Blackbird Sims / Milviz Forum Archive

I've done many repaint installs in the past, but recent attempts have failed.
In the past I simply copied / pasted the texture files to the main AC folder, then coped / pasted the read me files into the aircraft .CFG, numbering sequentially, successfully

I've provided the repaint texture files for the AC repaints I'm trying to install. Everything in aircraft .CFG seem to be as the previous installed files, so I thought the problem might in the repaint texture file edit.

This is the JASDF. I edited the first line, to no avail!

Milviz F-15E Texture .65.480 (Agressor)

Help would be appreciated.

Please post the aircraft cfg, and a screenshot of the F-15E folder with the textures you are trying to install highlighted

JASDF is the one. Not sure how to do screenshot.

Get the folder on screen, press Print Screen on your keyboard. Open an image editor like Gimp or Photoshop, press Ctrl V on your keyboard to paste the image in, and then do the edits as needed for highlighting the folders. Save the file as a png and post.

no image editor, and not clear on editing

tried note pad. no go! Have "FN" key "print screen" in amber. tried your suggestions, but no result. Only editor is note pad.

Try MS Paint.

did program search = nothing

tried to copy/paste but wont transfer to this page

got it into desktop folder

I haven't reattempted the aggressor paints since I reinstalled F-15E. Want to get the JASDF successfully installed and use that for a guide to do aggressors. Sorry, 'mI not very helpful. Will try to search MS Paint and DL

found "paint" in program search

Failed at "copy/paste to "paint", Print screen" also

Now upload to a image hosting site and post here.

now can't open aircraft cfg. "not a valid bitmap". Will uninstall F-15E. Way to much time wasted. tyvm Jonathan

Now I can't even open AC cfg (paint) "not a valid file"

Will uninstall F-15E. To much time spent. How do I delete ALL ordinance. Manual?

WTH? I used installer to uninstall but F-15E still in AC selection!

TYVM Jonathan

Patience. I'm here to help you. For now, delete the Milviz F-15E folder from your airplanes folder, as well as the MILVIZ- objects in the same location. Then re-install.

It seems (I'm guessing English is not your native language) there was some misunderstanding of my instructions regarding the screenshot. I thought you managed to get a picture but it seems you tried to open the aircraft cfg in Microsoft paint instead?

Sorry Jonathan, I didn't see the 2nd page, and thought you were washing your hands of this. I'd like to continue at your convenience. Also, contacted RD1 for input.

"English", yes. I failed to get picture. I know your here to help. Very much appreciated. I'm following your instructions atm.

Reinstalled. Took her up for a few hours of familiarization and manual review. "She's" beautiful. Would love to see F-15E updated. So much potential.
