GRUMPYBEAR 1 Posted February 3, 2007 I downloaded the Camel from Skunkworks and she flies great. Really enjoy the plane. My problem is it has no color/skin/texture. It's like its all silver or somthing. I see the texture files in the object/aircraft/camel folder. Do I need to edit anything? Any help? Thanks GB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's like its all silver or somthing. I see the texture files in the object/aircraft/camel folder. Do I need to edit anything? Any help? Thanks GB Here's how my Camel.ini file looks: [AircraftData] AircraftFullName=Sopwith Camel AircraftShortName=Sopwith Camel AircraftDataFile=Camel_data.ini CockpitDataFile=Camel_cockpit.ini HangarScreen=Camel_hangar.bmp LoadoutFile=Camel_loadout.ini [LOD001] Filename=Sopwith_Camel-R1.lod Distance=3280 [DamageTexture] DamagedPostFix=_holes.tga DestroyedPostFix=_Shredded.tga [shadow] CastShadow=FALSE ShadowLOD= ShadowType= ShadowCastDist=10000 MaxVisibleDistance=150 [TextureSet001] <--------------------------- Directory=Raf Name=3 Sqn RFC, Oct 1917 Nation=RAF Squadron= Specular=0.350000 Glossiness=0.250000 Reflection=0.100000 [TextureSet002] <-------------------------- Directory=AFC Name=4 Sqn AFC, 1918 Nation=AUSTRALIA Specular=0.350000 Glossiness=0.250000 Reflection=0.100000 [TextureSet003] <------------------------- Directory=RNAS Name=10 Sqn RNAS, 1917 Nation=RAF Specular=0.350000 Glossiness=0.250000 Reflection=0.100000 The sim will default to whichever skin is [TextureSet001] . All others designated 002, 003, etc will be excluded. The 001 will make that particular skin directory show itself on the aircraft. Hope that this is the right response to what you need <S> Craig Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+peter01 2 Posted February 3, 2007 (edited) I downloaded the Camel from Skunkworks and she flies great. Really enjoy the plane. My problem is it has no color/skin/texture. It's like its all silver or somthing. I see the texture files in the object/aircraft/camel folder. Do I need to edit anything? Any help? Thanks GB Hi GB, some things to try, I am sure one will work: I experiece this when the folder names of aircraft are too long, eg instead of "camel", its "copy of camel from ATeam". At a certain number of characters it does not read it properly, I think. Also if the plane ini file in that planes folder, eg for camel, camel.ini, is too long OR especially if the ini file name does not match the folder name EXACTLY. These are the usual culprits for many things in my experience, so go back to original download structure if you have changed anything. If you have not made changes, as it sounds, the other problem is the graphics setting: the camel bmps are very large files. A solution to some problems maybe this one (my pc crashed) according to developers is to change this flightengine.ini in the Flight folder (I can't remember if its there as default, if not you will need to extract from a cat file) and change (after backing up, of course) the GraphicsSettings section to: [GraphicsSettings] ZBufferDepth=24 MaxVertexCount=16384 MaxIndexCount=32768 MaxTextureCount=16384 MaxModelType=2048 MaxMeshPerScene=2048 MaxModelPerScene=4096 MaxLightPerScene=1024 AspectRatio=1.333333 MinPixelSize=1.0 If this is all too hard, probably resizing the camel bmp files from 2048*2048 to 512*512 may work. I reckon it will, but have not used this to fix problems as such, but its a good idea to do in any case - the camel files are very large, and will affect fps significantly if you have a few camels in the air at the same time.

Bandy 3 Posted February 6, 2007 Its not reading the texture map/folder you have in the AC folder. Have you mixed in some Camel F1 skins with the A-Team Camel folder??? They will not work together, as they are 2 different models and need skins made for that model... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
