Are those VLR antennas on the Mustang fake pilot objects?

I know it's not the right Mustang, it's just an experiment. It's a decal that covers the whole nose. I ran into a problem, and that is a portion of the decal is not showing in the right side wing root.  Below is a copy of the decal.ini entries:

The highlighted entry is the one not showing up.

Maybe there are to many decals on Fuselage_P? Using Bump- and Specularmap reduces the maximum decalcount (I think with everything enabled, the max is 4 decals per mesh.)

By the way, you don't need 2 separate files for that. You could use only one decal and mirror it for the other side:

[Decal017]
MeshName=Fuselage_P
DecalLevel=2
DecalFacing=Left
FilenameFormat=P-51D/357FG/362FS/SqNoseArtL_
Position=0.799,0.002
Rotation=0.0
Scale=4.325
DecalMaxLOD=4

[Decal022]
MeshName=Fuselage_P
DecalLevel=2
DecalFacing=Right
FilenameFormat=P-51D/357FG/362FS/SqNoseArtL_
Position=0.799,0.002
Rotation=0.0
Scale=4.325
DecalMaxLOD=4
Reverse=TRUE

 

P.S.: I admire your dedication for the Mustang.

TK's Decals Tutorial from 2002 says There is a max limit of 4 decals that you can apply to any single mesh. (ie, 4 decals max per fuselage, 4 per nose, etc, etc). Try deleting one of the other decals you have on Fuselage_P,  the aircraft number or the squadron code, and see if the nose decal then works.

There are some differences between both sides...
