PMDG 737NGX Livery Availability

Recommended Posts

From what Chris says the 600-700 paintkit is not usable has issues maybe Chris could elaborate. Actually the only paintkit that works right now is the 800 - 900 does not work after sp1 - probablly something to do with the model but anyway you look at it painting a 900 would be a waste of time right now.

Hmm..I haven't tinkered with the 800/900 kit again. I wonder what changed....Seems like some of the tiny misaligments I could never get rid on my 800s are now mostly fixed after the SP.I submitted a support ticket for the new paint kits. They updated the windows and doors in the fuse_master file but that's about all. The paint guides (that show you where to split text/logos) are still the -800 version. And then, when you start pasting sections into the individual fuse files (fuse 1,2 & 3) the alpha channel windows are completely out of alignment and seem to be the original -800/900 psd files.I've made myself a corrected set of Fuse files, but without the paint guide, I can't finish the repaint. I'm working on the 700 version of my blue and white air force jet which has "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" spanning the fuselage and I can't split it up across the gaps until the paint guide is corrected.

Since this isn't pinned anymore, I guess I'll try and keep it at the top by request a Delta liver for the -700. Not in a rush at all.
Seconded. I'm assuming PMDG has a house DAL livery in the works, can't wait to start flying it.

haha!!! I can't do that in my dreams.
I could manage the rest of it, but that bear is probably beyond my means to reproduce. I am hoping to do several Southwest liveries. They're the airline I've probably traveled the most on, and my first ever commercial flight was on an old WN -200, so they have a special place in my heart. I was already thinking of doing a -700 version of Shamu. There's nothing like seeing that thing fly over your house.
I wonder, if PMDG used a different paintkit for the few 600/700 liveries.Thinking.gif
They definitely don't use the same ones they released yesterday! I've given up trying to fix them myself. Waiting to hear from PMDG.

I hope to see all of the Southwest Airlines state liveries one day. I know some of them are intricate, but there are some great painters out there, both at PMDG and not. I second California One from Southwest... it's a great paint job.Joshua Smith

On the topic of SWA schemes, would love to see both a Lonestar One and Illinois One...I know the latter is a very challenging paint, but I can hope.

Lonestar seems very doable. Anything with basic lines and cures I'll be able to reproduce, but things like the bear or The Alaska airlines fish, I wouldn't have a clue how to reproduce that. Jedi Repaint Master Marcelo may know how.

Great, I'm glad 2 read that the Southwest special liveries will be painted. :) They're all looking great and they're the most important reason why I'll buy the -700 package. Just 4 flying with Southwest. :)I guess you guys did some flights with the pre-SP1 liveries. I've read that no problems should appear? But what is with the new options from the CDU? Will there be any problems?
