Liveries question

[HR-Crumble]

Hi guys,

 

I’m looking for some pointers on skin modding. Now just to precede I have Photoshop and the nvidia dds plugin and I have modded existing skins before.

 

What I’m looking to do is to create custom Mig-15 skins based on the ones that come with the module - mai my one with a red nose.

 

 

Now my question is so I still need the texture template form ED website?

I’m asking because when I open the existing red nose template into photoshop I can’t see all the individual layers to remove the soviet stars to replace with my own logo.

 

When I load the texture template I can see those layers.

 

 

So which do I actually edit? The in game skin (red nose) or the texture template from Ed? If it’s the texture template from Ed then how do I make it the red nose skin?

 

 

Thanks - a confused Matt.

Use the texture template and paint your red nose in the texture template ?

 

You can import the game texture in a new layer, as a reference to help you.

 

 

 

Also, you'd better use the Intel plugin and save in bc7 rather than the Nvidia plugin with the DXT 1/3/5.
