Hi,

I'm in the process of doing a repaint on the PMDG 747 and am having a little trouble aligning a logo that runs from the tail down and onto the rear fuselage.  Does anyone know know how to achieve this so it all lines up perfectly on the model when loaded in the sim.

Thanks

John

Yes there is not problem in that, just move the logo in the tail (or fuse) into the good direction. save the paint,launch it in the sim and see.
Its a question of trial and error ( just estimate the amount of pixels you  need to move left or right to get in line)
Practise makes perfect.

ps
No need to say you must use a layerfile to perform this action.
You must move JUST the logo not the entire tail-texture.
 

Ok so it's just trial and error. There's no special way to do it that I'm missing.

Yes, unless you can create or have a "totalfuse" to paint on ,with markings on them showing you how to cut and where to paste the individual parts on the various texturesheets..
Making such thing is work for specialists, who can make it does not really need it for himself.
Its great when it comes with a paintkit, most paintkits have to do without.

Trial and error is the word.

Forgot to say.
