hi there everyone...i have a question about this skin...i downloaded and made a standalone for this skin from the original download...works just fine...it came with these 2 dds files, pylon sdds.dds and swordfish_asv_t.dds...i see these 2 files are also included in the swordfish-mkiii_update..my question is: does anyone know what these 2 files are for? it doesn't appear they are needed?

Hi. superashi. The 2 dds files are needed for the textures on the radom ect. without them they will just show up black, but as the aircraft is black anyway you may not notice at first that the pylons are not textured, the 2 dds files in the swordfishiii and the swordfishiii_update are both identical so you can use any ONE set,
 
hi jaycee...thanks for the reply...i see where these files are referenced now...

maybe you can answer this one for me...it is this...when flying missions (or even in free flight) i have accessed the gun stations (using F keys) to activate the different guns and when i f4 back to the outside view the plane (or using a tank) the plane stops flying...there is no control over it...same with tanks??? what is this? a bug?

No not a bug that should not happen, its never happened to me, and ive never heard of this before, Afraid i cant help with this one, but start a new post and describe the problem. there are a good bunch of fellows here i am sure someone may be able to help you. WAit a minute after you hit the F4 key Try hitting The F6 Key That brings you back to controlling the plane, let me know if this helps.
 
When you hit F4 when you are in the gun station you are still in the gun station with the outside view so you can't control the plan only the gun. To get back to the cockpit you need to use the F6 key.
