Sdkfz 10/5 skin template part details...

[GenMarkof007]

S! All,

 

I was wondering if anyone has a Sdkfz 10/5 skin template with details for the parts in the template?

Why? I'm adding a German flag on the front top of the flak truck... but a bar is placing itself (in the final visual) over the flag where you can open the engine top.

View my photos below to help you understand my request.

A big thanks for any help or reply.
Cheers, GenMarkof

Also, if anyone tried to put some tree camo (3d) on some part of your tank skins... please let me know if I can view that skin?

The public skin template has a layer in the guides section of the psd called "solid" that could be helpful in spotting the parts you are looking for.

Thanks for this info... I did try to find a part that would work. But for now, I will need to do some more test.

The piano hinge is on the lower left side of the texture. It shows as a yellow strip in an otherwise red area on the solid layer.

I'm trying my best to find it... But not finding it.
If you can show a solid screen and show me with an arrow which strip, that would be great.
I'm looking in the lower left (red zone), but can't find that yellow strip?

Thanks

You are looking for the green rectangle inside the dotted line.

 

 

You can use the alternating dark and light pattern of the piano hinge to scale where your flag color changes (red, black, and white) will start and stop.

 

The bottom is the part near the windshield, and the top is near the radiator.

You inspired me to clean up all the issues with the available Sdkfz 10/5 skins.

 

Color Mod files

 

This zip file provides three mods for the custom _SdKfz10-5 skins. Two of them change the base vehicle color from Dark Yellow, to either Dark Grey, or Olive Green. This is required because skins that are not based on Dark Yellow end up still being partially Dark Yellow (mostly the flak 38), spoiling the overall effect of the custom skin. Updated versions of all the skins currently available through HSD are included to correct the remaining detail part color mismatches and to paint the piano hinge on the hood to match the various insignia patterns. 

 

The file structure is compatible with JSGME. This assumes you have the JSGME Mods folder installed inside your 1C Game Studios directory next to the IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles folder. If JSGME is installed somewhere else then you will have to change the folder structure to match.

 

If you want to insert additional custom skins for the _SdKfz10-5 in the future, you will want to place them in the Skins folder of the appropriately colored mod, rather than putting them directly in the game skins folder.
