Paintkit Requests

Hello,

I'd like to request some additions to the paintkit, if it's possible? I'm far from an expert in painting and modelling for MSFS, but there's some things I've run into here that I can't find solutions to easily. As it stands, it doesn't seem possible to build a fresh livery without cannibalising some elements of existing liveries.

For example, just making a livery using the texture files the PSDs, putting them into the folder etc., when you get into the sim, the window surrounds disappear:

Not sure why the fallback model is missing these (assuming that's what it is).

There's also the matter of the window plugs, something that isn't in the Paintkit, the FBX doesn't seem to mention them, so this was a bit of a surprise too.

And then if you borrow models to fix the window frames, you get additional windows plugged, depending on the livery you borrowed from! There's an A380_PLUGS_ALBD file in some of the liveries, but there's 220 windows in there at my count, so determining which ones to paint is quite a faff!

For 'fictional' liveries like the one I'm making, I think the 'White' base would be fine to borrow these elements from, as it seems to be the most simple form of the plane, no extra plugs, everything is straightforward. But as it's part of the marketplace plane and not a Community download, thus encrypted, I can't find a way to get at the files to finish off my design. When the iniManager release arrives, I could probably do it, but that's a while away...

Requests:

• Would you be able to include the model files for the standard 'White' livery?

• Could you include a plugs texture, so we can paint these as needed?

• Could you also include the various placard/decal files? I'd like to be able to change the text colour in places so it's not red on red!

I'd love to get flying this beast as soon as I can get myself sorted! Any help would be appreciated (even if it's to tell me that I'm doing it all wrong!).
