Question: How to "extract" all Textures of the static planes? QUESTION ANSWERED

[kraut1]

Hi All,

I am currently creating some modified skins for static planes. In first line to have static planes with alternative skins e.g.: static plane P39, P40 with USAAF markings instead of USSR skin.

https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/88556-static-planes-skin-set-v01-guide-how-to-convert-skins-for-static-planes-released/

My information about filenames and examples of static plane skins is based on the Graphics\Blocks\Textures folder that I found in "Kuban Autumn Nth Africa Desert Beta" mod.

In this Mod I found many Textures of static planes, but not all.

 

For the planes.dds texture, that contains all static plane skins of BoS I need for example the damaged planes_dmg.dds version.

 

I have "extracted" the Graphics2.gtp, but in the folder are only .mgm files, but not the subfolder Textures with the textures.

How can I get the original IL2 GB texture .dds files (in ...graphics\blocks\textures\) for further modification?

 

Many thanks in advance!

locations3.gtp or one of the subsequent locations gtp files is what you want I think
