Skin folder update?
« on: March 25, 2004, 06:20:07 PM »
I am making Bf 109 G2 (Finnish MT-222) skin. I must check it Off Line very often because I have not any default panel lines to it, only photos and profile pictures and as you know her skin is all over very difficult.

My problem is (I'm a newbie skinner...:D ) that the skin is not updated altought I replace the 109g21 skin folder with the new skin version I have created... Can somebody please tell me where is the secret "Skin Update button"?:)

Cache folder? You mean the 109g21 skin folder? I must delete it at first and then replace the new skin files? And who are you? Do I know you?:D

Kanttori, Batz means a folder called "cache" in the AH2 folder not the skin folder itself. Delete the contents of the cache folder.

Kanttori? Never heard of ya....

As wmaker says there's a folder in AH2 file called "cache" delete the contents and your skin should show.

Thank you, it works now! I just stole the bottom wing from 109G6's skin, it works good and it's just correct looking (I have your reference pictures, WMaker). Upper wings are a hard job, I must built it almost from nothing.  I have signs ready and now I am working with the wing's panel lines.

WMaker, have you a good picture/drawing from the upper wings and panel lines? I must look the G6's wing skins, too...

But Wmaker, it is becoming a nice looking Finnish 109 G2, I think you love it!:aok
