Tail Number

Postby N2744X » Mon Feb 19, 2007 7:45 pm

Hi everyone,
                   Does anyone know where the font that controls the tailnumbers on the default aircraft is located, so that I can change it to a more realistic font? And if so, what font will I be replacing?

Its not a Font, its the paint on the textures, in order to change it you need to do a repaint. There should be a tutorial somewhere.

no no no, the tail number that you can change on the sides of the DEFAULT aircraft, like the Lear 45.

...good question, that.... ;)...!

One of the many reasons why I use the default aircraft is because I can show my Registration letters on my Fuselage, etc, after typing it into the "ATC" box....[G-BPLF]... ;)...!
..quick and easy...!

It would be nice to be able to change the Font/type to another larger, and different, type... ::)...!

...'trubble is it may also affect the same font used elsewhere in the Sim... :-/...?

...any ideas...?

(Note: It cannot be seen by other flyers in Multiplayer, tho'...)... :'(...!

Paul... 8-)...!

P.S. The registration letters, etc, can also be applied to certain 3rd party aircraft as well, by the same method...;)...!
