packaging your repainted plane

Postby Steve_Butka » Sat Jul 17, 2004 11:13 pm

I just wanted to know how to package up my paintkit when im finished.

for example, I'm making a POSKY Airbus a330-300 repaint.

after i'm finished, what's my next step?

thanks!

Bundle all the files with ReadMe's etc and upload it to Pete. More details http://www.simviation.com/upload.html. Its easier than it looks! I can post my templates if you wish. [glb]Please remeber to give credit to other designers.[/glb]

Another point to consider is what is POSKY's position on uploading repaints?


Also, to keep downloads small, you may want to just upload the textures, and include an aircraft.cfg text file with just the repaint specific lines.

I'd also recommend compressing the textures before upload using Martin Wright's DXTBmp utility.
