questions about applying text

Postby wish_bear » Tue Jun 17, 2003 2:58 pm

I was repainting my first plane, the Beech King Air 350. I have a few spots that are still white- but I can not figure out where they are in the original texture. I went to place a number on the planes tail, on one side you read it fine, on the other it is mirrored. How do you fix that?

You can't fix the lettering. The main fuselage textures are mirrored on all default aircraft. (I think this might be fixed in FS2004). Some of the heavies have special decal textures for fuselage markings.

Would anyone know of a tutorial or site so I could look at how to make/use the decal textures?

Thanks
