investigating Model now showing strange artefact.

[BlackBaron46]

 I've just noticed that since the update in June, all liveries now suddenly have this very pronounced strip along the top of their fuselage.

And it's not just my own that it's happening too. The base liveries also have the same artefact.

I've gone over my files again and again and it's not on any of the templates so I'm sure it's not a texture issue, but rather with the model itself.

See example below:

Dunno why its gone but ive mentioned that it looks like the 3d models smoothing groups got whacked.
those lines might actually correspond with the uvw isles.

@DoughguyIt's not gone, OP duplicated this thread and your reply is still there allright in the other one :).

Oh. Well then...

I started seeing it after the June update as well:

Glad I haven't lost my mind then!

Bumping this as the D30 (early) still seems to have this issue.

[Nealius]

D30 appears to be partially fixed. At at certain LOD the artifact appears again, particularly on the port side. Note artifacting on the far Jug (HV-F) but not on the near Jug (HV-R):

 

[Art-J]

Partially fixed, or partially broken?  I'm asking 'cause I've never noticed this problem on fin variants, it's been only the "Early" one where it sticks out pretty bad.

So either the fin ones got broken recently, or I just wasn't paying enough attention (quite possible).

I first noticed it on the -40 and at that time it was egregious.
