Snoopy Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 So I figured I'd try my hand at a custom skin today. This is the skin I did for the 76th FS down at Moody (the 476th Maintenance Squadron is the unit I'm in and this is one of our jets) Real world: My skin, first ever: 2 v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website

159th_Viper Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 My skin, first ever: Is it just me or does your aspect ratio seem off (stretched pic)?

joey45 Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 What file did you change? The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

SmokeyTheLung Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 The def files are in; C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS A-10C Beta\Bazar\World\textures\A-10 nice job paulrkiii. I'm trying to do the same myself. Can I ask, what programs are you using to convert the DDS files (what format are you converting them into?) and what programs are you editing the image with? Thanks in advance System specifications: Computer, joystick, DCS world, Beer
Snoopy Posted January 17, 2011 Author Posted January 17, 2011 I used Contenta Converter Premium to convert the files then photoshop to mod them. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website

Steel Jaw Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 The Dragins on the nacelles are sweet. IMHO the flag line should be on the canopy rail.

HiJack Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Nice job! What about some crome on the cannon?
hog_driver111th Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Awesome skins Paulrkiii. I wasn't stationed at Warner, but I've been there a few times. I'm not trying to steal your thread, but since this is a "first skin" thingy, I thought I'd add mine. It's a fictional for a virtual squadron... and no, for you kiddies out there, the BJ isn't what you think. It stands for "BlackJacks", hence the spade on the tail. All of the main stuff is changed (ie: tail number/top/base code, fuselage patches, name under cockpit, added TankBusters to the Nacelles).
