How to remove or disable afterburner.tga?

[Eagle114th 659]

Hello everyone,

I am still puzzled about how to remove or disable 2D afterburner tga in SF2 aircraft.  I am still working on finding a way.  The reason why I want to disable them is that I am replacing 2D texture with a 3D afterburner node.  I have a lot of ideas for military thrust and afterburner inside the engine nozzle, to give it immersive feelings.

The advice is appreciated, as always.

Thank you for giving me an idea.  I used GIMP to erase the texture, saved it, and placed it in each skin folder.  Works perfectly!  The 2D texture engine disappeared.  Now it looks much better with 3D effects.

Gracias por darme una idea. Usé GIMP para borrar la textura, la guardé y la coloqué en cada carpeta de máscaras. ¡Funciona perfectamente! El motor de texturas 2D desapareció. Ahora se ve mucho mejor con efectos 3D.

¿¿??
Hi bro,
Could you show us how your modification turned out? I can't understand how you added a 3d element to afterburner

I will release the beta soon, so everyone can see how the various effects work. 

For now, I am working on fixing the bugs with night light and re-adjusting wing vortex effect.  When both of them are done, the beta will be released.
