as I really miss the ship material of argon ships in x3, I tried to apply various paint jobs. The only one which comes close is "J.B.C." as long as you are in Argon Prime, but it does have totally different colors in other sectors:

So I thought about making an own paint job, but I do simply not understand how they work. I unpacked a few paint job mods which do replace the default paint jobs to learn from them. It seems as paint jobs do have a texture and a pattern. Additional there are different values defined in the paintmods.xml file:
Code: Select all
<replace sel="/paintmods/paint[@ware='paintmod_0006']"><paint ware="paintmod_0006" quality="1" hue="0" brightness="-1" saturation="1" metal="-1" smooth="-1" dirt="-1" extradirt="-1" pattern="extensions\aeongm\assets\textures\patterns\aeongt" strength="1" scale="1" sharpness="100" invert="0" red="024" green="036" blue="048" alpha="255"/></replace>
<replace sel="/paintmods/paint[@ware='paintmod_0048']"><paint ware="paintmod_0048" quality="1" hue="0" brightness="1" saturation="1" metal="-1" smooth="-1" dirt="-1" extradirt="-1" pattern="extensions\aeongm\assets\textures\patterns\aeongt" strength="1" scale="1" sharpness="100" invert="0" red="032" green="032" blue="032" alpha="255"/></replace>
I would appreciate any help, thank you in advance!
