I have it too and have used it quite a bit now....but like Creator said there are limitations to it especially when it comes to detail. It's great for making modifications to existing stuff though, like personalising regos etc......

Here's a fictional repaint I created for the Carenado C206 using FS Repaint and a blank white texture set.....by keeping most of the aircraft white I didn't lose too much of the detail and the result isn't bad.





The program on its own is quite basic but it is enough for my needs.

Thanks for your replies..........i am having a problem getting going because each time I go to start the programme
I get a Fatal error msg that say "XX" is not a valid integer value. The programme will be terminated.
And it does and at the moment I am awaiting a reply from Abacus!
Good repainys by the way

I have not come across that problem...have you tried re-installing the program?

Yes, I've un-installed and re-installed about 6 times now and still get the same
message. I have contacted Abacus on three occasions but no reply so far!
I have via a couple of trusted forums got to the point where the aircraft list to the left opens up but is
not useable and this error message then pops up so obviously something is not quite right somewhere?

Windows Defender broke FSRepaint at one time.
You up-to-date with Windows?

Hi Charl....yes all up to date, the most annoying part is that I cannot get anyone at Abacus to respond!
