Repaint Question

Recommended Posts

How can you interpret no to mean yes. And it is 2017 not 2009. This is from Jim Young's message to me yesterday afternoon - "No.  Airliners.net specifically told us not to do it and we will remove any link to Airliners.net.  See our copyright policy under Rules and Policies."

Quite simply because they never bothered to have the rules to reflect that a link was not permissible. If that is their intention they need to update the rules not expect a non-moderator (you) dictate what the rules are.  Not everyone here is aware of a post made 8 years ago. It's ludicrous to expect people to be aware of it.

There is no rule in place in any publicly visible ruleset that forbids links to airliners.net site.

Posting pictures is generally prohibited under the copyright rule, and such could be possibly extended to posting links to pictures themselves.

In absence of any further evidence, I'm gonna have to say that either you misinterpreted Jims answer, or he misinterpreted your question.

I copied and pasted what he wrote. You guys can put your own spin on it. How you spin no, I don't have any idea.

Assuming you're referring to ZK-SUH, if you know anything about repainting, all you have to do is go in the aircraft.cfg, locate the entry for that plane, switch out the model and sounds to alias it to the General Electric variant rather than the Rolls-Royce variant, and then replace the engine texture.

Replace the engine texture with what Kevin ?

There's a blank engine texture in the paint kit. The engine textures use the same name for all variants, so you'd have to paint up an engine if it isn't a blank white engine, then replace the engine texture that's already in the aircraft's texture folder with the new engine texture.
