No, sorry. I don't own this program.

I did PSD file with no folders though, and it should be readable by Paint Shop Pro. It will be available later today.

Another nice straight-forward paint kit; thank you. I'm thinking about the possibilities already. :wink:

Thanks so much for including an early psd version of the Paintkit for those of us who have been spending money on A2A models and not so much on editing software!

Thanks

Corel Paint Shop Pro works, but only on version X6 or X7 64bit, not with 32bit. I used to have the same issue thinking I would have to buy Photoshop CC, but I found a cheaper alternative with Paint Shop Pro X7. Works fine here.

Can anybody of you, guys, reminds me what the XXXX_s.dds texture file does (as compared to the XXXX_t.dds) ? One of the Comanche texture sets have it but the others not.

All the repaints has _s texture. It's a specular map, here it's explained better than I would do that:

http://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtop ... 98&t=45108

If there is no _s texture in the livery folder, the default specular map is used - it's in the shared 'texture' folder instead. I did it this way to lower the amount of disc space used. If you have to edit the specular map too just put it together with the livery, it will have higher priority than default one from the 'texture' folder.
