Title: "Free liveries" from McPhat no more available!
Post by flo1981 on Jan 16th, 2014 at 6:55am
Hello,

The free liveries from McPhat, listed in captain sim support website, are no more available.
Each links is redirected to the mcPhat home page, but when you go under freeware, there isn't any free liveries for the 757!

I'm disappointed, because I'm looking for the American Airline repaint and cannot found one  :-/ :-/

I know they said they were re-doing their website and freeware was a low priority, but it's been awhile and I'm beginning to wonder if we'll see those again. I used to have them archived, but I think I lost them, and, since they're copyrighted, it would be improper for me to ask anyone to send a copy they might have to me. Oh well. I do have one of their payware sets, but would like to have the American Airlines. (I think that was one of them, usually is.) They're also missing their Super 80 freeware. Since they offer payware of both the CS and Super 80 airplanes, maybe the figured they were cutting into their own business. However, they have both freeware and payware for their other 767, so who knows?

Maybe we could ask them if they will let us share them with each other? I wonder if Dave Sweetman is still associated with McPhat. I have "LIKED" his Sweet Textures page on Facebook, maybe I can ask him (in private)?

I got a reply from Dave Sweetman:

I'm still in contact with the guys and I also have a copy of the American liveries. I'll ask Terrence what he plans to do with freeware stuff and if there are plans to re-host them.

Best regards

Dave


So let's hope they re-host them, or maybe they will allow me to share them with you. ;)

I found an old hard drive I had mounted as an external drive and it had an old FSX installation with all McPhat's stuff. So not only do I have my American Airlines paints, but the World Airliners package I bought that they wanted me to re-purchase when I tried to download it yesterday (!)

I have become a fanatic about archiving all things FSX now.

I've been doing that for a long time now, since I bought my first product for FS9, so FS9 stuff is included, but is not very much really. My Backup of all things FSX (and FS9) is 242GB! So I have a lot of stuff backed up there! ;D
