Title: basic question
Post by: Raphael on January 06, 2012, 02:48:50 PM

 :o ok this might be something obvious that I am missing.
I am using High res and textures set up to 2000ish
the plane I want to skin gives me a smaller image to work with unlike other planes that will give me a bigger 1024 image to work... how do I make a 1024 skin for that 512 default skin airplane?

First, when you export the default skin from the game, you need to have the hires texture pack installed and set the "Maximum Texture Size" in the games "Video Settings" to 2048.

There are no models in the game using 512x512 bitmaps. They only dump that size if you have the "Maximum Texture Size" set to 512 in the games "Video Settings".
