......Help?

Postby Giteen » Sun Mar 04, 2007 2:15 pm

Hi,

I've been having small problems while painting aircraft.  Depending on my design, I occasionally need to put logos, etc. on surfaces like the tail.  **When I do this, the image shows up right on 1 side, but flipped on the other.  Is there a way to get any "tail" image to show up correctly on both sides?

**(The Douglas DC-3 is a good example of my problem because it only has 1 tail side for painting.  Not 2 sides like the 747-400.)


                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     -Giteen

Not posible. If its only got one tail on the image to paint on, its gonna be backwards on one side.

Im not sure what program you are using to repaint with, but with PSPX you can mirror the image for the oppisite side. I had to do that on the Dash 7 repaint.

Hello. I have FSXDE and I am planning on starting a VA, however, I cannot get my SDK to work to repaint default FSX planes in my VA liveries. I also want to design my own custom airport where the VA hub will be based. I need you to explain every step, from instillation of the SDK to painting it, please!!!
