You forgot to "vertical flip" the body texture.  Or you did a 180degree rotation instead of vertical flip.

There is a pretty big bug, where the texture bitmaps are written upside-down.

Btw sorry about the inverted textures, they come out the correct way in the next TE patch.

WildThing: Your texture source folder should be texsrc not texscr

Ok finally got the skin pointed in the right direction. It seems I was working on the wrong part of the tail. Its really hard to picture how the skin wraps around plane.  Any tips on  skin making. I did lots of them in AW but the skins are not as complex puzzle pieces as they are in AH.

takes all of 2 min just color changes, it can take considerably more trying to redo panel / rivet lines as well as historical skins.

My 110 is a bit too dark, but its easy enough to fix.

Hazed make sure the image you have in your texsrc folder is 8 bit 256 colors. Thats the number reason for the te crashing when you click build.

If you need help email me the file and I will take a look.

However, recreational skinning (without building a terrain or making real quality skins) seems to me a waste of time for most folks.

Good luck....

What the heck is the P-51D object supposed to be?

I just downloaded and installed the TE, but the only Mustang in my list is P51B. Seems all the other A/C are there as well.



BTW.. Wildthing.. you should be ashamed to have posted such an abomination to the Mustang.
