tank03 Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Hey guys lost my note how do you change the skins so all the planes are the same skin when you start missions?? If you added the skin correctly, you should be able to select it from the drop down menu for each a/c in the Loadout screen. If you want the skin to be the default skin, I think you need to set it as the #1 texture in the file. Quote

maverickHR Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Loadout->paint scheme ->select number of the plane and whe you select plane you want to change paint scheme, select paint scheme. Quote
tank03 Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Can you tell me what file and the step next so all have the same please. Many Thanks!! I'm assuming you are refering to an add-on skin. Each skin should come with a README that outlines how it is installed. Basically you put the skin folder into the A/C folder. You then edit the aircraft ini (NOT the data ini) and add the new skin to the list of existing texture sets. If you want the new skin to be the default skin that the game chooses, then that skin should be texture set 1. Once the skin is successfully added (and if you didn't make it the default skin) it cna be chosen in the Loadout menu from the list of possible paint schemes. In the Loadout menu, each aircraft can be individually tailored for paint, weapon load etc. Quote

+FastCargo Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 You then edit the aircraft ini (NOT the data ini) and add the new skin to the list of existing texture sets. A quick note to folks. If the new addon skin has a Textureset.ini file in it's directory, then you do not even have to edit the aircraft ini at all. The game engine will AUTOMATICALLY insert the Textureset.ini details the next time you run the sim. If you want the new skin to be the default skin that the game chooses, then that skin should be texture set 1. This part still applies though. FastCargo Quote

topcat II Posted December 18, 2007 Author Posted December 18, 2007 Well Fastcargo I have the skin in the folder and then selected it in the loadout and also in the squadron listing I selected VMFA531 and when started the mission the squadron came out VF-84. Mine was ok which is VMFA531? Quote
+allenjb42 Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 You have to change each member of your flight or squadron individually. Quote
topcat II Posted December 18, 2007 Author Posted December 18, 2007 Thank You Allen I will do that. Quote
