No problem Serpiko 
The camo patterns for MARPAT are tough enough to get onto a skin with somewhat logical mapping. The P38 has to be one of the toughest to work with as the mapping of the textures on the 3D model is absurd! Duplicated and mirrored sections all over that bugger...it's a nightmare to work with sometimes. I'd hoped that one of the talented 3D modelers in the mods community would have pitty on us skinner folk and tinker with all those nasty settings :wink: I understand that it would be like reinventing the wheel, so that's why I've never really commented on it before on the public boards...just privately questioning (and sometimes cursing) the sanity of Oleg's 3D modelers :lol: If you take some time and tinker with the template a bit more, you'll find solutions to all those joint area issues...and you'll be very happy/satisfied/proud of the work you've accomplished. Not to many skinners mess with the P38 for the exact reasons I stated above...really, hats off to you for taking on the Mt Everest of skinning :mrgreen:
@ Fireskull - Cheers buddy! Most of our individual work is up at M4T, and we all just said to each other why not combine forces...hence A & A was born last year. It just made sense to have a "Skinners Team" the same way that there are "Modding Teams". Once we figured out exactly what we wanted to do with it, we slowly started chipping away at completing skin packs and adding to our library. Hopefully, we can get this next installment of the PTO packs buttoned up in the next week or so...P38s and A6Ms...Icons of the Pacific.
Cheers,
KC
