Skins and Repaints

[Shado]

Hi Buzpilot are you aware that there are several layers to Cod skins?.

I can only assume that the Nacelles live on another layer other than the one you have painted, i havent looked at the Blenheim yet.

You might want to do a flood filled test skin if you havent already to see if the nacelles change colour at least that way you will know they dont live on that layer.

Theyre like onions mate

Does that make sense? a lot of the time I dont, so the missus says

[Buzpilot]

They are in a different file, M-overlay0.
How do i put this into skin?

[kristorf]

They well might be hard coded as they are part of the mechanical layer, making it impossible to paint them

So without wanting to state the obvious the only way around it at the moment would be extract, edit then re-inject it back into the file or files it originated from.......

I doubt that will be allowed.
One thing is to extract to get templates, totally different to mess with originals.
And probably risk getting banned online.

And this how it ended up:






Anyhow, if someone wants to use it, here it is:
