Zargos

When I open this topic, I was thinking about how to make "operational" bare metal skins like these ones : I must confess that I haven't tried anything yet.

👍 Thanks.

It's certainly a matter of alpha channel. If your alpha layer is plain black the whole skin appears transparent in the game ...

Bloody Hell, you're right ! Sorry. The problem is now corrected !

I'm going to check ...

Hello, I've updated my P39L with major improvement comming from Pierre64. More details here : By the way : can a moderator pin this topic in the list of templates please ? Thanks in advance.

Dear all, I've updated my template to include Pierre64' work. Now the template includes : - All the former features (paint scheme, weathering, shadows, etc.) - My original panel lines and rivets - Pierre's panel lines and rivets In addition you also can download the normal maps that go with either panel lines set. It is important taht you select the normal that match with the panel line set you've chosen otherwise the panel won't fit with the corresponding bump. : - Structure Zargos goes with P39L1_B (Zargos).dds bump map - Structure Pierre64 goes with P39L1_B (Pierre64).dds bump map Don't forget to rename P39L1_B (xxxxxx).dds into P39L1_B.dds when copying it in the appropriate directory.

I'm sorry Pierre, your file has a PSP (Paint Shop Pro ?) extension which is not compatible with Photoshop. Can you save it as a PSD file ? By the way Raptorattacker : how did you manage to open Pierre's PSP file with Photoshop ?

Hi Pierre, I suppose that your pannels lines are closer to the real ones than mine. So I can replace my panels line by yours and also replace my normal map by yours and update the all package in the first collaborative template of IL2 Great Battles.

By the way ... a last word : I'm on holliday in Italy for a couple of weeks. I won't be able to work on any skins.

Well I'm not used to make fake skins in general. And since the D.520 is a mythic plane for me I won't do it. Sorry.

Why not. But there are so many original skins for this bird ... I don't know which I'll make first.

And now, I'm starting a Fw190A-8 skins : a "Strumbok" of the 6./JG300 : WIP of course ... See U soon

Hello, I've made an update of the Red 6 skin because I've found profiles with different interpretations of the background of the insigna: red or blue. Since historic white and black picture don't help to make a choice, I've made the two versions : Download updated skins here See U soon. Cheers.

Superbe Pat ! J'aime particulièrement le 10 Noir ... très original le camouflage. De mon côté l'actu c'est une skin d'un Bf109G-6 de la 2./JG300 en livrée de nuit : A télécharger ici. A plus.
