Title: Does the Vulcan and Victor have their own skin templates?
Post by: BlackAce7727 on March 23, 2022, 03:19:28 AM

Hi all,

For my first request since returning to the community at SAS the title speaks for itself.

Since 2020 when I started releasing skins and the magnificent additions of the Vulcan and Victor aircraft for IL-2 I noticed something in the files that have been uploaded of the type skin wise, The skin layouts and so forth are almost identical to the Vulcan pack which was released a few years ago and their skin layout is the same, after experimenting I was actually planning to transfer and modify the X-Plane 11 Vulcan skins for IL-2 compatibility, it's difficult but not impossible.

If there is such a file that exists then I can promise the SAS community will not regret it. Since members here are actually turning out Vulcan skin packs I would be obliged if anyone has a template for the types? As the aircraft is clearly skin-able with the right tools and programs like Photoshop, but that goes without saying.

All the best and thankyou for the Birthday wishes on Sunday.
Eric (BlackAce)

I think most skins for the Vulcan are based on the Default and White skin that came with the mod. The Victor on the other hand, the skins are from Mace(?) who published the mod

Hope this helps  :)

Cheers Z,

I had a feeling that was the case, I got lucky with the Hunter ''template'' by Vamp in 2020. As I did mention mate this will be tough but I can try and do it from scratch with the X-Plane skins as a basis.

Thanks for your help though  :)
