I did see the links from above.I did download those.I have the paints in a temp folder.

Those paints appear to be for a DC-3 Float version plane
The paint .cfg entry info doesn't say amphibian in the text info.So I'd be thinking there should be an MM paint for the Float DC-3 version,and a paint for the amphibian version,unless the paint I downloaded will work for either the float or amphibian DC-3?.

Jeff.

Since I have the  MAAMSim XC-47c amphibian.I installed the MM Paint for it.It did work out.Since there was a problem with the windshields being opaque off-white.I copied the windshield texture files,from the MAAMSim XC-47C main texture folder,and copied them to the MM amphibian  texture folder.That took care of the windshield issue.
It looks pretty good for being an FS9 paint.Now all I have to do is find the shockwave lights .cfg entries to add to it etc.

Great.  I'm glad the windshields were easier for you.  Take some pictures to post when you get it all together with the lights, etc. ;)

She can carry 72,000 lbs. of cargo.  It takes BIG floats to keep 'er on the top of the water.  ;)

Jeff,
I want a couple of those DC-3's that can lift twice as much cargo as their maximum gross weight.
DC-3A (29,199lbs)
C-47 (31,000lbs)
Navy R4D-8 (31,000lbs when I flew them back in the day)
Even the turbo prop Bassler has a GW of under 29,000lbs.
Add the Edo floats and cargo capacity drops even more.
 8)
Later,

Spud
