Skin request

[II./JG27_Rich]

I love this lighter tan on F4s and F2s. All Desert wing skins seem to be a lot darker. A blank one would be great.

Is this one any good?

Or this one (slightly brighter).

Copy it into the "PaintSchemes\Skins\tobruk_Bf-109F-2_Trop" folder

They look great. Thanks Puma  

 

Maybe I should try to duplicate that box art

Not being "that guy" but its missing the stencil layers. Are those added in automatically in game and separately from the markings are are thay part of the same?   Asking out of curiosity. Its been many years since I skinned in CloD.

To be honest, no idea. This isn't my skin, I have just lightened it. It's one of nearly 9Gb of skins I have. Just helped out lightening is as requested.

Appears they are added in game.

 

Here are the two skins above, lighter one nearest camera.

Thanks Puma. I was having a senior moment remembering. 

 

Indulge me further - are the stencils added separately from the in game markings?

The stencils are added by the game. 

They are on a seperate layer from the skin ( or default skin). They are actually part of another layer .. if I remember correctly they are on the same layer as the panel lines and rivets.  These layers are not editable by the user (you).

For TF6:

All of the stencils and panel lines and rivets will be 4K on most of the flyable aircraft that exist now in the game, as these are being updated as part of the Visual Update. This is planned for TF6, but I am unsure how many of the older aircraft will be affected by these new stencils and rivets etc.

This gives a vast improvement to the look of the aircraft.

 

Ones that I can remember offhand as having new 4K stencils/panel lines/rivets.

 

Bf109

He111

Spitfire

Hurricane

Gladiator

Wildcat

P40

Bf110(?)

 

There should be more than these on release.

Excuse me if my memory fails me. I might be wrong on one or two of these, though I don't  think so.

 

It isn't just these layers that are being updated. Most of the uneditable layers are being remade in 4K size.

 

I have worked on some of the stencil layers. Other team members are working on other stencils, and on all the other layers too.

 

The new aircraft in TF6 should all have 4K rivets and panels lines too.

 

BTW this work takes time!!!!
