Hi all.I`m repainting a feelthere PIC 737-300 and was not happy with window placements. As I`ve redone this, my windows do not align in the night shots.I`ve had a go at doing it myself, but I`m getting lost.Can anyone repaint " ext2_L.bmp" for me using the link below for my fuselage texture?I would deeply appreciate it.Eddiehttp://www.dejavued.co.uk/737PIC.htm

Hey Eddie,Here is a little trick to painting night windows.First, take your texture map and duplicate a new layer of it.Then make that new layer a negative image like shown below.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/145331.jpgThen select the windows. And if your paint program has a function called "Invert selection" (I use PSP and it has it), use it to select everything BUT the windows and flood fill the area with black.This is what it would look like.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/145333.jpgHere is the same pic but with the top layer's opacity reduced to reveal the original layer underneath (to grasp what I did).http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/145332.jpgGetting rid of the gray areas left around the windows would be up to you, but I would use a tool like PSP's background eraser to do it.The good thing is that the windows would be lined up perfectly, and you'd have varying luminance for each window when you were done. :)Regards,Steve Drahttp://img47.photobucket.com/albums/v144/S...Dra/banner1.jpgDownload my planes at Avsim here:http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID...&Go=Change+View

Hi.What a superb answer. Thankyou very much.How would you add the lighting effects to fuselage and tail?Thanks again.Eddie

Hi.I`ve made a night time texture to suit my edited window positions but have a problem.When landing lights are switched on, I get pretty good results.When I switch OFF landing lights ALL the lights go off!How can I get logo, window and landing lights to work individually?Please help.Eddie
