If I saw that behind me, I would ram my plane into the ground unsolicited Hell this is terrible

Not nearly as awful as B singing his so called songs

quick question: I'm working on a skin for Diving_Hawk's USS Iowa mod, and I've run into a problem. I've installed this mod, which seems to work fine for normal skins. However, when I try to save a high-res (2048x1024) version of the .tga for the hull (Hull512.tga), the ship doesn't show up in-game. Scaling the texture down to its original size of 1024x512 works fine. Any ideas on why it's not accepting the high-res version?

Reading through all of this it looked like pilot skins in 2048 would be impossible.  But now I see it IS possible!  Pilot skins add to realism just as much as anything else.  Now we just need some skinners to make a bunch of pilots....maybe just a few for each country, to start with.

I have not tested the skins 2048 x 1024 pix. Skins 2048 x 2048 pix work on ships.
Probably have to redo skins the 3D mapping for 2048 pixels.
3D specialists know how to do it.

AH! Great news, it works with ship skins!  HURRAY... for Popeye the Sailor man! Toot-Toot!

Well done Barnesy12, is this a new mod or just a tweak ?

Yes, Barnesy, what is the trick to making larger skins for pilots???

Personally I would not use such Huge skins for a pilot, but a smaller version 1024x1024
would be nice to use for some pilot-skins.
You have to take into account that there are not many Large sized
photos of famous pilots to use in such large skins. Even trying to find good large size image of
actors faces is sometimes dificult. They all have to be in a certain angle and with proper lighting
for them to fit best into a pilot-skin.

This is great news. If  ships can use these large skins, so can Tanks and vehicles.
I must do some tests and see if this works.

YES.

[max_thehitman]

YES! ... DA !

Work master Greif11 in  my redaction in 2048 pix

Spacibo Comrade Carsmaster!! 
Tanks and motor vehicles can now be better painted with bigger skins!!
FANTASTIC!!
Il-2-1946 still has many great surprises to see and enjoy.

I don't think there is a trick for making larger skins for pilots.
Search the net for good quality images and use your photo editing skills to create a 2048 texture.
Yes, finding large sized images of famous pilots is difficult and most of them are black/white but finding large sized images of actors faces is the easiest thing to find on the net.
Actors, singers etc. are so vain that it can't be a problem. 
Just like my screenshot on the previous page of that "singer" (who's name shall not be mentioned anymore) is a resized .tga of Barnesy Better Pilots Redux and I edited in a high rez image of that "singer".
