Would you pay for skins?

I would also, but they would have to be quite inexpensive, say no more than US$ 1 per skin :)

I agree cost would factor in and if it was a custom skin like I would like one for the huey with the 48rqs’ patch on the nose, my last name on the pilot door being able to specifically design what’s what like tail number etc

Exactly, because we all like the outside view :music_whistling:

I would. There is some nice free one out there but not many

 

I would spend money right now on skins but not on modules

They are all Free, because without an Agreement w/ ED, it's not possible to sell them, or even protect them for that matter.

I would pay for nose art depicting my wife & her name-might make that 1070 upgrade a little easier to get :)

I was more thinking about ED selling skins, just another product to offer, like T-Shirts, hats

 

I was at Miramar air show this weekend, I'm sure if I could have wear a ED t-shirt at that event I would have met I'm sure some with the same interests

I would for something I specifically wanted, given there is a lot of work involved just looking at skins for aircraft that I have seen. :thumbup:

Control is an illusion which usually shatters at the least expected moment.

Gazelle Mini-gun version is endorphins with rotors. See above.

 

Currently rolling with a Asus Z390 Prime, 9600K, 32GB RAM, SSD, 2080Ti and Windows 10Pro, Rift CV1. bu0836x and Scratch Built Pedals, Collective and Cyclic.

No, some of the modules don't come with enough skins as it is. I don't think we need to make it worse lol.

 

I'm pretty sure the Gazelle was operated by 26 different countries for example, but we got like 5 or 6 skins representing different countries in the module, including a fictional user. Nobody has made skins for the other countries that weren't included either, which is bizarre also.

 

But I don't get it, your saying there's not enough skins in different modules and yet against creating more at a price?

As a skin maker who contributed with 50+ skins or more I say no. The more people use a skin the better, let's not monetize it, as others have said. I've spent hundreds of hours on these skins, the only reward being kind feedback from users and seeing them in screenshots and videos - and this is all I wish for. Optional donations could maybe work, but it's currently against the agreement, so that's not up for discussion. I'm just glad we have the texture templates and we can create whatever paintjob we wish. I could never create a skin without those.
