i'd like to change the ugly wheels of the p51 and of the ju88 with a better ones, I was thinking about the p47 wheels (I have some skins somebody posted some time ago 4 them) for the p51 and something like the lancaster wheels for the "yummy" wheels of the 88...
I have open plane, but have no clue how to use it to make this change(actually i've never used it... ): would somebody be so patient to exlplain me the way it should be done?

What did you want to change ? Only the textures (easy) or the model too ?

LOL ! A MASTA ! Remember some months ago I was an ABSOLUTE BEGINNER !

Changing the model - I would only change the highest detail lod and keep the rest - you need AC3D or any prg that can export .obj format or .vrml - if you run into problems with this search the forum or ask again !

Textures - P51 - Lucky one ! The P51 has its own tire-texture named tires1.tif, so all you need to do is to make a new 64x64 texture in any paint-prg. No remapping needed (except the new lod(s)). If you need the old one and wont unbig the datax.par files, just mail me. Put this new texture (name it tires1.tif !) into a texture folder inside the P51 folder....

If you want the wheels off of the jug, then you will have to grab the second tiff (forgot what it was called) and snip them off of the texture and then re-texture map the wheels off of the p51. Paste the P47 wheels onto this texture, then use it in OPS.

If you want real P51 wheels, then find a model and scan the wheels off of it. Thats what I did for the Jug. You just need to color them if they aren't painted already.
