Sorry for the slow reply , I have been busy repainting the 737-800 v4 in our VA colors and log all this week and just finished repainting it . Most of my issues repainting that aircraft I just finished I figured out on my own but to get back to the issue working with Xplane stock 747-400 I think it is the purple airlines that is included with Xplane 9 what I'm see and working with is a texture file where the airliner looks sort squeezed looking and its very hard to repaint atlease for me it is. Thats why I decided to use the airliner by Benedikt Stratmann , his plane was easy to repaint except when I started trying to repaint and add the stripping along the fuselage that was tricky . I ended up having to make a paper template and laying that over the texture files to match both sides of the aircraft up , not sure if that was the correct way of doing it but it seemed to worked for me . Right now the aircraft I repainted for my upcoming Pinellas Virtual airline video is ready for flight , I started creating some new music to go with this new video I'm working on . The whole video project I hope will be ready for youtube in the next four weeks , thanks for the support sorry for my slow reply but this sircraft I'm using and repainted worked out good for me it was the Xplane stock 747-400 that I was having issues with . Cheers ! pilotman

I'm polishing my credit card up now , thanks Cameron . Can't wait for its arrival when Santa gets here , I'm ready ! Pilotman

Wow I can't wait to when XPlane 10 is out , sales will be blow Microsoft out of the water this Christmas ! I love it , I need to pull my new AMD computer parts out of my closit and start building it before Xplane 10 comes out this Christmas . Stunning flightsim and graphics , I can see I'm going to have to invest in a good high end graphics card after I build my new rig to get the graphics in this video . I just wonder what the cost is going to be for the new XPlane 10 , whatever it is I'm buying it . Poor FSX users will have to eat their hearts out or dump FSX and buy XPlane 10 . Nice video !

Thanks for watching ,from a newbie helicopter xplane pilot . Pilotman

Hi I'm not sure if posting here is the place to post my question but I can't figure out how to repaint correctly the PNG files for the aircraft in Xplane 9.70 . Do those files need to be converted over to a different version before you start repainting your aircraft ? I wanted to repaint the B747-400 United made by XPlane one of their stock airliners in Xplane 9 , when you look at the file the plane looks out of shape to repaint . I'm using Paint Shop Pro 8 , I have had it for years so its old but still works with PNG files and other paint texture files . Right now all I'm trying to do is get the file setup in Paint Shop Pro for repainting so it looks like a full size aircraft to repaint . If anyone can help me get started that would be great because I'm not a professional XPlane repainter. Thanks I'll checkback later . Pilotman

Thanks Cameron for the support getting plugged in , the lights are on here for sure . I think you know what I'm talking about as in a better place for xplane support . Cheers !Pilotman
