Hey Gents [smiley=beer.gif]
I need to know why my repaints are coming out alittle blurry? I would like them to come out like the original aircraft textures (Crisp). If I add a logo to my repaint, Forget about it, It's a freeking mess in the sim!

I'm no expert, but my guess is that the original textures were made on a template much larger, then scaled down. If it's the same with all aircraft you repaint, then try saving in a different format before exporting it to a .dds

Importing oversize logos and reducing them will make them sharper.

This sounds like you are saving in DXT BMP with the mips box checked, save withou mips.

Garry,

I thank you for that bit of info. I read about that (MIPS) thing in the readme files, but damn if I know what the heck they are.

I was in that DXT.bmp program lastnight and noticed the mips box 'was' checked.

Glad you're sorted.

It's one of those simple things that makes such a big difference.

We've all been there

Best wishes
