rename your file to f15_afterburn.dds and drop in the TempTextures folder

when i get home in a few hours, if you havent solved it, I'll get the material name for you.

 

edit: Material name is f15_afterburn

{"f15_afterburn", 0, "your dds filename", false}

Yep, exactly what I said.

 

rename your file to f15_afterburn.dds and drop in the TempTextures folder

 

To use in zip or TempTextures folder you must set false to true then. Otherwise leave false and drop it in the livery folder with the description.lua

Hi,

 

My probleme on the file concern is when I put the BMP and TGA folder temptextures.

 

But rather against the file. Dds that go into the folder liveries/F15c ... but despite having to modify the Lua it does not work.

 

Thank you.

To use in zip or TempTextures folder you must set false to true then. Otherwise leave false and drop it in the livery folder with the description.lua

 

if you use your f15_afterburn.dds from TempTextures folder then you do not have to type anything anywhere (false or true in description.lua not necessary)

DCS will use automatically files from TempTextures, this is the primary load-use folder

 

you need to use Liveries folder only if you want to use different afterburner textures for (each) different F-15 skin (which is unwise)

 

true will load zip file which is needed to assign in graphics.cfg

false will load dds file which is needed to put in Liveries/aircraft/squadron-skin folder

 

use xyz.TGA files, when you done rename to xyz.DDS and drop in TempTextures folder
