I bet, those skins are for another model, not for capun´s one.

I’ve tried the other models of F-5E/N and still couldn’t it also doesn’t come with texture sets and decals

see this line right here, in particular the 2 letters "MF"

Small collection of new skins for the MF F-5E/N Tigger II.

That stands for "Mirage Factory". So, by inference, that means these skins are ONLY for the The Mirage Factory's F-5E.

It don't come with texture set inis because the original uploader was lazy and thoughtless

As to decals, I'll be real money they use all stock 3W item. A quick look at the decals ini would confirm this, simply by the "phrasing" of the pathways

So i should get the F-5E from the strike fighters 1 downloads section

thanks wrench i used the F-5E mirage factory but still nothing shows up im guessing because it doesnt have the decals folder the skins only have the bmp files nothing related to any texture sets or decals folders

Or maybe the original uploader has a job and helps however he can.

Not a good way to motivate others to share their work.

sorry, but a leaving out a texture set ini is about the same as uploading 3 textures when you need 4 for the aircraft. actually its worse than say leaving teh texture for the right wing off (and letting it show up black in game)

a skin literally wont work without one, and ini's arent IP protected. you dont "not upload because it was the same as someone else's" (they all will be the same format)

many of us fix and rerelease for minor things like numbers missing from one skin thats part of a twenty pack (often because of recycling decal inis and forgetting to change a pathway entry). something that kills the whole skin should be fixed as soon as its realized, and could have been caught before then

Agreed I’m not good at skinning or any of that but was wondering if there will be a fix or something

There's NO excuse at ALL for not uploading a complete mod. You mean to tell me you couldn't take 5 minutes to write those texture set  and decal inis?? Oh yes, indeed. we need more like that, like I need another kidney stone.

Don't EVER forget who you talking to, buddy boy. Before I retired, I worked nearly 70 hours a week; and I STILL managed to put out skins, decals, and COMPLETE terrain mods.

I'm done here... will not cast more pearls
