Thanks gryshnak.
I take it we just unzip these directly into the 'Extra 300' folder?
Program Files -> Micro$oft Games -> Flight Simulator 9 -> Aircraft -> Extra300
Cheers,
TSC.

Yep, that's it. The zip file contains all the new textures, and an edited aircraft.cfg. Unzip it and go see what you were randomly painted with ;D

Glad you like it ;D
My painting technique was pretty basic - I just grabbed the next number off the list, asked myself "What colour haven't I used yet?" and literally flooded the whole bitmap with it! When I ran out of base colours I put a big stripe across the wings and tail, and ran through the colours again. You can blame Micro$oft for the mismatched pattern on the ailerons and tail, it all matches on the bitmap (but it does look pretty good like this anyway).
19 repaints in 3 hours, gotta be some sort of record!

Nice job, I'm Green with white stripes, I love it!

I changed my tail-number also, so now I have "MOBIUS" on the side of my airplane too.

But nobody else will have that modified file, so you're the only one who will see it...
Gryshnak ::)
who wonders how many people actually read the readme files
