I used two lengths of ST-13 (7" and 11") in the attached RockSim 8 file to approximate the masking scheme, but I seem to have difficulties with the decal, which should appear as "Thunder" on the red, with "Auk" appearing on the white.


After wrestling with RockSim 8.0.1 r12 for an hour tonight, here's the outcome.

Dang, that Texture Mapping feature (?) is *less* than user friendly!
