GSX PaintKit released!

[apoorvpal]

Apologies for that. I saw that all different types of caterers are working fine with any airplane right now. I will post the rest of the snippets here then. Also, when I exported the custom passenger bus texture, whenever I save it as DXT1 or DXT5, it always has some mismatched parts. I will post screenshots below too. I am completely new to this so sorry if my questions are too easy to answer.

Here are the pictures for the texture issue:

What I made:


What I got after saving:

Code:

[fltsim.0]
title=FSDT_Staircase_large_USER_FSDT
model=
texture=FSDT
couatl.icaoprefixes = VOBL

Code:

[fltsim.0]
title=FSDT_Staircase_01_USER_FSDT
model=01
texture=FSDT
couatl.icaoprefixes = VOBL

Code:

[fltsim.0]
title=FSDT_Van_Passengers_USER_FSDT
model=01
texture=FSDT
couatl.icaoprefixes = VOBL

Code:

[fltsim.0]
title=FSDT_PassengerBus_USER_GlobeGroundIndia
model=
texture=fsdt
couatl.icaoprefixes = VOBL

[fltsim.1]
title=FSDT_PassengerShuttle_USER_GlobeGroundIndia
model=shuttle
texture=shuttle_fsdt
couatl.icaoprefixes = VOBL

This is really something outside of GSX support, because it seems like a problem of the product you used to export or how you converted the texture for editing. I'd say the correct procedure should be:

- open the default GSX_Bus.DDS in Imagetool

- Save it as .TGA

- Edit it with a graphic program and save it as .TGA

- Open the .TGA in Imagetool

- Switch to .DDS format

- Create Mipmaps

- Save as .DDS

I am using DXTBmp and have made textures for other aircraft using this. Anyways I am also using Gimp for editing so which format should I normally export the Bitmap to
1) X8 R8G8B8 32-bit this adds a blue tint over it
2) A8 R8G8B8 32-bit this adds a yellow tint over it
3) R8G8B8 24-bit colour is fine and no tint but when I save it as this, the issue mentioned in the above post occurs.

Sorry if it not related to GSX, just thought someone here who might have used it could help me out.

Anyways, ignoring that texture issue, it should still load with these textures right, let the colour be wrong or whatever. Is there an error in my cfg code then? I tried to diagnose it myself but couldn't find any. Just look at the snippets and tell me if something's wrong please.

I see all your repaints are still calling the fsdt textures.

[apoorvpal]

Yes but that's only because I placed my textures in the same folders as the fsdt ones. It is just a matter of renaming them I guess.

[apoorvpal]

I got the texture sorted out and I changed all the folder names and texture names to a custom one. No more fsdt folders/textures. But still I am unable to see my custom bus at the airport. Please help.

Code:

[fltsim.0]
title=FSDT_PassengerBus_USER_GlobeGroundIndia
model=
texture=GlobeGroundIndia
couatl.icaoprefixes = VOBL VOBG

Is my code wrong somewhere? And in the couatl.atc_parking_codes, can I enter some airline ICAO codes or should I enter the name of the caterer?
