Hello,

As I'm flying primarily desert maps I'm forced to download a user liveries for F-16C as it lack one. 

I download quite a few of skins for a desert environment and few of them are missing same textures for the fuel tanks.

nullI was looking for some tutorials to fix it myself but more I'm looking into this matter the dipper the rabbit whole gets and I give-up.

Also noticed that other liveries are mentioning that 'fixed tanks' so I guess is a thing must be...fix.

So any guidance how to do it myself will be much appreciated!

Hi, most likely the script texture line has changed in the default script. Same happened with some other aircraft (S3-B, A400M, B-52, B1-B) where the texture lines were written differently, where the tank line was written in a new way. I remember someone changing/copying the lines from older liveries, and then they worked again.

If you have camo texture there are 2 possibilities. 

1. The 370 gal tank textures are not in the plane's livery folder but the description.lua code is correct. 

2. The lines for the 370 gal tank textures in the description.lua are incorrect and the tank textures are in the plane's livery folder.

#2 is more likely because a few years ago ED changed the 370 gal tank texture file names. These are the default lines in the description.lua for the 370 gal tanks. If you want to use ED's default textures change "false" to "true" and if the livery has custom tank textures leave it false. 

-- F16_bl50_Fuel_Tank_370Gal
    {"F_16_Tank_370", 0,                            "Fuel_Tank_370Gal_diff",            false};
    {"F_16_Tank_370", 1,                            "Fuel_Tank_370Gal_NM",                    false};
    {"F_16_Tank_370", ROUGHNESS_METALLIC,            "Fuel_Tank_370Gal_diff_RoughMet",        false};
