I know the perfect is the enemy of the good, but after finally being able to load the A-36 into BAT I find it's in default naked aluminum! I downloaded BAT Skincollection v4.0, but that didn't have a skin, so where is the OD USAAF skin by Jarink that is in the screen shot on the BAT v4.2.1 download page?

If you can't find a skin (or other IL2 1946 Support ) here ,
make your second stop at M4T.
The solution is often found there.

A picture would be nice of that Skin,
Jarink made the Template, my Skins and their Names can be exposed by being
named after their R/L serialnumbers. Always using this for naming references

Code: [Select]

A-36A

These I have here in my Skinfolder, are not done by me:

MustangMk1 as A-36 MAVONNE-PRISCILLA flown by Bert Benear  Corsica 1944
A36A-86FBG-DonaldSmith
A36A-86FBG-Blank
A-36A_MTOLate_1
A-36A_MTOEarly_1
A-36A_MTO_1

Watch out for older A-36 Skins done for P-51B or similar standin Slots, I remember some.

Hope this Helps

32 A-36 skins here, with aero-brakes drawn on the wings ...

If you can't see the aero-brakes on the wings, then these are not A-36 skins ...

Pay attention to the name of the folder for the skins!
As you are in BAT, the folder is : A-36_Apache
Instead of : A-36A

Downloaded the 32 skins Mick suggested from Mediafile into the A-36_Apache folder, but they don't show in QMB, only the default. I can see them in the file too, so I'm not sure what's wrong.

[Kopfdorfer]

Perhaps they are HD skins.
In this case you need to either enable your game to view HD skins ,
or to reduce the image size down to 1024 x 1024  1 MB for the game to read them.

All the skins in PaintSchemes are 1024x1024 1MB, but QMB isn't seeing them. All the planes have one default skin, or some a void, and that's it. Which file is it supposed to read?

[Mick]

... did you put them in their proper skin folder named: A-36_Apache ...?

If you know where it is in BAT, open the "air.ini" file, the skin name folder must be exactly the one from the left column of the A-36 ... 

[Divebrake]

It's working! Somehow the A-36_Apache folder was inside a A-36 folder, don't know how that happened, but it's good now. Thanks very much guys!

When I did that Skinpack BAT didn't had an Apache.

But we had already 2 versions of that Mod.

One older from AMT here from SAS that I refurbished and passed over into
Beta Testing and to AMT Devs.
2018 I had no clue which version will make it.


That's why.

BTW. this doesn't help on the sole responsibillity of Users always checking up air.ini and where to put Skins.
A lot of Skinpacks and Campaigns shuffle Blindfolders for a plethora of reasons.
It's always up to the User to check.

Roger that Knoch, and Thanks!
