Are you speaking of applying a new texture to an already extant model?

i think so...... the idea is like a yin yang symbol kinda on top of a zero.... and use the japenese rising sun symbols as the different colored circles but the textures are mirrored so what you do to one side is done to the other...so he needs an unmirrored texture to make it work

What he needs is a 3rd party Zero if there is such an animal.

The 1st px below is my rendering of the CFS2 Zero's textures to a CFS1 model (also have equivelent gauges to use the CFS2 panel in CFS1). Mind you, stock CFS2 uses a texture compression that CFS1 will not (although CFS2 can use uncompressed CFS1 textures). Is the 2nd or 3rd px similar to what you're alluding to?

P.S. You do realize that YinYang was basically a Chinese concept?

I know the symbol isnt japenese but it just looks cool  ;D but thats not it really i made a basic drawing in paint but i cant figure out how to post it... but not just drawn on the rising suns like the yin yang symbol drawn over the entire top of the plane and the rising suns on each wing like the different colored circles in the symbol.... which now that i think about it would look kind of odd since the symbol would be sideways...

That one would also take a bit more time to apply:
1. It would involve piecing the symbol across matching textures
2. There tends to be additional an stretching effect across the top of the fuselage
   (dependant upon the specific model chosen)

That's handy. Where would one find these overhauled stock aircraft?
