missile's and bomb's custom skin

[Sierr4]

Hello everyone !

I need your help to try something, i would like modify the skin of missiles and bombs when i choose one livery.
I know change the skin in general but i would like apply this just for one livery.

My code in "description.lua" : 

 

    {"f18c1", 0 ,"F18C_1_VFA-12",false};
    {"f18c1", ROUGHNESS_METALLIC ,"F18C_1_RoughMet_VFA-12",false};
 

    {"f18c2", 0 ,"F18C_2_VFA-12",false};
    {"f18c2", ROUGHNESS_METALLIC ,"F18C_2_RoughMet_VFA-12",false};
    
    {"XXX", 0 ,"AIM_120C_diff",false};
    {"XXX", 2 ,"AIM_120C_diff_RoughMet",true};
 

    {"FPU_8A", 0 ,"FPU_8A_VFA-12",false};
    {"FPU_8A", 2 ,"FPU_8A_Diff_RoughMet_VFA-12",true};

For the FPU it work but for AIM120C i try many name and isn't work.

Thank's

Load the weapon into model viewer from bazar/world/shapes then generate a description.lua for it. You will have all the lines you need for the weapon. Then copy and paste the lines for the weapons you want to apply your own skins to in your livery's description.lua.

Yes it does that. Once it comes off the rail it reverts to the default skin.

is there a guide somewhare that shows me how to customize my bombs for an A10?

D:\DCS World OpenBeta\Bazar\World\Shapes  just has .edm files and json files. Do I edit the edm?

3 years late (LOL) but here I am.

If you want your bomb/missile liveries to stay looking like the one in your livery you gotta substitute the livery files of the bombs in the Bazar/World/liveries folder, don’t forget to make a backup just in case.
