[MarcoPegase44]

Hello,

 

A very sober little skin exercise from the new  Lagg3 template which is superb.

 

The goal is to make the atmosphere of the steppe dusty in the heat of the end of summer 1942.

 

This skin will be part of a series of defaults skins from VVS planes at the end of summer 1942 that I am currently working

on. (Il-2 and I-16 available). Comin son Yak1 69 and Pe2.

Awesome. But check the wheels. You have to use the alpha to cut off those corners.

Thank you for your compliments.

I checked the problem with the wheels, I couldn't find anything but my English is poor. Can you tell me what the problem is?

The inner hub of the wheels is rendered as a square shape right now.

Thanks Luke.-)

I just made some tests, by making changes in the Alpha layer there is no improvement. Looking at it closely it seems that the problem is in the template.

This is a barely visible problem..I will therefore leave it as I have to leave home for 10 days.

It is the same with La-5 and Yak templates. These corners must be "cut" off by making them invisible using black in the alpha.

This is a weird one guys.  The LaGG template I sent for public release has a layer called parts that should never be edited.  The area around the wheel hub should be pure black 0,0,0 for RGB by default.  The La5 is the same but for the La5FN I made a separate "Transparent Parts" layer right at the top of the layers.

 

EDIT:  Just noticed from the tyre detail that MarcoPegase is using an old template unofficial template I released a long time ago.  Maybe download the official template and copy the Parts layer again to see if that fixes it.

Hello,

I integrated the last "Parts" layer model into my template and replaced the old one, and did the same with the Alpha template.

The problem persists.

So I'm going to completely redo the skin in 2 weeks with the last official template when I get home. Tonight I have no more time.

We'll see if the problem still exists.

Hi MarcoPegase,

Thanks Marco. I will fly this skin soon and post some shots.

 

LaGG-3 is an under-rated and often disliked aircraft but handles well enough in the horizontal and is a steady gun platform. Just don't go vertical. Stay low, stay fast and use the devastating firepower it posesses. I've had some good victories in this aircraft.
