Bug description: Interior registration decal does not render correctly in SU4. Exterior decal works correctly but interior one does not. In the stable SU3 both render as expected. See below. It is the rectangle located at the right of the tablet and to the left of the RMI below the placard. Material configuration for registration decal remains unmodified.
I kindly ask you guys to review this issue.
Repro steps:
Load any aircraft where it contains a registration decal in the virtual cockpit on both SU4 beta and SU3 stable, and you should see the decal completely black.

Okay, I was able to send there. I do not know if it was a bug or what but at first I had that error coming up on me. Please check if you guys received the PM there. I look forward to any updates.
Thank you guys once again for your quick response and collaboration!

Actually, I already found the issue. Thanks BTW for letting me know it works for you, Raul (@SimbolFSReborn). Please apologies for the off-topic here, but your Phenom looks fantastic! Great job and wishing you a wonderful success with it!
Now back to the topic. The issue was because I declared the [VPainting] section on the Common panel.cfg, which worked fine for me on SU3, but when stepping into SU4, the decal was completely black. A few moments ago, I moved the corresponding [VPainting] section to the Attachment panel.cfg, and now it worked like a charm for me. However, I’m still trying to understand why the interior decal worked for me on the Common panel.cfg before but now it doesn’t , but the exterior one works on both SU3 and SU4, declared on the Common panel.cfg rather than the Attachment one.

Ahh yes, my [Vpainting] has been always inside the panel folder corresponding to the part that has it.. Always did it like that from the start, I guess that’s why it works.
I declared both on the common panel.cfg, because I’m working on 4 variants of the same aircraft, the one below, and since both VPainting declarations are common between each, this made sense for me from the beginning. Below are some shots:
The exterior registration decal, declared on the common panel.cfg. Works fine for me
Anyway, I guess I’ll leave the interior VPainting on the attachment panel.cfg while the bug from the common panel.cfg is fixed, unless this is by design in the sim, in which case Boris would let me know after reviewing the issue.
Thank you for your advice Raul!

Succesfully tested on the current SU5 beta build (1.7.6.0). Registration decal declared on common panel.cfg and the registration decal correctly rendered as expected. See the screenshots below:
I tested temporarily on the beta and with a copy of the current package, because I am finishing the product subject of this thread, and since I cannot wait so long until SU5 is released (unless it gets released next month, God willing, if all goes well), I tested and returned back to the stable build. However, I will re-add the declaration on the common panel.cfg once SU5 is publicly released.
You guys are the best! Thank you so, so much for your hard work, and congrats for the numerous fixes and improvements made to 2024 so far!
God bless you! Cheers!
