Hmmm, so far I haven't even managed to get it working. Sounds like I won't bother.... :-(

I don't have the Viscount loaded so I can't check but looking at the CFG title of Vickers Viscount 700 I doubt if that is unique so that would stop the paint showing.

Yep, that was it. Plus the name of the texture folder disagreed with the texture entry in aircraft.cfg.

Apart from that, perfect!

There are some pictures showing VR-HFI with the slipper tanks at http://www.vickersviscount.net.

These include one in colour which shows that it certainly wasn't a red stripe livery.

Cheers.

That's right John

It was a BOAC based livery always blue and they had slipper tanks throughout their time with HK

The is a colour pic on A.net as well..................there was HK flag on the nose as well......impossible to reproduce.
