Hi, i wasnt going to post but my re-texturing attempt kinda went up in flames  Undecided

could someone retexture the basic 172SP to look like the picture below

If someone could perhaps even make a new model (including things like wheel covers etc.) that would be great. The panels and such are exactly the same so nothing else needs to change.

I had my first lesson today in this craft and thought it would be cool to have the craft on my FSX aswell.

Many thanks.

Making changes to the model is only possible, if one has the core files (or source files, me forgetz the name! Cheesy ).

You could always check out Carenado's C172 Smiley

I can't help with the repainting but I know where that is. Hope you enjoyed your lesson. Do you live locally?

id rather not pay $26 for a model, i was kinda just looking for a retexture of the basic 172 thats already in FSX. The new model was just a shot in the dark really.

and yeah it was great fun, especially being only 16 Smiley and yes i live localy, like a 5-10minute drive

I would be willing to give this repaint a shot, if there is anyway possible you can get a direct side-on profile shot of it, that would help immensely. Wink

I might be able to help there. No promises & it might take a bit of finding.

That would be great!  Not completely necessary, but it really helps for lining things up exactly. Smiley

And also makes photo-real paints possible. Wink

Thanks! Smiley

I should have kept my big mouth shut. I found a couple but they're no better than the one you already have. Sorry.

It's not perfect, and the reg number is different, but I think this is the same plane: http://www.simviation.com/fsxprops21.htm

4th one down

"FSX Cessna C172SP in a N272SP, Aspen, Textures only.  This is a repaint of the default FSX Cessna C172SP in a N272SP Repaint (owned by Aspen Flying Club at Centennial Airport) By Anthony Celentano. 4.7MB"


I started FSX to look at my Cessna and there it was! I don't even remember downloading & installing it! Grin

Thanks for the additional pics RichardH! Smiley

First you get one with 50000 downloads, and now one with a messed up description! You're having some strange luck with your repaints here lately. Grin Wink

It's a really nice paint, and looks almost exactly like the paint scheme that he is after. Is it the same? And do you still have the files to where you could just change the reg. number to the one he is after?
