# Livery Conventions
* You can find the paintkits for each variant in the respective **src/QX00/Images/Liveries/** folder as **qX00-liveries.svg**  
* To make maintenance easier and keep the repository size low, liveries should be made using Inkscape and saved as a group in the corresponding .svg file
* Each paintkit file includes the following groups/elements:
	* Reference: A UV-Map exported from Blender
	* general.*: Objects that are normally present on every livery
		* general.vector: vector objects, such as door frame markings, texture for the propellers etc.
		* general.raster: mostly ambient occlusion, but also wheel texture etc.
* To export your livery, make sure to enable _only_ 
	* your livery
	* general.vector
	* general.raster  
	then use "Export as PNG" and save it under ICAO.png in the correct livery folder (Models/Liveries/qX00-jsb/)
* Before submitting the changed .svg file, please remove the guidelines you created for the livery, but keep the guidelines that were there before
* **qX00-general.xcf** normally doesn't need to be altered in any way, it only is the source file for general.raster
