Bingo! Thanks mate,and thanks all for the interess and the help!

That's right mate, a trasparent rivet map layer,pratically, that I can past over the other tail maps

Mmmhhh ok guys. Normally,for any skin I done,I worked first on all surface details like the camo,panel lines or rivets,then adde the markings,if painted, or simply saved them and left at the declas to do the job,ok Now I've four set of tails with the unit marking painted on,and stupidily only after this I decided to add the rivets. An example The first choice was to add the rivets directly on the jpg, but there are 4 of these ,quite a lot of work. For this reason I asked if was possible create a common layer with only the rivets,to be saved and over impressed on the other three,like a decals or a transparent sticjer ok? I'm sorry but my bad english and my very limited knowledge of some PC terminology don't help me... You're the best guys in help noob like my,I know this!

Ok, I've already know how add a transparent layer mate,thanks. So, after add the new layer and made the necessary settings of opacity,I'll paint all the rivets,then I can save only the "rivetted" layer as a tga ( to create a decals layer ) in order to paste it over the other tails?

Hi all gents. I 've a very important ask from any user of Gimp,as I'm still in the lower step of the learning curve about this programm. Some days ago I started to customize some F-18 skins for El Dorado Canyon and now I'll add some rivets but was stupid enough to not create a common map of the vert tails (that now are complete of painted markins for any of the four squadrons). So, before start to became crazy, is possible with Gimp to add a transparent layer over the map,drawing the rivets and made a copy ( trasparent obviously) that can be overimpressed on the others tail maps? Just like adding a acetate sheet over a drawing, work on it and gluing over another drawing? Hope to be clear of what I mean and that someone can help me. Thanks in advance

Thanks mate,just try my best, very far from any real modders...

View File SF2NA A-7s Skin Pack SF2NA A-7s Skin Pack = Tested in SF2NA, Full-5 Merged This project started as a personal customization to improve historically the skins for the VA-72 A-7B_71 for the squadron cruise aboard JFK in 1975 and for VA-81 and -83 aboard Saratoga during the clashes with Libya of 1986. So,I realize them basically to be used in the Northern Sabre 75 and El Dorado Canyon Campaignes present in the SF2NA Expansion Pack and SF2 Med Crisis. The starting skins with which I played around are 3W for the A-7B_71 and the Wrench'TPS one for the A-7E_74,so much of the credit will be deserved by them; I added to the Echo skins some missing panel lines and the latches and air vents of the avionic bays plus some extra weathering and corrosion control. The Bravo received the same treatement of the Echo plus the squadron specific blue on the wings and fin tips and the white of the nose. All the decals was done by me. All the Bu.Nos are historycally correct for all three Squadrons; this was one of the hardest part and I was able to barely sort out the required 12 to complete the standard number of planes deployed by a Navy squadron. ========== To Install: As always raccomended,all in the relative folders in your game(s) ----------------------------- Credits: 3W for the A-7B_71 and A-7E_74 Corsairs and the -7B_71 skin Wrench for the already great A-7E_74 TPS skins,a handy starting point Makoto for the idea and permission of the VA-72 fuselage stripe decals Me for the decals and the small improvements ------------ Know issue: The first issue is common to all three skins; despite I'd the pilots name for the Squadrons cruises,I wasn't able to pair name and assigned planes,so the nameplates are present but empty. Next nthe ones for the VA-72: the most important, I forgot one chess line on the rudder;I was misguided by the initial reference found and when I noticed the error,due to unwillingness to redo the work again from such an advanced state,I choose to left all as it was, sorry, The fuselage stripe;actually the stripe will stop at the lower edge of the avionic bays access doors, but I was unable to obtain this and as result the decals continue 'till the most forward of the MLG doors,sorry but my skill are very limited... If someone will address these issues,feel free to try ( and share) the result! -------------------------------------------- Legal note: This package may NOT in any way, shape or form be used in any payware addition. ------------------------------------------- Gianni "RustyKurnass" Coniglio ========== Submitter RustyKurnass Submitted 11/17/2020 Category A-7

Great news! I modified your previous GR1A with the GR1 DS skins and nes decals ( so few...)

Thanks for the info !!

Thanks Wrench, for some reason I've suspected that this can be one possibility,but as a noob that don't know enough how the game "think" I preferred ask the community!

Hi gents, I need a info about parked aircraft on carrier in the SF2 Korea mod. In the first Campaign,500625 North Korea Invades, I replaced for the Royal Navy the 807 Sq and SeaFury with the 800 Sq and amariani Seafire 47 for a more historical correctness. Now, when play with the Seafire, I haven't any planes parked on the deck,not Seafires or Fireflys; instead,when play any othe RN Campaigns,there are almost always one of the types parked if not both. Is a very minor issue , just eye-candy, but I'll ask if there is something I can do to rectify it. I changed only the planes,squadron and skin lines in the 500625 North Korea Invades.ini and 500625 North Korea Invades_Data.ini Thanks in advance

Oh guys,how much I love Yakarov' AV-8B? In SF2NA Expannsion, pounding the "Red" from JFK in 1975...

Beautiful!!!! Also,like the offwhite apparence of the markings

I'll say needed! remember guys that the Crusader enjoyed a better kill ratio of the beloved F-4 in Rolling Thunder...

Great work!!! The Sader deserve more attention I think,so thanks! Great job woth the air vents, made similar job in some custom skin foe the A-7B/E

That's a beauty thing! Another beauty thing will be the possibilty of the dual rails also for the F-8C...

Working the sand of Lybia...El Dorado Canyon,1986

Sorry mate,not noted at first,clicked in from the home...

TW fault. But here in the forum the various modder realised the missile in the correct colors with the anodized metallic shade for the forward fins and guidance section

Great mate Now can load planes like the Mystere IV with the appropriate RP!
