This is a very good idea! You got my vote.
In order to make a livery work, you also really need access to the mesh files to try it out before you submit it. Giving out the source files to all the planes would lead to no good.
I just voted, it would be an excellent opportunity for those who are good in coding (like me) to do new liveries. It sure will take time and hard work but it’ll be worth it. I really hope the team will add it soon.

This is an amazing idea! It could work in the same way the airport editing team works. A group of volunteers design real-world liveries, thus allowing for more variety within the app. And every once in a while, an update is sent. We could also have the option to download and delete them to save storage space on the device.
As a person who regularly designs liveries, this is something I would love to see in the future. VOTED! 👍

Amazing idea though It should be like airport editing for liveries. For this you’ll need quality control and right now FDS can do that as it is all in house. As soon as it becomes open source you pretty much loose the quality control their will still be good liveries that people make but there will also be a big junk pile
As long as people add real airline liveries, it would be good.
Bumping this amazing request up!
@IceBlue explained possible problems about this request and i agree too. This will bring many problems within, so we should let this feature to devs. Current status of liveries is good enough. I do never vote for it. Also i am opening the title and the comment is “i am bumping this up!”. Yeah yeah very good comment. I can understand everything, thanks…
I do agree as well at this point. I did remove my vote for this request a while and I no longer support it. It’s kept open because it has quite a few votes already.
The devs are doing a great job, we have plenty of liveries and it’s working fine as it is 😊

Well yes but like I have said before it could relieve work off the developers and then they can focus on more things to do like building planes, and testing which like X-Plane. Xplane has multiple companies working for hem and by adding this is would add a lot more liveries because multiple people would be working on different ones at the same time and so then we could have more liveries and the developers can focus on more stuff likes bugs clouds and other features this has my vote for sure

All I’m saying is that if this happens that means there are more people to help so like the developers don’t have to worry about liveries and can focus on more things that could be worked on
What about the airport editing team then?
If you change it by livery editing team, there’s no question about doing someone’s job

I don’t know but this is basically hiring crew which would Help us gain more liveries in the game

And the point of a livery team would be to make liveries and it would help the devs

Haha yup, sounds about right 😂
Would you rather not have this and less liveries or have this and more liveries which gives more of a variety and selection you tell me

Just read this, it makes a lot of sense.
Well if you won’t help I bet others will to make more liveries for us get the credit and now we have a larger selection and variety the template states that people would make liveries then send them to a special doc or somewhat and testing shall began and then developers don’t have to wrong about livery making it is really simple I’d you think about it you make it send it test it then it’s done

You’re wrong there, go watch a timelapse of someone editing an airport (most airports comes as just a runway and a taxiway by the way) and the one of someone making a livery.
