It seems like the Pe-8 is a forgotten plane in Il-2. There isn't much in the way of skins for what otherwise be a welcome addition to early war bombers.
Nor does there seem to be a template available anywhere either.
A bit ambitious perhaps, but I thought to give making a new, larger sized template in 1024x1024 a go, since all the skins I've found so far for the Pe-8 are in 512x512.
Anyway, I started with some layers to give it a try, but it seems that skins in 1024x1024 won't load for the Pe-8.
Now I know that for other planes, skins in both sizes load (though of course 512x512 skins are low in detail so who would now bother with them).
So my question is: can the Pe-8 only load 512x512 skins? Or can it take a larger more detailed 1024x1024 skin as well?
And if so, how does it work?
