Steve Gee Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 With the debut of the F-16 and the C-17's flying around in the Instant Missions of it, I was wanting to tidy of the Globemaster skin a bit, but not sure what name to save the .dds file. How do I find out the default file name for an AI plane?

Strut Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Steve these are from the C-17a EDM file they should help {"texture LONGER-DAMAG.bmp f2 g0", 0, "LONGER-DAMAG", false}; {"texture C17-OKRAS.bmp f2 g0", 0, "C17-OKRAS", false}; {"texture c130-fon+flag.bmp f2 g0", 0, "c130-fon+flag", false}; {"texture SOPLA-F.bmp f2 g0", 0, "SOPLA-F", false}; {"texture nomera.tga f2 g0", 0, "nomera", false}; {"texture USAF.tga f2 g0", 0, "USAF", false}; {"texture C17-OKRAS.bmp f2050 g0", 0, "C17-OKRAS", false}; {"texture BANO.tga f0 g0", 0, "BANO", false}; {"texture BANO.tga f0 g0", 0, "BANO", false}; {"texture SOPLA-F.bmp f0 g0", 0, "SOPLA-F", false}; {"texture DAMAGE_All.tga f2 g0", 0, "DAMAGE_All", false}; {"texture HOLES_All.tga f2 g0", 0, "HOLES_All", false}; Regards DL available skins here: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/?CREATED_BY=Strut Pictures of my Skins here: https://imgur.com/a/bOQyQqW [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Win10 64bit, Intel® Core i7-5820K CPU OC @ 4.50GHz x6, X99A GAMING PRO CARBON, MSI RTX 2080 TI GAMING X TRIO 11Gb, 32GB DDR4 RAM, SSD 960 EVO250GB, SSD 850 EVO 500GB, JetSeat, MFG Crosswind Pedals, VPC Mongoose T-50, TMWH, DSD ButtonBox, Pimax 5k XR/BE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I believe looking at the extracted EDM info I posted above, I would say that the file you are looking for is in fact a .tga file , its name is "USAF" from this line above : {"texture USAF.tga f2 g0", 0, "USAF", false}; I might be wrong, but this is a very old model and somebody may correct me.

Steve Gee Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 Many thanks, I can open all of those and see what I need, now that I know where to look. :) Edit - Do you know the location where these files are as well? No idea where DCS keeps the AI files at.

Strut Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 (edited) Many thanks, I can open all of those and see what I need, now that I know where to look. :) Edit - Do you know the location where these files are as well? No idea where DCS keeps the AI files at. No probs Steve, good luck, that skin really does need an overhaul, which I suspect ED has on their long list of many things to do. As to where they are located you will probably find them in one of the many zip files that are at Bazar /Textures. Hope that helps.

Steve Gee Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 Again, many thanks. :) After seeing that C-17 in the F-16 release more and more, it's become the new S-3, really in need of an update. I just want to make something a bit easier to look at for the default one.
