Since Sept I upgraded my PC to a beast (sourcing a 3090 was a nightmare!) and had some trouble with PhotoShop which is now resolved.  In between all that I was juggling crazy work commitments but things are smoothing out now :)

Work is continuing on the enhanced A321 kit.  We are hoping to get it out and ready for release sometime this month (if all goes according to plan!)

Ignore the overly obvious rivets; they are darker to use as reference while working on the kit (4K res image).

Yup 319 is only partially released, the fuselage needs PBR treatment :)

Few liveries are waiting :

For all experiencing issues with our kit liveries displaying a black nav light assembly since the FSL v5.0.1.126 update 15/12/2020 described here:

The A319 and A320 custom kit common file downloads have been updated to correct the issue and the fix is available here (overwrite existing files if already installed):

Finished the A319 PBR conversion today and thought I'd start converting my old A319 liveries over.  Just a little sneak peek :)@Hugo Bicho did a great job on the albedos!

WIP conversion so ignore the red antenna and incorrect nose gear rego placement

I also decided to do the A320 while I'm at it. Special thanks to @paobas for help with the Italian translation of the cargo door decals :)

Cheers

Hi everyone,

I've just uploaded a new version of the common files of the 319. This version brings compatibility with our paintkit fuselage.

If you had already installed these files before, please re-install them.

Our liveries teased above will follow very soon !

@Daniel Du Preez, @Hugo Bicho and @John Tavendale, guys you really outdid yourselves again. Thanks again for your amazing repaints and all the work which went into designing the custom paintkit. Overall, this really makes the A32X family shines more than ever. ;)

Most of the tricky geometry is now sorted but there's still more to be done!  Final bits are sorting out the correct pattern alignment of the blue bits by the L4 and R4 doors then she's ready waiting normal maps and PBR finalisation :)

And another WIP (conversion of my previous AFL A321).  Note the pylons are shining due to a model bug.  Hugo reported it already.2021-1-16_16-19-45-888.thumb.png.9eabfb9f30dfaa4c423be3642dedebff.png

Done and needing SL now.  Will need to adjust the blue lines on the wingbox area once the model is available to match IRL frame.

Hello everyone,

I've released the A321 common files ! Then you probably know what that means, our updated liveries are on their way :D !
