New night texture file

Featured Replies

Hi,I am working on the PMDG B-747-400 for my VA and once the day textures are finished, I am now dealing with the night textures. The default external night textures are two files "PMDG_747_FUSE_LEFT_L.bmp" and "PMDG_747_FUSE_RIGHT_L.bmp" but these only display the body fuselage. The day textures of the tail are in a file named "PMDG_747_Externals_T.bmp". There is no default "PMDG_747_Externals_L.bmp" and thus the logo cannot be seen using the default textures.I have followed Leen's indications to create a new night file for the tail part and I have named it "PMDG_747_Externals_L.bmp" but it is not seen although the file is int the right folder with the right name. Have I done something wrong?Thanks in advance,Lluís

OK Lluis, I gave you some indications "how to" make a light file , not how "to add" one.I am not sure but I think it is not possible to add a _L file to an existing plane wich originally has none.When a _L file is not programmed in the MDL file it simply does not work I think.As I said I am not sure and I really hope I am wrong.RegardsLeen
