Title: Skin Viewer
Post by: Puck on April 11, 2007, 11:01:09 PM

Keeps telling me there's no viewable information in all those .res files.  Can't convinve it to load my 148 layer (and still counting) F4U either.

Me or the patch?

I had an issue with this ... did you place a folder in the skins directory that has a name of the plane type plus a squential number?  For instance i had to put my .bmp files in a folder named P38G_10 before I could view them.  

Also make sure you have them saved as a 1024 x 1024 256 color bit map.

Yes, yes, yes, and yes.  Skin viewer still works great on the machine that hasn't been patched.  Can't get the one on the patched machine to show anything.
