jocko417 Posted October 16, 2021 Author Share Posted October 16, 2021 First post updated to try and clarify things. Sometimes I amaze myself with my own idiocy. That updated Common Textures file has now been renamed the "SHARED" file... since, you know, there's already a Common Textures file as part of the mod download... gee, that wouldn't be confusing, would it? Installation instructions updated to be simpler, I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrizzlyJet Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 @jocko417, these are awesome looking skins - and I never had any idea that the Starfighter enjoyed such a smorgasbord of different liveries. I wonder if your approach would happen to have a series of layered Photoshop PSD files that would enable others to paint other variations - especially those of us that have a particular unit or aircraft in mind. You're only one dude, dude! In the X-Plane world (and perhaps DCS!) this would be a "paint kit" of sorts. Any possibility? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saguanay Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) Naw, I was asking about "Lukewaffe". I take it after all of this that it was an intentional spelling mitstake. Edited October 20, 2021 by Saguanay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jocko417 Posted October 22, 2021 Author Share Posted October 22, 2021 Paint kit uploaded to ED, awaiting approval! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrizzlyJet Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 33 minutes ago, jocko417 said: Paint kit uploaded to ED, awaiting approval! Cool. Do we have to have our user skins approved by ED before we can post them? After a bunch of research for an F-104 kit build, I've discovered that there is an exception to the shorter vertical stabilizer on F-104C's, where the fin/rudder is about 20-25% shorter longitudinally than on the F-104G, as modeled by VSN. (The 104C fin/rudder doesn't stick out over the exhaust quite as far as the G). The exception was 56-0885, the aircraft used to recapture the speed, time to climb and absolute altitude record when held by the F-104. It had the tail section of an F-104B grafted on instead of the normal "C model" tail. Not to count rivets or anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
