I'm making a NS OCS F7a and F7b (yes, they have those). However, i am stuck: I cant find a way to shrink the NS logo onto the unit size. Thanks!

If you don't have it get Paint.net. D/L the logo, open it in the program and re-size it to whatever size you need and then paste it onto your model.

If you're using Photoshop, use Free Transform to resize the image.

uh, oh. Ran across a little problem: I cannot find the logo for the front of the unit (The horse by itself)! If anyone can give it to me or show me a download link, it would be most appreciated. *!!thnx!!*

Do you have DXTBmp program? It's the easiest way to put alphas onto BMPs.

Missing Geo or the bin file isn't pointed at the right texture.
