voids
new to skinning in cliffs, have done some in 1946 but there were voids to work with, can't find any in cliffs? are there any tutorials for cliffs skinning, any help will be greatly appreciated, I'll keep looking for now, thanks, Jay

Hi jayrc
There are no voids as such with CLOD as the aircraft lines,Rivets and Internals are Hardcoded and added over the skin in Game. You can still Create your own Skins using the Blank Skins Supplied but cannot edit Lines etc. Which is actually Better as you dont have to "Remove White" and Use "Bright" as you did in il2 1946 I find it more user Friendly. Saying that however there is one teething problem,I have just completed a Spitfire skinpack[http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=26421] and the Hardcoded Lines are Weathered by Default rather than clean and allowing me to weather manually in game. Here is an Excellent You Tube tutorial by BullyBoii1234 showing how to add skins to CLOD. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zG3x3VkFVQ Hope this Helps Keith |
this is awesome, just did a test and it works great, thank you:cool:

Hi.
The aircraft skin is scattered in many small parts. I made a panel-finder.jpg, which, if you put in the game, and the program, it is much easier to find them. Like this: Panel finder on the 109 Panel Finder Color Panel Finder White S! |
I cant recommend Tom's panel finder high enough, it will make your life much easier, give it try.

Thanks tom, I'm a little rusty, can't seem to get the panel finder over the aircraft skin, I try color to alpha, rgb, copy visible layer, past as new layer, merge visible layer but all I get left is the panel finder, I'm sure I'm doing it wrong, I found some old vids for using gimp with IL2 1946 but I'm struggling here, wish there was a tutorial in the sticky here, video would be great, any help? I saw some really nice skins on the servers the other night, I want a custom skin too.:grin: thanks, Jay

Let me thank you, as well, for the panel overlay.
I had to use a patterned one before, which, as you might suspect, was of limited use. This should make finding those pesky bits a bit easier. |

OK, I'm using GIMP, and am also having trouble using this panel finder.
Any detailed instructions from another GIMP user? EDIT: And will this actually make the panel lines show up in GIMP? That's what I really need. Otherwise lining up markings is damn near impossible! |
