Siemens Schuckert DIV Spinner (in motion)

[the_dudeWG]

Am I going crazy, but the SSD4 spinner doesn't exist on the .DDS template (and cannot be painted)?

 

I performed my usual color mapping paint tool to the entire template to find the location of the spinner in motion (see following image - with wireframe showing)

 

The result (with wireframe hidden) looks like the image below. Above the spinner is red and stationary. Below is with animation active, and the spinner is default color (even though the entire template is painted one of nine different colors. That tells me that the spinner in motion is not colored by our .DDS file. ?

 

Oddly enough, if I load another 1C Official skin (Jasta 15 in the following example), it stays red when animated. How can this be?!?!

 

Has anyone discovered the same? What am I missing? Thanks in advance for any help on this. S!

Thanks, @szelljr! I guess I just completely ignored that other file. Reminds me of trying to work on MSFS2020 skins. THAT'S a nightmare! Cheers!
