User files skin still shows fiscal year plate. Remove how?

[Red Ripper]

Hi,

I installed a nice UAE skin for the viper. However, through the hardcoded tailnumber the original fiscal year plate still shows on top of that. On the skin preview screenshots that does not show up.

Is there any way to remove that? Is there something in the description.lua I can edit?

Many thanks for your thoughts.

Hi Tholozor,

Actually this one, but happens to other skins sometimes too. The fiscal year plate still shows on top of the tailcode, while in the screenshots it is ‘clean’. There is probably a way to switch it of?

Your skins link ‘UAE 5-pack’ I have tried as well, but after extracting it gives me 5 empty folders and a bunch of .dds files on the side. No clue what to do with that.

Sounds like your download got corrupted, but anyway: The livery you linked is older, and missing some arguments that control how the numbers are displayed (probably made before it was set up that way).

Add this to the description to turn off all dynamic numbers:

custom_args = {
	[1000] = 1.0,
	[1001] = 1.0,
	[1002] = 1.0,
	[1003] = 1.0,
}

Sounds logical to me. Thanks!,

I will try and let you know.

Hi Tholozor,

Thanks for your help. It worked!

(Also the UAE skinpack extract worked fine using winrar this time)
