Anomaly in repaint Cougar

***Cees Donker*** · January 27th, 2020, 12:15

I discovered an anomaly in a repaint of the Cougar twoseater!
I can't figure out how to solve it. A pity 'cause there are but a handful repaints.

This represents an F9F-8T assigned to H&MS-13 in Chu Lai RSVN circa 1966. This was the only variant of the Cougar to see combat.
By John Detrick. Ideas anyone?

I never noticed it before. I just booted it up and there it is.

Possibly it's a dds format image [or not, but needs to be] as they are inverted...so the model maps the wrong bit of the image...

That's not it. It must be something in the mapping of the texture that has gone wrong. I am searching for the place where the inside of the cockpitframe is placed.

I think the problem is with "Cougar fuselage.dds".
looks like something was washed away in the repaint.
If you compare it with the original you will find the difference.

Is it supposed to be a rear view mirror ??

I found the omission! It's in both repaints. Sorry John! I love the work you did on these nonetheless!
These Cougars deserve a lot more repaints than they've got.
