OLD CROW Posted August 29, 2023 Posted August 29, 2023 You're doing nothing wrong. B-17 textures are old so they have to be upgraded by ED with the roughmetal files, as most of the models are now. A simple Human being's Passion [YOUTUBE] [/YOUTUBE]
Boosterdog Posted August 29, 2023 Posted August 29, 2023 If you look in the detail section of the download you'll likey see comments and/or links to mods that the makers intended the skins to be used with. Some have gone for roughmet mods, some have gone for Warlord64s JSON mod. The JSON mos is the least faff and many of the skins recently uploaded for the B17 competition have been produced to work with it.

Here is a link to a Mod I made that addresses this issue
