I'm a big fan of the AFG Beech Super King Air, and I wanted to repainted it. I got their paint kit, and I opened the DXTbmp, and made the actual livery with Paint.NET. I made the livery,saved it with DXTbmp and I decided to check it out. I ran FS9, and found my plane with all sorts of images that were on the bmp that I repainted. Also, the other side of the plane was backwards. I never actually did do something to the images. I just repainted and saved it as a DXT3 file, with the MipMaps not included. I retried several different ways, no luck. Any thoughts on this peculiar (for me anyway) situation?

Depends on the paint kit and to some extent how the original model was textured when it was created. Some paint kits are just one texture that you paint and then divide up onto the various bitmaps in the texture folder, others are all in one. sometimes the textures have to be flipped vertically or horizontally, since they are often merely the right wat around in the paint kit to enable you to do your livery easily, but then you have to flip them because of the way FS maps the texture. Often the texture on one side will be a simply mirror of the texture on the other side.what you will have to do is look for an original texture that came with the plane and then open those textures up in DXT.BMP to see exactly what is on them, when you know that, you will know what to do with the paint kit.Al
