It was creating a white sheen over the skin.  Like the default skin.  I replaced it and it looks better, try it.

How do you know the Do335 wasn't used in combat missions? How do you know it wasn't used regularly by war-weary pilots?

You're using false arguments to justify a NON-COMBAT skin, just for the sake of... I don't know actually. Are you just trying to get a reaction, or you just want a colorful skin?

IL2 has lots of colorful skins. They even have lots of bright purple and green flames painted on their skins.

Maybe we should do that too, right?


<oldrolleyes>

The Do335 was used seen in combat.  Ask Pierre Closterman.

I am not using false arguments.  I am using deductive reasoning.  It is reasonable to expect that the skin did see combat as it was being tested in an area that combat operations were being conducted in.  These guys were not flying 400 miles to engage in combat.  It is often with in a 25 mile radius.

Couple that with allied pilots constantly looking for bases of Luftwaffe Aircraft, and you can reasonably expect that the aircraft was in combat, or ran from anything it encountered. 

Again, I ask: "How do you know it wasn't armed?"


Krusty, you have no idea and are guessing.  I am being reasonable and using basic logic.  Just because you do not like it does not mean it did not serve. 


Ohh, and as for the green flames or whatever, I really do not care.  If it was a real skin, then use it for all I care.

I used the material file from Fester's default B-25C skin.

I posted this before but the forum ate it.  The default skin's panel lines are wrong at the wing root, they are too far from it, radialy.    The belly is also missing a bunch of holes and gaps and stuff, near and forward of the wingroot's level.

Does anyone know what the story is with black/brown exhausts' material?  Brown seems to be the most common.
