Airbus A320 Painting Problem

#1 Post by MKY661 »

Hello this might seem like a silly question but I've just downloaded the Airbus A320 paint kit for FSX and I was just wondering how do you change the image of the ModelConverterX with the Southwest plane on to the actual image showing the plane all white? Also I'm using Paint.NET not Photoshop :)

Thanks everyone :)

As far as I know Paint.Net supports layers.
Therefore you should be able to turn them off or delete them in the layers list.
However, you should read through all of them first. They're very helpful and prevent silly mistakes ;)

Sorry, I never worked with Paint.Net, only Gimp and Photoshop.

I don't know if this works, but you might want to try this PSD plugin for Paint.Net:

You can get a fully functional free Photoshop CS2 here:

Learn to use PS, this and many paint kits were made for it.

That Photshoop link did not work on my computer by the way. Wouldn't open any files.

Only small problem now is how do you get to the Alpha Channel and edit it :)

Thanks for all your help :)

Download Gimp2. You can easily view and edit the Alpha there.

Just checked the link by installing CS2 with it on my laptop and opened the PK with it perfectly.
I strongly urge you to use PS as the paint kit was meant to be used with it.
