Repaint shows wrong in FS9

Featured Replies

Hey guys,

 

I have the Wilco Airbus Evo.1 Pack, and I try to do a repaint for our VA, but there is something really really wrong.

I've downloaded the Paintkit directly from Wilco, and making the editing in Photshop CS6.

To make sure here is the saving process: In PS Save as: BMP (24 bit), then I use DXTBmp to make it FS9y (saving Extended bitmap)

 

So the problem is when I load the aircraft is FS this is how it looks:

And all my graphics on the maximum.

Also if I load the aircraft in FSrepaint it shows normally.

 

Can anybody give me some clue whats wrong?

Thanks so much

Check and make sure you have MIPMAPs - Include when saving, unchecked in DXTbmp. Looks a case of the blurries caused by mip mapping the textures.

Include when saving, unchecked in DXTbmp.

 

And where can I include mipmaps?

I always just open the texture with dxtbmp and saving as extended BMP, don't doing anything with it

Make sure that, before saving in DXTBMP, the "Including mip maps" checkbox is unchecked.

 

PS: Check the repaint, something looks not right with the door configuration. Is this an A320 or A321?

Thats an A321.

According to this, it looks okay to me: http://goo.gl/4QgjF

The doors L1 and L2 are OK. The thing that does not look OK to me is the A320-style overwing emergency exits: I'm not aware the A321 has been ever configured like this, only some Easyjet A319s. Usually there is a L3 door, just like this:

Ohh I see it now, yeah thats weird, but I think it is because they didn't make a whole new model for the A321, only added two extra body section, as I figured from the textures. All have A320_Main1.bmp and has a A321_Various2.bmp containing the extra section textures. And yeah..On the panel the litllte table or whatever says: OO-TCK; MSN 343, which actually is a Thomas Cook A320-212 http://goo.gl/n9zm6

So this could be answer for that. I never realized it :D
