Using PSP X6 and Win 7. Wonder if someone could help me finish this project. http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/attachment.php?attachmentid=37828&stc=1http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/attachment.php?attachmentid=37829&stc=1As you can tell, on the second *rib* or whatever it's called, toward the back you see a light blue paint. That comes from the bottom wind. But I don't see anything resembling the ribs on the *wing texture* page. How can I get these ribs painted green like the top wings are? First time ever trying to paint. Appreciate any help.

Am I correct in assuming that you are looking for the area of mapping where the those structures are??
If so, there is a way to find it... You can do a texture exactly the same size as the one you show...
preferably in yellow... divide it in to maybe 100 squares... each numbered with a black digit starting at top left.
Then, you replace the texture in question with this one.... voila'... The aircraft in the sim will show each
little numbered square in the areas covered by the actual wing texture...thus you can individualize where
those structures are mapped... The more squares in the test texture.. (i.e: smaller squares) the more you pinpoint where the
areas are mapped...

There is a texture sheet called the PanelFinder that comes in real handy for this kind of stuff.

You can get it here- http://www.logtnest.nl/downloads/tools/

Or make your own.

cheers,
Lane

Mr Blood_Hawk, the download is Mikoyan-Gourevitch MiG-15 Bis Fagot.zip from Fly Away Simulation. This download is a flyable; but I converted it to a AI. Using FSX. Appreciate your help.

It would seem that the fly away simulations site is down. Check your PMs.

That was my think a few days ago. I should have chimed in but forgot about it. Sorry.
