I just added some repaints from various artist and some work and some don't

They all seem to load the textures but some of the details such as the wheels are missing.
I did not see any notes in the readme about moving other textures into the new folders.

There are several differences in the config entry to be pasted to the config.
Some say
ui_createdby="Shockwave Productions Inc."

or ui_manufacturer=Curtiss

some have no entry under
model=

some have
sim=Tomahawk_IIB


These are the differences I see from the original ones. Half of them I have no idea what they do
they may be the problem or it may be I need to move some original textures to the new folders.
The wheel textures that are missing I would be part of the fallback.

any ideas?

Try taking a look at how the default paints have that info entered. If you know which model the repaint depicts, you can check to see if the proper data has been entered in the cfg to call up the correct model. The P-40 has a common folder for all models so the cfg itself is where the paint finds its correct model to use. Are these repaints all for the WoP3 version or are some for the WoP2 version?

Doh!, right you are sir, they were for the previous version.
Thanks

I have a few paints for the WOP-2 added to my WOP-3 P-40.
I had to make a couple of changes to the CFG for them, in order for them to work.
These are.

ui_manufacturer=A2A curtis

ui_createdby="A2A Simulations inc"
