Tail Paint issue with PMDG DDS file

Featured Replies

Hi guys,

I just started to learn painting of the 777 but I have encounter some issue. After I paint the a/c, I crop and save it as TGA and then convert TGA to DDS with image flip and alpha. I have no issue with the fuse 1, 2 and tail. However, when i move to fuse 3. the paint is distorted and looks way off. Any one knows why? I will include the picture of it as attachment. 

Any help or suggestion would greatly help me. Thanks

Please share your solution, then we all can benefit your knowledge.
Thats what this forum is about.
Sharing experiences.

What caused your problem and how did you tackle it.?

Only time I had that happen was when I messed up saving the DDS so I would guess that the problem may lie there, especially as the other textures are fine.

Can't really help beyond that as I save direct to DDS from Photoshop.

Hope this helps in some small way.

Ohh yes I think it is caused by something going wrong when saving the DDS from the start.

The point is I want the OP to share HIS experince and solution.

This forum is about sharing experiences and not presenting a problem and saying afterwards "its solved" without sharing how it was solved.
