Decals & clear parts

[amariani 4,886]

Is there a way to add decals over clear parts (canopies, windows, etc.).

[Wrench 9,848]

How?

[Wrench 9,848]

indeed! Give us the secret!!! 

we'd had several other mods that used that, and they came up "broken" when transfered from SF1 to SF2

[+yakarov79 11,089]

I just set decal on "glass" part as on any other...

I tought (seriously) its normal ...considering my old pc setup i didn't expect to have someting "more" and extra

 

this Loacho is not converted from sf1.

It is exported straight to sf2 using sf2 exporter.

 

Or it might have something to do with material asigned to node ?

 

here on rear door glass, tac number. Just another  decal..

That makes me want to listen to Hall of the Mountain kings, Flight of the Valkyries, and Dance of the Hungarian Kings.

also Royal Navy gaz and some Cobra got this in some parts...for sure Japanese Wakana Kisarazu special paint decal is on canopy glass.

[amariani 4,886]

It might be something to do with the 3d model itself 'cause I'm doing the exact same thing and I'm not getting the same results.

[Wrench 9,848]

I can almost bet (real) money it related to the applied material of the model

[+russouk2004 6,958]

IIRC if glass isnt mapped on the tga then the dec wont show or will be messed up....I flatten windows on tga so it wont affect the shine etc....maybe thats why it wont show on some models....glass may just be assigned tga and the glass mesh is just a mess of polys...

[+yakarov79 11,089]

might be im usually mapping glass parts like any other part of model...
