New S3 Viking tanker skins

[markturner1960]

So previous to the update, I had some era and cruise relevant skins I was using on the Viking, which worked fine. These: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3334480/

However now, i noticed the skins are not applied and in mission editor, I am not able to select any skins for the jet. It just shows the default, whatever you choose....

Can anyone help? BTW, where is the folder for this aircraft in the game folders? I could not see it anywhere under S-3B.......

Merry Christmas as well!

You will find it at, Heavy Metal Core, Aircraft

[markturner1960]

cheers, I found heavy metal core, but there is no aircraft folder in there.....

Interestingly there is an S-3B.zip folder in "Textures" and an S-3B lua file in Heavymetalcore/Database/Aircraft

Is this as it should be? Freshly updated and clean install BTW - the skins are all in  my saved games. And do show up in the drop down in ME

[Scoop]

Yes, sorry missed out the database bit

OK, found a lua file in there, but none the wiser about the skins showing or if my install is good or not.....

S-3 was updated to a new higher rez model so old ones liveries aren't going to work unless they are updated.

Cheers, I thought that as well, but pretty sure that before the update, I had these skins installed and working - certainly showing on the model in the mission editor, which they dont now.....

Actually, my query is answered here....I was not going mad, they did work before the update, and the update borked them
