Pretty sure this is covered in tutorials already. Search or google for it. Short version: 1) Find out what textures are used by the Mustang by checking all the mustangs' standardmesh shader files (not the one with *.sm, the ones with *.rs). These can be opened with any text editor, there you'll find some lines pointing to texture/balblabla.dds 2) Unpack the specified files from the texture.rfa (probably will be called something like "mustang" or "p51". Probably) 3) Open the files with Photoshop/GIMP and edit them. 4) Save them in the correct format (usually DXT3 with all MipMaps for 3D textures, no mipmaps for "flat" textures like interface and HUD stuff). Check the filesize before/after to be sure you got it right 5) Pack things up in a texture_00*.rfa and check out your plane. To edit DDS files you obviously need the nvidia dds plugins first. Google it. |

Google nvidia DDS converter all you have to do is "if you don't have photoshop" get it if you have never used photoshop I recommend PSE its much more user friendly than CS3 and then simply draw over your picture in the appropriate areas. |
