• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

FSX Modifying Virtavia CH-46

With permission, I have begun the first of several modifications to Virtavia's FSX CH-46. I eventually want to offer several versions to reflect the minor changes between different models of he BV-107 (UH/CH-46 A/C/D/E/F, etc.) and the several KV-107 variants. I initially removed many later add-ons for a cleaner aircraft, and have added the sponson tip-tanks used on some of the KV models.

I created a dae file using MCX and imported it to Blender (4.2). I exported the modified file as a dea back into MCX.
My intention was to texture the tanks (and other future mods) outside of Blender.

I have obviously missed doing something rather basic since a) the tanks show with the cockpit texturing, and b) I don't know how to create an unwrapped texture of the tanks to be used with a paintkit that includes the current texture files.

Any nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.

Thank you,
PhrogPhlyer
