Some of the liveries of the B1900D and the B752 had been now reverted. They also do not apply anymore over new remapped textures.

One of your favorite aircraft:: The B707 by M. Krauss
Just to leave you a note phil
I already imported the liveries from the Database into the 707. But I wanted to outline how interesting of a case this is
1. It is one of your favorite aircraft. Yet, by default, IT HAS all of the liveries installed. In fact, many of its liveries had never been imported into the database. Clearly, Herr Krauss preference is to have them installed, instead of optional. Had you found this unfair before?
2. After passing over all of the liveries in the database, I found that most of these are legacy. They were useable for the previous map over I. Cunnigham aircraft, and many of this liveries are of no use to the current 707. I, off course, skip transferring these "now" useless liveries over
3. Only one livery was imported from the database since it was never added to the 707 model hosted in FGMEMBERs. http://liveries.flightgear.org/liveries.php?id=1243
I patched this, and now the Saudia Livery is also added. But obviously only 1 added livery has very small effect on the plane size.
A few days ago, Herr Krauss himself transferred the few new liveries he knew off over the model:
https://github.com/FGMEMBERS/707/commit ... 0c2a4fb5f0
Clearly, the 707 as a golden-standard for how aircraft should be made and distributed, had chosen installed liveries over non-installed liveries.
Just think about too
(although I do understand we reached an agreement over a few aircrafts having a "no-livery" branch)

I think the point being really, if you find another aircraft where a "no-livery" branch may be a good addition, just let me know
(or even feel free to create the branch and publish it )

Again, thank you for putting all the time in to do this.
IAHM-COL wrote in Fri May 08, 2015 6:26 pm:2. Some liveries, after unpacking bring unnecessary files (not pngs, or xmls). Those files are to say the least suspicious, and I remove them before pushing. (except cases where they are just readme files)

Best,

All liveries, not. Specially if one or two work well within a given aircraft I move on.
When I have to redirect a png file I test it.
I found several cases that it actually provided a fix (from not-working to working)
