+ghostrider883 Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 (edited) Russo, Sometimes, I 've had trouble getting the decals to show up if the FilenameFormat line was too long. For eg.. FilenameFormat=Mirage 2000D/1sqdn_tigers/d/wingsrl <== long line so I changed it to something shorter by re-naming: FilenameFormat=Mirage 2000D/1sq_iaf/d/wsl May be in your decals.ini the *censored* a/c name is making the line too long?

+russouk2004 Posted January 11, 2009 Author Posted January 11, 2009 The a\c name is only 5 letters m8y...so I dont think its that... I will try tho...good idea Quote

Spinners Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Is it because the fourth character is a full stop? Quote

+russouk2004 Posted January 11, 2009 Author Posted January 11, 2009 oh well looks like its the garbage bin Quote
+Sundowner Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 The only thing wrong that I can see is the your decal 1&2 entries are different scales.....maye the second one Scale=1.0, is covering the others, unlikley but worth looking at. Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 There are 3 planes in the pic lightning german stealth and the 3rd? Quote
+russouk2004 Posted January 11, 2009 Author Posted January 11, 2009 possibly...for 2 meshes that share same decal...I tried to see if the decal was too small to show...so tried various sizes to see wot happened.. Quote
+russouk2004 Posted January 11, 2009 Author Posted January 11, 2009 Thats a Hawker P.1211...that never was... this is the only decal I can get to show...MBB Quote
+whiteknight06604 Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 stupid question here but did you try to see if it may be a problem with the decales by trying them on another aircraft.or trying a stock decal on your new model.maybe a coordinate is messed up?thats all I can think of.Interesting project btw.
