And then, I might look like this.........................

Interesting idea, I like it and surely would like to do the job. BUT, making a paint based on an blank paintkit is fine , editing and reworking an existing livery is something completely different. Maybe you should find out, LES has objections or not, first. Leen

File Name: Morane Saulnier MS 893A Rallye - French Marine File Submitter: Leen de Jager File Submitted: 31 May 2013 File Category: General Aviation X-Plane Version(s): X-Plane 9 & 10 Livery For: Click Here For Aircraft Repaint and visual upgrade for the Morane Saulnier MS 893A Rallye . This fine freeware ( XP10 version) ) model is available at the XPFR website. How to implement this French Marine livery: First make sure you have downloaded and installed the original plane. If you did you have a folder named MS893A_Rallye_v10 in the General Aviation folder. Unzip this skin-download Rallye Marine.zip into a temp folder. Now you`ll find a folder named MS893A_Rallye_v10 (likewise the one you already have) Just place the folder MS893A_Rallye_v10 into the General Aviation folder overwriting the existing folder/files. Thats all , you`re ready now. What happened: A: A liveries folder has been created with the Rallye Marine livery in it. If you already had a liveries folder the Rallye Marine has just been added. B: Normalmapping has been added to the default model and other liveries . Enjoy Leen "Flybike" de Jager http://www.flybike-paints.nl Click here to download this file

File Name: Piper Tomahawk Breitling File Submitter: Leen de Jager File Submitted: 31 May 2013 File Category: General Aviation X-Plane Version(s): X-Plane 9 & 10 Livery For: Click Here For Aircraft This is a livery-paint for the Piper Tomahawk ( model for X-Plane made by AWALL86.) X-Plane 9 >> Download the original model by AWALL86 here :http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php? app=downloads&showfile=11697 I deeply fell in love with this lovely bird , Painting it has its limitations , nevertheless this was really a challenge , doing some almost impossible paint-things. This skin depicts the original within the limitations of this model as far as I was able to do. This set includes normalfiles with speculars for plane , interior and pilot. It also includes a customised walnut-panel ( for the 3D cockpit-panel only). Doing research for this project , I met Charlotte Forrestier , the lovely Swiss lady-pilot. How tow make a nice looking woman from an ugly male pilot ? Never ever expected to do that kind of job Well ..... please meet Charlotte !!! If you do not already have this model, begin downloading and installing it. Building-in this livery: Unzip this upload to a temp. folder. Copy the folder named Piper Tomahawk Breitling from this download into the LIVERIES-folder of the airplane.. Copy the files named obj3.obj and obj3_NML.png into the main OBJECTS-folder. Placing these two files here will have NO influence on the existing liveries. They will only enhance the beauty of Charlotte Forrestier , our female pilot for the Breitling Tomahawk.

I would prefer to ask permission anyway. Converting and/or publishing work others made cannot be done without permission of the original author. Always ask permission first and refer to this permission in the credits. I think it nice and polite to ask. Leen de Jager

Ohh yes I certainly agree, nothing wrong with that. Nevertheless I am not the "guessing-type" and seeing those great shots I could not hold my tongue.

The post quoted above , starts a two page conversation. A conversation about what? For me just a conversation about.............the fact there is not any new news.. Forgive me for making some small comments. Michael_Chang showed us a stunning NGX painted by McPhat and X-PlaneAustralia showd us one stating thes planes will even show better in X-Plane. I must disappoint you ,reality is a bit different. McPhat-paints for the PMDG NGX are no more avaiable due to copy-right-issues. Seen in that light its not very likely to see McPhat produce their extreme quality for PMDG planes in X-Plane in future. Till this moment the quality of paintwork for X-Plane is limited, the best results still can be achieved in FSX these days. I am confident future will change that, in time.

The size at this stage ( wich you`re looking at) is 2048x2048. In fact thats history now, this moment the project has moved to 4096x4096 wich is the limit for X-Plane till now. 8192x8192 is not possible in X-Plane (yet). I can assure you 8196 is really incredible in a sim , its shows scratches on rivets.(question is , do we need that?) Sounds like a fairy , in fact I did it on an experimental paint for FlyLegacy a year ago. I`ll show you a more recent screen tomorrow.

Thanks for the compliment. I am working on it , its not finished yet.

File Name: King Air Glass Enhancement File Submitter: Leen de Jager File Submitted: 21 Mar 2013 File Category: General Aviation X-Plane Version(s): X-Plane 9 & 10 Till now , the cockpit and cabinwindows seen from outside always have been invisible. Just holes to look though , without any "glass" to be seen. In the latest version X-Plane 10.20 (build 102014)adding some realness to the glass failed again. I did not want to wait any longer. Just place the contents of the objects folder from this downlaod in the main objects folder of the King Air. A backup for the default files is included. I am confident you`ll never want to use these back-up files. Enjoy Leen "Flybike" de Jager Click here to download this file

I have no idea which plane I should buy. I really think you have to make some kind of choice to start with. Are you "in" for airliners , GA or fighters? Buying scenery is consuming much money and diskspace. My advise , just buy the scenery you really cannot live without and use freeware as much as possible.

I am a happy Win 8 user for several months now. Internet Explorer does NOT give me any problems with the X-Aviation page.

File Name: Polish Border Guard livery for PZL M20 "Mewa" (Seneca) File Submitter: Leen de Jager File Submitted: 18 Jan 2013 File Category: General Aviation X-Plane Version(s): X-Plane 9 & 10 Livery For: Click Here For Aircraft Polish Border Guard livery for PZL M20 "Mewa" ( Piper Seneca manufactured in Poland by WSK PZL Mielec in a limited series from the 1980s. ) A repaint for the Seneca II model by Carenado. ( XP9 and XP10 ) This is a repaint representing a "Mewa" in a Polish Border Guard livery , as far as possible within the restrictions of the texturemapping wich comes with this Carenado plane , wich isn`t that painter friendly. Nevertheless a gorgeous plane to fly and paint.
