Bf109E-4 Propeller Nose Cone

[TP_Fritz]

I've been using the new paint template for the Bf109E-4, and I cannot figure out how to get the propeller nose cone to not cover the nose cannon.  I've seen a couple of skins where the cannon isn't covered, and I've compared their DDS file with my own to try to find where this annoying thing is, but I've not located it.

 

Can anyone shed some light on how I can avoid this?

 

This is what I'm getting:

I spent some time last week figuring this out. It is the alpha channel that makes the tip transparent so that it is the correct shape. I assume you're doing the same thing I did which is converting an existing E-7 template of your to the E-4. If you look at the Alpha from the public E-4 template you'll see two black circles near the bottom. Make sure those ares are black on the alpha you use with the skin.

Awesome - thank you!  I figured it was something related to the Alpha channel, but didn't consider just trying to black out those parts.  Thank you again!
