T-B0NE Posted July 23, 2022 Posted July 23, 2022 (edited) I know its probably not a priority but and I say this with all understanding and kindness I will also mention I personally have no idea how to make skins for DCS and have never tried I also assume its very complex but as someone with OCD HAHAHA and a South African I must say the SAAF skin is almost completely wrong hahaha it has the old flag on the tail (period correct orange white and blue) yet the pilot has the new south African flag patch from 1994 which is odd considering the F1CZ was retired in 1992 it also has the wrong roundels for the paint scheme being the eagle (introduced as the standard roundel in 1994) instead of the springbok (period correct for pre 1992 ) It's also in the wrong location. The paint scheme is ever so slightly off from what I can tell. Its also ever so much a'few shades out of color I honestly cannot not judge though so please take this as constructive criticism not me being offensive. I've attached some photos to give a visual idea of what I'm talking about. And ill say again I've never even tried making a skin for a module and I truly do love this module I've been following your development for years eagerly waiting it just makes it hard for me as a mission maker to go and ask people to go and find and download skins etc. If you guys could find the time to even consider fixing this I bet a whole lot of us South Africans would be truly thankful Kind regards T-Bone Edited October 20, 2022 by Vibora error fix 3 1

T-B0NE Posted July 23, 2022 Author Posted July 23, 2022 Hey AdrianL I did have a look at them but besides the color fix and roundels era corrected they are unfortunately still incorrect in location and the danger ejection seat warning should be just under the cockpit its also is where the roundel should be. Also the 3 Squadron emblem is still to big needing to come up and to the left a'bit more and the SA flag on the pilots shoulder is era incorrect otherwise it is really good work

ARM505 Posted July 24, 2022 Posted July 24, 2022 I must say, I was just glad to see the SAAF skin - but I confess, I did miss the bokkie in the national insignia! Glad to see you okes are working on this, great stuff. I might be biased, but the SAAF scheme is just such a great painscheme. 1
