FW190A pitot tube question

Post by Steven190 »

I am trying to do a re skin of the FW190A-8. I am having trouble with the pitot tube.

Where is it on the template? I think it is in the lower right section just below the wing, but I have tried to paint it red to locate it.
It shows up a RLM 76, but no red.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Steven,

yes, lower right or upper right if will on the working sheet before reversing it
Is your texture actually being reversed vertically before/on save?

I flipped the psd to have the underside wing on the bottom, then I save it that way with out trying to remember to when I convert to dds.

Is that the right way? I have painted that portion to the RLM75 color I am using for that section of wing, but it does not show up in game. I have saved it as a dds in DXT5 and DXT1

Thanks for the response.
