ED Team DGambo Posted May 27, 2020 ED Team Posted May 27, 2020 And paste the code eight proposed AFTER the livery {} not inside the livery {} because that breaks the code and the livery does not show up in game or the model viewer I don't think you can have a 4th digit Hey. on the side numbers 1. There are three-digit numbers on the plane. some have an extra 4 bit, but it is not animated and is used as a decal. 2. Registration of board numbers is as before. the material with the tail number must register your main texture in channel 0, the roughness texture if it differs from the default in channel 2 and your texture number in the DECAL channel. 3. animation arguments are needed to hide unnecessary numbers or switch between types. we used to write an empty texture for numbers that are not needed on the skin, now this is not necessary, although this still works. 4. and wish. For a single-color texture of the side number of the aircraft, you need to make the main background fill with the color of the number digits. this is necessary for the correct switching of mip maps when the model is removed from the camera.

ED Team DGambo Posted May 27, 2020 ED Team Posted May 27, 2020 Hey, I'm thinking about using the new board numbers. Can one of you tell me if these numbers can go from three to four digits? we have an animation of only three digits of the number. therefore, all numbers are three-digit. if there is a need for the fourth category, then it can be drawn in the skin.

Zer07 Posted May 27, 2020 Posted May 27, 2020 Pity. A fourth digit would have been interesting for this kind of skins. It would have saved a lot of work. My Liveries
Funkysak Posted May 27, 2020 Posted May 27, 2020 Okay! That worked. Odd because I've attempted this before as it is shown in post 76. Thank you! I 'm not sure why it wouldn't work for me before, but the game did just patch. "Now how do I land this thing?" *Sound of pages turning*

Akatsuki Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) I think it’s settled now. I saw a post -don’t remember where- that said nothing was planned on that matter anymore. Found it, it’s post #77 on this topic: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4342127&postcount=77 Edited May 28, 2020 by Akatsuki
ED Team DGambo Posted May 28, 2020 ED Team Posted May 28, 2020 there will no longer be such changes that greatly affect the skins. If numbers are added, then by default they will be turned off and to activate them, you will need to register a couple of lines in the file " Умное выражение лица - это еще не признак ума.

Texac Posted August 26, 2020 Posted August 26, 2020 I'm trying to implement white and black bort numbers for my skin. Now I want to color the refuel door numbers in white and the nose numbers in black. The problem being that both number placements use the same texture or description line to call up the texture. So that it is not possible to have both numbers in a different color, except for the first digit of the nose numbers. The line for that would be: F16_bl50_MAT1_BORT_NUMBER_X100 to color the first digit in black, the remaining 3 stay white. Am I missing something or is it not possible to color the whole 4 digit number on the nose in a different color than the refuel door numbers? It surprises me since on actual F-16's with the two gray tone paint scheme the top numbers aren't the same color as on the nose. - My Skins/Liveries - Improved F-16C Texture Template • Texac on YouTube •
Santus Posted August 26, 2020 Posted August 26, 2020 Hey there Texac. Love your ROAF skins mate. As far as I can understand. Currently there is no option to paint those two numbers differently since as you say, they use the same code to load the texture. - Livery Catalog - Youtube channel
Texac Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 Love your ROAF skins mate. I think you mixed something up there. So there is no way to color these numbers differently. Perhaps it is planned to change that and give the front numbers a separate texture or their own line of code? Or tell me the reason to have the first digit colored, the rest 3 not. - My Skins/Liveries - Improved F-16C Texture Template • Texac on YouTube •
leonsilver Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 over time, we will improve the template and fix the errors. if there is a problem with masks then convert them to simple objects. we just did not have time to do this. This should eliminate errors. Textures were drawn in another program and exported to psd, so errors are possible. we’ll fix it over time Okay. When?

lee1hy Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Does anyone know how to create a custom number with a transparent background? bort tga new patch seems to have changed the way kim_123456#3214 My awesome liveries user files https://shorturl.at/cdKV5
Ticker Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 Okay. When? Pic_1 - Before saving https://ibb.co/mvDmJ8C Pic_2 - After saving (dds file) https://ibb.co/Lz9shpc I had the same issue. The problem is that the main_2-template uses a custom RGB color profile. Convert it to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 profile and it will work better.
312_strycekFido Posted March 10, 2021 Posted March 10, 2021 About issues with F16_bl50_Main_2. That psd file uses some custom color profile, all other files use sRGB IEC61966-2.1. Basically you see wrong color (more washed out), than what is actually there. You can see it here. Those are the same colors, they have same HEX/RGB codes. They're just displayed differently in photoshop, because of that different color profile. When you export it into dds, it will actually look like it's supposed to, ie. bright red will look like bright red and won't be washed out - that are those "main_2 dds is darker" issues. Anyway, anybody knows how to convert that file to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 without PS trying to keep same appearance and ruining the template in the process (making everything washed out)? Or maybe ED can export that file again, with proper color profile? Please and thank you.
PunchOut Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 so it seems that ED removed two of the BORT arguments from the F-16...as well as some of the 'options' for the tail bort location Rig: intel i9-9900kf @ 1.21 gigawatts of electricity | Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro | EVGA 1080 Ti SC2 Gaming

_SteelFalcon_ Posted July 31, 2021 Posted July 31, 2021 Is there a helmet template that allows to customize pilot helmets? Repainting the pilot helmet dds seems to mirror to the other side, resulting in mirrored text on the left side of the helmet. Any help would be appreciated

Hawkeye4040 Posted October 25, 2021 Posted October 25, 2021 Am I the only person who thinks this is way too overcomplicated and poorly documented? This is the closest thing I could find to what I was looking for. I would very much like to find a guide or reference of any kind that actually satisfactory explained the arguments, valid values etc. with these "Bort" numbers. Ideally something a little more descriptive than this. It would be great if someone knew how to customize further than the options available. Lets say I wanted to add a field to show the pilots name next to the canopy for instance and this would be a simple field that can be filled out in the editor so names can be changed without having to generate a new texture. Regardless of if you have a template that can still be a lot of work. I see some of the things I want to do with skin customization being done here on this thread too but not very much in the way of explanation. Perhaps there's a YouTube tutorial on this I'm just not finding?
S3ntry Posted November 28, 2021 Posted November 28, 2021 Hey everyone, I am rather new to making skins and am running into a problem with the Viper templates. Editing done: change the basecolour and add some text/emblem/flag. Now if I use my skin all the outlines of coat of arms, stencils & Co. show up. But in Photoshop I can't see any of the artifacts, only in model viewer and the game itself. Is this a .lua Problem? Thanks and stay healthy

You are correct, main 2 template has different color profile making it near impossible to match it to other parts seamlessly. My photoshop managed the conversion OK i think, no washing away like in your pic. Heres the file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1d7SrV3-a6ejZabQcDXvJniU-szUuKFIe/view?usp=sharing Anyone know if it is possible to reskin the HTS pod? Template anyone?
