i know lol). But I'm not really good in photoshop so i don't even know what is the alpha channel. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
EricJ Posted June 17, 2007 Author Posted June 17, 2007 Okay, no probs. Just open the Layers window, you'll see a tab called "channels". You'll see "Alpha" and it'll show the transparent areas as white. Select the Alpha layer, find the 9, and use a black colored brush to "erase" it out (White is the "active" portion of the alpha layer). Back it up first of course then save. Go in the sim and it should work. 1 Homepage | Discord | Linktree | YouTube 'Nearly everyone felt the need to express their views on all wars to me, starting with mine.

SuperKungFu Posted June 17, 2007 Posted June 17, 2007 cheers thanks, i'll try that out. Edit: hmm, well i did edit the alpha channel like you said, but its still visable in game when i type in 9. Is the nomera file the only one that contains the aircraft number for the russian aircraft? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
