December 10, 201213 yr I've got an aircraft I bought a few months ago that I really enjoy, but have been unable to find any repaints available. I bought FSRepaint last night (on sale at PCAviator for $20) and decided I was finally going to learn how to do repaints. I'm using it with PS CS6, and its been going quite well so far! Anyhow, this aircraft that I'm fond of has a repaint kit available from the publishers website. The catch is, you have to own it to get the paint kit. Furthermore, according to their records I don't own this add-on, so I've been blocked from downloading it. I just sent the publisher an email with my order details at the vendor I published from, so I do expect this to be corrected soon. But now I'm wondering, is this why I can't find ANY repaints? Is this typical of other publishers to require that you own the add-on to get a paint kit? Seems to me like you would want as many different liveries as possible to attract more buyers, because honestly, the default paints are not very good.
December 10, 201213 yr I would think you would need the add-on anyway in order for the paint kit to be any use, as once you paint an aircraft, you would then need to load it in the simulator, look at it, and make any adjustments as necessary.

December 10, 201213 yr Author that makes sense. i'm literally less than 24hrs into learning how to do repaints, so i'm not able to think it that far through! thanks
December 10, 201213 yr Author what craft are you trying or wanting to paint??? Just curious. pm'd it to you
