SF2 decal question

[+pcpilot 181]

I have the MF F-14A installed and working pretty darn good in my SF2 install in WinXP. The only problem is that, of the 4 skins for the tomcat, only one, VF1, has decals showing. So I took the "D" folder from all three skins not showing decals and put them in the decals folder in C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2\Objects\Decals. Still dont work. Any suggestions? This might be one to add to the KB.

Check out how some of the aircraft released for SF2 have it.

I think you have to copy them under:

 

..MOD_Directory\Objects\Decals\Aircraft name\

 

folder, for the F-35A, the tga files are inside

..MOD_Directory\Objects\Decals\F-35A\

Yup, thats put me on the right track. It also needs the name of the skin folder too though. Such as ...C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2\Objects\Decals\F-14A\VF142\D. Then I got it to work. Thanks fellas.
