Hey FlightCast Listeners!

Our next guest on FlightCast is @Ryan_Vince, who is a livery and texture editor for Infinite Flight, as well as a real world ramp service agent, and ground security coordinator and station trainer for Trego Dugan Aviation, serving primarily Frontier flights.

Ask your questions here. I’m specifically interested in Infinite Flight related questions, but ask whatever you like. I’ll work in as many as we have time for.

Thanks!
Jay

When creating a livery, how do you get such an accurate layout of the details on aircraft, specifically in the more complicated liveries?

This should be interesting!

My question is, do you decide on what liveries get added, and how hard was it for you to implement 4K textures compared to the regular textures?

First congrats on getting the liveries so amazing!
My Questions:

  • What liveries have been the hardest/easiest to edit?

  • Have there been any liveries that you would like to see in infinite flight but for some reason you weren’t allowed?

  • How did you start editing the liveries for IF?

I have a question:

How/Why did you start creating liveries for the planes in Infinite Flight?

  1. What has been your favourite to design/edit and why?

  2. Is there any particular lively/aircraft combo (irl & IF) that you think looks the best?
