Gentelmen, is there a way yo test skins without using the game? Mine works so bad I'm going crazy.

[Vampire_pilot]

I don't know of any.

But you can easily run the game and your paint program in parallel and change between them and check in QMB preview as you go and paint... it's how I do it.

Hello singüe,

I also hate this loading problem.

When I painted the Lancaster skins in 2048... grrr!

"vampilots" note is good. Additionally deactivate all HD-stuff (if you don't paint in HD) per JSGME (True Color Textures for...).

Good luck.

Best regards, Gerhard

As do I.

...change between them and check in QMB preview as you go and paint... it's how I do it.

To change between press Alt+Tab.

Thanks for your advice, people, this is the way I do It, but muy laptop is so cheap and works so bad that will end kicking It to the trash can. Also my game is broken and  I've lost muy backup. Well, could be worst.

If there's a solution available, why send it by PM instead of sharing with all users?
Seems a bit counterproductive me thinks.

Mike, I'll give a try a Lepermagloire solution que Will tell how good It is.

[leperemagloire]

No secrets, so far no solution had been made to his problem, and it seemed to me that those who had already answered knew the existence of Skinl exe, that's all.

[SAS~Storebror]

Yep, Sknil and MeshViewer can do the job if you have the extracted meshes of the plane at hands.
That however is probably out of scope for most skinners.
Add to that, Sknil has certain issues with the material set of newer planes (4.13 and onwards) - MeshViewer can deal with those.

Of course.
If you want to skin a modded plane, you have access to  the 3d in the folder
Skinl don't work with some modded planes,
 I noted :tga textures format not compatible with application,and with some errors in édition of hier him: spécialy with // before  [part] or too big space between paragraph.
You still have an error message, but it's not always easy to fix it.
If you can not load the hier him, you can still load the mesh, except those where there is an error.

Tried and failed, I do not know if my fault or my laptop. When I can get It working properly I Will have another try.
