I want to add to the early F-101B the tail number 58-0300, but this appears to be a file that is not accessible. This number was for the only EF-101B, which was some sort of electronic warfare/radar target aircraft. It was one of the last, if not "the" last USAF Voodoo flying. The load screen for the early_F-101B shows this particular aircraft with a variation of the ADWC markings. I was able to transfer the ADWC markings from the F-101B to the early model with no problem, its just that none of the versions have this tail number. Is there a way to add to the .lod files and add this tail number. I know this is a pretty specific and or loaded question. If it isn't easily done, not a problem. I am obsessed with the 101. All of the work on it has been such a great contribution to the game. Any information would be appreciated.

You don't need to add it to the .lod file!

"Just" go into the skin folder, edit the "numbers.lst" (add the "58-0300" at the end), find out which decal represents the tail number (look at the tgas in the subfolder "D") and create a new one (there is a "how to make a decal" tutorial by Wrench somewhere in this board). Name it after the existing tail numbers, just with the sequentially next numbert (for example: the last tail number is tnum012.tga, so your's will be tnum013.tga). That should work...

Thanks for the advice! I couldn't find the decal tutorial that was mentioned. I am a computer retard, and have a rough time navigating this site. A nudge in the right direction might help.
