Spitfire Weathering

[kristorf]

Dev's (if you ever look here).
Could you please remove the damned awful weathering on the Spitfire (and a lesser extent the Hurricane) from this:-

Shouldn't be to hard, should it??

Yes indeed, I haven't got any screenshots from that far back, but I do always feel a little sad looking out over the wing of my spitfire, it looks more like a watercolour painting than a real object.
How far back does that shot go back? Is it the last retail patch or further back than that?

A lot further back mate I am afraid to say :(

S!

Fully agree. Looks simply awful. Slider to left = fresh plane. Slider to right = weathered. Simple.

Hi Chris
Yeah it would be great to get back to how Skin Hardcoding was as in Picture 3
but alas I think this is falling on deaf Ears,Why on Earth did they change it,"if it aint broke, dont fix it" :confused:
It would be better if the Overlays were Clean so that the Weatheing can be applied using the in-Game weathering Sliders as intended.
Its definatley a case of The GOOD then BAD now UGLY:rolleyes:

Keith;)

S!

Quite a difference. It is like the doors and hatches have been constantly opened/closed. I would expect, based on my work with planes, that most marks of wear would be around the gun bay doors, ammo storage doors etc. Not every single panel line.
