March 5, 200917 yr Author Please see:http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?showtopic=241189 Nice to read this posts there, but no usable information in that. Anyway thanks for you kind reply... :-)BestSteffen Steffen Rabenau, Berlin, Germany / stevens-va.de
March 5, 200917 yr Steffen,actually you can use the FSX paintkit. I wonder why everybody is in need of the FS9 paintkit. I have laready done a repaint for the MD-11 in FS2004 using the FSX paintkit and it works perfectly.Unless I am missing something important, I can only recommend to use the FSX paintkit too.Christian Christian Mohr

My concen is that we will loose some quality due to the converting processes from DDS to BMp and so on. But I will give it a try. Thanks !!Steffen Steffen Rabenau, Berlin, Germany / stevens-va.de
March 5, 200917 yr Steffen,there's no need to convert anyhting from DDS to BMP. The paintkit comes with normal PSD files. If you convert these with i.e. imagetool to normal DXT3 bitmaps you should be fine. The rest of the textures can be taken from other FS9 repaints.I haven't checked if 32bit bitmaps work fine too. But I can't iamgine why not? :)Christian Christian Mohr
