Skin question

[Stingray72]

Hi all!!

 

I downloaded a sweet navy skin, but lol it's for an F-4D. How can I make different skins available for different a/c models, in this example for the B or J Navy version.

Hello. It won't work if the two airplanes have not the exact same 3D model, which is nearly never the case.

 

Each skin is only usable with its aircraft.

 

You can still try by copy/paste the skin folder of the D in the B or J.

 

Go to objects/aircraft/F-4D folder, copy the folder with skin's name, then go to F4J and paste it into it.

 

But i doubt that will work

That will not work.

You also have to rename the F-4D-bitmaps to f.e. F-4J-Bitmap.

Yeah, it's kind of a hassle eh? On IL2 yu can put skins where ever you want lol. If I do rename the bitmap files, will the skin work in the J or B model, or do I need to recruit someone to take this skin and work it onto a B or J file?

 

Thanks for you answers guys, I love communal help!
