The next guy would probably know much better than me about the matter anyhow in terms of how to make them. I just thought it would be a neat and unique thing to have on top of the cake.

I will continue to see what can be done about the weathered textures, but i understand that in general, the HUD is the most important item on topic.

Just curious, what do you mean by speaking 'weathered textures'? The ones that dynamically change during aircraft's life? Or the ones that are representing a weary and dirty aircraft? AFAIK, the former are gonna be first implemented in Storm of War series, but in FSX there are just 'static' textures. The latter is easy, just a matter of some artistic abilities and time...

I took it he meant the latter, but now that you mention it, it would make a lot more sense if he was talking about the former, since pre-weathered textures are easy (assuming you're good with graphics, unlike me).

fsxnavypilot,
By weathered, I mean how the aircraft over its time of life being used gets to appear dirty, making it look like it's been around a significant period of time, not like the default where it looks brand new out of the factory.

I want something close to this effect: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/89/Spanish_Air_Force_EF-18_DD-SD-00-02833.JPEG
Something like this is a bit much, but brings the overall point across.

There are two guys at fsxblueangels website - 'wingmate' and 'svicar' - who are really good at textures and liveries for the Hornet. They have made some of the best I've seen. You can send them a pm or just post a thread about the 'weathered textures'...
