1. The anomaly on the left upper doesn't seem to affect the paint so far. No repair required.
This is due to mapping the flaps and wings together. It should be fine. Should have mapped them separately.
2.The one on the right upper is a major problem. It shows up as an untextured spot (white). see the pic.
Easy fix, will correct and send model update.
3. The main wheel wells are untextured?. When looking up, you see right through the aircraft to the sky. When I checked the other models, they aren't this way(the wells are black).
The inner walls are not there; will include in the model update to you.
4. I haven't painted the intake lips yet. I need to know if those parts are mapped for reflectivity or transparency when alpha channels are used. If they are set for transparency, I'll need them set for reflective so they can have metallic shine. edit: PLEASE DISREGARD THIS! Just checked pictures and they are always black.
5. I do need to know where the prop spinners are mapped. These are also black on the military Turbo Trackers!
The spinners are mapped to chromespinner_t.bmp
As the dash 3 paint kit works for all but the nacelles, I intend to only do new paint kit PSD templates for those. Todd Disrud's paint kit can't really be improved upon, at least not by me. My only wish is that they were released in 2048 x 2048 instead of 1024 x 1024. Otherwise they are great!
