Description
The Platzer Kiebitz is an ultralight, single-engine, tandem-two-seater biplane, homebuilt. Michaël Platzer is the designer and commercializes the plans.
Its construction is made of aluminum tubes for the fuselage and wood for the wing ribs. The entire aircraft is covered in fabric.
This model was created in Blender using the MSFS 2020 SDK. It is fully animated, and the main cockpit controls are functional.
The flight model was developed with the help of the real pilot and owner of this aircraft.
A checklist is available in MSFS; for a cold start, Ctrl+E does not work; you must follow the checklist.
A paint kit folder, including the main textures in .psd format, will allow you to customize your aircraft.
You will find more information about the Kiebitz in the "web links" file as well as in the "history" file.

just take your time. My livery was approved just yesterday.
Kind regards,

However, you should check the Paint Kit folder because I've changed some texture locations.
Good luck, and keep me posted.

BTW I forgot to mention that your psd files are actually in gimp format and cannot be loaded directly in photoshop (not a real pronblem of course).
Normally I just paint directly on the model within blender after having applied all the textures. Similar to the paintkit I have uploaded here for the DA62.
EDIT: So I have updated my model here. As expected my livery is a bit cluttered now - so will have to update this also. Will do so asap.
Finally thanks for your quick action!

I just uploaded a new version of my livery which matches your changes. From what I have seen most things are okay now.
So again many thanks for fixing this!
Cheers,

Cool.
I tried to make some useful screenshots.
I strarted with importing the gltf right into blender to make sure everything is as modeled by you.
Then I just selected an object and painted with some different colors.
- First shows rear elevators with some defects on the edges
- Second shows what happens if you paint on the body (same for the other side): When you paint on the front bow (1) the paint leaks to (2)
- Third and fourth show material issues with the haubans. front left has correct matereial - the others not.
- Second one also shows the face selected which had also some troubles when painting elsewhere (did not find out where exactly - but it occured to me that some paint from elsewhere leaked to that face).
Hope that helps and many thanks for the action!
Cheers,
Stephan

I downloaded your modification and indeed, I spotted the bugs.
Now I just have to get to work.
It's going to take some time because I need to create a new project folder in the SDK after fixing the bugs.

if you look into my Red Bull livery for the plane you will notice that the mapping for the cable holders on the body is misplaced. Either the objects are hotrizontally misplaced or the mapping is wrong.
They are mapped to place a bit mor to the back - so what should be blue has parts of the Red Bull text logo.
Maybe you could fix this also.
Thanks!

I currently work on a livery for it and stumbled across material issues:
On the left side in the front area there is a big triangle having the wrong material or uv-mapping causing strange artefacts when painting in blender. Similar is going on for the back elevator edges (backfacing) wher I see a lot of faces not being actually affected by a paintbrush.
Third thing is that only the front left pillar of the four between the wing decks has the correct myterial applied the others fall back to gltfValidator material.
I am sure thosevare no importer issues as resulting effects actually shows up within the sim. Would be cool if you could fix those issues on your end.
Of course I raise my stars to 5 when this is fixed ;)
Kind regards,
stephan

Thank you for your feedback. Could you send me images of the defects so I can correct them? I just need a preview of the untextured areas.
