Hi Guys

I would like to congrat for the great model and paints.. just a quick question.. the FSX light map looks like they are actually FS9. Or am i missing something and the model shows correctly the FS9 looking light map.

I use a technique which allows the use of FS9 style light maps in FSX.
just make sure to remove the correct windows (if needed) and save a separate 2048X2048 version for FSX(DXT5) and a 1024X1024 version for FS9(DXT3).
