:help: How do you create nosearts

Well, you need a program to create the actual image, like photoshop, and a .dds converter. Then you just create the desired image in photoshop and convert it to .dds and put it in this folder: Combat Flight Simulator 3\aircraft\shared
make sure you get the name right, it should look like this:

noseart_br_#.dds for britain
noseart_gr_#.dds for germany
noseart_us_#.dds for USA

Enter the first following number that isn't yet used instead of the #

I think that should do it.. (correct me if I'm wrong)

You are right about putting the dds. in the Combat Flight Simulator 3\aircraft\shared.You can name the dds. with what ever name you like.________--(Very imporent) >>>>--You will also need to put a bmp. of the dds picture into the Combat Flight Simulator 3/uires/noseart of the country you make the noseart for or you can put the bmp in all the country noseart file if you like. I use Print.net a free download to convert my pictures to dds. Works very good for me.
Good Luck,
