==A | ==A note to those who wish to make a livery== | ||
If | If your livery is likely to be edited by other ysers, consider making a paintkit in addition to your livery. | ||
A paintkit is where you create a blank livery which shows only constructional elements like bolts, rivets, windows, doors and panels. This is done so any other users looking to create their own livery can make a realistic looking livery with these construction elements, without having to redraw them or trying to avoid painting over them. This makes the process of creating a livery a more fun and less stressful task. | |||
Paintkits are usually provided within the aircraft's <tt>Models/</tt> directory and/or at [http://liveries.flightgear.org/paintkits.php the livery database]. | |||
