I just purchased the realflight g3. Man I love it. I love being able to tweak and mess with EVERYTHING. However I noticed on the real flight site, you can download color schemes. I did, and I like them alot, but I would like to make my own. Do I need a special program or something?

Thanks

a photo editing program like photoshop or various other will let you make you own scheme. i test my schemes here and then i know if i like it in the air. all of the birds i fly are on my sim.

how do you bring it up in the photo shop?

i think, go to photoshop, open your aircraft folder, and open the tga file

The first step is to create a duplicate of an existing colorscheme so you can edit it. Do this either by copying one of the schemes you downloaded, or in G3 you can click "Aircraft->Save Color Scheme As." Then edit that duplicate tga. To test your work, open the aircraft editor and click "Options->Reload ColorScheme." Also click "Options->Show Wireframe" to see the color better.
