Reskinning the Pendolino.

[Taintedz]

I couldn't find a forum specifically for reskinning, and I am something of a beginner, so I assumed to post here, tell me if I'm wrong.

So far my Pendolino reskin has been coming along great, however, I have noticed that if text/logos are placed on one side of the train, then they are mirrored on the other side, though you don't see this in Photoshop. This means that when you look at one side of the train, the logos and text appear fine, but on the other side they have been mirrored, and so the text is the wrong way round.

Does anyone with experience with reskinning have a solution?

Many thanks in advance.

This is common and happens on a few add-ons, Mk2e's by DT and the Default HST Buffet coach. Drop David Hossack a PM, as I think he sorted it once or twice

Ah, I see. I'll drop him a PM. Thanks for the fast reply Rich.

I'm quite familiar with reskinning in FSX I'm not sure if the texture folder contains textures for both sides but a common problem for me used to be the text, it was mirrored when the same textue is used for both sides, the solution for me was to find the side the text is mirrored on and edit the mapping in photoshop (or another image editor) and make sure that any text is reversed. So in the game the effect is reversed and the text appears the correct way around.

Hope this helps!
