Black Prop disk

Hi. I am getting a black prop disk on the CR-42 downloaded from AVHistory. I want to use the P-39 Airacobra prop disk effects. I copied the p-39 effect into the CR-42 Textures folder. How do I rename or reference the file to be active on the CR-42? THX.
 
Hi Skunkwood,

You need the shared files from AvHistory as well, this includes the prop disks, some guages etc etc

to use the P39 prop texture you need to open up the CR32 model file and search for .dds in the main text.

In there you will see a list of texture names, one of them will be it_prop_static.dds and It_prop_blur.dds or something like that, once you have identifed the correct name, simply rename you P39 prop texture to that name, it should then show in game.

HTH

regards Rob.

G'Day Mate,

How did you go with your prop disc? if your still having trouble PM me your email and I'll send over an ammended texture for you.

I probably should have mentioned you need a hex editing program to open the M3D model files to be able to read the text. I use XV132 its free and easy to use.

Just open the model file using this program then do a edit/search, typ in .dds in teh search window and hit go. it will take you to the first name that ends with .dds (CFS3 texture file extension)

from there all the skin names are very close together just read through until you find your prop image, and then rename your texture to suit.

regards Rob.
 
G'Day, Bob; I reloaded the shared files, and I'm good, now. Thanks. Any idea on how I can add weapons to a plane? The CR-42 only has guns, would like to add a bomb or two. THX again.
