Brilliant Nick thanks a million.

I also added/swapped out the 'vvc_2bump_spec.dds' which Nick had modified in post #76 (above) to the main C-47 V3.14 texture folder to make the 'blue tinge' vanish from the seatbelts in the default brown VC.

Here is one 'before', and two 'after' shots :



No more 'blues'. Thank-you, Nick.

Cheers,
Milan.

First off I want say this aircraft is incredible. Thank you to all involved for your hard work, time and efforts. It proudly shows in the product.

I've been looking through the forum and haven't seen any question (thus far) in regards to the models being different from previous versions. In particular regards to the beacon light on the tail. All the paints show a beacon on the tail fin in their thumbnails but I'm not seeing it on the aircraft. Almost all the aircraft are using the line "model= blank" in the .cfg file. When I select the beacon switch to "on" in the VC, I have no beacon on the exterior. It does seem to appear that there is one on the belly around the back offset to one side but it doesn't come on either. Navigation lights work as usual with no issues. Is there a different model I should be setting the various repaints to call up to get the tail beacon back? Thanks for any and all help.

Cheers,
Thad

Ah ha! Thanks Ralf. I suspected I had to do something like that.

Cheers!

HD Sharp

Gman's olive colors look sharp in V3.14. Thank-you, Nick, for the seatbelt and seat port-overs to this latest version.

 

[Double J]

Can I have some fuchsia seat belts with orange seats please? my god so many posts about seat belt colours

Fly the damn plane...enjoy it! These guys spent years on it.

 

[ncooper]

Fuchsia seat belts with orange seats coming up.












No, not really.
Though it's really no trouble.
Look at how many repaints there are for the outside and no one is complaining.

 

[511Flyer]

Be careful what you ask Nick for. You want the aircraft in Miss Demeanor colours?

 

[ncooper]

Ah yes Dennis, "based on" or "inspired by" I think

 

[511Flyer]

Hi Nick,

I've just noticed that you have 511 postings. Very strange coincidence.

 

[griphos]

Perhaps all of this seat color stuff can go in the paint thread so this thread can stay about feedback and support?

C-47 Installation

I think I have screwed up my installation while trying to install updates. Is there a single file available that will install the plane with all of the updates? This would certainly help me get back on track.

Thanks,

Tom

If I delete the existing C47 file. Then install the C47 V3.12 beta and then the latest .14 file will that be a correct installation?

Thanks,

Tom
