BMP skins

Here's a silly question I should have got straight in my head a while agao.

How does the game use bitmap skins? What resolution do the files have to be?

Re: And just like that, another old scenario is revived.

Once I have time (after December 20th) I'll be trying to get round to all these half done scenarios and see if we can get them finished, at least after a fashion. So, yes. Ships.

Re: Transparency files

I swear I shall look at the inventory first. :twisted: Doing that now with the planes for the AITW rework. Many are there, and the new FMs are a blessing. The only reason I may not use some of the models is that in some slots there are specific squads and skins lovingly made for those squads, and it...

Re: Transparency files

Ray - because you have (quite correctly) laid about me several times for not looking in the 160 inventory, this time I did, and the alt plane set you mention is not in the current 160 downloads 1 and 2. I've now downloaded it from the link Tony posted. And have succesfully made off with the He177 va...

Re: Transparency files

Ray - I missed the "Alt Planes" folder. Is it in the current 160 download? Mike- the model and the skins look pretty good to me. What was unfinished about the model? Flyright took it over from my first rough workings on it. I do remember some difficulty with the undercart. Then there were ...

Re: Transparency files

I didn't find one in the 160 inventory, three multiskins were done shortly after Flyright finished the model in 2013.

Been sitting in my Steinbock setup for a while.

Re: Transparency files

Mike - I've been flying the He177 MS at the moment and seeing a glitch with the props, not in the first plane but further down the line. Could this be a set done in 1013 before the naming convention was sorted out?

Re: Transparency files

Thanks Jel,

I supposed this was set out somewhere, but couldn't think where to look.

Re: Transparency files

I saw this thread: http://mogggy.org/TheGen2/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=5995&p=38016&hilit=transparency+links#p38016 I remember John Gibbon going off a lot about this a while back, and we put in a whole list of transparency links. The reason I ask is that I am trying to bodge an old model for ...

Transparency files

Do I properly understand that we can now have a number of transparency files for any plane i.e not simply TEX and TRA, but MEX and MRA etc? Can someone point me to the definitive list of these file links?

Many thanls. I missed that staff meeting :oops:
