• 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.

I finally got my first repaint in fsx it looks great in photoshop but the quality is really bad in fsx and i don't know what am i doing wrong i used the dds converter to convert the textures and then i tried DXT converter to see if it is any different and i played around with the formats and quality but i couldn't find the solution.

the image shows the quality difference.

Hi,

Does the texture become sharper as you get closer? In your screenshot I think it does not look too bad for the distance you are viewing from. Also be aware that the compression to DDS will always result in a little loss of quality, but for most textures that is not really noticeable.
 
no arno it does not get sharper the closer you get. also i the over repaints that i have download have much more better quality and are much more sharper

Did you make your textures the same size as those other repaints (or the same size as the original textures of the aircraft)?
 
not sure what u mean. but i used the repaint kit and used up all the space if that answer's your question and i didn't enlarge the image, (also i saved it as a psd and 32 bit then took it to dds converter and converted it, i am not sure waht i am doing)

oh yea forgot to tell you i am using tom's airbus a340
