On the A-6 models the Fuselage Brakes seem to go like this...

 

The A-6A/B have the dark holed brakes, the E's have the holes removed or filled and painted, with low vis gray on the later models.

 

Without painting over the brakes, how can I just take an E texture and use it for an A model to represent an A model with solid fuselage brakes?

 

I've attached some skins I've been working on, updating the A-6s to a little more realistic look for certain eras.

 

The first two are E models from VA55, the last one is an A model I'm working on for VMA-225. Trying to make it's fuselage brakes solid, no holes.

I downloaded the LOD viewer, but I've realized I can't extract the LODs to view. I downloaded the A-6 Template as well.

 

I guess I can just try to paint the speed brakes and make it work.

 

I was just hoping to use the E textures on the A model, they are nearly identical save the speed brakes.

 

Not all the A model Speed Brakes were metal with holes, that's what I'm trying to fix.

you do NOT need to extract the lods to view them; you simply double click the aircraft's main ini (in your case, A-6A.ini).  It'll pull up the aircraft on it's own

 

And yes, ALL the TW Intruders are mapped identicly.

 

It's a simple repaint of the metallic sections on *_*_3 texture. Studying all the _3 textures will show you they're all the same

It doesn't seem to be working for me. I navigate to my my A-6A.ini and it says that it could not find LOD. 

 

Any clues?

Well, I know it's the speed brake from your pic. I will start there.
