BlueAngel Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 There's something wrong with the PSDs of the F-16 paintkit. Not only the dirt effect is too heady (I know I can increase transparency to minimize it) but at least one template, I believe Fuse 2 always gets too dark when exporting the DDS texture. I've tried different DXT options, no matter what I do, it's always darker than all other textures. I've downloaded the paintkit yesterday, so I supposed this was fixed from the early version. Perhaps someone knows a workaround? "The natural function of the wing is to soar upwards and carry that which is heavy up to the place where dwells the race of gods.

GeorgeLKMT Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 I'm not painting the F-16 but I downloaded the paintkit to have a look. I don't know what Fuse 2 is but I assume you're referring to the F16_bl50_Main_2_Template? The file has a color profile for some reason. When opening in photoshop, convert the profile to your working space (sRGB) and it'll look like the rest. It gets dark because DDS format does not support profiles. ■ L-39C/ZA Czech cockpit mod ■ My DCS skins ■ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helles Belle Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) Same, fuse 2 is broken. DDS comes out darker, I eventually made a new psd and pulled all the relevant layers into that. Thanks George, I’m going to try that one tomorrow. Edited May 9, 2020 by Helles Belle Send lawyers, guns and money......... for the …. has hit the fan.

THUG024 Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 To kind of piggy back off the OP. I noticed there’s no fuel tank files. I was hoping for some guidance on where or how to adjust and probably need a heads up on the changes in the lua description? Any help is appreciated!

Agg Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 The first template that was released used a custom RGB profile and that's why the colors turned out different from what you wanted. The second template fixed this for all files except one. There's a fix for it here - https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=268090 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
