Cataloging some skins I ran across a duplicate skin but with different materials.txt properties applied to it.
109g14_10, named "9./JG300 by DutchGuy"
and
109g14_13, named "9./JG300 by DutchGuy"
One seems to be crisper along the wing leading edge and the other duller, which makes me think the only difference is how the materials.txt file is applied.
This is also noted on the skins download page. You will see 2 of the same name in the hangar.
Tested offline. Just a heads-up.

I'll take a look. Appreciate it. This is one of the problems with the current system. It allows duplicates via the submitter not using the skin reference number and re-submitting a skin or submitting an update as a new one. We do depend on the skinner keeping track of the reference number.
If I have to manually verify every skin submission, then it could add weeks to an already cumbersome and lengthy process. Any help in this area is appreciated.

Just for my own info: There's no problem resubmitting a skin as long as you have that reference number, right?
-
Correct. The reference number is how they are cataloged here and is the only common bit of data between the skinner and HTC.

Looks like thats the case here. There are subtle differances between the two skins.

Looked like a subtle materials.txt change. So he resubmitted it but didn't have the ref#, and it got added as a new one, maybe?
Just a thought. I'm sure Skuzzy will figure it out and remove the extra.
