First of several skins for Tim's T-33. This one as noted in the title is from the 57th FIS based at Keflavick AFB, Iceland from the early 70's to early 80's.

Pretty quick I guess Bone. I haven't zipped it yet, but I guess the main question is. . .since this texture is done as a 4096x4096, can your system handle it? To be honest, even with my limited system, I haven't seen that the larger texture size does anything to change FPS. Possibly if this was a "dds" texture with everything that goes along with that. . .it might, but one texture seems to have no effect at all.

Should be ok. My chip is an Intel QX9650 OC'd to 3.8ghz. I have the T-33 going in both 9 and X. If you think it's going to be an issue, maybe you could do a low and high performance texture set...if it's not too much effort
 
Thanks Ted. . .I'm trying to work through this loss of detail problem I have with these textures right now before I release them. I was hoping that doing a larger texture size and then saving would keep the details but that hasn't been the case. We're just talking about 1 texture here so it shouldn't take too long to figure it out and then I'll post both of these new textures.
