Suitably war weary Gius, keep up the good work
Uncle,
i need an advice: in a texture how to eliminate the line along the spine? is there any trick about that?
Thanks in advance,
Giuseppe

sorry for the late response
Gius,
I've only just taken the time to look at Allen's Lanc Mk1 in MCX. I can't see any obvious line running down the spine of the aircraft with Allen's base paint. Perhaps you introduced a sharp edge when you were applying wear & tear? If so, then I'm afraid it's blend & smudge until it's less obvious (only helpful if you're using a separate paint layer I know
).
Quite often I avoid anything other than the faintest dust/dirt at the edges of bitmaps because of this type of issue - you can lose hours of trial & error otherwise.
Any chance you could post a pic of the problem area? The screengrab doesn't really show anything obvious to me.

This could be my falt (or Alphasim as I'm not sure). Looking at models in Model Converter X works really well but it dosen't use the same light settings as CFS2.
In gMax the left and right side are not welded togather. In CFS2 the left and right fuse are not shaded/lighted as 1 object but are shaded/lighted as 2 objects.
You can see this clearly on the PZ1 Phantasm I building now. The fuse has been welded down the center but I can't weld the gear doors to togather because the open from the center.

Below is new model for the Lancaster B Mk.I. Give it a try and let me know if that fixes the bug.

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Skins - British
Description: Skinpack for ALPHA Allen Cfs2 Avro Lancaster B MkI
Here are three skins for Allen's and Alpha Simulations Lancaster B MkI.
The needed plane is located here: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=50&id=21396
The skins depict the period 1943-45 (late war) and are devoted to three planes belonging to different units:
1) AJG, 617° Squadron RAF
2) IQQ, 150° Squadron RAF
3) VRR "Ropey", 419° Squadron RCAF
Thanks to Allen and Alpha Simulation for this magnificent plane!
Hope you enjoy!
