Making a F-16 Blk15. Got the Sparrows to work no problem by editing the LOADOUT.INI and DATA.INI. So, I copied and pasted my F-16A_Netz file folder in my /Objects/Aircraft , changed the folder name to F-16A_15 , my F-16A_15.INI looks like this:

 

[AircraftData]
AircraftFullName=F-16A(Blk15) Falcon
AircraftShortName=F-16
AircraftDataFile=F-16A_15_data.ini
LoadoutFile=F-16A_15_loadout.ini
UserList=F-16A_15_UserList.ini
CockpitDataFile=F-16A_Netz_cockpit.ini
LoadoutImage=F-16A_Netz_loadout.TGA
HangarScreen=F-16A_Netz_hangar.JPG
LoadingScreen=F-16A_Netz_Loading.JPG
AvionicsDLL=Avionics70.dll
AvionicsDataFilename=F-16A_Netz_avionics.ini

[LOD001]
Filename=F-16A_Netz.LOD
Distance=100

[LOD002]
Filename=F-16A_Netz_LOD2.LOD
Distance=250

[LOD003]
Filename=F-16A_Netz_LOD3.LOD
Distance=500

[LOD004]
Filename=F-16A_Netz_LOD4.LOD
Distance=1000

[LOD005]
Filename=F-16A_Netz_LOD5.LOD
Distance=10000

[DamageTexture]
DamagedPostFix=_holes.DDS

[shadow]
CastShadow=TRUE
ShadowCastDist=10000
MaxVisibleDistance=800

[TextureSet001]
Directory=USAFGrey2
Name=USAF Grey 2
Nation=USAF
Specular=0.400000
Glossiness=0.400000
Reflection=0.000000

 

My F-16A_15_DATA.INI starts like this:

 

[MissionData]
NationName=USAF
AircraftRole=FIGHTER
AircraftCapability=DAY_AND_NIGHT
ServiceStartYear=1981
ServiceEndYear=2007
Availability=COMMON
Exported=FALSE
PrimaryRoles=SWEEP,CAP,INTERCEPT
SecondaryRoles=SWEEP,CAS,ESCORT,ANTI_SHIP,STRIKE,SEAD,RECON
NormalMissionRadius=1270
MaxMissionRadius=1543
Ceiling=17617.0
MinBaseSize=SMALL

 

How come the plane is pure black with no skin? What am I missing? The grey USAF skin works fine with the stock Netz, so that's not the problem.

Your post is confusing as you state that the grey USAF skin works fine with the stock Netz. so can we assume that you've made another skin?

 

Most probable cause - Your new bitmap names must match those in the stock Netz.

 

Second most probable cause - There is still a transparency layer in your skin bitmaps.

or, the skin got renamed -- a nono; it has to retain the same name as the Netz lod calls for (see the Irianian F-16 I did as an example)

 

or the skin bmp aren't in the a skin sub-folder for the 'new' F-16

That was it. I had renamed the skin .bmp . Works now. I think I'll post it if I can get MigBuster's permission to include his USAF2 skin.

 

Thanks!
