    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

I'm in love with this old machine, I found this model of Heinkel He178, simple model but with a few hours of work ended up getting interesting, I made a paint kit for him, but now I have no idea how to paint it , do you have any information on how it was really the painting of the prototype?, and also some suggestions of paintings are accepted

Hello Mario,

I believe the original prototype was natural metal but you can also look at other contemporary designs from that era for reference regarding the textures.

There is a photograph of a replica Heinkel He 178 at the Rostock-Laage Airport (Note Heinkel logo on tail) on the Heinkel He 178's Wikipedia page:

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinkel_He_178

For suggestions regarding other paint schemes, try having a look on Google Images. There are some nicely built plastic model kits of the Heinkel He 178 but the colour schemes all tend to follow a similar theme - natural metal and/ or grey.

Good luck with your textures :encouragement:

Regards,
Stratobat
 
making a texture of metal, in FSX was right but in P3D is not appearing, what will? in fact I noticed that all aircraft in P3D the Alpha does not appear, something is wrong
