User Files Livery Requests

Sniper_1-1 I've decided to take on the request and make some have glass Colorado skins. They'll probably be finished in a couple weeks. I'll make a post in the F-16 livery sub forum when I'm about to upload them so stay tuned.

Please add more AFRC liveries, like the 93FS Makos for example to the core. Thanks!

This is not a bug, but still a "problem" that dampens the perceived quality of the module.

The quality of the official USAF liveries is not great, both aesthetically (i accept, that this is partly on the USAF, not ED) and technically (i'm not an texture artist, so can't put my fingers on it, but subjectively the material don't look quite right).

I think my concerns get somewhat legitimated by ED's own PR team, who NEVER use any of the official liveries in their trailers and social media posts. From what i can tell, they mostly use user-made USAF liveries. Even @Wags's youtube videos often use community skins for -i think- obvious reasons.

From what i can tell, this is not the case with any other ED module. I hope the official livery selection can be revisited and improved where necessary.

There is/was an initiative by ED to add liveries for the US and some other countries a little over a year ago. Sadly they've gone radio silent on this.

@NineLine Did you merge those threads? If you thought my "bug report" was not objective enough, you could just have moved it to the wishlist section.
My post was mainly about the quality of the texture/material work of official liveries, not necessarily about having more liveries and not at all about user liveries.

F-16N VF-126 would be awesome!

I have started this paint this morning

Germany, Hahn Air base 50th TFW

I think these would be fitting for the upcoming Germany Cold war map.
